* In a very subtle detail at the end where Pomni's nightmare from the beginning of the episode replays, everyone in the group is seen grabbing her hand to save her except Jax's. This all but heavily implies that Pomni doesn't consider Jax a friend due to his {{Jerkass}} behavior and wouldn't expect him to have her back like the others.

This all but heavily implies that Pomni doesn't consider Jax a friend due to his {{Jerkass}} behavior and wouldn't expect him to have her back like the others. And considering his borderline sociopathic actions in this episode alone, she's probably ''right''.

*To pour salt into the wound of both tragic events in this episode, GLITCH released a [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCn_FAXem2-e3HQvmK-mOH4g/community?lb=UgkxbxWk8p3WG2kAQg8V2_j2d6PKbDD4Ksgn picture of the crew enjoying some sweets]] to celebrate the episode doing so well...and in the background, Pomni is looking over a funeral picture of ''Gummigoo'', right next to Kaufmo's. And it's very easy to tell from her posing that she is pretty miserable. Sure, he was an NPC...but he was real enough to her.

** This is even more notable because Pomni still imagines ''Gangle's'' hand (or ribbon). Pomni literally hasn't shared a ''single conversation'' with Gangle yet, but she'd rather entrust her life to somebody who is effectively a total stranger than someone like Jax. Granted, Gangle is ''nothing'' like Jax and doesn't have a mean bone in her body, but again, she and Pomni have yet to properly communicate, so the point still stands.

* Jax antagonising and bullying Gangle is a lot more harsher than in the pilot, pressuring her to drive recklessly whilst on pursuit of Gummigoo without any consideration about Pomni's safety. He even points out Gangle's [[ExtremeDoormat submissive nature to her in order to get her to comply]]. Then later just as they are sinking in a chocolate lake after getting separated from Pomni, Jax does ''not'' hesitate to [[KickTheDog pin the blame on Gangle]], despite the fact that [[NeverMyFault HE forced her to drive the truck in the first place.]]
