| 2 | * In a cutscene of "[=McKenzie=] Airbase Interior" from ''2'', one particular U.S. airforce soldier helps Lian escape by unlocking a window without sounding the alarm, as he has "took an oath to uphold the law". Based on the Enlistment Oath, all members of the U.S. armed forces must “preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Hence, the pledge clearly states that all soldiers must abide by constitutional laws and regulations. Soldiers can refuse a direct order if the said order is unlawful or if it violates the Uniform Code of Military Justice. With that being said, the airforce soldier has his reasons to help Lian, as the Agency operatives are impersonating FEMA and actively trying to have Lian killed, both of which do not follow the protocols. Also, even if Lian is really a wanted criminal, she deserves a fair trial instead of an assassination in a hospital as it is her civil right. |

| 5 | * [[spoiler:Jason Chance]] is killed by being knocked back into the tail rotors of a helicopter with an UAS-12 while wearing full bulletproof body armor, yet, when Gabe Logan is shot by an UAS-12 during normal gameplay, he manages to stand completely still despite only wearing a basic flak jacket. How does he do that? |
| 6 | ** Simple, he's just ''that'' [[BadassNormal badass]]. |
| 7 | * Why would killing Foreman Jones in ''Syphon Filter 3'' after interrogating him result in a truck suddenly trying to ram Mujari? Was it some kind of automatic countermeasure set by Jones just in case he was killed, or did someone drive the truck? The game made no explanation about this. |
| 8 | ** It's likely that Jones was holding some form of [[DeadMansSwitch Dead man's Switch]]. |
| 9 | * In "Docks Final Assault", if Gabe Logan either kills or ditches Nigel before finding the last containment truck, Nigel will say "Curse you, Logan!" as his final words. Why did Nigel say something like that? Nigel is a double agent, so by norm he should've expected some betrayals since he makes a living by deceiving and betraying people. |
| 10 | * It is weird and almost funny how Jonathan Phagan's attempts of bribing everyone he meets always end in failure. We can understand how a stoic agent like Gabe and a nutcase like Mara cannot be bribed into not killing or capturing him, but why would it not work with anyone else? |

| 13 | * One cutscene of "Agency Bio-Lab" level in ''2'' shows Ramirez asking an agency operative for help because he is feeling sick. Many fans in the past joked about him getting a flu because he spent hours (if not days) in Rocky Mountains during a cold temperature while wearing a tee shirt. But the horror realization comes from the agency operative's harsh reply, telling Ramirez to shut up that soon he won't have to worry about anything. It is possible that Ramirez is also infected with Syphon Filter virus, and Gabe does not know about it. |
