| 4 | * Given the timing during the "demonstration" at the factory, the trick-or-treaters at the end were probably starting to die just as Challis' screams "STOP IITTTTT!!" the final time over the phone. |
| 5 | * Even countless nearby kids who did not have Silver Shamrock masks were also certainly killed. Considering Little Buddy's parents were killed by the resulting swarm of vermin and vipers, children investigating or trying to help their friends would have been doomed as well. |
| 6 | * Buddy's head dissolving into the insects and snakes may have just been ''one variety'' of death. Perhaps the Witch and Skull masks would cause other forms of gruesome demise... perhaps even every mask would bring forward a different death. Though Marge's misfire would seemingly indicate bugs and snakes are the primary means of death. |
| 7 | * As Buddy watched his son die thanks to the mask, chances are he was horrified both from his only child dying and realizing he sold so many of those things to children everywhere in America (meaning he was indirectly responsible for a chunk of the people who would die thanks to Cochran's "prank."). |

| 9 | * The Silver Shamrock masks come as the oddly specific trio of witch, skull, and Jack-O-Lantern. Given the creator's background, this could be because they represent the most important aspects of Samhain to him: Witchcraft and the supernatural (the Witch), death and sacrifice (The Skull), and the lighting of sacred lanterns (The Jack-O-Lantern). |
| 10 | * Conal Cochran has a reputation as a great jokester, but he doesn't seem that way at all in person. He seems like a thoroughly conventional and benevolent businessman. Later, he drops the facade when talking about the "prank" and we see he is in deadly earnest about murder...so it's possible his genuine idea of a "prank" is not at all harmless fun but instead of death and mayhem. |
| 11 | * Cochran is so passionate about pranks that he wants to play the biggest, deadliest prank of all time on the children of the United States...and that's exactly why he applauds Challis in the end. It's not simply because he's been "beaten." It's because Challis has ''out-pranked'' the ''prank-master'', thus earning his respect. |
