| 2 | * Russian matryoshka nesting dolls contain many layers, but each layer underneath is smaller and contains less detail in the artwork. Likewise, each loop shows Nadia's world having less detail, especially as [[spoiler:fish, mirrors, and even people start disappearing]]. |

| 4 | * When Nadia first comes out of the bathroom, she mentions to Maxine that she turned 36 a couple of minutes ago. That means that every time she resets, it is at the exact moment she turns 36. |

| 6 | * In one of Mike’s early scenes during the second time skip, he quotes John Updike. [[spoiler: This is what he and Beatrice were discussing for her dissertation, while also hooking up.]] |

| 8 | * [[spoiler: Alan]]’s theory that the time loop is because someone is a “bad person” is technically correct just not in the way he envisioned. Both [[spoiler: he and Nadia]] have specific personality flaws that are self-destructive, they just don’t know how to change them. |

| 10 | * In the second season, Nadia begins to have visions of insects that manifest seemingly out if thin air - this results in her reflexively striking at a mirror, shattering it. This parallel to her mother's actions during her childhood gains more context when you take into account how Nadia [[spoiler: now inhabits the body of her mother in this timeline]]. She discovers the appearance [[spoiler: of track marks on her body, indicating her needle use.]] A typical manifestation of intravenous drug withdrawals is hallucinated visuals or sensations of crawling insects, paranoia and intense emotional dysregulation, so it would make sense that Lanora is in fact [[spoiler: smashing the mirrors out of fear and a paranoid mind]] rather than dysmorphia as [[spoiler: Nadia's]] stated body image issues might suggest. |

| 13 | * If [[spoiler: Nadia and Alan die at the same time]], then what exactly happened in [[spoiler: his relatively uneventful loop reset]] when she died 4 times in a row falling down the stairs within a minute or two of the loop beginning? |
