  • In the films, why do they keep reloading Gadget with toothpaste guns and bubblegum launchers? And why doesn't the goop LOOK LIKE toothpaste or bubblegum?
    • Obviously it is super advanced toxic chemicals. But Gadget is against killing so they just tell him its toothpaste and gum.
    • Or super-advanced non-lethal riot control chemicals, called Toothpaste and Bubblegum for beration purposes.
  • Why doesn't Gadget recognize Scolex from the night Dr. Bradford was killed?
    • Perhaps Officer Brown couldn't see Scolex very well? For one thing he spent much of their encounter in an upside-down car, plus all we saw of him in that scene was his hand (and some of his face), the rest of him was framed in shadow.
