Line 4:
* Before the present KND was founded by Numbuh Zero, Grandfather ruled the world. [[Evil Overlord|Considering]] ''[[Complete Monster|how]]'' [[Abusive Parent|he]] [[Selfish Evil|ruled]] [[Crapsack World|the world]], the distrust of the KND towards adults suddenly becomes far more justified.
* Numbuh 4, as his number designates, is [[Four Is Death|the unluckiest member of Sector V]]. However, add [[Rule of Three|Numbuh 3]] into the figurative equation and you have [[Lucky Seven|7]], widely considered the luckiest number. Even their codenames [[Ship Tease|tease]] these two.
* This is one for ''[[Doctor Who (TV)|Doctor Who]]'' fans: We first hear of [[Captain Ersatz|Doctor Time-Space Continuem]] in the 2004 episode "Operation: U.N.C.O.O.L.", with the kids watching what's likely a fictional counterpart to the Classic Series, which, given the KND's disdain for "old" and "nerdy" things, can explain why they're not really having fun. The next time we hear of the show again is in 2007 ("Operation: G.I.R.L.F.R.I.E.N.D."), during the height of the [[David Tennant]] era. Which might be why [[Fan Girl|Numbuh 362's]] taken a liking to it...
* During the first season of ''[[Codename Kids Next Door (Animation)|Codename Kids Next Door]]'', having the [[Creepy Child|Delightful Children]] show up in every episode like some sort of [[Mandatory Line]] was something that bothered me at first, as many of their appearances were irrelevant and seemed forced. After thinking about it recently, it hit me: that was the point! Their repeated appearances were meant to get the audience jaded enough so that by the time they did do something important (picking up the age changer), no one would suspect it was a [[Chekhov's Gun]]! (This was before the audience was aware of how tight the show's continuity would be.)
* Another KND-related one, this one related to a ''very'' late series spoiler: I was recently wondering where there was an earlier hint of {{spoiler|Chad's ''true'' allegiance (read: with the KND)}}. Apparently somebody said that there was one in {{spoiler|"Operation E.L.E.C.T.I.O.N.S.", when Chad and the high school kid were discussing how the high school were about to deal Gallager a [[Curb Stomp Battle]] and apparently Chad got worried}}. I checked the scene in question: {{spoiler|Chad's evil face ''does'' go away, but he's still smiling}}. So I eventually decided to leave the subject, then just now I thought about some RL issues of mine, and then somehow I thought of this: {{spoiler|why didn't Chad just avoid ''any'' interaction with Nigel so that Chad would have an easier time trying to launch the Moonbase into the sun without being detected until it was too late, hanging the KND out to dry?}} There's your hint: right at the beginning of the whole issue.
Line 35:
** How about the fact that {{spoiler|Father is actively trying to KILL HIS OWN NEPHEW on a daily basis?}}
** Lizzie is shown to be seriously unstable sometimes and even tried to MURDER Sector V for getting in the way of her and Numbuh 1 (who she tried to borderline mind rape). ''We never see or hear from her family members.'' Could she be the KND universe's [[Mirai Nikki|Yuno Gasai]]?
*** Something else involving Lizzie: in one episode, [[It Makes Sense in Context|Numbuh 4 has to dress up as Numbuh 1 in order to distract her]]. He returns later, dirty, with [[Covered in Kisses|kisses on his face]], ''his clothing torn'', and a look of horror on his face. It's ''far'' [[Victim Falls For Rapist|less]] [[Double Standard Rape (Female On Male)|funny]] [[Black Comedy Rape|seeing it as a teenager]].
** The [[Mind Control Device|Boyfriend Helmet]] and all the pain it caused. It was in a magazine ad. Which means it's ''mass produced''. [[False Reassurance|Sweet dreams.]]
** More like a Fridge [[Tear Jerker]], but Leona is 350 years old and is still physically and probably mentally 10. Everybody she knew and loved are looong dead. ''A'' (technically} ''little girl outlived all her relatives''.
