Line 25:
** All just a [[Feghoot]] for "Annie-May, my anemone enemy".
* In the ''[[Heathcliff]]'' comic, it's never explained why the protagonist's father is in prison (which he's always breaking out of) although the [[Heathcliff and The Catillac Cats|animated adaptation]] suggests it's for far worse crimes than anything his son does.
* ''[[Peanuts]]'':
** Exactly how it went between Snoopy and the Head Beagle when Snoopy was charged with "not pursuing his monthly quota of rabbits" was never shown. All Snoopy said was "fortunately, [[Reasonable Authority Figure|the Head Beagle was very understanding]]".
** Speaking of which, the whole "Thompson is in Trouble" [[Story Arc]] was one Noodle Incident after another. It started with Snoopy getting a coded message from the Head Beagle saying that [[Arc Words|"Thompson is in trouble"]], with Snoopy recognizing the name instantly and remembering a past incident with "that stupid Thompson" that "almost got us all killed". (It's only confirmed later that Thompson is another beagle, but one can only guess what happened the last time, although Snoopy complains through the whole story that Thompson would "never listen to advice" and other such faults.) Snoopy leaves quickly to find this Thompson, does some investigating, questions a waitress in a restaurant "full of shady types" (who remembers Thompson), gets lost in the rain, and finds Thompson, [[You Are Too Late|but he's too late]]. The readers find out in the next strip where Snoopy writes his report to the Head Beagle that he had witnessed Thompson try to deal with ten-thousand rabbits by himself, and was presumably killed. (Again, it is not revealed why.) In the last strip of the arc Charlie Brown asks Snoopy if he thinks he'll ever know what happened, and all Snoopy can say is that [[An Offer You Can't Refuse|"Those rabbits gave him an offer he couldn't refuse!"]]
