Line 3:
== 'Current' Gadget (robot) contains the uploaded mind of 'Original' Gadget (Human) ==
 
Unfortunately either due to some problem with the upload process or the trauma of waking up as a machine caused Current gadget to have a mental breakdown. Only though installing numerous mental blocks and false memories (damaging his intelligence in the process)could he function again. He is now kept due to his strange effectiveness and to take care of Penny, who probably lost her parents to MAD. Original Gadget is either dead or a vegetable. Those who know keep quiet to honour original Gadget's memory.
 
== Gadget was once a really intelligent cop (not a [[Cowboy Cop]]); whatever gave him more artificial body parts than [[RoboCop]] also affected his IQ. ==
Line 53:
It may be that Quimby got sick of his incompetent subordinate and created M.A.D. for the ''sole purpose'' of killing Gadget, inspired by [[The Pink Panther|Inspector Clouseau's]] boss. It may be that Quimby has multiple personalities.
* Alternately, see ''MAD is a front operation,'' below.
** Not really a [[Paper-Thin Disguise|WMG]]. At the end of the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVrpMJCjuM0 closing credits], Quimby/Klaw ''walks right up to Gadget'' and tell him, [[Refuge in Audacity|to his face]], that he’ll get him "next time."
** When Penny and Brain walks up he's giving them a shifty look.
*** However, there's an episode where we see Dr. Claw holing Quimby hostage with both of them talking to each other.
Line 110:
 
== Penny is currently working for the Los Angeles division of the agency under an assumed name. ==
The same world-wide organization designed for human protection would, [[Totally Spies!|having seen the success they achieved training Penny to become a super-spy]], immediately repeat the experiment with two other young women who they've been tracking. All they need do is give Penny an assumed name, insert her into Beverly Hills and send her group up against colorful lunatic villains.
 
 
Line 126:
 
== The entire show is Inspector Gadget's [[Dying Dream]]. ==
Gravely wounded in the line of duty, he volunteered for an experimental cyborg conversion project—which failed. He died on the operating table.
 
== Inspector Gadget used to be Maxwell Smart. ==
Line 132:
 
== "Doctor Claw" is the secret identity of a famous and widely recognizable real-life person. ==
Doctor Claw's face is never shown, and his voice is obviously disguised. Why? Because ''we would recognize him''. There is a easily recognizable celebrity, perhaps in the world of entertainment or politics, that is leading this crime and terror organization from the shadows.
* My personal bet in roughly 1986 would have been then-US Vice President George H.W. Bush, but...
** ...too easy.
Line 286:
The little guy doesn't seem to actually be Inspector Gadget himself, just a similar creation. Gadget Boy '''is''' part human, like Gadget, but his human parts were created artificially in a laboratory, just like his mechanical parts. He was created in an attempt to recreate the success (or at least that's what it looked like on paper, as he was always foiling Claw's plans) of the original Inspector. That explains how Gadget Boy can be susceptible to human diseases (as opposed to G9 who was 100% mechanical) and be seemingly partially human while still being a 100% artificial being.
 
* The people who made Gadget Boy never met the actual Inspector Gadget, but they had access to Dr. Slickstein's records and files on him, including copies of his personality, and they used that to make Gadget Boy as much like Inspector Gadget as they could.
 
== MAD stands for [[Mutually Assured Destruction]] ==
