- The estate’s location is unresolved: Connecticut, Long Island and Westchester possibilities conflict with references to the island, Penn Station and the property’s scale.
- Sebastian’s apparent leap toward the cab raises the possibility of a partially intentional death, without settling the interpretation.
- Annette’s fond memory of Sebastian is questioned given the wager and diary; her controlled, thoughtful persona seems inconsistent with falling for his limited effort and gifts.
- Sebastian’s contempt for women and comfort with Gregory prompt speculation about unacknowledged attraction, but the group explicitly cannot determine his sexuality.
- A hypothetical later encounter between Sebastian and Gregory is imagined if Sebastian survived, without treating it as established character history.
