  • Questions ask whether Wendell enjoyed the band or missed jazz and whether Frank plausibly failed to recognize the heroin overdose.
  • Unanswerable questions speculate about Maggie moving to New York television or a national publication after her report.
  • Questions ask why Eddie and Joanne never had a child and why Frank expected no retaliation after pursuing Joanne; artistic obsession is offered as one possible explanation.
  • Questions ask what Doc earned for the tapes and how the album would be released; predictions favor a disappointing reception rather than a masterpiece, with possible fraud consequences and reuse of concert footage for videos.
