- The exact family relationship between Ellen, Eddie’s household, and Aunt Edna is debated; cousin relationships are inferred but not firmly resolved.
- Brinkley’s destination and repeated appearances remain unexplained; the fantasy interpretation fails once she appears in the pool.
- Wally World’s implied proximity to Santa Monica and the coast does not fit an identifiable realistic location, with El Segundo only a guess.
- D’Angelo’s limited later career is attributed to scarce roles for women and competition, with Pfeiffer, Barkin, and Capshaw as comparisons.
- How Clark and Ellen remain married after the pool incident is questioned, with therapy imagined and his continued behavior in sequels noted.
- Wally personally responding to the hostage crisis is questioned, as is Clark walking freely while his children are handcuffed.
