- Kid living with parents despite talent questioned, Carrie-like drama rationale; Unexplained move from New Orleans to Minnesota interpreted as escape.
- Cold-water motorcycle ride prompts health hyperbole; poor hotel versus expensive guitar purchase inconsistent.
- Father original death reportedly changed after Star80 failure, leaving inconsistent chalk outline. Hanging-harness shot reportedly frightened Prince.
- Playing Purple Rain without rehearsal or arrangement implausible; unseen rehearsal or musical/music-video magic possible explanations.
