- Bob’s rescue of Charles seems inconsistent with wanting him dead, but Charles’s survival knowledge supplies a practical explanation.
- The sophisticated trap and ready supply of rope seem implausible; such engineering skill could instead create shelter and a rescue signal.
- Bob could be ten percent more vicious by explicitly taunting Charles about the affair; the counterview preserves some audience sympathy for him.
- A working supermodel requesting a large late-night ham sandwich seems implausible to the discussion.
- Stephen’s unexplained spear injury remains a nitpick.
- Mickey’s engraving both gifts through the same shop carelessly documents the affair and exposes it to the engraver.
- The engraver could demand hush money;50,000 is considered more realistically payable than 10 million.
- A grizzly’s claimed 30–35-mile-per-hour speed makes the men’s escape implausible, and its home terrain should not be an obstacle.
