There have been a number of details that have happened in the Breeniverse that some fans view as mistakes on the part of [[the Creators]]. Here is a list of them, and suggested or actual resolutions.
  
−
==Accent?==
+
==ALEX==
−
'''Problem:''' Bree occasionally slips into a foreign accent. Why?
+
Which side is she on - does she really think she's helping the trio, or is she against them?
 +
Who was her husband? Why did they divorce?
 +
What happened on her 26th birthday that made her give up photography?
 +
Why did the Order pick her up at the beach? Where is she and what is she doing now?
 +
Why did she up and move? Where did all her stuff go? How come nobody has seen her? Why does the moving sign outside of her house say "JUST KNOCK!"? Why did she disappear at the same time as Lucy?
 +
What are the 'principles' that Alex offers to recite on the phone in "Lying Bastards"? Who was she talking to?
 +
When Alex told Bree, "They have another girl," did she mean Jules, herself, or someone else?
 +
Why did Alex go back to the Order and what was the "one step" she had remaining?
 +
Who was Alex talking about that she had visited the "Perfect Beach" with?
 +
Is she really in the fashion business, or does she travel around doing some work for the Order with that as a cover?
  
−
'''Solution:''' In [[Mysteries of My Past... REVEALED!]], Bree explains that she has lived abroad for a large portion of her life, both in England and New Zealand.
+
==BACK STORY==
 +
What is the significance of the girl abducted in 1943 by Crowley (since we know it is an event that never actually happened)?
 +
Who is the family that Gemma says disappeared? If she really thought Bree should do the ceremony, why did she scare her by saying that after the ceremony, that family disappeared? What happened to them? Did they really exist, or did Gemma (or someone telling her what to say) invent them?
 +
What happened between Taylor's parents? Is it significant to the story, or is it just character background?
  
−
==Bree's wardrobe on the run?==
+
==BREE==
 +
What is the significance of the scar on Bree's back, that was purposely shown in the "Swimming!" video? Is that the "mark" that Hymn of One refers to?
 +
What happened to Bree while she was with the Hymn of One? What made her all "Hymn-of-One-ish"? Why is her memory mixed up so badly? What is up with Bree's behavior after she was taken back to Jonas's? Why did she make "I hAtE tHeSe PeOpLe?" If she was being all crazy and spazzed out, how did she edit it together? Why did she go into a zombie-trance thing in "Bedside Manner"? Why did she start responding to Jonas? Did she have a plan for escape the whole time, or did it come to her later on?
 +
Why did Bree escape? Did she really want to go back to the HoO, or were there other reasons?
 +
Why does Bree have a seemingly endless wardrobe, and how come rarely wears the same shirt twice?
 +
If Bree and her dad were going to go see Isaac Gilman and Spencer, why didn't Bree say anything to Jonas and Daniel later? Why didn't she tell them about the injections?
  
−
'''Problem:''' How much clothing did Bree take with her when she left her house, anyway? From [[On The Run]] through [[Your Decision]], Bree makes over a dozen wardrobe changes, but never seems to have much luggage.
+
==BREE'S PARENTS==
 +
What did Bree's dad say that made Bree not want to contact her mother? Is there anything that Bree and her father discussed (other than the obvious information about Bree's mom) that we don't know yet?
 +
Why did she get upset that Bree "projected weakness" by crying?
 +
Do we really know that Bree's dad is dead?
 +
If he knew the Ceremony was bad and that she shouldn't be doing it, why did he let her prepare for it? Why didn't he put a stop to it all sooner? Why did he keep giving her Epogen? Why didn't he tell Bree about his concerns either before things got out of control, or the day he was shot? Why didn't he tell her how to lower her ribozyme levels without his help?
 +
What about the fact that they were not her biological parents? Where are her biological parents? Did they give her up willingly, or was she taken? Are her biological parents in Hymn of One? What about her adoptive parents qualified them to raise Bree, and what did her biological parents lack that disqualified them?
 +
Why is Bree suddenly happy with her mother again?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Daniel and Bree had Daniel's car up until they became homeless. We never saw how much stuff Bree may have had in the trunk of Daniel's car.
+
==THE BOX==
 +
Why did Bree's dad leave a box under a stump?
 +
What was in the rest of the letter from Bree's dad in the box?
 +
What else was in the notebook with the ribozyme charts?
 +
Was there anything else in the box?
  
−
==Bree has a cell phone?==
+
==CAPTURE IN VEGAS==
−
'''Problem:''' In the video [[Looking For Daniel]], we see that Bree has a working cell phone. However, given that her parents have been gone for nearly three months at this time and she has no source of income, one wonders who has been paying the bills.
+
Who captured Bree, Daniel and Jonas?
 +
Who was the interrogator?
 +
Where were they staying?
 +
How did they escape?
 +
Why did a Watcher kill their captor and let them go?
 +
How did they find Jonas' car again?
 +
We know Bree was told to do the Ceremony, and Daniel was told to go home, but what exactly was Jonas asked about? When they asked about his parents' death, why did he say "I don't want to play anymore?" Why does the interrogator say "This is no game?" Does Jonas know more about his parents' death than he realizes (maybe it's in his subconscious somewhere)?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Assuming Bree's parents were up-to date on their bills when they disappeared, it might not be unreasonable to have her phone still working after this amount of time. Also, they may have a pre-paid plan or some other billing method that means that Bree's phone still will function for some time long after their last bill was paid. It is also a slight possibility that Jonas has paid for Bree's phone, but not very likely despite his generosity in other areas. In the video [[Yellow Snow]], Jonas mentions that his is a pre-paid phone; such phones are generally cheaper and harder to trace, so it may be that Jonas got one for each of them.
+
==CASSIE==
 +
Who is Cassie?
 +
Why does Bree randomly remember her and bring her up?
 +
Why does Daniel not remember her?
 +
Why was everyone so mean to her?
 +
What freaked her out about the religion (since up until recently Bree didn't talk about it much, which we know because Daniel didn't really know anything about it)?
 +
How come Bree says at one point that Cassie stopped talking to her because Bree's religion freaked her out, but says in a later video that they haven't seen each other since Bree took the blame for Cassie making prank phone calls?
 +
Why does Daniel bring her up in "Miss Me?"
 +
Is she actually connected to the Order, or has the Order just used her name because Bree talked about her?
  
−
==Daniel the drama queen?==
+
==CEREMONY==
−
'''Problem:''' Could Daniel really be ''that dense'' in response to Bree's religion? He gets upset when she stands him up for a date to go to an important religious ceremony with her parents, and freaks out at the suggestion that Bree's ritual will involve walking back and forth in a straight line. What's up with that?
+
In "Order of Denderah", it is implied that the ceremony takes place in mid-October- is this the only time it takes place?
 +
Why would Bree hint that the ceremony would take place on 10/12/06 when it was only a false ceremony that hadn't been planned yet (we know this because Bree says that it wasn't planned until after the people helping her prepare found out Daniel was filming them)? Also, why did she have to lie to her parents about when the ceremony took place?
 +
What is the ceremony, anyway? Why is it so important that it be done, especially since Hymn of One isn't even a real religion? Or is it a real religion that the Order takes advantage of?
 +
What were the excercises that Bree and Jules talked about? What is the selection process for girls to be chosen for the ceremony? Why Bree and Jules (if, of course, Jules was actually a ceremony girl)? What is different about them than the other girls placed in "controlled enviroments"?
 +
What specific aspect of the ceremony requires use of Epogen?
 +
What special diet was Bree on, and why (we know she said it involves a lot of red meat and avoiding sugar, but what else does it entail, and why)? If Jules isn't a ceremony girl, why was she doing exercises and on a special diet?
 +
What exactly is the "purity bond" and why is it crucial?
 +
What was Bree's dad giving her that could lower her ribozyme levels?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Perhaps Daniel wasn't just worried about the steps, but he knew that ritualistic dances were a part of weird, and somewhat dangerous religions, like the Order, for example. If they're going to make Bree perform certain steps in a straight line, then what else would they do?
+
==DANIEL==
 +
What did Daniel talk about when Jonas hypnotized him? Did he really talk about Thursday night, or something else?
 +
Is there any particular reason why Daniel doesn't like to go swimming?
 +
In "Confrontation", Alex clearly didn't know how Daniel got in the house- how did he get in unnoticed, and what was he doing?
  
−
==Fourteen hours?==
+
==DEACONS==
−
'''Problem:''' In [[Aleister Crowley (Video)|Aleister Crowley]], Daniel complains "I've been up for like, 14 hours straight." Since the video was posted at 11:37 a.m., does that means he woke up at around 10 ''p.m.''? Whatever fourteen-hour span of time he's referring to, seeing as there are 24 hours in a day, being up fourteen hours implies ten hours left in the day for sleep, not a small amount.
+
Who are the deacons? Do they think they are really a part of a religion, or do they know that Hymn of One is just a front for the Order?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Perhaps Daniel mis-spoke and meant that he had been searching for info on the Internet for fourteen hours straight. Still, if that's the case, he didn't get much info for such an investment of time. Another possibility is that the video was filmed earlier and posted after Daniel had slept for some period of time.
+
==GILMAN==
 +
What is the Wyman foundation?
 +
Who is Isaac Gilman? What kind of work did he do with genetics?
 +
Who is "the Mistress"?
 +
Who is Ted Fuller?
 +
What were the injections Isaac Gilman was giving Bree? Were they to make her 'trait-negative'?
 +
Who is Spencer?
 +
What caused Isaac Gilman's car to crash? Was he killed by the same people who killed Bree's dad? Is there a connection between the deaths of Bree's dad, Gilman and Gemma (who were all killed the same day)?
  
−
==How Did Bree Restrain Jonas?==
 
−
'''Problem:''' In [[How Dumb Am I?]] Bree reveals that she has captured Jonas.  In the next video [[Bree Is Crazy]], Daniel reveals that Bree tied Jonas up.  Since Bree weighs all of about 100 pounds and Jonas is a trained boxer, how could she possibly have physically overwhelmed him?
 
  
−
'''Solution:''' It may be an inhumane and outright cruel thing to do, but if Jonas wasn't expecting anything, Bree could just have walked right up at him, pretending to be going to hug him, then kneeing him into the balls. That ''will'' take him out, no matter how trained he is. Also, Daniel may have helped, though seeing as in the next episode he said he was uncomfortable with Bree's keeping Jonas tied up it is not so likely he helped tie him up to begin with. Then again, maybe Jonas was asleep at the time.
+
==GEMMA==
 +
What was Gemma's real objective?
 +
Was she really working for the Order, or was it more complicated?
 +
Was she really shot by Brother, or was it a ruse?
 +
Is Finn, the musician at the party, the same musician that Gemma went on a few dates with?
  
−
==How long was Jonas tied up?==
+
==JONAS:==
 +
Was it just a coincidence that Jonas contacted Bree and offered to help her in her flight from the Order, and then later his parents turned out to be closely connected to the Order/resistance? Or did Jonas know more than he has revealed about his parents' activities?
 +
Was there any significance to what Jonas was mumbling in his sleep when they were chasing Alex ("Missing Days")? Could his parents have maybe given him information that he didn't realize was information at the time?
 +
When searching for Bree, why did Jonas have a mental break down at a lake?
 +
What is up with Jonas's email? Why is it so out of character, and why are there so many mistakes?
 +
How does Jonas finance their adventures without leaving a trail for the Order to follow when he uses ATM's and such? Is that how the Order keeps finding them?
  
−
'''Problem:''' When Jonas was tied up for three days how did he go to the bathroom and/or eat/drink? Did Bree untie him occasionally so that he could use the toilet? The method by which Jonas is seen to be tied up in [[Interrogation 101]] doesn't seem conducive to such activities.
+
==JONAS' PARENTS==
 +
What's going on with the whole plot involving Jonas' parents? Are they really still alive? Where are they, and why have they been gone so long?
 +
What is the "whacked-out, crazy stuff" that Alex's mom accused Jonas' dad of?
 +
Was there more to Alex's mom's death than just an accident? What are these pictures that the Order had, proving that Jonas' dad was involved with her death?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Since Daniel wasn't happy with Bree's methods, he probably helped Jonas with eating, or maybe force eating possibly if Jonas was mad at him, and probably even helped with the bathroom thing, which they could've found some way with a bottle. Since they're friends and guys generally go in front of each other in public bathrooms, there shouldn't have been that much uncomfortableness.
+
==JULES==
 +
What about Jules? Was she a distraction, bait, or was she really a new Ceremony girl?
 +
Why does her birth certificate say that she is not adopted? Are her parents actually her biological parents, or is it a cover from the Order so that no one knows she is adopted?
 +
Why did she have the symbol for Epogen in her file, and what is "trait negative"? Is she missing one of the traits that Bree mentioned?
  
−
==Precision burglary?==
+
==LUCY==
−
'''Problem:''' When Daniel [[Breaking And Entering|breaks into the warehouse]], it's clear that the place is several floors with numerous rooms on each floor, but Daniel chooses a single room seemingly at random. Entering that room, he passes up stacks of open boxes to choose a closed box, opens it and removes a single object. In such a short search, he is certain he has found the substance that Bree has been injected with?
+
What is the significance of the map locations on Lucy's computer? Are they locations of eligible ceremony girls, or of places the ceremony will be held, or what?
 +
Why does Lucy seem to show up all of the time, even in Mexico?
 +
Is there more to her than we know?
 +
Why hasn't she been seen since she showed up in Zavalla? Where is she now? Why is her computer gone from her apartment? Why did she leave behind a map? Wouldn't she have taken it with when she was traveling?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Editing! The optimal length for a video is 2 minutes and who wants to spend 30 minutes watching Daniel open doors to empty rooms or to rooms with unimportant details. Also, the box had the same symbol as the one he found at Bree's house so it's a natural assumption that it may be the right stuff. Additionally, he hears people entering the building and flees, cutting short any further search. Upon researching the drug it makes sense with all the other information at hand about Bree that this is the likely solution.  He posted it because it seemed to be the right stuff based on his research.
+
==NIKKI BOWER==
 +
What about Nikki B.? Is she canon now, or was that a one-time-deal?
 +
What is Nikki B. doing undercover with the HoO?
  
−
==When is the Ceremony?==
+
==ORDER/HYMN OF ONE==
−
'''Problem:''' The ceremony was originally thought to be on October 12th, 2006, but the ceremony seen on that date was later revealed to be a hoax. Consider this: The date was originally noticed in the video [[Bree The Cookie Monster]], but Bree claims she didn't know about the ceremony until three days after this video was posted, in [[A Change In My Life]]. Later, in [[I Lied To Daniel]] when this all comes out, she says that the ceremony was a set-up to lure Daniel into following Bree when "they found out that he'd been filming us." However, it doesn't make sense that the Order would view Daniel filming Bree as an issue until he was doing it secretly, which was after [[My Difficult Decision]], at which time it is made clear that Bree is no longer speaking with Daniel. So how did Bree give Daniel a false clue as the the date of the fake ceremony?
+
What is the difference (if any) between The Order and the Hymn of One?
 +
In "Mystery Movies", we find out that Bree's dad must be watching her videos, and we know from the video "Me for Daniel" that the Order is watching Bree's videos- but later, in one of Nikki B.'s videos, we find out that the Order doesn't watch her videos- why?
 +
What is the connection between the Order and ancient Egypt? Is there any reason beyond some way to lend credibility to Hymn of One?
 +
Why are there conflicting ideas about capturing Bree within the Order?
 +
What is the significance of all of the "free will" talk in the Order? Is it just something that the Hymn of One uses to get people in, or is it really part of the Order's objectives, or what?
 +
What is the "eternal song"? Is it literally a song, or just a metaphor of some kind?
 +
Why did the HoO ask what it did on the "audition" survey? What were the significances of the various answers?
 +
What is with the mantra "The Hymn of One is fun?"
  
−
'''Solution:''' The clue could have been put in by the Creators, not Bree the character. Something for the viewers to find, rather than Daniel.
+
==OTHER PARENTS==
 +
Why was Alex's mom afraid of planes (in "Apology Accepted" we find out she said that "planes don't fly, they crash.")?
 +
What is Daniel doing about his parents? They can't possibly believe that he's still camping, can they?
 +
What's wrong between Taylor and Sarah's parents? What was in the message that their dad left that made their mom so sad?
  
−
==Wherefore Gemma?==
+
==THE PARTY==
−
'''Problem:''' From what we know about Gemma now, it seems that her purpose in posting videos to Bree was to keep her in line and stop her from bowing out of the ceremony. However, at the time that Gemma starts posting her videos, Bree has given no indication that she is in any way intending to defy the Order. So what exactly was Gemma's purpose?
+
At the party in the "Uncle Dan" videos, why do they very obviously point out the musician guy?
 +
Who was the guy arguing with Alex, and why were they arguing?
 +
Why does Toby struggle to say Beth is a reporter and then Beth cuts him off?
 +
Why is Carl and what was with all the "it's fine, it's fine, it's fine" and other weird stuff at the party?
 +
What about the comment about Jonas's "file"?
 +
What did Alex tell Sonia about Jonas? Why would she talk about him if she hasn't seen him in about six years?
 +
Why does Carl flip out when Daniel tries to talk to Sonia and him?
 +
Why was there a picture of Lucy, and who is the other woman? Is the other woman Rebecca? Was she really lying about her connections to the Order and Hymn of One? Why did she invite Daniel in for tea?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Bree may not have intended to defy the Order at the time, but she was having problems preparing for the ceremony and the Order was aware of that.  She had been sneaking out of her house, violating her [[purity bond]], and was also being followed by [[Daniel]].  Gemma started posting blogs shorty after Daniel snuck into Lucy's apartment and found pictures of himself on her computer taken during the staged ceremony.  The Order was already atuned to the difficulties in adequately performing the ceremony with Bree, so they sent in Gemma.  Gemma was the I in Aphid: Infiltrate.
+
==THE RESISTANCE==
 +
What is in "The Order of the Modern Empire" other than the Theta/Pi symbol and list of initials?
 +
Is there still a resistance group alive (besides our trio, of course)?
 +
Besides physical training, did Bree learn anything from Tachyon during her recent stay with her?
 +
What does the stuff on the whiteboard in the bunker mean? What did they change it to say?
 +
What else did they find in the bunker? Was there anything to find?
  
−
==Why fool Daniel?==
+
==RANDOM:==
−
'''Problem:''' The fake ceremony was set up to lure in Daniel, but why? If the Order wanted to catch Daniel, surely by now they would have had many opportunities. Likewise, they would have had many opportunities to take pictures of him. OpAphid had Daniel under surveillance for a little over a week in early December, but took no direct action against him in that time. So does someone in the Order just think Daniel's a hottie or something? "Get me more pictures of that 'Beast' boy!"
+
Why is the tag "hamster" used in quite a few videos that have nothing to do with hamsters?
 +
What happened with "the Cowboy"? Wasn't he supposed to be central to the plot?
 +
What is the significance of longitude and meridians? Bree made a whole video about it (and the story she told was a myth, which she treated as fact, which seems to indicate it is an important topic), Jonas talks about his parents being lost at sea at a particular longitude, Jonas says that Alex's mom used to talk about them a lot, then - so what's the big deal? Are meridians referring to geography or Chinese medicine, or something else entirely?
 +
Does Pluto have any significance in the story, as it has now been mentioned three times in the series?
 +
Did Bree and Jonas sleep together, or did he just try to make it look that way?
  
−
'''Solution:''' Daniel had been spying on the Order, so they perceived him as a possible threat to their plans.  They took pictures of him for identification purposes and kept him under surveillance to monitor his anti-Order activities and find out how much he knew.  Such a sophisticated and powerful organization can't see him as a real threat, so they were just watching to make sure they hadn't underestimated him.  So far it seems they haven't.
+
==SARAH==
 +
Why did Sarah leave home and join the boys?
 +
Why has Sarah fallen for Daniel so quickly? Does she really like him, or is she using him for something?
 +
Is Sarah really as promiscuous as she claims?
 +
Why does she make such a huge deal about "fun" in "Everybody Does It ;)"?
  
−
==Will there be a real ceremony?==
+
== Hymn Of One Videos ==
−
'''Problem:''' While the ceremony we saw is supposedly fake, Bree was nonetheless receving injections, learning Enochian, etc. for a purpose, right? Yet now, all the things that Bree had been doing in preparation for the ceremony have ceased. Most fans have assumed that the Order still wants Bree for the ceremony, but after a month and a half of preparation, Bree has now gone nearly three months (since [[I Listened To Daniel]] on October 24th) without any injections, exercises or practice. ''Can'' there be a ceremony for Bree?
+
Why does "Sing With Me" open with a large star in the middle of the screen followed by a smaller shooting star?
 +
Why are Sonia and Carl with Bree?
 +
Why is Bree wearing a bandage again? Is she taking Epogen again?
 +
Why is everyone wearing white? Why is Bree wearing jeans, when the other two are wearing either white or khaki pants (not sure which)?
 +
Why is there a shot of Boston at the end of each video?
 +
How are secret messages ending up in the HoO videos? Who put them there, and why?
  
−
'''Solution:''' In the video [[Miss Me?]], after months of no one mentioning The Ceremony, a brain-washed Daniel suddenly urges Bree to "do the ceremony."  In [[Me For Daniel]], Bree agrees to do so, in exchange for Daniel's release.  Though we later find out in [[Rescuing Daniel]] that Bree is bluffing, it is clear that the Order still wants their ceremony.
+
==WATCHERS ==
 +
What are Watchers, and what side are they on? What is their goal/purpose?
 +
Why do Watchers (and apparently most Order members) dress the same? Wouldn't their job be easier if they weren't as easily recognizable?
 +
Why did Gemma warn Bree about the Watchers, especially if they were working for the Order?
 +
Why weren't there Watchers to protect Jules?
  
−
==Don't Daniel's Parents Wonder Where He's Been?==
 
−
'''Problem:''' Daniel has been on the run with Bree (and eventually, Jonas) for a couple of months. Why haven't his parents wondered where he went? The same question could be asked about [[Callmejules24|Jules]]. She has been missing for over a week. And if she is the [[List of New Girl Candidates|new girl]], she needs to keep her [[purity bond]].
 
  
−
'''Solution:''' Daniel's parents are [[inebriated|alcoholics]]. They are probably too drunk to notice that Daniel is gone. In addition, Daniel has noted that they aren't exactly the "hands-on" type. For Jules, if she really was the new girl, her parents are most likely with the Order like Bree's parents, and the Order could have told the parents to not do anything, not worry, whatever.
 
  
−
==Mysterious Person Watch?==
 
−
'''Problem:''' In the video [[We Found Julia!!!]], Bree starts following Julia and Jonas films it. When Julia tries to run away, Bree grabs her. Wouldn't she have told someone (ie, the police, her parents) that two people were following her?
 
−
 
−
'''Solution:''' When Bree and Daniel [[It's Not Kidnapping|kidnap Julia]], she is wearing the same clothes from the previous video. They may have taken her on the same day they found her. Julia may have been so scared that she went straight home and her parents weren't there. Then Bree and Daniel made their move.

There have been a number of details that have happened in the Breeniverse that some fans view as mistakes on the part of the Creators. Here is a list of them, and suggested or actual resolutions.

ALEX

Which side is she on - does she really think she's helping the trio, or is she against them? Who was her husband? Why did they divorce? What happened on her 26th birthday that made her give up photography? Why did the Order pick her up at the beach? Where is she and what is she doing now? Why did she up and move? Where did all her stuff go? How come nobody has seen her? Why does the moving sign outside of her house say "JUST KNOCK!"? Why did she disappear at the same time as Lucy? What are the 'principles' that Alex offers to recite on the phone in "Lying Bastards"? Who was she talking to? When Alex told Bree, "They have another girl," did she mean Jules, herself, or someone else? Why did Alex go back to the Order and what was the "one step" she had remaining? Who was Alex talking about that she had visited the "Perfect Beach" with? Is she really in the fashion business, or does she travel around doing some work for the Order with that as a cover?

BACK STORY

What is the significance of the girl abducted in 1943 by Crowley (since we know it is an event that never actually happened)? Who is the family that Gemma says disappeared? If she really thought Bree should do the ceremony, why did she scare her by saying that after the ceremony, that family disappeared? What happened to them? Did they really exist, or did Gemma (or someone telling her what to say) invent them? What happened between Taylor's parents? Is it significant to the story, or is it just character background?

BREE

What is the significance of the scar on Bree's back, that was purposely shown in the "Swimming!" video? Is that the "mark" that Hymn of One refers to? What happened to Bree while she was with the Hymn of One? What made her all "Hymn-of-One-ish"? Why is her memory mixed up so badly? What is up with Bree's behavior after she was taken back to Jonas's? Why did she make "I hAtE tHeSe PeOpLe?" If she was being all crazy and spazzed out, how did she edit it together? Why did she go into a zombie-trance thing in "Bedside Manner"? Why did she start responding to Jonas? Did she have a plan for escape the whole time, or did it come to her later on? Why did Bree escape? Did she really want to go back to the HoO, or were there other reasons? Why does Bree have a seemingly endless wardrobe, and how come rarely wears the same shirt twice? If Bree and her dad were going to go see Isaac Gilman and Spencer, why didn't Bree say anything to Jonas and Daniel later? Why didn't she tell them about the injections?

BREE'S PARENTS

What did Bree's dad say that made Bree not want to contact her mother? Is there anything that Bree and her father discussed (other than the obvious information about Bree's mom) that we don't know yet? Why did she get upset that Bree "projected weakness" by crying? Do we really know that Bree's dad is dead? If he knew the Ceremony was bad and that she shouldn't be doing it, why did he let her prepare for it? Why didn't he put a stop to it all sooner? Why did he keep giving her Epogen? Why didn't he tell Bree about his concerns either before things got out of control, or the day he was shot? Why didn't he tell her how to lower her ribozyme levels without his help? What about the fact that they were not her biological parents? Where are her biological parents? Did they give her up willingly, or was she taken? Are her biological parents in Hymn of One? What about her adoptive parents qualified them to raise Bree, and what did her biological parents lack that disqualified them? Why is Bree suddenly happy with her mother again?

THE BOX

Why did Bree's dad leave a box under a stump? What was in the rest of the letter from Bree's dad in the box? What else was in the notebook with the ribozyme charts? Was there anything else in the box?

CAPTURE IN VEGAS

Who captured Bree, Daniel and Jonas? Who was the interrogator? Where were they staying? How did they escape? Why did a Watcher kill their captor and let them go? How did they find Jonas' car again? We know Bree was told to do the Ceremony, and Daniel was told to go home, but what exactly was Jonas asked about? When they asked about his parents' death, why did he say "I don't want to play anymore?" Why does the interrogator say "This is no game?" Does Jonas know more about his parents' death than he realizes (maybe it's in his subconscious somewhere)?

CASSIE

Who is Cassie? Why does Bree randomly remember her and bring her up? Why does Daniel not remember her? Why was everyone so mean to her? What freaked her out about the religion (since up until recently Bree didn't talk about it much, which we know because Daniel didn't really know anything about it)? How come Bree says at one point that Cassie stopped talking to her because Bree's religion freaked her out, but says in a later video that they haven't seen each other since Bree took the blame for Cassie making prank phone calls? Why does Daniel bring her up in "Miss Me?" Is she actually connected to the Order, or has the Order just used her name because Bree talked about her?

CEREMONY

In "Order of Denderah", it is implied that the ceremony takes place in mid-October- is this the only time it takes place? Why would Bree hint that the ceremony would take place on 10/12/06 when it was only a false ceremony that hadn't been planned yet (we know this because Bree says that it wasn't planned until after the people helping her prepare found out Daniel was filming them)? Also, why did she have to lie to her parents about when the ceremony took place? What is the ceremony, anyway? Why is it so important that it be done, especially since Hymn of One isn't even a real religion? Or is it a real religion that the Order takes advantage of? What were the excercises that Bree and Jules talked about? What is the selection process for girls to be chosen for the ceremony? Why Bree and Jules (if, of course, Jules was actually a ceremony girl)? What is different about them than the other girls placed in "controlled enviroments"? What specific aspect of the ceremony requires use of Epogen? What special diet was Bree on, and why (we know she said it involves a lot of red meat and avoiding sugar, but what else does it entail, and why)? If Jules isn't a ceremony girl, why was she doing exercises and on a special diet? What exactly is the "purity bond" and why is it crucial? What was Bree's dad giving her that could lower her ribozyme levels?

DANIEL

What did Daniel talk about when Jonas hypnotized him? Did he really talk about Thursday night, or something else? Is there any particular reason why Daniel doesn't like to go swimming? In "Confrontation", Alex clearly didn't know how Daniel got in the house- how did he get in unnoticed, and what was he doing?

DEACONS

Who are the deacons? Do they think they are really a part of a religion, or do they know that Hymn of One is just a front for the Order?

GILMAN

What is the Wyman foundation? Who is Isaac Gilman? What kind of work did he do with genetics? Who is "the Mistress"? Who is Ted Fuller? What were the injections Isaac Gilman was giving Bree? Were they to make her 'trait-negative'? Who is Spencer? What caused Isaac Gilman's car to crash? Was he killed by the same people who killed Bree's dad? Is there a connection between the deaths of Bree's dad, Gilman and Gemma (who were all killed the same day)?


GEMMA

What was Gemma's real objective? Was she really working for the Order, or was it more complicated? Was she really shot by Brother, or was it a ruse? Is Finn, the musician at the party, the same musician that Gemma went on a few dates with?

JONAS:

Was it just a coincidence that Jonas contacted Bree and offered to help her in her flight from the Order, and then later his parents turned out to be closely connected to the Order/resistance? Or did Jonas know more than he has revealed about his parents' activities? Was there any significance to what Jonas was mumbling in his sleep when they were chasing Alex ("Missing Days")? Could his parents have maybe given him information that he didn't realize was information at the time? When searching for Bree, why did Jonas have a mental break down at a lake? What is up with Jonas's email? Why is it so out of character, and why are there so many mistakes? How does Jonas finance their adventures without leaving a trail for the Order to follow when he uses ATM's and such? Is that how the Order keeps finding them?

JONAS' PARENTS

What's going on with the whole plot involving Jonas' parents? Are they really still alive? Where are they, and why have they been gone so long? What is the "whacked-out, crazy stuff" that Alex's mom accused Jonas' dad of? Was there more to Alex's mom's death than just an accident? What are these pictures that the Order had, proving that Jonas' dad was involved with her death?

JULES

What about Jules? Was she a distraction, bait, or was she really a new Ceremony girl? Why does her birth certificate say that she is not adopted? Are her parents actually her biological parents, or is it a cover from the Order so that no one knows she is adopted? Why did she have the symbol for Epogen in her file, and what is "trait negative"? Is she missing one of the traits that Bree mentioned?

LUCY

What is the significance of the map locations on Lucy's computer? Are they locations of eligible ceremony girls, or of places the ceremony will be held, or what? Why does Lucy seem to show up all of the time, even in Mexico? Is there more to her than we know? Why hasn't she been seen since she showed up in Zavalla? Where is she now? Why is her computer gone from her apartment? Why did she leave behind a map? Wouldn't she have taken it with when she was traveling?

NIKKI BOWER

What about Nikki B.? Is she canon now, or was that a one-time-deal? What is Nikki B. doing undercover with the HoO?

ORDER/HYMN OF ONE

What is the difference (if any) between The Order and the Hymn of One? In "Mystery Movies", we find out that Bree's dad must be watching her videos, and we know from the video "Me for Daniel" that the Order is watching Bree's videos- but later, in one of Nikki B.'s videos, we find out that the Order doesn't watch her videos- why? What is the connection between the Order and ancient Egypt? Is there any reason beyond some way to lend credibility to Hymn of One? Why are there conflicting ideas about capturing Bree within the Order? What is the significance of all of the "free will" talk in the Order? Is it just something that the Hymn of One uses to get people in, or is it really part of the Order's objectives, or what? What is the "eternal song"? Is it literally a song, or just a metaphor of some kind? Why did the HoO ask what it did on the "audition" survey? What were the significances of the various answers? What is with the mantra "The Hymn of One is fun?"

OTHER PARENTS

Why was Alex's mom afraid of planes (in "Apology Accepted" we find out she said that "planes don't fly, they crash.")? What is Daniel doing about his parents? They can't possibly believe that he's still camping, can they? What's wrong between Taylor and Sarah's parents? What was in the message that their dad left that made their mom so sad?

THE PARTY

At the party in the "Uncle Dan" videos, why do they very obviously point out the musician guy? Who was the guy arguing with Alex, and why were they arguing? Why does Toby struggle to say Beth is a reporter and then Beth cuts him off? Why is Carl and what was with all the "it's fine, it's fine, it's fine" and other weird stuff at the party? What about the comment about Jonas's "file"? What did Alex tell Sonia about Jonas? Why would she talk about him if she hasn't seen him in about six years? Why does Carl flip out when Daniel tries to talk to Sonia and him? Why was there a picture of Lucy, and who is the other woman? Is the other woman Rebecca? Was she really lying about her connections to the Order and Hymn of One? Why did she invite Daniel in for tea?

THE RESISTANCE

What is in "The Order of the Modern Empire" other than the Theta/Pi symbol and list of initials? Is there still a resistance group alive (besides our trio, of course)? Besides physical training, did Bree learn anything from Tachyon during her recent stay with her? What does the stuff on the whiteboard in the bunker mean? What did they change it to say? What else did they find in the bunker? Was there anything to find?

RANDOM:

Why is the tag "hamster" used in quite a few videos that have nothing to do with hamsters? What happened with "the Cowboy"? Wasn't he supposed to be central to the plot? What is the significance of longitude and meridians? Bree made a whole video about it (and the story she told was a myth, which she treated as fact, which seems to indicate it is an important topic), Jonas talks about his parents being lost at sea at a particular longitude, Jonas says that Alex's mom used to talk about them a lot, then - so what's the big deal? Are meridians referring to geography or Chinese medicine, or something else entirely? Does Pluto have any significance in the story, as it has now been mentioned three times in the series? Did Bree and Jonas sleep together, or did he just try to make it look that way?

SARAH

Why did Sarah leave home and join the boys? Why has Sarah fallen for Daniel so quickly? Does she really like him, or is she using him for something? Is Sarah really as promiscuous as she claims? Why does she make such a huge deal about "fun" in "Everybody Does It ;)"?

Hymn Of One Videos

Why does "Sing With Me" open with a large star in the middle of the screen followed by a smaller shooting star? Why are Sonia and Carl with Bree? Why is Bree wearing a bandage again? Is she taking Epogen again? Why is everyone wearing white? Why is Bree wearing jeans, when the other two are wearing either white or khaki pants (not sure which)? Why is there a shot of Boston at the end of each video? How are secret messages ending up in the HoO videos? Who put them there, and why?

WATCHERS

What are Watchers, and what side are they on? What is their goal/purpose? Why do Watchers (and apparently most Order members) dress the same? Wouldn't their job be easier if they weren't as easily recognizable? Why did Gemma warn Bree about the Watchers, especially if they were working for the Order? Why weren't there Watchers to protect Jules?
