- Henry's waters (both still and bubbly) tell him something is amiss. If he poured it down the plughole, it would go anti-clockwise. Or is that a myth?
- Clockwise and anti-clockwise is all relative, just like north and south poles (decided by 19th-century cartographers).
- The slugs are suppurating on the paths, they don't know what to do. All they can do is augur.
- The Beans are the union, the boss, and the factory/mine itself. Being truncheoned while tossing Molotov cocktails. Throwing themselves into riot vans while laughing in members' clubs, drinking brandy with the shareholders (who are also them), guillotining the pastry chef (who is also them).
- Plug for the November Patreon content, including a Slavic folk tale about a witch called Baba Ganoush.
- Fifth Wednesday is when the natural and supernatural combine, so don't throw Scrabble pieces on the floor, or they may spell out a specific curse or the biography of a racehorse. If the letters offer answers about what happened to Shergar, don't call the Beans, call Piers Morgan or Maitlis or Peter Taylor (because of the Provos' possible involvement in the Shergar story, though this may be dangerous territory).
- Henry wishes for the ep to end with a fade out on him sounding like he's making a good point about the Provos.
