Plot hole: Amazing that neither Hank's mother nor father ever saw the bandage on the back of his head, peeled it off, and would discover his tattoo.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)
Question: When Leatherface starts rampaging during Stretch's flirting with him, and he's starting his chainsaw up, is this supposed to represent something? It's right after she repeatedly asks if he's mad at her and how good he is.
Answer: It's basically Leatherface's version of an orgasm. Stretch appeals to his sexuality in order to survive, and he's aroused. He uses his chainsaw as a phallic object, rubbing it against her leg and then pressing it into her groin, and is panting, which obviously symbolizes his idea of sex. And then he becomes aggressive, revs up his chainsaw, and destroys the studio in an explosive emotional display, not unlike the strong physical/emotional sensation that comes with an orgasm. You could also theoretically make an argument that the mess he creates by sawing and throwing things around specifically represents male ejaculation, which involves a pulsating release of semen and can be, let's just say, "messy" sometimes depending on what sexual activity you're doing.
Thank you.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Stupidity: It seems risky locking Harley in one of the infected people's cells. She could catch the infection within hours. Batman should've taken her or had Robin take her to GCPD.

Suggested correction: The infection could only be passed on from Joker's infected blood. Plus, Batman wouldn't want to take the risk of a loose cannon like Harley running around.

Suggested correction: I think it's reasonable to presume that one simply fell down onto the plate while the others remained stuck to the ceiling.

My Name Is Earl (2005)
Question: Why'd they cancel the show?
Answer: Details are sketchy, but apparently NBC had renewed the series for a 5th season, but after unresolved contract disputes, the network canceled the show. 20th Century Fox, who produced the show, attempted to get other networks like FOX, TNT, and TBS to pick it up, but the studio was unable to reach favorable terms that would protect the show's artistic content.

Question: Given that the mother pulled a vanishing act before with her daughter, why didn't the court put the child in foster care during the trial to make sure she didn't pull it again?

Law & Order (1990)
Question: Once her zealousness is uncovered, why isn't Judge Karlin reprimanded for this and disbarred? And her cases looked into to see if any more had ridiculous sentences passed down.
Answer: Who says she wasn't? She's only in this episode. Her whole future couldn't have been covered in 40 minutes.
