* DrivenToSuicide : Discussed. Cameron asks Eric if he ever considers killing himself, because there's something "wrong" with him. He's understandably furious, and says he would never hurt his family and friends that way. Later, [[spoiler: when Cameron tells him his cancer has returned, he's not at the library the next time she goes. It's implied that he might have killed himself. Another interpretation is that he took some time off to get his cancer treated.]]

** Stark was supposed to show up December 31, 2010, to assassinate the Governor of California (see Celebrity Paradox above), but he showed up on the wrong night. He accidentally killed the person who was supposed to build Pico Tower, and instead had to build it himself. It's implied that the assassination of the governor would be one of the things that sets off Judgment Day a few months later.
Added DiffLines:
** John is also really uncomfortable at the party, and doesn't relate at all to his peers.
