* AscendedFanon: One of the most popular theories about the Narrator's origins was that he was a guardian angel looking out for the Freelance Police. When Sam encounters the Narrator, should Sam choose the "You're lying" prompt, the Narrator admits that he's really an angel looking out for Sam and Max...[[spoiler:before reiterating that no, he's actually the manifestation of Max's superego before snarkily stating "Sometimes the best answers are the simplest ones."]]

* DisabilitySuperpower: Played With. According to Mr. Papierwaite, the only ones capable of using the Toys of Power (besides EldritchAbominations, at least) are "the insane, the simple and the defective." In other words, the Toys granted Max and Sammun-Mak psychic powers because they were mental unstable. However, none of said psychic powers actually do anything to counteract their mental issues, and in the case of Sammun-Mak, just end up enabling the user's issues.

* HaveANiceDeath: Unusually for a (pre-[[VideoGame/JurassicParkTheGame Jurrasic Park]]) (pre-''[[VideoGame/JurassicParkTheGame Jurassic Park]]'') Telltale game, "The Tomb of Sammun-Mak" features [[TheManyDeathsOfYou numerous ways to die]] (indeed, the [=PS3=] version has a trophy if you see them all). However, the game is being told as a cinematic flashback to Sam and Max's ancestors, who aren't supposed to die [[spoiler: until the very end of the game]]. Thus, every time you perish, you're sent back to just before you screwed up and got killed, so you can try again without any hassle.
