As another troper pointed out, we only hear about the affair from Newlon's point of view. We don't know if the baby is his, her husband's, or if she was pregnant at all (that ultrasound may not have been hers. Gina Gershon was 61 years old in 2023, unless she was playing a character that was in her 40s). Another thing: there was no mention that she was ill. No morning sickness. Another thing is that, in the aftermath, her husband never mentions the baby at all; he would've found out unless Newlon had kept that part a secret. A tragedy like that, you'd think he'd say something about it in the television interview.

It's just as possible that she was simply a supportive friend to Newlon after his divorce. But, he saw their relationship as a full-blown affair that didn't exist and everything was in his head. In other words, he's actually a stalker, and Amanda's death just exacerbated his mental instability. Had she not died on Thanksgiving, there's the possibility that she would've died at Newlon's hands under different circumstances with a different killing spree to cover it up. An example of his mental instability is when he fired shots into the ceiling during the riot--which law enforcement officers are trained ''not'' to do.

[[WMG: Yulia’s father is a member of a Russian mob]]
Yulia’s father has a fairly intimidating presence. Wearing expensive clothing, riding around in a blacked out luxury SUV, and having security guards at his house. It is possible that he could be part of an Eastern European mob or at least mob-affiliated.

[[WMG:The Carver's actions will inspire a copycat killer]]
In the sequel, it will be revealed that Newlon is dead, but his actions will inspire another resident to take over the Carver identity. Unlike Newlon's personal grudge, this killer will be a vigilante-style killer attacking the idea of Black Friday and those who practise it rather than going after specific targets.

The Right Mart offered a deal along the lines of the first hundred customers get 75% off, which is what led to the chaos. Adding onto that (assuming the film is set in present day, which would place the incident in 2022), they got a decent-sized shipment of something very popular that was usually out of stock, such as 30-40 {{UsefulNotes/PlayStation}} 5s, which only added to the customers' desperation.
* {{Jossed}}. The riot happens because several teenagers sneak in with inside help (the main character is the store owner's daughter), are seen, and then taunt the crowd over their 'unfair advantage'. Additionally, one person in the crowed had recieved a black eye from one of the teens the night before, causing him to steal a megaphone and further encourage the crowd. Cue riot.
* While there is an item in the Right Mart that's highlighted, it's not anything even particularly rare, but freaking ''waffle iron''.

General clarification on works content


The photographs seen in the reveal, and in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it before he starts his spree, are only of her and the only one with another person in it doesn't appear to be Newlon. Or perhaps edited as the one with a man in it seems completely off in terms of coloration (Amanda is wearing sunglasses, the man is not. Also, the lighting seems terribly off between the two people). They seem to be pictures of Amanda collected from social media.
