- Colter calling his father from the train. Doubles as a Heartwarming Moment.
- The fact that he's still Sean Fentress. He never told his father that he was OK, or that he loved him, because Colter Stevens is dead.
- The recording of Colter's father's eulogy at his son's memorial service.
- When it's revealed that everything Colter said to Goodwin was just text on a screen. She never actually heard his voice, but hers helped him so much.
- How about Colter finding out he's officially dead, stored in a secret life support machine as functionally just a brain in a jar?
- Given the implication of the ending, there are multiple realities where everyone on that train is dead.
