(Note: Some of these have been suggested in-universe.)
The Pingos really are clones
It is awfully suspicious that two narcissistic red foxes
of the opposite sex that look similar and are both majoring in Library Science would attend the same University, get married, and have a daughter who's practically the same as them.- Or they could just be related (hopefully distantly).
Mr. Et is Bud's biological father
Autumn seriously suspected this until she was told that Gene Et and Joseph Oven were cousins (then she got mad because vital information had been withheld from her). Poppinstock Academy is secretly training the kids to be supervillains
What else could those junior Mad Scientists become? They know how to make Dynamite at the age of ten.- I can identify some budding Neids and Hoffnungs already.
Deirdre Linkletter is actually a perky robot.
How else could she get so much done? Of course that would require Jacob to be some kind of Synthetic (which would explain how he can stand all the punishment he gets from his classmates).. Tiffany is a Time Lord
Though not a "normal" one, as shown in this strip she stopped aging after killing her future self and messing around with said future self's time machine. The only explanation is that she was exposed to an extremely high dose of temporal radiation that mutated her into a Time Lady. The kids' mental disorders
- Tiffany: ADHD, some other disorders
- Autumn: Paranoia
- Bud: SRMD, I'm dead serious.
Bud Oven
- He will pull of a Fence Painting episode that would make Tom Sawyer and even Mark Twain proud.
- Confirmed, at least once starting here.
- Confirmed, at least once starting here.
Autumn will learn that Information Brokers are usually Library Science majors
And be a bit more enthusiastic about her genetic predispositions.- Also that is true in real life.
The On-Cue Ball's apparent sentience
After a while, Kaytlyn memorized it's entire list of phrases. Every time it says something that makes it seem aware, Kaytlyn actually deliberately cycled it to that phrase for a cheap laugh. Bud is the control subject for the Doctors Xane's Grand Experiment.
They're old colleagues of Josephs. The families are secretly working together on testing the effects of the two extremes in parental involvement.
