* A USB drive found in the treasure hunt contains a recording of Grunkle Stan singing a song that Bill Cipher sang in the finale.
* The show's journal 3 reveals that Bill can only control people's bodies when they sleep, which could explain why Grunkle Stan doesn't show any signs of being possessed by Bill.
