Question: How could Baracus have been in Vietnam, as flying is the only way to get there and he hates it?
Answer: It was actually hinted early in the show's run that he wasn't afraid to fly until he was in Vietnam. Something that happened there made him afraid of flying. They revisited that again in the 2010 film, where it was Murdoc's insane flying of a helicopter that scared him.
That was my first thought - unless it's explicitly stated he's been afraid of flying all his life, it makes perfect sense that it was a fear triggered by a wartime experience.
Answer: Vietnam is accessible by sea. Also, just because someone hates flying doesn't mean they can't just "suck it up" and do it, if it's important enough. If he was in the military, then he would not have a choice. His fear may have grown over the years. His A-Team members often sedated him and would even knock him out to get him on a plane.

The A-Team (1983)
Question: How could they get an unconscious Baracus on commercial flights?
Answer: Several times, Face would pose as a doctor to get Murdock out of the Mental Hospital. How easy would it have been to convince airport officials that he was a doctor taking a sedated patient on board? Or simply tell them, this man is afraid of flying, so he had to be sedated. They could say, "Believe me, you don't want this man to be awake."
Answer: The reply does not answer the question. It does not ask how they sedated him, but how a sedated person can be checked in at the airport.
Answer: In the pilot episode, they would give him a tranquilizer dose with a needle injection. In two episodes, he tried to fly awake but went wild once in the air. In another episode, when hijackers held a plane, it was on the ground. When it took off, B.A. went into a catatonic state.

Batman and Robin (1997)
Question: Unless the Robin signal was still turned on, how did Barbara know where to find the guys?
Answer: When Barbara told Holligran Alfred, she wanted to help, he said, "I prepared for this." He gave her a suit, which meant he equipped it with the latest tech. After years of serving Batman, it's logical to assume he put a GPS tracker into his batsuit.

Designing Women (1986)
The Odyssey - S7-E12
Question: Why would Julia care that Carlene voted for Ross Perot?
Answer: The group, including Carlene, were invited to attend Bill Clinton's inauguration in D.C. Julia was apparently bothered that Carlene is attending a Democratic victory event after she had voted against Clinton and for Perot, an Independent candidate. Julia probably considers it hypocritical and something of a betrayal.

Julia Drives Over the First Amendment - S3-E22
Stupidity: Surely, Julia realises she could get hurt or hurt someone driving her car into that newsstand. Not to mention they'd take away her driver's license because of this.

King of the Hill (1997)
Question: How come Hank can't say he loves Peggy or Bobby?
Answer: Hank is portrayed as being somewhat stern and uncomfortable with expressing a lot of deep emotion. Maybe it's because of the way his father, Cotton, treats him: scolding him for acting too emotional and such. This is shown in some flashbacks. A recurring joke is that he has no problem being "lovey dovey" with the dog, Ladybird, and easily shows his affection to her.

I Married a Witch (1942)
Factual error: Those in America, mainly in Massachusetts, weren't burned at the stake when accused of witchcraft. They were hanged. It was those in Europe who were burned at the stake.

Question: Did the nihilists force that one's girlfriend to get her toe cut off?
Answer: They don't appear to have; she's a nihilist too, and seems to have been in on it. The way they put it in their confrontation with the Dude and Walter suggests this: "His girlfriend cut off her toe", "She thought we would get a million dollars." Both expressions imply that she did it herself in the hopes of getting the ransom.

Plot hole: Amazing that neither Hank's mother nor father ever saw the bandage on the back of his head, peeled it off, and would discover his tattoo.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (1986)
Question: When Leatherface starts rampaging during Stretch's flirting with him, and he's starting his chainsaw up, is this supposed to represent something? It's right after she repeatedly asks if he's mad at her and how good he is.
Answer: It's basically Leatherface's version of an orgasm. Stretch appeals to his sexuality in order to survive, and he's aroused. He uses his chainsaw as a phallic object, rubbing it against her leg and then pressing it into her groin, and is panting, which obviously symbolizes his idea of sex. And then he becomes aggressive, revs up his chainsaw, and destroys the studio in an explosive emotional display, not unlike the strong physical/emotional sensation that comes with an orgasm. You could also theoretically make an argument that the mess he creates by sawing and throwing things around specifically represents male ejaculation, which involves a pulsating release of semen and can be, let's just say, "messy" sometimes depending on what sexual activity you're doing.
Thank you.

Batman: Arkham Knight
Stupidity: It seems risky locking Harley in one of the infected people's cells. She could catch the infection within hours. Batman should've taken her or had Robin take her to GCPD.
Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.
Suggested correction: The infection could only be passed on from Joker's infected blood. Plus, Batman wouldn't want to take the risk of a loose cannon like Harley running around.

Answer: More than likely... but that doesn't strictly matter. They'll still have been cured, avoided death, and "saved" in a sense. Even if they lose their freedom, they still are going to have a happier ending than they would have otherwise.

Remember that Oscorp is a corrupt company in the Amazing series. More than likely, both Connors and Dillon might be killed in prison under orders, so some happy ending.
Rob245
That's a very bold assumption to make, especially considering they DIDN'T kill Connors after the events of the original "Amazing Spider-Man." At most, Connors will remain in prison. But I don't even know about Dillon. There's an exceedingly high chance he could just walk, especially presuming he'd be teleported back to around the time he was originally killed, and the world would think he's dead.
