Question: When the "hotel" left Danny just before the boiler set on fire, why didn't he use that chance to leave the building?

Question: A while ago, I read about a deleted scene in which Draco is having a conversation with a friend, who was not Crabbe or Goyle. It was noteworthy because this friend would be someone whom Draco treats like an equal (instead of harassing them, bossing them around, etc.). I think it was going to be in the Deathly Hallows book or movie, but I am not sure. Was it ever written and/or filmed?

Question: When Amy protests as Dan picks her up and jumps into the water with her, we cut to an underwater view of them plunging into the water together, and then Amy freezing up moments later. What happened that maybe triggered her the moment they went underwater?

Question: At the end of the film, and just after the shootout between Andre Davis and Captain McKenna, we can glimpse blood on McKenna's badge as he's knelt down, seriously injured. Is this a reference to Andre's previous statement that "There cannot be blood on the badge"?

Question: At the end, when Peter Ward was saying goodbye to his family for the last time, were they the ghosts of his family, or was he imagining the whole conversation as a result of never having gotten to say goodbye in real life?

Question: When we first see Michael Burry at his desk, practicing drumming, he is wearing a T-shirt with what looks like a complicated mathematical formula on it. Can anyone identify this?
