Fan Theories

For theories based on spoilers, see Spoiler:Theories.

• While the new Company is being formed, Angela will have flashbacks of how the old company was formed, like how Kaito got involved with the Company or how Arthur and Angela met each other, and how they snuck it around Linderman, because 1961 portrays that Linderman and Angela met each other at Coyote Sands but War Buddies, Part 5 portrays that Arthur and Angela were married and had Nathan but Linderman and Arthur hadn't met each other.
