Line 45:

*A superintendent is a person who oversees or directs some work, enterprise, establishment, organization, district, etc.; supervisor, which is similar to the Superintendent's programming. It is also a senior police rank above Chief Inspector in many countries.

*While the Superintendent is rebooting during the "Keep It Clean" video, the words ''"Maddie, where are you?"'' appear for a fraction of a second, although during [[Sadie's Story]] it can be seen as ''"Sadie, where are you?"''. It was believed that "Maddie" is a reference to [[Wikipedia:Disappearance of Madeleine McCann|Madeleine McCann]], a little girl who famously vanished without a trace in 2007 while on vacation with her family in Portugal.

*It's possible that the AI of New Mombasa is not named "~~The~~ Superintendent," but that Superintendent is in fact its class. This is most notable in the later audio-logs when [[Kinsler]] says to an Officer ''"It hacked a Superintendent-class AI!"'' in regards to the [[Huragok]] [[Vergil]]. This would mean that Vergil is the name of the AI, with a subroutine built-in to help Sadie, and the class of city-management AI would be Superintendent ~~AI's~~. Civilians may call it the Superintendent for every city that has one.

*Players can have a picture of the Superintendent as their character emblem for [[Firefight]].

*The security cameras of the Superintendent are heavily reminiscent of those of HAL 9000, the infamous computer from ''2001: A Space Odyssey.'' Both cameras are vertical rectangular panels with a round “eye” in the lower center, though HAL’s eye is red, while the Superintendent’s is blue.
