Five and Lila's Unnecessary Romance
Five and Lila got lost in the multiversal subway for that exact amount of time, and during their isolation, they started a romantic relationship. As a big fan of Five, I didn’t expect this from him, especially since their relationship felt unnecessary and out of place. Lila was still married to his brother, Diego, which made this situation even more problematic and disrespectful. For the past three seasons, Five has been shown as a strong and mature character, despite being physically 13 years old while Lila was an adult. Mentally, he was almost twice her age, which added another layer of discomfort to their relationship. This also created tension between Five and Diego, leading to a fight in the last episode when the family was trying to stop Ben from destroying the world.
Baby Shark
The "Baby Shark" song was very entertaining along with all the members of the Umbrella Academy. In one scene, the popular children’s song was playing on Diego's van while they were traveling to find Ben. The song kept playing on a loop because the van's music system was faulty. The control panel was broken, so they couldn’t change the song even if they wanted to. It was quite entertaining to watch.
The Character J for Jene and G for Gene

The Sacrifies
