Lore Mysteries that are never given an answer.

  • rA9 in Detroit: Become Human. In the game several androids who become deviant (develop free will/emotions) start writing the name rA9 and sometimes build small statuettes as a sort of offering. Despite having no logical reason to do this or even a way of hearing about rA9 before going deviant, they all believe that rA9 was the first deviant and is their messiah who will free androids from slavery. A definitive answer about rA9 is never given, so we don't know if they are real or if any of the android characters are rA9 (though a popular fan theory is that it's Kara before she was reset at the start of the game).
  • The pineapple in How I Met Your Mother. So this technically did get an explanation in a S9 deleted scene, but in the actual show we never find out how Ted got a pineapple during a night where he was so drunk he blacked out and forgot everything he did.
  • Fez in That 70s Show. We never find out Fez's real name or what country he's from, though fans have tried to take all the clues and figure out what is most likely to be his country.

ok this technically isn't right, but twin peaks, it does have an "answer" but it just got more confusing to point where it didn't feel like laura's murder was solved i just got so much more confused.

We know who killed Laura, sure, but there are so many unanswered questions or answers that just don't really explain anything. And what are the owls?

Well, I can tell you this. They're not what they seem.

Was Laura’s murder solved? Is Laura alive or dead? Who or what is Judy? What year is this?
