Currently re-watching Person of Interest in preparation for the Contingency Con and noticing little details that I'd missed before.
Like in "Cura Te Ipsum," when Reese starts following Denton, there's a woman standing in front of his office building and Denton forcibly takes her briefcase and walks her in -- she's the woman talking at the support group about how she has to stay at her job because she can't afford to lose it, but feels like vomiting every time Denton (spoiler: her rapist) smiles at her. The selfie Denton took with her is also in the center of the screen when Finch is reviewing his "trophies."
Also, in the end credits for "Identity Crisis," two of the guys (I think the muscle that the fake Jordan Hester sends in at the end) are named Jekyll and Hyde. Little grace notes that really make the show sing!
You brought her with you? Every cop in that city is looking for that kid!

We're putting together our Presentation Poster programming for Contingency Con 2026 (July 31-August 2) and we'd love to see your work.
Submit your Presentation Posters
What?
A presentation poster is a visual showcase of a project, concept, or portfolio that is designed to be read without narration. A PowerPoint presentation, if you will.
Instead of an on-camera Zoom presentation, your Poster will be displayed in a dedicated Discord channel where attendees can browse it on their own schedule throughout the convention weekend. Your participation in that channel is encouraged but never required (explaining your poster, answering questions, etc.).
What can your poster be about? Anything POI related.
The evolution of the Machine as a character, as an ASI. Trends in shipping across the fandom. The surveillance technology the show predicted. A character arc. Production design. The Machine's ethics. The finale. The music. The philosophy of personhood. A tribute.
Presentation Poster Guidelines:
Up to 14 slides per poster
Square (1080×1080px) or landscape (1920×1080px / 16:9) only — no portrait
Minimum 1080px on the shortest side / Maximum 2048px on the longest side
All images in your set must be the same dimensions as each other
Do not mix aspect ratios within one poster set
All ratings and content types welcome; please include content notes for anything that may need them
Deadline: July 20, 2026 Presentation Posters go live in our Discord on opening day of Contingency Con, July 31.
