123) Morphing is never totally logical. Things happen in weird, unpredictable ways.

123A) Unless you're an estreen, that is. Then you end up looking like an angel when demorphing from a bird.

124) Rachel and Cassie have the same tastes in boys.

     125) Make sure you pay attention in school, because you never know when the lesson may come in handy for a mission.

     125.1) Females of any race tend to distract the eager school boy.

125.2) The same goes for males of any race distracting the school girl.

126) It's safe to assume that no matter the race or species, boys and girls will still get distracted and/or fall asleep in school.

127) Anytime Rachel says "let's do it" in that insane, suicidal, rock-and-roll way of hers, a fight can't be far away.

128) When Visser 3 shouted "stop," you stopped. Period.

131) According to the Yeerks, there are 5 distinct classes of alien.

       Class One aliens are physically unfit for infestation, like the Skrit Na, Mortrons, and Hawjabrans.
       Class Two aliens can be infested but suffer from serious physical drawbacks, like the Taxxons or Gedds.
       Class Three aliens are physically fit to be infested, but are few in number and can't be bred quickly, like the Hork Bajir.
       Class Four aliens are perfect for infestation in every way, but are to formidable a challenge, like the Andalites.
       Class Five aliens exist in vast numbers, breed quickly, are physically perfect for infestation, and are unable to resist the Yeerks.
       Humans were originally thought to be a class five species, but were later moved down to Class Four.
