+* Cole is added to the level for Player 2, with his respective additional heartbeat row. Cole has the exact same heartbeat as Nicole, with Player 1 taking control of the latter. He stands in the spot where his solid-color outline would normally appear in the 1P version of this level.

-* During the level, several customers can be seen shopping and drinking at the cafe as the level progresses, all of whom are represented by solid-color, transparent figures. One figure in particular can be seen standing near the counter, with long pants, a hoodie, and a cap. This figure starts being visible near the middle of the level, and is the last customer to leave. Due to the clothing of this figure and the fact that he stays behind the longest out of any other customer, it can be assumed that this customer is [[Cole]] himself. This is supported by Nicole's positive views on him, which she expresses after the level is over.
+* Several customers, represented by dark-colored, transparent outlines, can be seen entering and exiting the cafe in still poses as the level progresses. One of these outlines can be seen standing near the counter, where Nicole is working. The outline is wearing a hat, a hoodie and long pants. This person stays behind the longest out of any customer. Due to the aforementioned factors, it can be assumed that this outline is representing [[Cole]]. This figure is standing in a position which makes it easy to talk to Nicole, supporting her dialogue encountered upon clearing the level, where she mentions that someone wearing a red hoodie is the only person who talks to her regularly. Later on during [[One Slip Too Late]], a close-up of Cole's phone can be seen, and for a few frames he's shown to have taken a picture of Nicole sleeping on the cafe counter. The picture appears near-identical to what one would see if standing in the outline's position. Additionally, in this level's 2P mode, Cole is added, taking the place of this outline. This serves as near direct confirmation that the outline in question is indeed Cole.

+* The flavor text of "cooked, served, delicious!" for achieving S-rank on this level may be a reference to the indie game [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cook,_Serve,_Delicious! Cook, Serve, Delicious!], known for its stress-inducing rush hours; a fitting parallel to the rush hour Nicole deals with.
