Behind the scenes

  • Bubbles thought Buttercup was over the Gangreen Gang when she thinks she wished for them, which is a reference to Buttercup's crush on Ace in "Buttercrush."
  • Officer Stec is named after art director, Paul Stec.
  • Sedusa lost her hair in "Something's a Ms."

Errors

  • Buttercup wasn't interested in the entire Gangreen Gang, only Ace.
  • It's unclear how much time has passed between this episode and "Something's a Ms." It could not be that long, which is why Sedusa is still bald, but "Bought and Scold," "Divide and Conquer," "See Me, Feel Me, Gnomey," and "Night Mayor" also acted like Sedusa still treated her as normal.
    • Sedusa also acts like she was made permanently bald, even though Ms. Bellum just simply cut her hair off. Several years later, she is depicted with her hair in the post-series special "The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!"
