Behind the scenes

Mojo becomes a mafia (or "mofia") boss with accompanying movie references such as when Mojo says, "Have you said hello to my little friend?" is a paraphrase of "Say hello to my little friend," the line of Tony Montana in the 1983 film Scarface, and "I'm going to make you an offer you can't refuse" is a paraphrase of "I'm gonna make him an offer he can't refuse," spoken by Don Vito Corleone in the 1972 film The Godfather.

Errors

The voice credits list Tara Charendoff as "Boy #3," although it's more like "Boy #5."
