Behind the scenes

The episode begins with a recap of the previous episode.
This is the second episode to include its own episode title card. It uses "Part II," although the DVD says "Part 2."
This episode reveals that Reducto works for Freezoid, Zarog, & Skon.
This is the first time a judge's office has been seen.
Harvey's middle initials are revealed to be "RR," although in "Droopy Botox," it's "T."
Dynomutt isn't referred to by name on-screen, although he is credited as such.
Birdhouse is a parody of Penthouse.

Errors
