Behind the scenes

• Sebben & Sebben were connected to the internet in the previous episode, appropriately titled, "We Got the Internet."
• Gillian, Miriam, and Dog with a Hat use the social media platforms TikTok, Instagram, and what looks like Reddit, respectively.
• Evie joined the team in the previous episode.
• The date on Brian's GoPro is July 23.
• When Paul rings Helen's doorbell, it's the same tune the doorbells make in The Jetsons.

Errors

• Birdgirl corrects the guy at the beginning that Birdcat is male, but then uses "she" as a pronoun when Birdcat attacks him.
• Ironically, Topple Nation could get everything on Judy except for her being Birdgirl.
