Behind the scenes

  • The episode title is a play on the 1978 film The Odd Job.
  • The last time the girls saw Jemmica was in "Frenemy."
  • Buttercup gained aura powers in "Power Up Puff."
  • When Jemmica says "I love it when a plan comes together," she is alluding to the signature catchphrase of Hannibal on the 1980s TV series The A Team.
  • Poseidon's performance in 10 Angry Butlers is a parody of the 1957 film 12 Angry Men.
