In the past, the Huntsclan all wore beige-colored outfits, rather then the purple they wear today. There were also two Huntsmasters back then.
(edit)
Trixie and Spud do not appear in this episode.
(edit)
This was the first episode of season two to air in the UK, on 2nd January, 2007.
(edit)
We find out Grandpa used to always not like Jake's dad, and probably still doesn't. Though in "Feeding Frenzy" and "Bite Father, Bite Son" he starts to show some respect towards him
(edit)
Jake and his younger Dad are very much alike: both beatbox, both break dance, and both fall down stairs then claim there okay.
(edit)
Gramps: The caged lion does not roar because it is caged. It roars because... Iyaa!
Jake: That's a new one.
Gramps: No, it's my back! I fell off a ladder the day we opened up the shop!
Fu Dog: Tell me about it. I'm the one you fell on! (edit) Teen-Jonathan: It's my latest breakdance move, sweet potato. I call it my puff-o-lackin' electric zappin' boogaloo sluggin' flip-tastic shovel. Whattaya think. (edit) Young-Susan: I'll see you at the beach party tonight.
Young-Jonathan: Till then sugar num-nums! (Falls down the stairs) I'm okay!!
Jake: I'm amazed he made it to adulthood! (edit) Huntsman: For the last time, if you value your life, you will tell me everything you know.
Young-Jonathan: I will tell you, nothing!
Huntsman: Very well. (Opens up a secret door filled with weapons and a trapped door on the floor with a monster. Jonathan is scared.)
Young-Jonathan: I'll tell you everything! Okay in the 10th grade I filled my teacher's trunk with green bean salad. (the huntsmen look confused) In the 7th grade I drove my lawn mower over our sister's inflatable pool and blamed it on rats. And in 6th grade I took all the money I made trick-or-treating for the less fortunate and spent it at the arcade!! (edit) Jake: Uhh...my name is....Beyonce, Timberlake! I'm the Canadian dragon, eh?
Young-Susan: Beyonce Timberlake!? What kind of bogus name is Beyonce Timberlake!?
Young-Gramps: Perhaps the name of your future husband. (moves Jake's and Susan's hands together)
Jake & Susan: Uhh!
Young-Susan: As if! Dad, I still love Johnathan!
Young-Gramps: I understand my Lotus flower, a broken heart needs time to heal. Well times up! (whistles for a taxi, pays the cab driver money) Jone's Beach, keep the meter running and half them back by midnight! (edit)

Shouldn't Young Gramps realize the Fu Dog with Jake isn't the same Fu Dog from his time?
(edit)
The 1980's Fu Dog seemed to be quite different from his present-time version but Season 1 episode 'Fu and Tell' shows Fu Dog on his present-time look during all his flashback battles against Yan-Yan.
(edit)
Jake falls to the stands in his human form after getting beaten by the Huntsman. This means that the Huntsman saw him and now he could probably knows his identity!
(edit)
GOOF: In the beginning of the episode, Susan tell Jake that they were seniors in high school.yet when Jake and Fu Dog go to the past, Jake says"Hey look its my school!" but in the episode 'dreamscape" Jake says he doesn't want to stay back in 7th grade! so it means its a middle school, but Susan says it's a high school.
Reply. Well maybe the school is like 6-12? Or maybe it was a high school and they changed it too a middle school, ever think of that? (edit) In the last credit with the Mona Lisa you can see that Mona Lisa has eye brows, however, in actuality the mona lisa had no eyebrows. (edit)

This episode is similar to the Phil of the Future episode "Not-So-Great Great Great Grandpa", where Phil almost keeps him, his mother, and sister from being born by disrupting the meeting of his Great Great Great Grandfather with his future Grandmother.
(edit)
This episode is very similar to attack of the Killer Beebes, an episode on Kim Possible. Ron gets kidnapped and Kim finds out that Wade has Ron micro-chipped. Johnathan has been kidnapped and Susan finds out that Lao Shi has been following Johnathan on their dates using a magic compass.
(edit)
Jake's alias for 1986, Beyonce Timberlake, is a misture of the names of two well-known singers: Beyonce Knowles and Justin Timberlake.
(edit)
The "Hero of the Hourglass" is a little similar to the Danny Phantom episode "Masters of All Time".
(edit)
Fu Dog: You are correct, Sir
