Notes

Villains: Maximus and Infantor (edit)
Title picture:

A Christmas tree with ornaments on it that look like the characters from the show (edit)
We learn that Maximus and Minimus have known each other since they were babies. (edit)
Betty's grandpa is named Jimmy. (edit)
The ringtone for Betty's Grandma's cellphone is the show's theme song. (edit)
We can now assume, according to the flashback, that Maximus and Minimus are both about 30 years old. (edit)
Believe it or not, the scene where Betty finds out she's talking to her Grandpa marks the first time she has cried, or at least it's the first time tears welled up in her eyes. (edit)
In the flashback sequence with Beotrixo and Grandpa, you'll notice that Max Sr. looks a LOT different than he does in the episode Like Father, Like Scum. Either the years were really tough on him, or Maximus's mother had a secret that she didn't share... (edit)
In this episode, Admiral DeGill, Sparky and X-5 all use Betty's catchphrase "Reporting For Duty!" (edit)
Betty's Grandfather was gone from earth for 30 years (edit)
Noah, Sarah and Megan do not appear at all in this episode (edit)
Paloma, Penelope (And her dad) as well as Betty's school principal all appear in this episode. (edit)
Chrismas Special (edit)
This episode was one hour long (including commercials) (edit)

Quotes

Betty: You have to come with me. It's not safe here.
Grandpa: I have nowhere else to go. All I have is this picture. (Shows Betty the picture of him with her grandma)
Betty: Wait, I have the same picture. (Takes out her picture)
Grandpa: You know Bea?
Betty: She's my grandma. (Gasp) Gramps? Is that you?
(Grandpa nods his heas yes. Betty cries and goes up and hugs him. A hologram of Sparky appears)
Betty: Sparky, this is my grandpa.
Sparky: Talk about your small universes. (edit)
Zulia: Oh, I hope at least Sparky's wearing his clean underwear! (cast stares at her) I mean, unless he's hit by a car or something! (edit)
Sparky (after the fight with the Blood Monk): Ma, I was handling it myself!


Zulia: I know, sweetie, go save the world. (edit)

Trivia

add »
There is a slight continuity error in this episode. In the episode The Trouble With Triplets, Betty's dad claimed that Granny was his mother, not Betty's mom's. That all changed in this episode, however. (edit)
When Betty is in the mall at the begining, if you look closely you can see a plushie of Sparky in a woman's shopping cart. (edit)

Allusions

NO-L 9:

This is a parpody to the word Noel, which is how you say Christmas in French. (edit)
Betty's grandpa is played by William Shatner. Who is famous for his role as Capitan Kirk in Star trek. (edit)
