  • While piloting the aircraft in the opening scene, the pilot tells Dr. Price that he wished he would have had the aircraft during the last war. Since the setting for Batman Beyond is five decades into the future, and the pilot wouldn't be more than sixty years old, there must have been a war post-2010. edit »
  • After the two pilots are run over by the Jokerz's motorcycles, they are lying on the ground almost parallel to each other. When Dr. Price's team arrives on the scene, the two pilots are lying perpendicular to each other. edit »
  • The number of petals on the flower on the lead Joker's jacket changes from six petals to seven between scenes. edit »
  • Trivia: Two dozen burgers, fries, a couple gallons of shakes, and a Big Beefer costs 60 units at the Beefee Burger restaurant. edit »
  • Dr. Price is seen in a yellow suit when she is at the location of the theft. However, she is in a blue suit when she meets Batman. edit »
  • Many fans speculated that the skeleton in the ditch was in fact the Joker himself. The uncut version of Return of the Joker, however, makes it clear that the Joker's remains were buried beneath Arkham Asylum, not out in a ditch. edit »
  • The T's (a rival gang) make their first appearance; they won't return until "Where's Terry". edit »
  • Dr. Price: Are you all right?
    Batman: Nothing a few transplants won't cure. edit »
  • Coe: Scab, this is a UFO, isn't it?
    Scab: Wake up, Coe. All the writing is in English.
    Coe: You can read? edit »
  • Dr. Price: Listen to me. That vehicle is government property. You have to return it, now!
    Scab: Typical babe. I ain't even met you and you're already giving me orders. edit »
  • Pilot 1: The first thing they're going to do when they get back to Gotham is tell all their buds that Martians are coming.
    Pilot 2: Second thing. First they've got to get their pants cleaned. edit »
  • Dr. Price: I'm addressing whoever stole the experimental vehicle.
    Scab: That'd be me.
    Dr. Price: Who are you?
    Scab: Who are you? You sound hot, are you hot? edit »
