Max Gibson appears for the first time.

This episode has a reference to Arkham Asylum from Batman The Animated Series, although the closed captioning misspells it as "Archam."

Ms. McGinnis: A harmless little tattoo is hardly comparable to having antlers stuck on your head.
Matt: Terry doesn't need splicing, Mom, because he's already a donkey. (edit) (after beating up two splicers on the train)
Terry: So, will you petting zoo rejects be needing a doctor, or a vet? (edit) Sam: Right now, I just can't relax, knowing that Cuvier and his guinea pigs are out there, doing God knows what.
Barbara: I bet I could relax you. (edit) Batman: (to Cuvier) I fixed your pet stock, now it's just you and me. So why not come on out and fight me man to freak show? (edit) Barbara: You can't live a life of narrow escapes forever. It's a thankless existence, and the rewards are small, if any.
Terry: Well, sometimes the small rewards are the best ones. (edit)

Reborn to be wild
This is the slogan used by the Chimera Institute. This is a play on words on the title of the hit 1968 Steppenwolf song, Born to Be Wild. The song has since been covered several times, featured in several films, and is often used in pop culture to denote a biker appearance or mentality. (edit)
