• "Ill" (#209) showed Lawndale's hospital, whose name looked a lot like Cedars of Lawndale. Unfortunately, the sign was too blurry to be conclusive. Daria confirms the name in this episode. [edit]

• (studying Jane's mural)
  Jodie: See how the hands grip the steering wheel? Like he still thinks he can try to pull out of it.
  Mack: Yeah. Maybe he could, if his arms were attached. [edit]
• Sandi: Where are all the guys? I mean, how long does it take them to change?!
  Tiffany: I heard a bunch of cars leaving earlier.
  Sandi: Well, why didn't you say anything?
  Tiffany: I figured they belonged to a really big family. [edit]
• Brittany: Wow, Jodie, no wonder you're an honor student!
  Jodie: Yeah. All that note-taking and studying is just to kill time between my friends romantic crises. [edit]

• Muriel and Ernest Hemingway
  
  Actress Muriel Hemingway is the granddaughter of author Ernest Hemingway (The Old Man and the Sea), hence Stacy's confusion. [edit]
• Jodie: Nuttin', honey.
  
  Jodie's "nuttin', honey" comment is a reference to the old commercials for Kellogg's Nut & Honey cereal, which used the same tag line. [edit]
• Close Encounters of the Third Kind
  
  Jake making a house out of his mashed potatoes is a reference to the 1979 movie Close Encounters of the Third Kind, directed by Steven Spielberg. [edit]
