- The Andromeda Annihilator, who Cadet shares a cell with, resembles the Shropshire Slasher from "Deduce, You Say." edit »
- Bugs Bunny's catchphrase "Of course, you realize, this means war" (from which the episode title is taken) is actually an allusion itself. The Oscar winning rabbit is quoting Groucho Marx in the movie "Duck Soup". Groucho plays the role of Rufus T. Firefly, the president of Freedonia who eventually leads his nation to war with the neighbouring nation of Sylvania on the flimsiest of excuses. edit »
- Cadet is sent to the Wontonaguanamo Bay penal colony, a parody of the name of the real Guantanamo Bay penal colony. edit »
- I.Q. Hi has a brother, Psy-Q Hi, who's the Protectorate physicatrist. edit »
- The title is based on Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck's famous line "Of course you realize, this means war" from the old Looney Tune cartoons. edit »
- DD: Bucket head.
X-2: Earth creature. edit » - News Reporter: Come on out, Dodgers!
Cadet: Don't worry, Captain Dodgers. I'll take the blame.
DD: What a pal! And don't worry, if things get hairy, I'll stick up for ya! (News Reporter and crew breaks into the room) He did it! He did it! edit » - DD: Ever since Cadet's been sent away, I've felt so run Down, listless ...
I.Q. Hi: Dodgers, you've been promoted!
DD: Oh, boy, a salary boost! The cool costume with a funny hat! edit » - Star Johnson: The Queen will stop you!
Z-9: The Queen shall do as I tell her to do, or she won't be Queen for long ... edit » - (After he's given defense codes to DD)
I.Q.: Hello, Acme Travel Agency? I'd like to book a flight to Alpha Centaurii. One way ought to do it. edit »
- n/a: Wontonaguanamo Bay penal colony
The Cadet is held at this place. In the 1991 film Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy are held at Rura Penthe penal colony. edit » - Star Johnson: Chewie?
This is a reference to Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi. Han Solo is thrown into a prison cell where he hears howling. He asks "Chewie?" in the same tone of voice. edit » - Dodgers' pronunciation of "sabotage" (and Cadet's response) are a reference to William Shatner's pronunciation during a Star Trek recording session. edit »
- Character: Walter Carbonite
The character is a play on Walter Cronkite, a famous news anchor. edit » - Cadet: Th-th-that's all, folks.
This is an obvious reference to a phrase that Porky Pig often said at the tail end of Looney Tunes shorts. edit »
