(Kim and Ron are running from a group of people)
Group 1: (chanting) Pain! Pain! Pain! Pain! Pain! Pain!
Ron: They're getting closer, KP!
Kim: This way!
(Kim drags Ron into an alley)
Rufus: Look out!
(Ron runs into a garbage bin, but doesn't stop)
Kim: (from behind a car) Ron, over here! I think we lost 'em.
(a dog barks at them from inside the car)
Ron: Tainted slobber!
(a new group of people arrives)
Group 2: Steel! Steel! Steel!
Kim: Come on!
(Ron tries to open a door, but it is locked)
Ron: We'll never make it!
Kim: There's gotta be another way in!
(the first group also arrives, and they both chant. Kim shoots her grappler)
Kim: Going up.
Ron: Come on, Kim. We've got to get inside! (edit) (After falling through the ventilation duct and into Middleton Mall)
Kim: Next time we come to the mall let's stick to the main entrance, okay? (edit) (In the Middleton Mall)
Kim: You know, I usually like to go home and change after a mission.
Ron: No time for that, KP!
Kim: Okay, why?
Ron: The first 100 fans not be trampled get a free GWA-tour T-shirt!
Kim: GWA?
Ron: How can you not know the Global Wrestling Association? It's only the most excellent sporting organization in the world! Steel Toe rules! Yeah! (edit) (In the mall, at the GWA appearance)
Fans: (chanting) Pain! Pain! Pain!
Kim: All this just because some wrestlers are making a mall appearance?
Ron: Not just some. Pain King and Steel Toe! Pain King's got a bionic eye. Don't even think about looking into it. Or you'll writhe on the floor in total pain!
Kim: And I suppose Steel Toe actually has steel toes?
Ron: No, that's just a publicity gimmick. They're more like titanium, actually! A freak industrial accident.
Rufus: Yeah!
Kim: Right. (edit) (at the GWA appearance)
Jackie: Listen up, Middleton! Are you ready for action?
Everyone: Yeah!
Jackie: Are you ready for head-bumping, chest-thumping, back-breaking, ground-shaking confrontation?
Ron: Yeah, baby!
Kim: Is that Pain guy?
Ron: Uh, no! That's Jackie Oakes. Founder of the GWA.
Jackie: Here's Pain King!
(Pain King enters the scene)
Pain King fans: (chanting) Pain! Pain! Pain!
Jackie: And Steel Toe!
(Steel Toe arrives on the scene)
Steel Toe Fans: (chanting) Steel! Steel! Steel!
Ron: Drop em, Steel!
Kim: Okay, I'm in the mall and I'm not shopping. What's wrong with this picture?
(She tries to leave, but Ron stops her)
Ron: Wait, wait, wait! Wrestling is more than two guys beating on each other! It's also a war of words.
Pain King: You are going down!
Steel Toe: No, you're going down!
Pain King: No, you're going down!
Steel Toe: No, you're going down!
Kim: Yeah, they're poets. Look, Club Banana's doing a tie-in with the museum's Cleopatra's Closet exhibit. That's where I'll be. (edit)

When Kim first meets Monique, Monique is wearing a green top, but at the register, Monique is wearing a red top.
(edit) This is the only episode in which Monique's eyes are little black dots. In every other episode, she has whites surrounding her pupils. (edit) When Jackie destroys the Pain King banner in the crowd, the man in the bottom-right corner disappears for about 1 frame (right as the laser hits the banner). (edit) Jackie makes note of wearing "open-toe sandals" before the transformation. The Jackal is barefoot, but he gets the sandals back after he changes back. (edit) Since Monique just moved to Middleton, why would she get a job at Club Banana before even starting school there? (edit)

West Side Story:
The scene where Kim and Ron are surrounded by the two groups of fans in the beginning of the episode is similar to West Side Story. (edit) NWA:
GWA is a reference to NWA, a group of small wrestling companies set up across the country with one champion being champion for every one of the companies. (edit) Kim: "I think this is the beginning of a very weird friendship"
This closing line is very similar to the closing line of Michael Curtiz's 1942 b/w film Casablanca: "I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." (edit) WWE:
The GWA is an imitation of the WWE, a professional wrestling organization. (edit) Professional Wrestling:
The voices of Steel Toe and Pain King are Bill Goldberg (for the old WCW) and Andrew Martin (A.K.A. Test from the WWE), respectively. (edit)
