  • When Charlotte goes back to the steam room by herself, you can see (in the shot where she's opening the door and in the shot where she removes her arm) that she is wearing white pasties. edit »
  • It's revealed that Big married Natasha in this episode. edit »
  • When they're in the steam room you can see that Samantha's wearing a flesh colored bra edit »
  • Charlotte: I don't have a goody drawer.
    Carrie: Oh, everybody has a goody drawer.
    Samantha: I have a goody closet. edit »
  • Carrie: You know who those women marry? The Roman numeral guys.
    Charlotte: (reading from the paper) Charles Duffy Anderson IV.
    Carrie: Ding-ding-ding!
    Samantha: I find the higher the number the worse the sex. I went out with somebody III who couldn't even get it up.
    Miranda: Imagine how bad Henry VIII must have been.
    Carrie: Yeah, you give him head, he cuts yours off! edit »
  • Charlotte: Well at least you have a boyfriend.
    Miranda: That doesn't mean I'm getting married, it means I'm getting laid. edit »
  • Carrie: I will never be the woman with the perfect hair, who can wear white and not spill on it, and chair committees, and write thank you notes, and I can't feel bad about that. edit »
  • Carrie: I just can't believe she opened your goody drawer. I mean, everyone knows the night stand is private.
    Charlotte: What do you have in there?
    Miranda: You know the usual, condoms, vibrator....
    Carrie: Massage oils, cigarettes. edit »
  • Carrie: I'm like freaking Annie, get your clothes on.

    Carrie is embarrassed about Natasha seeing her in her underwear. Her joke is a reference to the musical Annie, Get Your Gun, which is about Annie Oakley. edit »
  • The episode title is a play on the 1958 movie Attack of the 50 Foot Woman. The woman in the movie grows to a towering height after an encounter with aliens. edit »
