Title: Sherry Darlin'
The episode title is a reference to the song Sherry Darling by Bruce Springsteen. The song tells about a young man's frustration with having to help his mother when all he wants to do is be with his girlfriend, Sherry. edit »
In the opening scene, James tells Krystal that the televangelist program on TV is a scam. This is a reference to televangelist Jim Bakker who in 1989 was convicted of fraud and conspiracy for stealing donations and defrauding investors. edit »
Sherry Stephens: You can see Nirvana any time.

In 1989 (the year this episode's crime took place), Nirvana had released their first album, Bleach. Presumably the tickets Sherry mentions are for a Nirvana concert. edit »
