- (The bagels fall to the floor) Abed: Thirteen. This is an allusion to a scene from the 1988 movie Rain Man: Raymond (Dustin Hoffman) accidentally spills a box of toothpicks on the floor and immediately (and correctly) states that 246 of them fell.

- Sesame Street Abed and Troy portray Bert and Ernie respectively in their bit in the credits. They also move their arms and eat as if they were muppets. This allusion is especially apt as the characters' relationship is often referred to throughout the series as quite homosexual. Bert and Ernie are often thought to have a similar relationship, although nothing of the sort is ever said blatantly out loud.

- The Color Of Money Jeff showboating while playing billiards to the strains of "Werewolves Of London" is a reference to the 1986 movie The Color Of Money, starring Paul Newman and Tom Cruise.
