The hat Tucker wears on his head is revealed to be a beret.

Tucker's screen name, "FryerTuck" is again referred to in "Beauty Marked."
-
The music that plays during the title screen is the same music that played during the title screen of "Mystery Meat."
-
Danny's screen name was "Ghost Boy," which is an odd coincidence, since that is the name that Paulina tends to call Danny since the episode, "Lucky in Love."

-
This episode confirms the average grade that each member of the Fenton family gets: 1) Maddie - A. 2) Jack - B-. 3) Danny - C. 4) Jazz - A.
-
We learn that Danny's hairstyle when he is in ghost mode is constant, meaning that even when his hairstyle in human mode is completely different, when he goes ghost, it will return to its normal style.

The way how Mr. Lancer called himself "Mr. Lancer" after winning Doomed seems to be an homage to Butch Hartman's other show, The Fairly OddParents, where Timmy Turner's teacher, Denzel Crocker, sometimes refers to himself as "Mr. Crocker."
-
Running Gags: 1) Technus giving off "hip" sayings. 2) Danny and Tucker thinking Sam knows nothing about Doomed because she's a girl. 3) Someone saying, "Ignoring that."
-
When Danny first goes ghost in this episode, the rings that appear vertically circles Danny's body and move horizontally in opposite directions. Usually when Danny transforms, the rings begin at his waist and move vertically in opposite directions. He first did this in "Fanning the Flames."

-
The style of the "F" that Mr. Lancer gave Danny on his English test, a blank paper with a huge red "F" on it, is the same style how Mr. Denzel Crocker from Butch Hartman's other show, The Fairly OddParents gives his students F grades.
-
Look Hard: On the blackboard, there are some trigonometrical equations, including the quadratic formula and Pythagorean Theorem (which is the same equation Jazz was trying to teach Dash in "Attack of the Killer Garage Sale," where Technus was coincidentally the main villain).

Sam seems to be really good at basketball, although in "What You Want," she claimed that she hates sports.
-
Danny does not catch a ghost in the Fenton Thermos in this episode.
-
Opener: A kid is running virtually through the computer game, Doomed. He is then zapped by an extremely good player named Chaos. Tucker tries to zap Chaos, but Chaos dodges and hits him. Tucker and Danny try to run, but Chaos throws a grenade and it explodes, giving them both a "Game Over." Danny takes off the Fenton Helmet he used as his game controller in the lab and throws it. It hits the Fenton Portal's "on" button and it opens, and then Technus flies out.

Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Technus: Power Cube The power cube that Technus got in Doomed was similar to super mushrooms on the Mario Bros. games. Both make the user larger and more powerful and, like both, when you are hit, you shrink in size.
-
Episode Title: Teacher of the Year Teacher of the Year is an award given to teachers who put a lot of effort in teaching their students.
-
Tucker: You need to get the seven keys to the apocalypse. The seven keys to the apocalypse is likely a parody of the "seven chaos emeralds" in the famed video game, Sonic the Hedgehog, where you get the chaos emeralds to gain ultimate power, but here, it gains you ultimate access to the World Wide Web.
-
Doomed: Sound Effects Some of the sound effects in Doomed are very similar to the popular platform game, Super Mario Bros.'s sound effects.
-
Danny: (To Tucker) You distract him with an L2 Throttle right maneuver. "L2" is the name of a button on the PlayStation and PlayStation 2 controller.
-
Danny: (To Mr. Lancer) In the poem, "The Tyger," why does the author rhyme the words "eye" and "symmetry?" "The Tyger" is a popular poem by William Blake that was written in 1794. Danny is referring to (regarding the rhyme scheme of "eye" and "symmetry) the first and last verses in the poem: Tyger, tyger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? To answer Danny's question, the letter "y" in British English during the 1800s always sounded like the "i" in the word, "kite."
-
Video Game World: Level 0 When Danny, Sam, and Tucker defeated Technus, they shut him in "Level 0;" a glitch in the game that can not be escaped. This is highly likely to be a reference to Super Mario Bros.'s "Minus World," a secret glitch level that is inescapable. There is a glitch in world 1-2 in the warp zone that at least one of the pipes leads to Minus world. Before you enter the green pipe at the end, crush all the block above you. then stand next to the green pipe and face left. Press R on the controller and jump. You will jump backwards through the left-corner block. Minus world is world 2-2, but the pipe at the end takes you to the beginning of the level. You can learn more about Minus world at www.themushroomkingdom.net. Go to the "The Games" section and click NES. At the top is Super Mario Bros. Click on it and click on Bugs/Glitches at the bottem of the page.

Danny: (Walks on the side of a building onto a gargoyle)
When Danny walks on the side of a building onto a gargoyle, this references two famous superheroes, Spider-Man and Batman. Spider-Man has the ability to walk on walls; Batman is often seen perched on a gargoyle.
