In the third season episodes, whenever Emmy opens the box containing the dragon scale, you can see a reflection of Max, Enrique, and Emmy's faces in it.
Enrique: Thanks for that amazing time in Dragon Land. Emmy: De nada. But no telling anybody.
Zak: Ah, anybody can make a mistake. Wheezie makes 'em constantly. Wheezie: Sure do... huh?
Enrique: Where are we now? Ord: Don't know, Enrique, some kind of garden? Cassie: And it's full of knuckerholes.
Zak: (regarding a knuckerhole) It's getting away! Wheezie: Not without us, it isn't. Prepare to dive!
Ord: I went through the forest before and I can do it again... I hope.
Zak: Okay, now I'm getting very worried.
Wheezie: Watch this, Enrique. Now you see us, now you... whoa, no knuckerhole.
Emmy: Isn't it great having a new friend living next door?
Enrique: I have an uncle who was a real-life cowboy, a vaquerao. I used to ride horses with him back home.
Enrique: It's just hard. Max: But you speak English really good. Emmy: Really well!
Enrique: So how does it work? Emmy: Well, Max and I hold the scale and say "I wish, I wish, with all my heart, to fly with dragons, in a land apart" and whoosh, we're there.
Enrique: What?! Whoa! No way! Imposible. That scale is magical.
Enrique: Dragones! Dragons! Sid: They're really very nice, you know.
Enrique: You have two heads. Zak: Yep. Hers does most of the talking. Mine does most of the thinking.
Zak: You can ride on us, Enrique. Enrique: Ride on a dragon's back?
Enrique: I just feel kind of sad. Emmy: Sometimes talking about sad things can help make the sadness go away.
Quetzal: Hola, Enrique. Something tells me you speak Spanish as I do, ¿sí? Enrique: Sí, sí.
Enrique: (to Max) You think they'd give me a tour of Dragon Land? Zak: We thought you'd never ask.
Zak: Eating and flying. I'm not sure I approve of that combination.
Zak: Wheezie and I never get anyone, until now! Wheezie: Lovvvvve it!
As with "Let's Start a Band," this episode was dedicated to Dragon Tales' fallen executive producer, Nina Elias-Bamberger. The dedication reads as follows: In Loving Memory of Nina Elias Bamberger
This episode was aired on many PBS stations at the end of a two-hour special called "Come Fly With Dragons." This special also included past episodes "To Fly with Dragons / The Forest of Darkness," " I Believe In Me / Bye, Bye Baby Birdie" and "Sky Pirates / Four Little Pigs". Quetzal appeared between episodes to talk about what was coming next and there were also scenes featuring real kids. This was the only Dragon Tales project, other than the special "Let's Start a Band!", in which real people were seen on-camera.
Gone this season: the tease "Coming up next on Dragon Tales," which had been used to start all earlier programs. Now the expanded underwriters' credits have discarded the tease.
The episodes for the third season feature a folk theme with folk music.
A new character, Enrique, is introduced in this episode. He's an only child of a single mother and moves in next door to Max and Emmy. He is soon introduced to Dragon Land.
First time that Dragon Tales breaks from format in a regular airing with a 22 minute story. This is not truly a 22 minute story, since it is still separated by a Dragon Tunes interstitial, but the second half picks up immediately where the first left off.
Dragon Tunes: "Make A New Friend" (Premiere!)
The second half of the episode is also known as "Mystery of the Missing Knuckerholes." However, the title display simply reads "To Fly With a New Friend, Pt. 2."
