    • Looney Tunes Peter sets a trap for Lois much like Wile E Coyote does for the Roadrunner in Looney Tunes. He used a miscarriage kit made by the fictional company ACME, and many similar scenes and sound cues from the original cartoon are used as well.

    • Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo Peter hires Turbo and Ozone from Breakin' to breakdance on Lois's stomach. He claims they're doing it to save the rec center from being torn down. This is the plotline to the sequel film Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo.
