A storm is headed their way but, Paula must deliver her novel to her agent before he leaves for vacation. The kids try to decide whether they want to make a mockumentary about making a movie or a mock-making-of a mockumentary movie, or just a movie.
Brendon and Josie play with marbles at the beginning of this episode, and Josie puts the marbles in her nose just like she did in "Mortgages and Marbles".

Brendon's Filmography:
"Movie History" – Mockumentary about a director who wants to make movie history and changes the name of his movie to "Movie History" to do so.
Edit
In this episode we find out that Jason has never told his family about Brendon, Melissa or the movies. He tells his mom when calling her during the storm and she asks where he is.

Coach McGuirk: There's a tornado coming. So I'm gonna stay down here with the baby, you guys go upstairs and play.
Melissa: Shouldn't we stay down here with you...
Coach McGuirk: No, it's not safe for everybody to be in the same place during a tornado, Melissa.
Melissa: But I thought you're supposed to go together.
Coach McGuirk: No! The rule is, Melissa, you separate.
Melissa: Are you sure?
Coach McGuirk: Yeah. If you get sucked into the funnel and everyone's separated then it's just like a fun ride. But if you're all in a group, in a cluster, you start banging into each other, then your heads collide and you die.
Edit
Coach McGuirk: Brendon, Melissa, Jason.
Brendon and Melissa: Yeah.
Coach McGuirk: Is that his name?
(Jason begins to look mad)Melissa: Yeah.
Edit
Star Wars:
The movie poster for "Movie History" (not the movie they're making, but the movie the people are making in the movie) is a parody of Star Wars.
Edit
Mr. Pielburger:
Brendon plays Mr. Pielburger, a homage to famous director, Steven Spielberg.
