QUOTES (7)
ADD QUOTES-
(talking about the movie they're in) Steve: Not exactly a Groucho Marx comedy, is it? (see also Notes)
-
(meta-reference) Steve: What happens if he does a sequel? Or a series? We've got a lifetime job.
-
(talking about the little people as actors) Manfred: Can they act? Egor: Does it matter? Manfred: Of course not!
-
Manfred: If I could afford a guard, I'd have him throw you out.
-
Egor: The memory of the public is short. The memory of producers is even shorter.
-
Guard: You're Egor Crull, and you've been dead for years. Egor: You thought I was dead? Guard: Yeah, at the box office.
-
Valerie: Put us down, you fathead!

NOTES (4)
ADD NOTES-
Steve's reference to the murder-mystery movie they're in being "not exactly a Groucho Marx comedy" doesn't make much sense. It's presumably an in-joke reference to Groucho Marx, whose sister-in-law Dee Hartford appeared in the episode Target: Earth, and who himself funded much of producer Irwin Allen's early career.
-
Baby's cage looks suspiciously like the smaller-sized cage that the Giants often put the Earthlings in.
-
A parody of the movie-making business, including some of the Hollywood goings-on of the series itself. The use of the little people in lieu of stunt actors is probably a jab at the fact Allen rarely used stunt doubles for his real-life actors either.
-
Series regular Heather Young is not in this episode.
