ADD NOTES
- Giant Steps is among the few episodes that shows Mike is afraid of spiders.
  EDIT SHARE
- Metaphorically, the Giant in the first short represents the coming rainy season on the island. The Black Shark's tooth represents the food that grows when it rains, the Geyser Spider web represents being stuck at home during the downpours, and the eggshell of the Waga-Waga bird represents what you have to walk upon when everyone has been cooped up inside for so long.

- End Credits Song: (Sung by Queeks)
  
  You thing you've got problems? Try being old, I'm old.
  The problems of youth are too numerous by half.
  But as you get older and start getting bolder,
  You decide that your problems get decidedly finer, don't laugh.
  (Hard Rock beat)
  I'm old, I'm old. But I'm not dead yet, not dead yet!
  I'm old, I'm old. But I'm not dead yet, not dead yet! I'm old!
