Trivia

 * This is one of the few episodes that feature references to Star Wars.
 * When Buster said "Oh, the humanity!," that is referencing something the reporter Herbet Morrison said when he witnessed the Hindenburg Blimp crashed.
 * The name of the famous marbles player "Lefty" Raposo may be referencing the writer Nick Raposo from the show.
 * The Stinkachu card pokes fun at the original Pikachu from Pokemon.

Comments

 * After #60902 - "Crushed" wasn't literally about being crushed by something, I figured that this wouldn't be a literal title either. But then it was.
 * It's a very boring episodes if you are not interested in marbles.
