Trivia:

  • When Arthur says "You are.....vapid," he is standing in the hallway in the beginning. After he says it, he is seen in D.W.'s room and is leaving the room.
  • This episode is similar in terms of plot to D.W., Queen of the Comeback.
  • The story parodies the events of the film The Wizard of Oz, with Arthur cast as the Wicked Witch and the Tibble Twins appearing as lions. At the end of the story, D.W. states "I had this dream, and you were in it, and you, and you were in it too!," similar to the ending of The Wizard of Oz.
  • In this episode we see D.W. has a Mary Moo Cow cup.
  • The magic word that melted Arthur is never said aloud, likely since it might be inappropriate for children, the show's target audience.
  • This is the first episode to feature the Hide-N-Seek Circle title card.
