  • This episode is heavily referencing the classic 1940s Frank Capra movie "It's A Wonderful Life", and it is the second episode to do so. The first one is "Thanks a Lot, Binky." However, the references to the film is a bit more obvious in this episode.
  • The song that Binky was playing for George was a Clasical piece called Alla Turca known as the Turkish March by Mozart.
