Credits
  • At the end of the credits, a Special Thanks was dedicated to the voice actors of each member of the Pataki family: Mo, Kath, Nika and Franny.
  • During the scene where Big Bob wakes up in the hospital, if one listens closely, he passes gas once.
    • Helga reveals his attack in the restaurant was just built-up gas.
  • When Big Bob becomes a hippie, he’s wearing primitive clothing that exposes half his chest.
    • He went fully shirtless in "Summer Love" when he, Miriam and Helga went to the beach.
    • When Helga convinces him to go back to his normal self, he goes back to wearing his regular clothes. It’s likely that if the episode had been longer instead of being paired with its sister episode, "A Day in the Life of a Classroom" and had Helga not convinced him to go back to what he was before suffering a gas attack that he would have continued wearing the primitive clothing. It’s also likely that he would have become a nudist if he decided to forgo it. Similar to what Tommy Pickles did in the Rugrats Season 3 episode 15, "Naked Tommy".
  • Actual sound effects from Wheel of Fortune are heard when Helga tries to bring the rest of her family back with television.
  • Helga borrows a TV from Mr. Martinez. Caesar Martinez is the storyboard artist for the episode.
  • Helga tells Miriam that she should talk to Bob, being his wife, to which Miriam replies "well, technically yes". This is another hint about Bob and Miriam’s rocky marriage.
    • In "Olga Gets Engaged", upon hearing Olga will be dropping out of school to get married, Miriam responds "don't make the same mistake I did" to which Bob looks at her with a look of surprise.
  • Big Bob's early mistreatment in this episode is very similar to Ebenezer Scrooge from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
