The Abdicator Rescues Eugene and Little Kid Hey Arnold ! The Splat

Trivia

  • The Abdicator appears to be based on the actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The on-screen one-liners appears to be similar to ones given in Total Recall and The Terminator. Schwarzenegger also saves a child from falling in Kindergarten Cop (along with that Eugene's voice actor at the time Ben Diskin, had a minor role in the movie).
  • The Little Kid who looks up to Eugene says that he has to be in bed by 8:30, right after viewing his favorite show "Yo Earnest", which is a reference to Hey Arnold!.
  • When Eugene pulls the fire alarm, Principal Wartz silences the alarm by pushing the lever on the fire alarm pull station back up. In real life, you need to insert a special key into the pull station to reset the lever, then silence and reset the fire alarm system via the main control panel (often located in a school's office or an electrical closet.)
  • The opening of the track Eugene Paints It Black sounds similar to the opening to Black Sabbath's song Iron Man" and the title of the song is a reference to The Rolling Stones song "Paint it Black". The track itself later plays in Big Gino.
