  • Steve is reported to be in the 9th grade.
  • Snot wants to go to Philadelphia to go to the mint to see what money looks like.
    • He also thinks the city is named after the cream cheese.
  • The blue-haired girl from "Independent Movie" can be seen on the bus.
  • Ali wears a fox jacket because it reminds her of her grandmother.
  • Even though they have no idea who 'milk girl' really is, Stan and Francine have adjusted their will to include her.
    • They also got her a custom-made jacket for Christmas and drained their swimming pool and filled it with milk for her.
    • Hayley orders a truckful of cereal while high, which thanks to a giant spoon Francine has, solves their second problem.
    • Francine notes that Stan picked her up on the side of the road, an event that occurred in "Francine's Flashback".
  • Numerous landmarks are represented, including Philadelphia City Hall and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
    • Roger is the Rocky statue.
    • Originally created in 1980 as a prop for Rocky III and placed that the Philadelphia Museum of Art, Sylvester Stallone presented the monument to the City of Philadelphia. City officials, who contended that the Rocky statue was not art, relocated the sculpture near the entrance of the Philadelphia Spectrum, where Rocky battled Apollo Creed in the original Rocky. It was moved several times, including to its original location briefly, and currently resides at the bottom of the museum stairs following a restoration in 2006. Here, Roger's statue is shown sitting at the top of the stairs.[1]
  • The cheesesteak restaurant is modeled after Pat's King of Steaks, which claims to have invented the Philadelphia cheesesteak.
  • Anne-Marie asks Snot "Wit or Witout", which is Philadelphia dialect for onions and peppers on the cheesesteak.
    • Contrary to most places outside of Philadelphia, a true cheesesteak is made with Cheese Whiz, not provolone. The accurate way to order a fully loaded cheesesteak is "Whiz Wit".[2]
  • Reese Witherspoon's film project is Election II: Omaha Drift; nods to her 1999 film Election and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.
    • Despite drinking gallons of it in class, Reese notes that she hates milk but is a good actress. She also notes that she does her own stunts when she leaps off the building with a parachute.
  • Notably high, Hayley and Jeff were unable to remember how they met, but Hayley believes it may have been a Braves game. Jeff is also unaware of who is actually interviewing them.
    • The text of the interview with Hayley and Jeff lists his surname as "Smith", which continues the continuity of "Portrait of Francine's Genitals" where Jeff says he took Hayley's surname when they married.
  • Snot is unfamiliar with grapes. He also needs to take a second look at the eggs.
  • Ali says she saw Gwyneth Paltrow sunbathing naked on top of a moving car.
  • Accusing Steve of being dramatic, Ali compares him to Dame Judi Dench.
  • Ali notes that her dad's favorite strip club is on the napkin containing the list of places to search for Marty.
  • "Crimson and Clover", originally by Tommy James and the Shondells and covered here by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, can be heard when Anne-Marie beats up Lou, as well as at other points in the episode.
  • A poster for Dr. Buttblast hot sauce from "Enter Stanman" can be seen in the spicy restaurant.
  • Tuttle's 'significant other' is a raisin that he found on the floor of the Astor Hotel in Chicago.
  • After hitting him with the police car, Anne-Marie reports that Steve looks more "jacked-up" than the Philly Phanatic tattoo that her cousin Donovan gave her underneath the bleachers at the Mummers Parade.
  • When they first met, Ali thought Steve was a dork, and insists they're just friends.
  • Steve hopes they can continue their relationship when they're both upperclassmen in high school.
