Characters

Production Notes

Errors

  • In the first scene, after Steven opens the front door, the door is suddenly closed in cuts to close-up shots, then it reopens itself in overhead shots.

Continuity

  • Onion is shown riding and wrecking the same scooter he won in "Arcade Mania."

Cultural References

  • The ketchup packets Onion threw had "Hynez" written on them. This is a reference to the popular condiment manufacturer, Heinz, and the last name of character designer, Danny Hynez.
  • It's possible that the GUYS (Guys Under Your Supervision) toy line of rubber figures is a parody of MUSCLE (Millions of Unusual Small Creatures Lurking Everywhere), a similar toy line based on the Kinnikuman manga.
  • Steven's advice for surviving Onion's Dave Guy pool is "try to act like a rich duck", referring to Scrooge McDuck and his tendency to swim through the money in his massive vault, like in theme to the show "DuckTales".
  • When Steven is telling Amethyst about "G.U.Y.S", it is referencing the Megaman stage select.

Trivia

  • It is revealed that Onion does in fact speak, however, he doesn't speak English.
  • This is the first time Onion's Dad appears in the series.
  • This is the last episode to air on a Monday before [adult swim] moved its start time up to 8:00 PM.
  • This is Onion's first major role.
