Notes/trivia[]
- TBA
Cultural references[]
- The Alcatraz prisoner, Clint Morris, is a parody of Chuck Norris, an actor usually portrayed as a tough guy and sometimes a gangster.
- He could also be based off on Frank Morris, one of three Alcatraz prisoners who'd attempted to escape the prison in 1962. The prisoners escaped through a utility corridor and tried to get to the shore via makeshift raft, and were presumed to have drowned.
- The "Red Persons Troupe" recalls the Blue Man Group, a performance collective where the members are painted blue.
Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches[]
- None known.
Inconsistencies/continuities and/or goofs/oddities[]
- The fate of the first victim, Rich Gurman, is left up in the air (pun intended).
- In this episode, Shaggy is uncoordinated as a skateboarder, but in Roller Ghoster Ride, he is very good at skateboarding.
- Julien said he was knocked out, but he was nowhere to be seen in his boat.
- It’s unknown where Julian went after Fred lost him on the tram.
- Surely the other judges would have seen Rutie change into the San Franpsycho disguise.
- Clint is shown to have a short sleeved shirt. However, the San Franpsycho had long sleeves.
- Rutie should have known girls can compete as she attacked a female skater.
