Trivia[]
- This is one of few season 2 episodes to have a Little Miss Daredevil-centric sketch where she uses Mr. Quiet as an assistant. Most episodes this season have her teaming up with Mr. Nervous instead.
- The official upload of this episode erroneously uses a frame from "Picnics" as its thumbnail.
- Scenes from this episode were leaked a month prior to the second season's premiere on Dagan Moriarty's animation reel on YouTube.
- In the third sketch, Mr. Quiet ends up wearing the pineapples on his head in a fashion similar to the fruit hat, as popularized by Carmen Miranda.
