** The plot of the episode revolves around a group of neo-Nazis trying to clone Adolf Hitler. Rusty refuses to assist them on account of how cliche the concept is. Events transpire to have Hitler's soul and genetic information transplanted into a bulldog. But this isn't revealed until late into the episode, which is framed in AnachronicOrder, leading to some proper gems.

*** It gets even funnier in contest: S.P.H.I.N.X. used to be a supervillain group that the OSI wiped out in in the 80's. Apparently the current S.P.H.I.N.X., having left the OSI due to their disgust with the OSI's bureaucracy, decided to take up the banner as a vigilante group. Unfortunately no one has had the presence of mind since then to replace the ''massive talking Sphinx statue'' that serves as the base's alarm system with something a little more mundane and have just been dealing with it for all these years.

** Zero points out that the name "Meteor Majeure" is a bit inaccurate because the term "meteor" refers to an object that falls in Earth's atmosphere, something that Prof. Impossible agrees with due to its scientific accuracy. They also point out that it is too big to be considered a "meteoroid" and debate few other more accurate names like "asteroid" and "satellite", only for Phantom Limb to say they keep the original name due to its [[AlliterativeName alliteration]].

** A bit of dark humor: When Dr. Venture tries to clear out a compound (which earlier in the show was made into a nest for different animals), Billy lures out a gorilla as bait, which Hatred then shoots dead. He then turns around to find the Gorilla's offspring looking for their mother. [[CrossesTheLineTwice He shoots them as well, in tears.]] The next scene when he sets up the tents he's still crying about it. All this [[SoundtrackDissonance scored to that same peppy "Zoom, zoom, zoom!" song]] that also accompanied Hank and Dean's DeathMontage.
