* NotaryNonsense: Scruffy reveals himself to be a notary. While there is nothing that says a janitor could not also be a notary, he is revealed to have died and been brought back as a zombie in "[[Recap/FuturamaS6E16LawAndOracle Law and Oracle]]", implicitly putting his personhood, much less his qualification to be a notary, in serious doubt.

** The CouchGag for this episode is a take on the [[https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/futurama-fry-not-sure-if "Not sure if X, or just Y" meme]] that permeated from a screencap of Fry squinting in Season 2's ''[[Recap/FuturamaS2E6TheLesserOfTwoEvils The Lesser of Two Evils]]''.
** Fry saying "Shut up and give me a Slurm Loco!" to Bev is a reference to the "Shut up and take my money!" meme that spawned from last season's ''[[Recap/FuturamaS6E3AttackOfTheKillerApp Attack of the Killer App]]''.

The main conflict with Ben was resolved; it wasn't dropped midway through the episode.

* SexMiseducationClass: Downplayed. The episode features a robot sex-ed tape that is fairly comprehensive (since the audience needs exposition on how robot reproduction works), but shames teenage robots for being "hideous" and hormonal and ends on the note that masturbation is unnatural and wrong.

* RecursiveCreators: Why robots have sexes as well as robots without owners or obvious purposes are finally explained this way: robots can breed--and it's in essentially the same way that humans breed: the male robot transmits a portion of his code to the female robot, who makes up the missing portion and then the baby robot eventually comes out of her cabinet.
