** In episode 3 of HFIL, it was established that with all the ki-blockers in place, even everyone in HIFL working together couldn't lift Guru unless it was with a forklift. When trying to raise Guru in this episode, Raditz complains that he needs that forklift.
** Once again, the RecycledInSpace gag of putting "Space" in front of normal things, last seen in the Namek Saga (such as Space Duck, Spacebook, and Space Mexico) comes back, this time as a "Space Cow" (mentioned by both Freeza and Raditz). Cell refuses to believe either of them.

* ChekovsGun: At the start of the episode, Jeice is complaining at the sharing circle that the Captain looks so sad and miserable now that he's on a leash. It later turns out that all of the pranking this episode was as a direct result of Cell threatening to complain about Ginyu constantly attacking him.

** Guldo's TimeStandsStill powers were previously seen in the Namek Saga, and in episode 3 of HFIL (to get the ball).

* FreezeFrameBonus: The picture of a butt on Ginyu's Ransom Note is green, and has the pink oval bits seen on Namekian muscles.



* MundaneUtility: Guldo's power to stop time is used... to pull pranks on Cell.



* OutsideContextProblem: Ki is indeed blocked with everyone in HFIL (save the Ogres), but Guldo's TimeStandsStill powers are apparently something not related to that. Raditz speculates that it's psychic in nature, while Guru guesses it's magic.



* TemptingFate: Once Cell finds out the Ginyus were pranking him, Burter suggests they tone down the pranks before it escalates any further... only for it to turn out that Cell already kidnapped their "mascot" (Ginyu).

* TimeStandsStill: Guldo's signature powerset. It's revealed that he's the one who's been doing all the pranks thanks to his ability to stop time, and that the ki blockers don't stop him from doing it. In addition, it's the primary reason he's on the Ginyu Force to begin with.
