* ShoutOut: One of Phineas and Ferb's ideas they discussed in the morning is a "jelly bean monetary system for emerging nations". This is a likely reference to either ''VideoGame/ToontownOnline'', which used jelly beans as an in-game currency, or [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beenz.com beenz.com]], a service running from 1998-2001 that allowed internet users to gain an e-currency known as "beenz" that they could spent with participating online merchants.

* ContinuityNod: BrickJoke: Baljeet observes to Jeremy that the Slushy Dawg recipe hasn't changed since they opened in 1929. As Jeremy notes, that's their slogan, "Slushy Dawgs never get any better." Later in the episode, Buford offers his friends a Slushy Dawg, but they refuse.
-->'''Baljeet''': Ew!\\
'''Phineas''': Nah.\\
'''Ferb''': Oh, heavens, no. Slushy Dawgs never get any better.
* ContinuityNod:
** The "Slushy the Clown" jingle from "[[Recap/PhineasAndFerbDoesThisDuckbillMakeMeLookFat Does This Duckbill Make Me Look Fat?]]" plays whenever anyone mentions Slushy Dawg.

Played to its logical conclusion at the end: Buford saves Baljeet from being crushed by a giant wiener, at which point Buford declares that they're even and returns to bullying Baljeet as usual.
