* AwardShow: It won the [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7497126/3/Best_Phineas_and_Ferb_FanFictions_Awards Best Phineas and Ferb FanFictions Awards]] for Best After-Phineas-and-Ferb-Across-the-Second-Dimension Fanfic.
* DarkerAndEdgier: This whole fanfic is a more violent version of the movie it's based on, proving the 2nd Dimension is nothing like the everyday lives of the people in the 1st Dimension.
* InspirationNod: Phineas' character development was originally inspired by Film/SpiderMan1. [[note]]Co-Author Stinkfly3 admits she came up with the idea since she's a HUGE fan of the web-slinger.[[/note]]
* NeverTrustATrailer: The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nED8iLQwcTE fanmade YouTube trailer]] implied that Phineas would kill 1D Phineas and steal his life. [[spoiler:That doesn't happen in the fanfic. He travels to the 1st Dimension to ask 1D Phineas for advice.]]
