- Continuity Nod: Trina's Nike Air Prestige III's from Locked Up!, The Diddly-Bops and Jade Dumps Beck return in this episode.
- Farce: Helen's assistant mixes up Tori and Trina's names, causing Helen to believe they're the opposite.
- Hidden Depths: Trina turns out to be a martial arts expert.
- Mistaken Identity: At first it is believed Tori is getting kicked out of Hollywood Arts; but it turns out Helen's assistant mixed up Tori and Trina's names, and Trina is the one getting kicked out.
- Red Herring: At first Tori believes she's getting kicked out, but upon solving the Farce above, it's really Trina who's getting kicked out.
- Product Placement: Trina is wearing Nike Air Prestige III's at the end of the episode.
- Pun-Based Title: To "Hell and Back Again".
