** Nancy's address in River Heights is shown to be on "Stratemeyer Lane". The Stratemeyer Syndicate, and its leader Edward Stratemeyer, created the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys franchises, among others.
** Nancy is stated to have been "almost childhood paramours" with both Frank and Joe Hardy, and there are hints that Frank may still be attracted to her in the present day. Nancy and Frank have a long history of ShipTease throughout many different iterations of their crossover series, and while it's less so with Joe, there have been a couple of books where he shows attraction to her, too.
** Similarly, Joe and Bess, who are clearly massively into each other here and are either already dating or well on the way to it, have shown interest in each other in multiple different crossover series through the years.
** At the Palace of Wisdom, Frank is able to obtain the drugs they need (in order to prove their prime suspect is dirty) from a girl with short, dark hair named "Deirdre". This is likely a reference to Deirdre Shannon, a rival-of-sorts to Nancy from her ''Girl Detective'' book series, who is described there as having short dark hair. Deirdre also ends up making out with Frank; in the Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys crossover book that she appears in, she likewise shows attraction to him.
