* Hearing that pirates are superstitious, Bunsen thinks up a way to get Silver's pirate crew to leave. Sam rises out into the ship's platform in white flour, with a deadpan performance as a 'ghost': "Boogie, boogie, boogie. I am the ghost of Samuel Arrow." *beat* "Boogie!" Followed by the entire pirate crew throwing themselves off the ship in panic.

Sam rises out into the ship's platform in white flour, flour and some seaweed, with a deadpan performance as a 'ghost': "Boogie, boogie, boogie. I am the ghost of Samuel Arrow." *beat* "Boogie!" Followed by the entire pirate crew throwing themselves off the ship in panic.



* A massive MoodWhiplash occurs after Kermit and Miss Piggy have sung "[[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments Love Led Us Here]]". Miss Piggy's rope suddenly burns through and she is about to fall to her death coupled with hysterical screaming. Kermit manages to catch her, and he has WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises and a very expressive mouth as he struggles to support her weight.

* After the roll is called and Smollett (and the audience) get a good look at the rather unsavory crew, he very calmly and politely asks to see the main characters in his cabin. Cut to him screaming "''WHO HIRED THIS CREW?'' THIS IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE ''SEEDIEST'' BUNCH OF CUTTHROATS, VILLAINS AND SCOUNDRELS I HAVE EVER SEEN ''SO WHO HIRED 'EM?!?!?'' *huff* *huff*" Everyone points to the Squire, who points at his own finger.

* During the beginning of the scene with the pirates and a captive Jim on the island, the camera focuses for a few seconds on Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem, who are playing the background music. Zoot asks whose side they're actually on -- "Are we with the pirates or the frog captain?" -- and Floyd tells him to just go with the flow -- "Never get involved in politics!"

* The Constellation game can be played at least twice, with each constellation appearing as a different Muppet in a different activity:
-->Lyra: Zoot holding a lyre.\\
Ursa Major and the Big Dipper/Ursa Minor and Polaris: Fozzie flying with one of the Swedish Chef's Utensils. Silver talks about wanting to have the Big Dipper as a utensil of his own. Smollet however gives sage advice regarding Polaris being the North Star, in a bit taken from the film.\\
Orion: Sweetums combing his fur and looking in a mirror.\\
Pegasus: Clueless Morgan with wings. Silver lampshades this saying that the constellation looks more like a goat than a horse.\\
Hercules: Mad Monty fighting a snake.\\
Perseus (Silver version): Tim Curry in Creator/HarryHamlin's armor from Film/ClashOfTheTitans1981, with Kermit's head at his waist. Silver jokes about Perseus being nothing more than a seacook rather than a hero.\\
Libra: Bunsen and Beaker in the scales\\
Aquila: Bare naked Sam the Eagle. Serves as a MythologyGag to Sam's editorial on animal nudity from the original show.\\
Gemini: Gonzo and Rizzo. Smollet accientally calls them the "Geek Brothers" and mentions that they thought they were looking for Golden Geese rather than the Golden Fleece. Their quest [[IncredilyLamePun laid an egg]].\\
Cassiopia: Miss Piggy posing on a couch. Smollet mentions her being a drama queen.\\
Perseus (Smollet version): Kermit in Greek armor and winged sandals, in the same pose as Silver's version, only with Tim Curry's head at his waist. Smollet mentions that "legend has it he was a frog."

* Speaking of the fanfare from the CD-ROM, whenever the fanfare plays at the cue of "Map to Treasure Island", it's always done in different ways for laughs. The only exceptions are when Flint taunts Hawkins after finding the map at the Benbow Inn with a heroic fanfare in a minor key and when the Squire looks at it with awe. Among the instances of the fanfare played for laughs:
** Stevenson tries to whisper it, only for the fanfare to play at full volume.
** Jeeves after the Squire leaves:
-->'''Jeeves:''' Squire Trelawney is no longer home. He said something about "[[IgpayAtinLay Apmay utay Easuretray Islandyay]]"//
