* BenevolentGenie: The episode might be seen as a critique of the then newly-developed game patch devices.[[note]]Specifically, Game Genie.[[/note]] The N Team comes across a lamp containing a calm albeit [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] genie and uses his magic to make wishes.

Princess Lana immediately wishes that "no one had made any wishes", returning things to normal for the moment so they can get on with the plot.
