* Servo opens a kissing booth and has plans to franchise. Mike pays $49.95 for a "dry perfunctory grandma kiss".

* Pearl has phones installed on the SOL as part of her plan to take over the world through efficient videoconferencing. All it does is make everybody on every line confused and hard-to-hear.

* Mike imitates the teenagers from the short, silently pointing and laughing at everything as cheery music plays. The 'Bots make him knock it off with a wrecking ball to knock him out.

* The crew builds a model rocket which blows up in Mike's face. Pearl also builds one, but with a real rocket and an entire space program to train Bobo into piloting it.

* Despite their protests, Mike and Servo are made to see Crow's sketches of new fashions for Jackie Coogan.

* The Blob From Heaven arrives on the SOL to make the crew give up their nuclear bombs; Servo confesses to keeping one in his room. Pearl's rocket blasts off into space, but Bobo had gone to get a chocolate bar and forgot to get back inside. With no pilot, the rocket flies right back down into Castle Forrester.

** Plus there's the fact that after Pearl's attempt at videoconferencing, all Mike and the bots' riffing has a distinct echo to it.

* ShoutOut: The SOL crew recites the Three Stooges phone answer gag.

* CanadaEh: Mike and the 'bots conjecture that the blob overlooks Canada in its attempt at forced disarmament, leaving the world quaking under a Canadian hegemony.
