* CuttingTheKnot: As the pizza chef is chasing after the flying pizza in the streets, swinging a knife, the sight attracts the attention of a cop car. Tom takes a reasonable guess as to what was called in:
-->'''Tom''': (as the lights flash on; as the cop) Unit 72, we got a- ''[[{{Understatement}} there's just a lot goin' on]]''.

** Kinga's cutting of the SOL's oxygen echoes Dr. Forrester's similar means of punishing Mike in ''[[Film/MysteryScienceTheater3000TheMovie The Movie]]''. Jonah also tries (and fails) to call her bluff by pointing out how she has threatened it in past episodes but never followed through.

* IsThisThingStillOn: Apparently, Dom [=DeLuise=] rehearsed for the role of Munchie by putting on a lapel microphone and just saying whatever came to mind. As Jonah plays the tape of his rehearsals, Dom's act gets increasingly unhinged and troubled. Later, Dom forgets he's still wearing the mic and runs somebody over in his car, and he mentions that it's not the first time as he runs away from the scene of the crime.

* DerailedTrainOfThought: When Kinga shuts off the oxygen, Crow and Servo bravely tell her that they're not going to take it from her, but then go off on a tangent about dogs as Jonah suffocates. By the time Kinga relents and Movie Sign blares, the 'Bots are confident enough to go back into the theater while Jonah is confused and woozy.

* To help desensitize him to the pain of watching the movie, Jonah puts on Dom [=DeLuise=]'s voice auditions for Munchie, and they get pretty dark. Kinga is bragging about her success streak to Pearl and the Synthias, but Pearl would rather spend time reconnecting with her granddaughter instead.
