* BerserkButton: Mikey is ''not'' happy when he finds out that The Rat King gave himself a nickname, since Mikey is the self-proclaimed [[TheNicknamer nicknamer]]. He spends the rest of the episode ranting about what a "dumb" name "The Rat King" is and how he could come up with something better, only to begrudgingly allow him to keep it while insisting he names the next bad guy.
-->'''Donnie:''' Let it ''go'' already!

* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: Little was known about the Rat King, and the marketing seemed to make a conscious effort to avoid showing his actor. At least one website, however, managed to get an exclusive clip of the episode, which revealed that he was voiced by JeffreyCombs, and has a vendetta against the Turtles, pretty much spoiling the identity of the character, Dr. Victor Falco.
