** All characters in the franchise allude to a character from a fairytale, myth, history, or pop culture. Pyrrha Nikos's allusion is [[Literature/TheIliad Achilles]], and she goes through a HeroicBSOD (referencing AchillesInHisTent), [[spoiler:a PyrrhicVictory, and getting killed by an arrow to the AchillesHeel before being immolated into ashes (as Achilles was cremated after his death)]]. Additionally, Pyrrha's name is both a reference to "pyrrhic victory" (which is actually ''[[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers not]]'' a reference to Achilles, but rather King Pyrrhus of Epirus) and one of the possible names that Achilles took on when he crossdressed. It's possible she was also named for Pyrrha of Thessaly from the tale of Deucalion and Pyrrha, who was the daughter of Pandora — Pyrrha Nikos had a large role in the events that involved the show's "Pandora's Box" described below.

An evil spirit appears to Patrick and attempts to torment him by being a donut around his forehead, and if Patrick tries to reach up for it, his forehead will extend so that he can never reach the donut — a reference to Tantalus. But this being Patrick, he annoyingly doesn't feel like eating and can't make up his mind on whether he wants the object to be a donut or something else, which instead torments the ''spirit''.
