** When Bonnie's [[Music/RebaMcEntire friend Charlotte]] comes to help with her wedding, she mentions that she's her Thelma to her Louise. In [[Series/Reba]], this is what Bonnie's actor said loudly as Barbra Jean to Reba when the latter sneaked out from the house to ride on her stepson's really good car.
** When it's revealed that Charlotte is plotting to ruin Bonnie's wedding, Charlotte says that it's revenge for Bonnie stealing her fiance. This is a mirror of how Barbra Jean stole Reba's husband Brock at the start of [[Series/Reba]] except Reba just snarked endlessly about it instead of fighting back.

** Played with in another episode. Ben and Danny are running for building supervisor to overthrow their irritating supervisor, Sondra. The deciding vote comes down to an elderly lady named Mrs. Curtis. After Danny weaves a path of destruction through her tea-set and and fragile figurine-filled apartment, she promises to still vote for them as long as he stops moving around. He grabs the woman in a big "Thank you" hug... and apparently hugs her so hard she drops dead right there!
