History ShoutOut / TinMan

* D.G. works in a diner like {{Music/Ashanti}} in ''Film/TheMuppetsWizardOfOz''. Her work outfit resembles Dorothy's dress from the 1939 film, though the white and blue gingham dress was also referenced in the book.

* In a flashback, Az congratulates DG on her plan to "trick the trees into throwing apples at them". DG mentions that she heard it in an old story once.
** In the same scene, Az tells DG that they need to be careful in the woods because of the wild animals roaming around, listing off lions and tigers as potential threats. Then a bear shows up, and they gasp "Oh my!" in shock.

* Before the final battle, DG gives each of her companions a pep talk that references the Wizard's speech and gifts from the 1939 film, in which he points out that they already have the qualities they are seeking. She assures Glitch that he is the smartest person she knows even without half his brain, points out to Raw all of the courageous things they've done together, and gets Cain to unbend enough for a hug.

* Emily shows D.G. has numerous travel brochures, one of which is to Australia, where Uncle Henry and Dorothy's relatives lived in ''Ozma of Oz'', which started with Dorthy and Uncle Henry taking a trip there.

* Glitch looks like he might have been modeled after [[Music/PinkFloyd Syd Barrett]], who wrote a song called "The Scarecrow" on ''ThePiperAtTheGatesOfDawn''.
