- Speaking of, this is the first time the Terrible Twos don't do something mischievous. The second would be Mirror, Mirror.
- Two and Ten stay vertical in this episode.
- This is the fourth time Nine doesn't sneeze.
- The only time Nine is a square is when he says "More than."
- The argument:
- Three: Where's the Peekaboo? You're supposed to be 2 + 1, which is the same as 3, then you jump out and say Peekaboo!
- One: You can't make me do it myself, I'm just One! I can't be Two and One! [inaudible mumbling]; and I'm only one One!
- Two: (nervous noises)
- Five could’ve turned herself into 2L+3 and slide sideways and going through Four’s door.
- When Three and Four fail to hide Five, the same buzzer sound each time I tells a lie from Mine was used.
- At the last scene, the smaller dancing partners can be seen saying "Cause I'm greater than you no one will find you!", even though they're smaller than their partners.
