Characters
Math Magic
72 ÷ 8 = 9
72 ÷ 9 = 8
9(8) - 1(8) = 8(8)
8 × 1 = 8
8 ÷ 1 = 8
8(9) + 8(1) = 8(10)
8(10) = 80
Trivia
On the CBeebies schedule and BBC iPlayer, the "Two" in this episode's title and synopsis is not capitalized.
Octonaughty returns in this episode. His last physical appearance was in Octoblock and the Path of Justice .
This is the second eight times table prologue episode, the first being We Need Another Hero .
Seventy-Two may be a superhero just like Eight, as she also has a superhero mask.
This is one of the many times where the beach is the setting.
Despite being released after Super Eights Assemble , it's possible that this episode chronologically takes place before the former and after We Need Another Hero .
Octonaughty uses the same remote from the Crossover special.
When Octonaughty mentioned that the ring is made of pure octonite, and that Octoblock's powers are useless, they made a reference to Octoblock to the Rescue! where The Terrible Twos said the same thing.
Eight saying "Yikes!" Is reused once again from Terrible Twosday .
Eighty's "Dinoctoblock, smash!" line is reused from Sixty's High Score .
Errors
Regular
The Eight Eights have normal limbs instead of Octoblock limbs.
Subtitles
When the Nines get hit by the giant ball, the subtitles say "72 GROANS" although they haven’t joined up yet.
