| Meg: "You're a smart fella dad"
Peter: "And you're a fart smella' Meg"
| {Song over end credits}
Frank: On the western side of Quahog, if you care to come along.
There's a club that's so exclusive, that the line is 10 miles long.
Brian: Where the douche-bags come to party, and to spend their father's cash.
Just to take home slutty women, and to wake up with a rash.
Yeah they wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up with a rash.
Frank & Brian: Take me out to pLace tonight, where the wool knit caps are tight, and the guys in hooded sweatshirts have forgotten that their white.
Take me out to pLace tonight, where there ain't no cellulite, and we'll drink ourselves insane until we're feeling, dynamite!

| Barack Obama
Peter references Barack Obama's Presidential Campaign when he gives the homeless man 'Hope' when he asks for change.

| Peter attempts to destroy an Anheuser Busch Beer billboard.
| Stewie: "You're going to fail faster than John Madden's wedding video business"

| Frank Sinatra Jr.: "Get a load of Maynard G. Krebs over here."
Maynard G. Krebs was a character played by Bob Denver from the 1959-1963 TV show 'The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis'
| Stewie: "I got a job as a field reporter for channel 5 news"
Stewie's 'grape stomping' news report and fall from the stage is based off a real incident with a field reporter from Atlanta. Oddly enough it was also Channel 5 and a FOX affiliate.
Tom Tucker and Dianne Simmons replicate the nonchalant attitude of the studio hosts' reactions to the reporters injuries.
| Peter: "Late 70's Bruce Jenner, take me home"
Bruce Jenner won the decathlon in the 1976 Summer Olympics.
| Frank Sinatra Jr. tries to impress women by name dropping Peter Lawford, who was in the original 1960 'Ocean's Eleven'.
He also mentions Lou Costello, half of the famous comedy duo of the 40's and 50's Abbot & Costello
| The musical icon Prince makes an appearance on The Price is Right when it was still hosted by Bob Barker
| Peter: "Lois... I just had the weirdest dream that Lewis Black told jokes that were so funny he had to shout them so everyone could hear"
Lewis Black does in fact scream his jokes in his comedy acts.
| Yosemite Sam, the famous Warner Brothers character is seen trying on jeans at Barney's, a famous clothing store in New York City
| Andy Dick, best known for his stints on TVs 'NewsRadio' & 'Less Than Perfect' is famous (or infamous) for getting drunk and thrown out of parties.
| Tom Tucker: "Our next spelling bee contestant is Omar Ma-ha-ja-ree-fa-something-September-11th-ee"
- "Omar North Tower"
- "Oh I'm sorry Omar, I bet you can spell box cutter"
(Obvious) references to 9/11
| Peter: "Can you use it in a libelous sentence?"
Tom Tucker: "Gillian Anderson & Helen Hunt are lesbians"
Stating Gillian Anderson and Helen Hunt are lesbians would obviously be libelous since they are not in fact lesbians.
| Sinatra's Tatoo
Wearing his new Barney's threads, Frank Sinatra, Jr. is also sporting a tattoo on his right arm. The tattoo is the Japanese character 羊, hitsuji, which means sheep in English. Since he and Brian have now accepted the new club, the implication is that they are sheeple, or people that blindly go along with the flow without questioning it, and in the process lose their individuality.
| The song over the end credits was an altered version of the original song “On The Road to Mandalay” sung by Frank Sinatra, Music by Billy May
