Episode Notes

Opening theme promotion: TOUCH EYEBALLS TO SCREEN FOR CHEAP LASER SURGERY

Opening theme cartoon: "Neptune Nonsense" by the Van Beuren Studios (1936)

Alien code: During the M*A*S*H remake, you see Alien Code #1 written on top of one of the tents. It spells out M*E*A*T.

LOOK HARD: Several Posters and signs:

CASHIER HAS ONLY $10 IN CHECKING ACCOUNT

JOIN THE ARMY / WHAT ARE YOU, CHICKEN? / BUK BUK BUK

EARTH MEN ARE REAL MEN

BUY BONDS! / SELL STOCKS

WE DON'T KNOW BUT WE'VE BEEN TOLD OUR BEER ON TAP IS MIGHTY COLD

WAR OVER! / Balls Thoroughly Licked

LOOK HARD: Bender's TOP MOST FREQUENTLY TEN UTTERED WORDS:

10. "CHUMP"
9. "CHUMPETTE"
8. "YOURS"
7. "UP"
6. "PIMPMOBILE"
5. "BITE"
4. "MY"
3. "SHINY"
2. "DAFFODIL"
1. "ASS"

Bender's least favorite word is "antiquing."

Cultural References

The set up of the medical camp and the characters such as I-hawk and the non diogetic music played during the scene when we first see the camp is an allusion to the 1970 movie and the 1972 TV series MASH.
