| Kahuna was played by Cliff Robertson in the 1959 film Gidget.
|
| |
| Mr. Lawrence: Every drifter learns eventually that being rootless simply means you're from nowhere and you're going nowhere.
| Gidget: How can you win? You thump your way up to the top of the biggest mountain and, ipso cripso, there's a bigger one laughing right in your face. But still, I think I agree with Plato. Life is a gas.

| When Kahuna arrives at the Lawrence house for dinner, his shadow can be seen on the backdrop outside the front door.

| Gidget: But still, I think I agree with Plato. Life is a gas.
Plato (428/427 BC – 348/347 BC), was an ancient Greek philosopher who, with Socrates and Aristotle, laid the philosophical foundations of Western culture. Plato was also a mathematician, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the western world.

| This episode references Kahuna, a major character in both the novel and the 1959 film. In the film, Kahuna lived in a shack on the beach and spent his days surfing -- just as he does in this episode. In the novel, the name is spelled Kahoona.
