Trivia[]
- Moral: Check your facts before you go with them.
- Thingy is a parody of Barney The Dinosaur. Kyla Pratt, who voices Penny, played Marcella in Barney's Great Adventure.
- Barney is referenced even further with the baby riot, especially with Oscar posing as Thingy, which is most likely a reference to a 1993 incident at a shopping mall where Barney was billed, but the children became enraged and destructive when a skinny imposter appeared on stage.
- The title is a reference to the 1968 Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell song "Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing".
