Trivia
- Scrooge says "Don't call me Shirley", a reference to Airplane.
- Sherlock Jones and Professor Moody Doody are parodies of Sherlock Holmes and Professor Moriarty respectably.
- Sherlock Jones notes the six hour time zone difference between London and Duckburg. This is contrary to the portrayal of Duckburg as being on the West Coast, as the time zone six hours before Duckburg would be Central Time. This is probably an error.
- The scene where Scrooge is at the auction is similar to the show storage wars, as people gain and lose money from mysterious objects.
