Trivia[]
- This episode title is a play on Looney Tunes.
- The scene of Bonkers singing "Old Macdonald Had A Farm" with his showerhead was used in the opening.
- In the scene where Bonkers brings Quark to Lucky's house for breakfast, Bonkers refers to Dyl Piquel as "Mrs. P", a common nickname for Pete's wife Peg Pete in Goof Troop. Both characters were voiced by April Winchell (and their respective husbands, by Jim Cummings).
- In the same scene, the way Marilyn asks her mother to let Bonkers and Quark join them for breakfast is delivered in a similar fashion to the energetic way Pistol Pete, Peg's daughter, speaks.
- The final line "Lucky, this looks like the start of a beautiful friendship" is taken from the 1942 film Casablanca.
- The mentioned missing films are A Terminator Christmas and Sleeping Beauty.
- Various references to Cinderella are made in the climax as Crab Nebula was supposed to be the Fairy Godmother.
