- This is also the third-season finale episode in a row to be six minutes long while paired up with a 16-minute episode. The first was "Don't Wake Patrick" and the second was "The String."
  - This is the seventh episode to be six minutes long due to the fact that its sister was 16 minutes long. The first four to do so that were not part of season 12 were "Gary Takes a Bath," "The Bad Guy Club for Villains," "Don't Wake Patrick," and "The String."

- This is the second pair of episodes to be tied into each other. The first was "Swamp Mates" and "One Trick Sponge."

SpongeBoy can be seen on the TV for a split second

The episode's plot is similar to "Sleepy Time," as both involve SpongeBob exploring other people's dreams, however, it is different.
Among many flashing images on the TV in SpongeBob's dream, an image of SpongeBoy is visible for a split-second.

SpongeBob and Patrick being chased by Octopi and his friends

Octopi from Template:Data:Links's Bold and Brash painting and the Squidward sculpture from "Are You Happy Now?" are seen alive in his dream.
