Trivia

General

• When Shmandrake resets everything back to normal, and Patrick ends up finding a genie's lamp during his gardening show, Squidina exclaims that she wishes "this cartoon was over already," breaking the fourth wall.

Episode references

• Cecil hits Patrick with a flyswatter and says "Foinsapp!". This is a reference to "Klopnodian Heritage Festival," where "foinsapp" is the tradition of swatting flies.
• Patrick's Pat's Jelly Rock Shack outfit from "The Patrick Show Sells Out" returns while trying to bribe Shmandrake on TV. He also appears in his chef outfit from "Pearl Wants to Be a Star."
• Patrick's poorly drawn thought bubble self is similar to how he imagines Bunny in "Just in Time for Christmas."
