Trivia
General
The title card background is similar to those of "The Getaway" and "Squid's on a Bus," except that the former is blue and the latter is orange. Those scenes also appear in rapid sliding transitions in the normal episodes.
This was the first episode that premiered in 2020 and the 2020s decade.
This was the first 22-minute/double-length episode that premiered after Stephen Hillenburg's lifetime.
This episode preceded the series premiere of the Nickelodeon animated series It's Pony.
Promotions and several TV schedules for this episode have alternatively titled it "Escape from Glove World," excluding the "Beneath" part.
This is the second time Mary Walker is seen without her wig, the first time being in "Glove World R.I.P."
Much like "Glove World R.I.P.," this episode does not contain the exclamation point at the end of Glove World!'s name in the title like how it appears on the entrance sign.
This is the first special to feature only two major characters - SpongeBob and Patrick, with everyone else being absent.
The little girl speaks Pig Latin when she says "Let's am-scray!"
It's unknown how mice and butterflies are able to exist underwater, especially when in "Wormy" Sandy brought a butterfly from the surface and it needed a bubble to be underwater.
Cultural references
Hieronymus Glove may be based on Walt Disney since he looks very similar to him. They even reference the rumor that Walt Disney was cryogenically frozen when they reveal that Hieronymus Glove was frozen in ice.
