Trivia

General

• Unlike what Mr. Krabs says, SpongeBob actually has been late to work in the past.
• Squidward is happy about SpongeBob's presumed death, despite feeling guilty about accidentally sentencing SpongeBob to death in "Dying for Pie."
• When this episode first aired, it was paired up with "Senior Discount." 
• The con man says that there's no more models of SpongeBob's alarm clock, but in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, SpongeBob has his alarm clock.
• This Marks Death Clock (C) for the first time since Stuck in the Wringer, 9 in a half years in absence.
• This episode, along with Senior Discount, revived the series from a streak of premieres that got less then one million viewers.

Cultural references

• The Persistence of Memory, made by Spanish artist Salvador Dalí, appears when SpongeBob's Rube Goldberg machine is transporting SpongeBob to work.
  • This is the second time this painting has been referenced in the series. The first time was in "Atlantis SquarePantis."
