- This episode includes a brief segment in which real-kids talk about visiting the doctor. Some reasons for visiting include getting stitches and having a check-up. They also talk about getting vaccination shots and getting a sticker after you're done, or maybe even a lollipop.
- There is no Shadow segment in this episode.
- The dog in the Shadow Projects logo in the closing credits makes a sort-of weak "mip mip" noise instead of barking.
