Continuity

Allusions

• The book Crosswords for Dummies! is a spoof of the For Dummies book series.
• After Pete and Scientist #1 arrive, the ghosts tell Norb and Dag to "Lose These Goons" with strawberry jelly on the wall. This is probably imitating blood appearing on a wall from a scary movie.
• "In the Hall of the Mountain King" - Scientist #1 plays a tape on the recorder and sings his own words to Grieg's symphony while he and Pete capture ghosts in jars.
• Poltergeist - At the end of the episode, Scientist #1 and Pete are trapped in the TV by the ghosts. This seems to be an imitation of 1982 horror film, where someone is trapped in a TV.
