Trivia

  • The "Made By Hand (and Tentacle)" intro of this episode is done in a real time manner where models are used, where normally it is animated.
  • The armored truck company is called Binks (a parody of the Brinks company), and the drivers/guards are, appropriately, modeled on the Star Wars character Jar Jar Binks.
  • The tune 'Rich Lobster' which is played when Zoidberg appears at the casino parodies the song Big Spender (made famous by Shirley Bassey), from the Broadway musical Sweet Charity.
  • The part where the Professor says "dude, where's my spaceship" refers to the comedy film Dude, Where's My Car?.
  • The Wong's other hotel and casino, Wong's Island closely resembles Treasure Island in Las Vegas.
  • The complex heist scheme is reminiscent of 1960's Ocean's Eleven and its contemporary remake/sequels.
