Peter and Lois meet Stan and Francine Smith.
The guys pay tribute to King of the Hill.

- According to the Channel 5 news report, 87 people committed suicide because of their apocalyptic fears stemming from the practical joke.
- Stewie catches Brian praying thinking the world is going to end and Brian tried to cover it up. Later, Brian goes to volunteer at the soup kitchen to fulfill a promise to 'someone'. Stewie then says that 'someone' is God.
- Once again, Peter sings "Surfin' Bird" from "I Dream of Jesus", this time to get out of jury duty.
- In the cutaway at the Academy Awards, the nominees Peter puts in the ballot box include Grover, Bluto, Red Guy, a boob, and Daniel Day-Lewis. Day-Lewis had actually won two Oscars previously.[2]

- The sniper that shoots Peter has the gamertag of "fourzerotwo". This would indicate that Peter was playing with Robert Bowling, the Community Manager of the game's developer at the time the episode aired.
