Trivia[]

This episode is the first time where Sally, Lola, Esther, and Millie appear in Herbert Garrison's class.
This episode shows that Stan and Wendy still have feelings for each other despite breaking up in "Raisins".
- Stan and Wendy would later reconcile their relationship in "The List".
The couples in the egg project are initially:
- Stan and Bebe (later Stan and Kyle)
- Kyle and Wendy (later Bebe and Wendy)
- Cartman and Heidi
- Kenny and Powder
- Craig and Red
- Clyde and Millie
- Tolkien and Lola
- Bradley and Esther
- Timmy and Annie
Butters Stotch does not appear in this episode, despite the plot heavily involving the class. (see 'Continuity')
- Kevin Stoley, Pip Pirrip, Tweek Tweak, and Francis also do not appear in the classroom in this episode and a few others. All four return to the classroom in "Cartoon Wars Part I".
Cartman does not directly interact with Stan, Kyle, or Kenny in this episode.
Although Bebe and Wendy are also paired as a same-sex couple for the egg project, Ms. Garrison did not consider their results in her "scientific study" (perhaps the main reason to focus on Stan and Kyle is because of Big Gay Al and Mr. Slave's marriage).
When Stan and Kyle are running through the crowd, Thomas Tucker, Ryan Valmer, Skeeter, and Richard Tweak can be seen in their metrosexual outfits.
- When the Gay Marriage Rights were passed, Stuart McCormick and Randy Marsh appear in their metrosexual costumes, albeit without moustaches to appear as different characters.
The paperwork about the egg that Stan and Kyle had to turn in read the following: Morning: Woke up at 7am. Washed egg in sink. Dried. Dusted in baby powder. Dressed egg in overalls and combed hair. EGG IS VERY HAPPY!! Afternoon: After lunch egg watched basketball game on the playground. After, took nap. Stan is a protective father. Evening: Took shower with egg. Egg went to bed at 8:40pm.

References to Popular Culture[]

When Kyle asks Stan if he really thinks his hat is stupid, Stan says, "As a matter of fact, I think it is the nicest hat I have ever known". Stan uses exactly the same intonation and style of Captain Picard in Star Trek: First Contact, when he apologizes to Mr. Worf after calling him a coward by saying: "In fact, I think you're the bravest man I have ever known".
The song Mrs. Garrison sings, "Love Lost Long Ago", sounds very similar to "Love Changes Everything", the theme song from Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical, Aspects of Love.
When Stan is sitting at the coffee table and then at the kitchen table, Stan's arms are drawn similarly to those of Linus and Charlie Brown from Peanuts, usually as they are leaning on the brick wall. He has large forearms and his fingers are displayed; at the kitchen table, one arm is resting on the table and his other hand on the side of his face, a pose often assumed by Peanuts characters.

Continuity[]

This is the second time Kyle has had a bandage around his temple, the first being "Cartman's Incredible Gift".
Initially, Cartman and Heidi are paired. It is likely coincidental but they would actually develop a relationship several seasons later from "The Damned" until their climactic break-up in "Splatty Tomato".
Butters Stotch's absence in this episode was widely assumed to be a result of the previous episode's conclusion, where he was locked in his parents' basement, though this is never confirmed onscreen. He is back in the class in the next episode and replaces Lola's seat.

Goofs[]

When handing out pairings, Mrs. Garrison states that Craig will be partnered with two girls: Millie and Red. However, when assigning names to the board, Craig is assigned to Red and Millie goes with Clyde.
In one scene in the class, Wendy is talking to Mrs. Garrison who is behind Stan and Kyle; however, Wendy is looking left but Stan's desk is to the right of the classroom.
When Stan calls Kyle, he has a glass of water next to him on the coffee table. After Stan hangs up to him and right before the doorbell rings, the water has disappeared.
When Mrs. Garrison tells Stan and Kyle that two boys cannot possibly take care of an egg, Kenny is sitting next to Bebe on the far right. When Mrs. Garrison tells the class to make fun of Stan and Kyle's egg for having "two daddies", Wendy is sitting next to Bebe on the far right.
When Mrs. Garrison grabs Cartman and threatens him, her mouth disappears for a couple split seconds.
In the frame before it cuts to Mrs. Garrison informing Wendy that she will be working with Kyle, Heidi can be seen without a left hand.
When Mrs. Garrison hands Cartman his egg, Heidi is wearing red gloves. In the next frame when Mrs. Garrison hands Tolkien his egg, her gloves are gone.

Bebe Stevens — Stan and Kyle with different colored hair.

Near the end of the episode, Stan and Kyle's hair are seen coming outside of their hats. Strangely, Stan's hair is brown and Kyle's hair is light brown.
