Trivia

• In a blooper, Craig is paired with two girls (Milly Larsen and Red) by Ms. Garrison. However, when the children actually pair up for the project, Craig goes with Red and Milly goes with Clyde.
• This episode is the first time where Sally, Lola, Esther, and Milly appear in Herbert Garrison's class.
• This episode shows that Stan and Wendy still have feelings for each other despite breaking up in "Raisins".
• 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 Milly
  • Token and Lola
  • Bradley and Esther
  • Timmy and Annie
• Although Bebe and Wendy are also paired as a same-sex couple for the egg project, Ms. Garrison didn't consider their results in her "scientific study".
• When Stan and Kyle are running through the crowd, Thomas Tucker and Richard Tweak can be seen in their metrosexual outfits.
  • When the Gay Marriage Rights were allowed, you can see the metrosexual versions of Stuart McCormick and Randy Marsh. However, they don't have moustaches.

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 ginger.
• 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.
• The egg that Ms. Garrison hands over to Token is ironically darker colored than the rest.

References to Popular Culture

• The scene in which Kyle reveals he had hidden the real egg and replaces the one "killed" by the assassin is a reference to Star Trek. When Kyle asks Stan if he really thinks his hat is stupid (a comment made by Stan over the phone earlier in the episode), Stan approaches Kyle and 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 (he's not wearing gloves) 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".

Goofs

• 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.
