Trivia[]
- Donna reminds Kitty how they never noticed the '70s gang smoking weed in the basement and worries about their sense of smell. As seen in "Reefer Madness" and "Class Picture", Eric, Kelso, and Hyde started doing it during their early teens, and it took Red and Kitty until the Season 7 finale "Till the Next Goodbye" to catch them in the act. While they were furious at the teens for smoking, they quickly moved on and didn't notice the circles resuming in their basement from "Misfire" onward, despite now knowing what weed smells like. Adding to the legitimacy of Donna's concerns is the time she caught Ozzie, Nikki, and Fez smoking weed in the basement the previous year.
- The teens catch Kitty smoking a cigarette. She used to smoke during the first two seasons of That '70s Show (in fact, her subplot in "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" was about trying to quit) and her habit got phased out in Season 3 due to Debra Jo Rupp quitting the habit in real life.
- Leia mistakes a slaughterhouse for a "cow daycare". According to Eric in "Hey, Hey What Can I Do?", Point Place has an unusually high number of slaughterhouses due to Wisconsin's focus on dairy products.
- Due to the cliffhanger ending (and the uncertainty of the show continuing on a new network), it is unknown if Leia will be allowed to stay in Point Place with her friends after all. It is also unknown if her and Jay's relationship is done for good.
