Trivia
- It's the first episode in the whole series which is entirely takes a place in Paddy's Pub (second episode - Chardee MacDennis).
- Instead of standard Sunny Soundtrack here is played some dramatic-action music (like in The Gang Gets Trapped and Thunder Gun Express).
- McPoyles takes their revenge from the Gang for the events of "The Gang Gets Invincible" episode.
- In the beginning of this episode, Charlie used to called himself as Dennis and Dee's "big brother" (because Frank is his possible biological father).
- Kaitlin Olson's pinky toe was broken at the time of this episode's shootings, so she barely
could walk back then. - Sylvester Stallone and Dan Aykroyd are both was mentioned in this episode (as possible owners of "Planet Hollywood" reversible leather jackets).
- Charlie is pretty sure what a "Stockholm syndrome" is a physical disease.
- When Frank says "Yippie ki-ay, Mr. Falcon" it's a refrence to the famous voice over done for T.V. purposes of Bruce Willis' line "Yippie ki-ay, motherfucker" in the movie "Die Hard".
- In this episode, Liam used to licking Dee's face - he did that so she doesn't notice what their shotguns are rubber. Also, when Charlie was thinking what he sees Dee in the last time, he used to kiss her and say "I love you" (then he gave Dee another slap).
- This episode contains the first (and only yet) appearance of "Charlie's BAD room" - it's a place on the attic of Paddy's, where Charlie "goes to be alone and break bottles" (according to Mac).
