* [[Book Ends]]

* [[Shout-Out]]: Leela's attempted execution contains visual references to ''[[Metropolis]]'' (the pod she's confined in, and the control panels). The opening shots of Cordo are a copy of the opening shots of Winston Smith in the famous 1950s BBC version of ''[[Nineteen Eighty-Four]]''.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: The Collector, upon realizing the revolution has finally caught up with him, is reduced to a babbling wreck as he slowly (and literally) goes down the drain.
