Mermaid Man calling Barnacle Boy "Kyle" is a Star Wars reference. LucasArts and Raven Software created a PC game series called Jedi Knight, where in three of the four games in the series, the main character is Kyle Katarn. In each game, your actions eventually determine whether you join the Light or Dark Side. Since Barnacle Boy/Man's name is Kyle, they could be referencing this game.

This is way too tentative. I'd vote to remove Pictureuploader 21:40, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Plastic Man

Isn't Patrick's costume rather a reference to Plastic Man than to Mr. Fantastic? What with the glasses and poses and all. Compare 1 and 2. He even has the line down the middle.

• Actually, both are references. -AMK152 20:32, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

I have a doubt regarding something in the trivia section. There is mention of this episode being included with the fear of a krabby patty dvd. Is it true that the storyboard version incudes a deleted scene, some deleted stuff and extra characters? I doubt this.
