Trivia

• Whitney and Morty appear in this episode in their Generation II designs, rather than their Generation IV designs. This is due to them appearing in a flashback, rather than appearing on TV, like Clair did in An Egg Scramble!.
• The dub title is based on the military concept of bagging and tagging
