  • Brian walks into the dining room while Lois describes her dream, attempting to sneak out upon discovering what she's talking about, but gets caught and is forced to listen.
  • Meg and Chris wear lockets containing cyanide pills, which they bite into, allowing them to pass out and avoid having to listen to Lois' dream summary.

    • A full moon is visible behind them, but the Titanic sank on a moonless night.[1]

  • Carter's first suggestion to fix his image is to pay someone to do something worse, in hopes that the world will forget his mistake.

  • Carter has never heard of skipping before, and thus when he sees Tatum doing it, he mistakes it for her having Parkinson's.

  • Carter plans to grab a receipt for the adoption in case has a club leg. He insists on getting the receipt anyway even after learning she does not have one.
  • Peter suggests that he could've let Carter take in Stewie if he wanted a little girl, a comment that Stewie takes offense to.
  • Brian tends to roll over whenever he hears the word "belly," demanding belly rubs. Chris notes that he tends to get erections upon receiving such rubs.
  • Lois claims that Carter didn't know her name until she was eight and never took her to the zoo in the 80s.
  • Carter decides not to take his business call from Mr. Important until it's specified that it's Mr. Important from the massage parlor.

  • While Lois details another bizarre dream she had, one woman refuses to back away, wanting to detail her own dream after hearing her out.
  • After Lois was born, Babs was so jealous of the attention she got that she would sometimes stick Lois' head into the oven and attempt to cook her. Carter never told her this until now.
    • Carter also mentions that he and Babs had three other kids who did not live, yet he doesn't mention Patrick or Carol.
  • While enjoying dinner with Tatum and Babs, Carter notes how difficult it is to hear each other due to the lengthy table, before stating that Tatum has to leave.
