Quotes[]
"Right. I think it was aliens. Aliens from some planet where they don't got enough coal."
- Conductor
"There's nothing scary around here. Well, except that big ugly VENOM vehicle with cannons."
- T-Bob
"Matt, do you read? I'm in one bad squeeze play."
"Sounds like a matter of some 'gravity', Matt."
"Ooh! You've been hanging around T-Bob too much, Alex."
"Sorry."
- Alex Sector and Gloria Baker
"I rate that move a five. Darn, I wish I had a vehicle to drive!"
"Brother, we look like demolition derby rejects. And we've still got to go get Mayhem."
"Wow! If I had all those, I could nickel and dime people to death!"
"If you don't stop those puns, I'm going to confine you to quarters!"
- T-Bob and Scott Trakker at the U.S. Mint.
Satoisms[]
"Perhaps, the ugly one cannot bear to see its own face"
Continuity[]
Night Stalker aka Hurricane revealed
- First episode featuring Hurricane, identified as "Night Stalker".
- An unmasked, mohawked VENOM Henchman was seen unloading raw crystals from a truck with a bulldozer.
- The moral in this episode is virtually the same as the one in episode 33, Caesar's Sword: Don't stick your hand in the garbage disposal.
- This is the first out of four Season One episodes, besides The Spectre of Captain Kidd, The Royal Cape Caper, and Stone Trees in which VENOM agent Sly Rax doesn't appear.
Conflicts[]
- The same shot of Thunderhawk transforming into jet mode and taking off is used thrice. The second time, the footage is flipped horizontally, and Matt Trakker can be spotted behind the wheel on the right side of the car instead of the left.
- Immediately after the first time T-Bob is squashed by the Gravity Weapon, he is seen sitting in the back of Thunderhawk without any damage.
- Thunderhawk's right gull-wing door is shot off by Jackhammer. Later it is still missing in an overhead shot, but back on the car when Thunderhawk passes Shark. After that, it is missing again.
