Continuity[]
- During the agent selection, the M.A.S.K. Computer shows digital images of Brad Turner and Julio Lopez wearing civilian clothing instead of their M.A.S.K. uniforms.
- Miles Mayhem is Stinger's co-pilot during this mission.
- Both Brad Turner and Sly Rax are seen without their sunglasses during this story.
- Miles Mayhem identifies Shark by name and even refers to the Porsche as a 'she'. While it is not unusual to refer to a vehicle as a female, it could also apply to its driver, Gloria Baker.
- This is the third of four Series One episodes, besides Caesar's Sword, Stop Motion and Fog on Boulder Hill, in which V.E.N.O.M. leader Miles Mayhem's main vehicle Switchblade is not brought into action.
Conflicts[]
- Even though Gloria Baker is described as a black belt in Kung Fu by the M.A.S.K. Computer, when she is seen practicing it, she wears a white belt.
- When Simbala runs off carrying T-Bob, she disappears just before Scott's legs obscure her.
- Matt Trakker calls the poisonous mushrooms 'flowers'. Granted, he was losing consciousness when he did so.
- Scott Trakker refers to the M.A.S.K. Transport Jet as a 'hovercraft'.
- Julio Lopez is outside the M.A.S.K. Transport Jet with Matt Trakker as it lands, but then his vehicle, Firefly, is seen driving down its ramp.
- During the final battle, Julio Lopez uses the command "Streamer Oilslick" but fires the cannon on his vehicle, Firefly, instead of his mask, Streamer.
