Quotes[]
"Huh! Said they were magicians, did they? That's amusing. The only tricks they know are dirty ones."
- Matt Trakker after being told that V.E.N.O.M. used magic to steal a truckload of plutonium by Duane Kennedy.
"We have to handle this with kid gloves."
"You mean special gloves. That plutonium is highly radioactive."
- Matt Trakker and Hondo McLean
"Last one in the water's an old scrapyard!"
- Scott Trakker to T-Bob
"Next time, M.A.S.K., next time."
Satoisms[]
- "An illusion is little more than a theft from the eye."
Continuity[]
- The sequence of Brad Turner receiving the call from M.A.S.K. while practicing his guitar is used again in Solaria Park.
- When Matt Trakker pats Scott's head twice at 5:13, T-Bob can be seen mimicking the motion as if he is being patted as well.
- Gloria Baker is Gator's co-pilot on this mission.
- Vanessa Warfield is Jackhammer's co-pilot on this mission.
- The episode The Magma Mole features the same message during its safety tip, albeit under different circumstances.
Conflicts[]
- In the opening scene, a military driver refers to his superior as 'Sergeant' but when the man in question gets out of the car he calls himself 'Captain Miller'.
- At 9:05 Gator's grill has the same orange color as the vehicle itself. It should have been gray.
- At 12:25 Backlash's two tubes have the same color as the mask itself. They should have been dark blue.
- At about 14:35 Scott's swimming trunks change from green to blue to green again.
- During the Safety Tip, Scott tells T-Bob he will get hurt if he dives into shallow water. Then Matt looks down from the jetty, says it looks like it's OK and it's about 9 feet, and they all dive in. As if that's a safe way to measure depth.
