Trivia

 * The title comes from a song by Stephen Sondheim from the musical Saturday Night.
 * Although credited, Max Carver (Preston Scavo), Joshua Logan Moore (Parker Scavo) and Kendall Applegate (Penny Scavo) do not appear in this episode.
 * Unlike other networks that may delay programming for sports programming that may run over, Desperate Housewives may not be delayed because of such. That led to outcries after the Checker O'Reilly Auto Parts 500km at Phoenix International Raceway, which was running over because of a rain delay and a late-race red flag, was pushed to ESPN2 in the Eastern and Central Time Zones to protect this episode, leading to a complaint about another Heidi Game ruse.
 * The Solises and Mrs. Hildebrand were watching the 2007 movie Surf's Up, which was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

Episode allusions

 * Brandon, Virginia's waiter, walks into the swimming pool, fully dressed in formal wear. ("Pilot")
