Credits
  • When baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO3) and vinegar (acetic acid, CH3CO2H) come into contact with each other, a great deal of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) is suddenly produced. If allowed to escape, this can be used to propel a rocket. If confined, it can explode with great force.
  • Innuendo: The word "jackass" is shown in this episode when Stinky was holding up the Jackass Kicking Louisiana Hot Sauce. The term jackass refers to the slang normally used to describe a donkey or an ignorant person.
  • The plot is similar to the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Life of Crime" in that someone mistakenly thought they had committed a crime.
  • This episode is the second appearance of Sid's mom and Stinky's mom, the first being "Parents Day".
  • This is the only episode where someone foils Arnold's plan (Harold, Stinky, and Sid).
  • The Furnace in the Sunset Arms basement was an "Acme" brand furnace. Acme was a fictional producer of multiple products in the Looney Tunes shorts.
  • The firefighters and policemen on the bus are caricatures of the Hey Arnold! crew.
  • Moral: Stealing is wrong and can get you in trouble.
