This entire episode was a long continuous scene.
This is the first time that the gangs the Satan Knights and the Warlords are mentioned. Of course, later on JJ and Michael would be forced into joining both gangs. Also, a third gang, the Dukes, are mentioned but they never appeared during the run of the series.
Florida cooked a hot meal. To warm the apartment, they could've set the oven to 400° and opened the door to keep from freezing.
This episode must be a continuation of "Junior the Senior" cause Thelma is wearing the same clothes. (Yellow shirt and jeans w/ color patterns)
Heat, water and refrigerator not working, but the lights are. The electricity should power the fridge and furnace... so the lights should be off too.
