At the 80s-themed engagement party, most of the cast are dressed up as 80s celebrities:
- Panini is dressed as Cyndi Lauper
- Mung Daal is dressed as Michael Jackson from Michael Jackson: Thriller (1983) (even dancing a few steps from that song)
- Schnitzel is dressed up as Boy George
- Truffles is dressed up as Cher
- Gazpacho is dressed up as Dee Snider
- Chowder is dressed up as a member of the 80s rap group Cameo
- and Ms Endive is dressed up as Madonna.
The small music video where Chowder meets the Veggie Guru sounds a lot similar to Prabhu Deva's music video "Kalluri Vaanil" (or "Benny Lava" as it's known in the United States) from Pennin Manathai Thottu (2000).
Todd gets the teddy bear at a place called Construct-A Bear, a parody of Build-A Bear.
