Trivia
The Phone that Dr. Horrible uses for the Van Tracking Device in ACT II is an iPhone with AT&T as the carrier. The time on the phone was also 4:57pm and the "fake" app he was using was called 'Horrible Van Remote'.

Goofs
After Dr. Horrible is beaten at the bridge dedication, he blogs with a bloody left eye and a bruise below it. When he visits Penny at the laundromat, he has no injuries.

Quotes
Penny: He's a really good looking guy and I thought he was kind of cheesy at first.
Dr. Horrible: [under his breath] Trust your instincts.
Penny: But, he turned out to be totally sweet. Sometimes people are layered like that. There's something totally different underneath than what's on the surface.
Dr. Horrible: And sometimes there's a third, even deeper level, and that one is the same as the top surface one. Like with pie.
