Trivia
Sonnie's blacklight body paint, when illuminated, shows snake scales and a split diagram of a brain, possibly hinting at the twist ending of the short.

Quotes
Sonnie: Hate. That was something I had to learn. You don't come into this world with hate, but fear, that's primal. It fills your senses. You can see it, hear it, taste it, and it keeps me alive.
