Trivia & References
The title refers to the chain fast food place in the episode "Plucky Pennywhistle's Magic Menagerie", which is similar to the real life chain Chuck E. Cheese, which combines kids arcade games, entertainment and fast food. The name "Pennywhistle" may be a parody of Pennywise, the evil fanged clown in Stephen King's novel (and subsequent movie) It.
The opening sequence of Sam running from the clowns recalls the opening sequence of 4.06 Yellow Fever, where Dean, infected with Ghost Sickness which amplifies fear, is running in terror from a Yorkshire Terrier. That episode also featured a countdown clock.
This episode features the second variant on the Title Card for the season. The first one was the exploding wedding cake for 7.08 Season Seven, Time for a Wedding!.
Dean: I am the Eggman
Following the scene with Sam's fight with the clowns at the beginning of the episode, the episode returns to sixty hours earlier, with a digital clock on the screen. Throughout the episode it counts down the events leading to the fight, until the fight occurs and the timestamp reads RIGHT FRIGGIN NOW
Dean: Fred Savage. Really? Yeah I know big mouths are everywhere.
Dean: You got anything on Wonder Woman?
Dean: So what are we looking for? Octovamp? Vamptopuss?
Dean: Mom, Dad, nanny. man that is a love triangle straight out of Casa Erotica.
Dean: I can't argue with this. Leprechauns are deadly.
In 2.13 Houses of the Holy, when Dean is disputing the existence of angels, he acknowledges to Sam that there is a lot of lore on them, as there also is on unicorns: "In fact, I hear that they, they ride on silver moonbeams, and they shoot rainbows out of their ass." In this episode as the unicorn canters away, it is seen to shoot rainbows out of its ass, thus confirming Dean's "lore".
The scene where Saul the janitor gets attacked by a shark in the ball pit recreates the iconic first attack in Jaws.
Dean: Shark week man. How do you not watch that? Whole week of sharks!
Dean: You mainlined the koolaid, huh?
Dean: We don't care if you broke bad or whatever.
Cliff: You ever 'shroom in a ballpit?
Sam: Getting my ass kicked by those juggalos tonight was...therapeutic.
Dean: The one guy who was gonna rat, he got Bruced.
