Trivia & References

The title "What's Up, Tiger Mommy?" is a smashup of 2 references. One is to the book Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother by Amy Chua, about her experiences growing up between two cultures, and of being a parent. The other reference is to the 1966 Woody Allen comedy What's Up, Tiger Lily?" which dubbed original dialogue over the footage of a Japanese spy movie.
In 7.21 Reading Is Fundamental and 7.22 There Will Be Blood Mrs Tran was played by Khaira Ledeyo. In Season 8 she is played by Lauren Tom.
This episode marks the very first time that Crowley has shown his Demon Eyes. They are red like the other CrossRoads Demons, which Crowley was before he became King Of Hell. When he leaves the body of Linda Tran, his corporeal form (smoke) is red, the first time this has been seen.
Tyler Johnston who played Samandriel also played Matt Pike, the bug obsessed kid in 1.08 Bugs. Alex Diakun who played Mr Vili also played the Reaper in 1.12 Faith.
Mr Vili is named after Vili who is the brother of the Norse god Odin, ruler of Asgard. Odin was the father of Thor who owned Mjölnir, which Mr Villi bought at the auction using the 5/8ths of a virgin and the bone of a frost giant Ymir another being from Norse mythology.
