Trivia[]
- "DWYCK" is a song from the album Hard To Earn of the hip-pop duo Gang Starr. It is an acronym meaning "Do What You Can Kid".
- During the conversation between Dr. Krasner and Misty Knight, he brings her a can of lemonade. He says to her, "Lemonade, a popular drink." Then she replies, "And it still is." This is a direct reference to the episode title that is taken from the Gang Starr song of the same name. It is from Guru's verse that goes "Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is, I get more props and stunts than Bruce Willis...."
