Trivia

 * This is the last episode of Season 2.

 * This is the first episode to reference previous episodes.
 * 43 characters made an appearance in this episode, the most in the entire series.
 * It is revealed that Nicole can grow muscles.
 * Gumball breaks the fourth wall by noticing how off they looked in the family album, a reference to the transition in drawing style and animation that occurred between Season One and Season Two, and when they were in Jail he said "Where's my happy ending" a reference to every episode so far.
 * In a way, Anais also breaks the fourth wall by saying "show's over" when the whole family ends up in jail.
 * This is the first episode that has actual continuity, as it is stated in this episode that   The Wattersons have to pay for all the damage they've caused in previous episodes.
 * This episode reveals why Larry has so many jobs. Because of all the damage The Wattersons cause when constantly interfering with his life, such as in "The Laziest".
 * The episode ends abruptly in a Deus Ex Machina when Gumball once again breaks the fourth wall saying only a total reality reset could save them.
 * Despite the title, this episode is not the series finale.
 * The goldfish on the box of Fish Flakes in the freezer looks exactly like Darwin but without legs.
 * This episode reveals that the events of "The Sock" gave Mr. Small claustrophobia.

Continuity

 * The list of references from past episodes this episode follows: "The Responsible", "The Mustache", "The Colossus", "The Bumpkin", "The End", "The Car", "The Helmet", "The Robot", "The Storm", "The Sock", "The Microwave", "The Job", "Christmas", "The Watch", "The Lesson", "The Pony", "The Limit".
 * This is Kenneth's second appearance in the series.
 * The music during Richard and Mr. Fitzgerald's "fight" is the same music from The Apology that resembles the Kirk Vs Spock music from Star Trek.
 * The bus from "The Kiss" returns in this episode.
 * Like in "The Kiss", Purple Moose is the bus driver of this exact same bus.
 * The scooters from "The Watch" return in this episode, in the exact same colors driven by Gumball, Darwin, and Richard.

Cultural References

 * In some scenes of the episode, Richard is dressed up like Margaret Thatcher.
 * The bus's license plate reads "Otto 24", a possible reference to Otto Mann, the school bus driver from The Simpsons.

Goofs/Errors
