TriviaEdit

• Because Operation: P.O.O.L. had not yet occurred, Numbuh 4 hadn't learned to swim yet, which made Numbuh 1 realize he was dreaming when Numbuh 4 was swimming in the island's pool.
• The same headband used in this episode was later used by Numbuhs Infinity and 74.239 on Numbuh 1 again in Operation: W.H.I.T.E.H.O.U.S.E.
• In Chester's dream when he beats Numbuh 1, you can see the other adult villains in the audience.
• This is the first and only time Prof. XXXL is seen without any animal mutations.
• This episode is a parody of the Batman: the Animated Series episode "Perchance to Dream", as well as the Superman comic, "For the Man Who Has Everything".
• When Numbuh 1 realises the truth and his "team" says to him "Very clever, Nigel Uno. Things are not as they appear!", they sound very similar to the Delightful Children From Down The Lane This makes sense, as Numbuhs 1, 2, 4, & 5 have the same voice actors as the DCFDTL.
• This episode is a lot like the movie Coraline, where Numbuh 1 and Coraline find a place that's absolutely perfect, only to find that it was a trap.
