Notes

• The sticky note on Whit's clipboard says

"Universal Press?

Portals?

Report access?"

• In the album artwork, inventions from past episodes can be seen, including Whit's Boredom Buster (#31: “Family Vacation, Part 1” and #32: “Family Vacation, Part 2”), the Imagination Station versions 1 & 2 (prototype and model, including the remote), and what looks like a prototype of the Room of Consequence.

• This album features the return of Jack Allen, Joanne Allen, Dale Jacobs in Odyssey, Jason's return to Odyssey, and the return of Captain Absolutely (who was last used in album 52).
