Triva[]
- This is the first time Donnie is identified by name.
- This is the first of 3 times Donnie sees Robotboy in normal mode. The other two are Up a Tree and Donnie Turnbull's Day Off.
- Robotboy is able to project video transmissions with his eyes. This is the only episode in which he does so.
- This is the first time Moshimo suggests having to destroy his son for a possible programming error that makes him deadly. The other time is in "The Tune Up". Tommy objects both times. Both episodes were also written by Randolph Heard.
- Tommy was supposed to be in school during the events of this episode. Or Kamikazi could have just said that to tease Tommy.
- Kamikazi has a late-night infomercial, from which Tommy gets the number to Kaziland.
- Goof: Robotboy is shown to have stepped in water from a dropped cup, producing a surge of electricity, but in the scene where the kids are questioning if Ro is evil, there is no cup to be seen.
- Goof: Superactivated Robotboy sustained serious injuries from his battle with the Pirahna-Men, but when he goes back into Activated mode, he's completely fine.
- Continuity error: Standing in water will make electricity surge from Robotboy, but that doesn't happen when he dives into the ocean at all.
- The two scientists in this episode reappear in "Vitamin Sucker".
- This episode is likely a parody of "Terminator".

Calling Dr. Kamikazi
YIKES! >AO Poor Ro ;3;
He's gonna need a lot of repair...oh nevermind.
Ro's most dramatic Superactivation. Also I want the music to this scene.
