The three-headed dog that Raven summons in this episode is likely a reference to Fluffy, a Cerberus which is a three-headed dog that protects the Greek mythological Underworld, from the Harry Potter film series, which also has a similar objective to the late part of this episode.
- Also, the hundreds of dog heads that she splits them into resemble Scooby-Doo, making this the second time that Scooby-Doo was referenced in the series. However, Scooby-Doo was also referenced in the New Teen Titans short, "Turn Back the Clock."
