* AlanSmithee: He's listed as having done the animation for the episode, likely as a joke given that the episode is a horror B-movie pastiche.

Added DiffLines:

* AnvilOnHead: When the Pod Lumpys have taken over at the end of the episode, one of them is seen with a safe having fallen on its head. Given that this is ''Happy Tree Friends'', the result is a lot bloodier than most examples, though not as graphic as you'd expect since the Pod Lumpys have green blood.


Added DiffLines:

* ManOnFire: At the end of the episode, when Lumpy's clones replace everyone else in town, one of them is seen on fire in the background.

Added DiffLines:

* TechnicolorToxin: The poison Lumpy pours into his cropduster to get rid of the Pod Lumpys is green.

* TooDumbToLive: Sniffles lets one of the Pod Lumpys scrub off his face while it's cleaning his glasses. Keep in mind that it took a long time for his face to be scrubbed off and apparently Sniffles didn't do anything about it during the entire time.

* FlamingMeteor: The asteroid that sets off the plot is depicted as a rock with a fiery tail travelling through space, even before it breaks apart to reveal the alien seed inside it upon entering the atmosphere.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: In the Blurb version. When Lumpy is shown chopping, the blurb notes that "Lumpy always ends up chopping off his leg when he chops wood. Just wait and see". Sure enough, once Lumpy puts his new Pod clone to work chopping wood, it does just that, revealing its regenerative abilities.



* PicturePerfectPresentation: Near the start of the episode, Lumpy reads a newspaper article about a meteor. The scene then cuts from the black-and-white photo of it in the article to the real thing, which flies through space before finally breaking apart to reveal a seed that lands in Lumpy's seed bag.

''PEAS IN A POD'' - Presented in SCREAM-O-TASTIC" with the typical old horror font for the title, and there is a {{Sinister Silhouette|s}} of a Pod Lumpy with an axe in a background.
