** The episode's plot is a partial reference to the episode ''Only Human'' of the original Transformers Cartoon, in which 4 Autobots are temporarily transformed into humans, notably Optimus' hypothesis as to how they are transformed into humans (their minds extracted and placed in human bodies) is how the transformation takes place in that episode.
