* BrokenBase: This is probably the most controversial episode in the series, due to its bizarre, slapstick premise and the fact it's the only episode in the entire series that could be classified as {{filler}}, with fans tending to either love or hate it. Notably, on [=IMDb=], it's the episode with the lowest rating (the only one below an 8/10) and has an extraordinarily high number of ratings (even above [[WhamEpisode episodes]] like "End Times", "Crawl Space", and "Say My Name").

* GeniusBonus: Walt tells Jesse that he has pressurized the lab in attempt to keep the fly in. Anyone familiar somewhat with scuba-diving knows that subjecting yourself to increased pressure for a prolonged period of time puts you at risk of inducing the condition known as [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_narcosis nitrogen narcosis]], which causes the sufferer to experience and exhibit symptoms closely resembling those of drunkenness. Aside from the ExhaustionInducedIdiocy Walt likely suffers from having stayed up all night, this could be an explanation for much for his unhinged and erratic behavior.
