  • Abhorrent Admirer: Limburger gets unwanted affections from a cavewoman.
  • Anachronism Stew / Artistic License Palaeontology: This episode makes the classic mistake of depicting dinosaurs and cavemen living in the same era. For bonus points, the age is "four or five million years [in the past]" according to Limburger, which would be both too old for humans and too recent for dinosaurs.
  • Chekhov's Gun: In the beginning of the episode, Vinnie gets a poster of himself. Later, he uses it to trick a dinosaur into crashing into a rock.

  • Hollywood Prehistory: The episode's setting. More precisely, "four or five million years" in the past according to Limburger.

  • No Ontological Inertia: The Biker Mice fix the potholes created in present day from stealing the land the roads were built on by blowing up Limburger's prehistoric base, which also causes the present-day Limburger Plaza to sink to the ground when a giant hole appears beneath it.
  • Time Travel: The episode is built around this.
