"Hungry Vagina Metaphor" (sung by Rikki Lindhome)

"Itchy Vagina Metaphor" (sung by Fred Armisen)

"Funky Vagina Metaphor" (sung by Todrick Hall)

"Elated Vagina Metaphor" (sung by Rebekkah Johnson)

"Nostalgic Vagina Metaphor" (sung by Megan Amram and Jack Dolgen)

  • Affectionate Parody: Of "Memory" from Cats. Nostalgia Cat starts singing about Rebecca's vagina being nostalgic before Doggy Dog cuts in.
  • Creator Cameo: "Doggy Dog" is played by Jack Dolgen, one of the writers of the show, while Nostalgia Cat is played by Megan Amram, one of the writers of The Good Place.


Tropes:

  • Shipper on Deck: At the end of the episode, the five cats express which of Rebecca's suitors they prefer.
  • Stealth Pun: It's not a coincidence that the state of Rebecca's vagina is represented by cats.
  • Take That!: The entire episode is this to Cats, which has been established in-universe as Rebecca's least favorite musical. The clincher has to be her own description of her vaginal odor as smelling "worse than the wedged-in plot device of the Heaviside Layer."
