- Hilarious in Hindsight:
- The episode is like a script from the Final Destination franchise, which would debut three months after this episode debuted; after surviving a plane crash, a guy does not die himself but people around him die in Necro Non Sequitur ways.
- The punk who took Henry's lottery ticket and promptly gets run over by a truck, because he runs onto the street, celebrating. The very same scene happens at the start of My Name Is Earl 4 years later. Furthermore, My Name Is Earl is about a guy who was unlucky all his life and who tries to become lucky by cleaning up his karma by helping people. Henry was basically his prototype.
