Self-Medication: Dr. Venture says "Spirit is up and roving, but opportunity hasn't come back on-line yet." This references the twin Mars rovers (Spirit and Opportunity) that landed in 2004.
Pomp & Circuitry: After Hank pulls the power cord on Sphinx's equipment communicating with Brock, Hunter says "Way to go, Heidi! Samson's down by three with a minute left in the game, and you just cut the feed!" This references the infamous Heidi Game in 1968 between the Raiders and Jets that forever changed how sports broadcasts would be scheduled and broadcast thereafter. The end of the exciting game was never aired as a pre-scheduled television film "Heidi" started at it's scheduled time.

The Silent Partners: Shoreleave says "First one to find a talking harp, wins." This is a reference to Jack and the Beanstalk, where the ogre/giant has a singing harp that Jack steals right from under the ogre's/giant 's nose. Obviously, Monstroso is the ogre/giant and the ship is his castle. This one may have been obvious, but not everyone knows Jack and the Beanstalk.
