Random Final Observations:
- Second lowest rated episode of the season with a 0.986 rating.
- The episode begins with the Monarch comfortable in his bed and ends with him shaking in his bed.
- Reoccurring jokes about free ink pens are a staple this season.
- When Doc mentions to Brock that he doesn't need another 'Olestra' on his hands, this is a reference to the food additive from 1996 that was initially used in Lay's potato chips and caused controversy and anal leakage.
- There was a ton of ketchup in that burger Billy was Hasselhoff-ing around with.
- Besides that "Red Reaper" villain I forgot to mention previously, all the other villains on the Monarch's hit list I listed descriptions of correctly... except nix the walrus villian. It looks like a spider villain actually, as I can now confirm he has multiple eyes.
- Manolo really fixed the Morphomobile, I mean... it flys just fine now and before it wouldn't even start normally.
- The Morpho Scooters look like they are actually hovercrafts... ermm, or something like personal airboats.
- Even though it rarely appears in shot, Wide Wale definitely has a blowhole on the top of his skull.
- Hank intelligently wears a moustache while working at the pizza parlor now, the ultimate (and comedic) disguise from villainy.
- Great observational humor with the line: "Why didn't anyone tell me we could just hologram in?" - Red Mantle
- The sheer amount of visual/sight gags in this episode are impressive, there are so many things to read and catch it's almost daunting.
- Ye Old BattleAxe, XXX Video, Stationary Cigars Candy Toys, OTB, Liquor, S'trokey's Totally Nude Full Bar, and Laundromat. Just a few of the buildings/signs in that rundown neighborhood.
- A bad animation error occurs almost immediately in the bar when Jagermeister's brown antlers pop-off and duplicate momentarily against the brown brick background.
- Billy probably would've loved Think Tank too, it's the giant head thing. Giant craniums are a reoccurring trope in the Venture universe. Think Tank is also a college professor, a classic trope of Marvel super villainy.
- All twelve of Dr. Mrs. the Monarch's visible e-mails are basically text gags. The Monarch wants TP, PL is dishing out another recipe, Watch wants his juice box, Dragoon is trolling with wolves, and Meteor Majeure has scheduled maintenance... just to name a few.
- The previous episode took place on October 7th according to the tapes, and the entire season seemingly takes place over the course of one week from Rusty's comments.
- Pirate Captain is pretty much running the whole company at this point.
- I'm happy someone else listed all of Brock's numerous nicknames from Think Tank's data screen.
- A van with a serious bull motif going on is seen briefly in the impound lot, a Manotaur reference perhaps?
- Instead of a gross made-up drink, Venture appears to be enjoying a regular cognac.
- Brock is once again rescued from falling to his death by happenstance.
- The big red button was the activation switch for flight mode in the Morphomobile.
- Venture purposefully was given a bad pen so it's leak on him.
- All the parking tickets obstructively blocking her view... probably didn't help BattleAxe from crashing. But was a nice animation touch seeing as where they just were. Anyway, she died in the same hole as her husband, almost poetic.
- Jackson's voice credits are screwed up. He didn't voice Hatred in this one but is listed as so, and several characters actually voiced don't get listed. There was probably a deleted scene of Hatred and Dean at the hospital... but it doesn't explain the errors.
- Brock continually fibs to Warriana yet he knows about her lasso... he must like being tied up as well.
- Warriana's full name/alias is revealed in this episode: Alexis Warrington.
- Hank now knows about the bugs Wide Wale hid... interesting, that'll probably come up again.
- Jeffrey Wright voiced Think Tank, what's funny is he actually looks a bit like the character.
- And lastly, who can blame Monarch for wanting to kill Manolo... this is the first episode any construction actually gets completed. But... you do pay for the quality.
That's it. Bring on the final three episodes.

Addendum:
- Billy and White have officially moved in with Rose, the Action Man, and Colonel Gentleman.
- Think Tank is a parody of Marvel supervillain MODOK.
- The long-running joke of Rusty hitting on Dr. Mrs. resurfaces.
- The direct phone line to the mayor hidden in the bust is a reference to countless superhero programs and comics from decades ago.
- Think Tank appropriately has a very similar moustache to Friedrich Nietzsche. Perfectly fit for a villain whose beyond good and evil.
- Ye Old Battleaxe has so many axes for decorations... it is beyond hilarious. A few outside, some above the bar, one on the bathroom door, and some paintec on the logo sign.
- Pirate Captain is officially the C.O.O. of Ven. Tech. Industries.
- Warriana has a W on her coffee mug.
- Brock's OSI clearance level is only at 8 and his urine temperature is .98.
- Think Tank avoids Brock at first but... obviously the only fun he has during the home invasion is fighting with Brock.
- For some reason I really like Think Tank's magical tank treads. To scale a building so effortlessly with a big tank/mech suit is quite impressive. It was done for comedic reasons... but I thought it was pretty neat and unexpected. And I enjoyed how it was never addressed or explained furthermore. Just one of his special powers, like his energy shield.
- White just keeps pushing for them to STILL take god gas to Science Now. Hilarious.
- Brock's metal plate likely helped save his life fro the cannon blast.
- Think Tank ditches his purple cowel by the time he leaves the Venture's.
- Watch and Ward just toss the cellphone in the back when they takeoff after Battle Axe, it's incredibly brief and funny.
- Dr. Mrs. the Monarch has official GCI digital binoculars.
