There was in fact a little snow in this episode at least once.

Pirate Captain teleported into history. Although, Rusty dimension jumped through Fat Chance previously. But it is ultimately different.

RIP Tiny Eagle? Maybe he was just very, very badly injured and didn't bleed to death?

This episode was in fact, a game-changer and a bit of a unicorn, in that it was soo good.
But VB is always good. Probably the most consistent show ever.

Dot Com got a new voice actor. Seems SNL stars get busy w/ films and ditch the show. Hader also eventually ducked out. Anyway, the new VO did a great job.

I wonder how much Rusty experienced was actually in VR?
Brock blindfolded him, so... it's implied the whole orgy was a VR dream.

Good to see Manolo again.

Two films are the basis for the A and B plots. The heist is an Ocean's parody / while the Orgy is an 'Eyes Wide Shut' parody.

Red Moco Cooler returns.

The Illuminati members include many recognizable silhouettes. The Mexican doctor from "Dia" is the most interesting one to me. Brizzby (spelling?) is the most obvious. He even wears a bee mask.

This episode in particular is hilarious and felt somewhat like a season finale.

21 is almost always more capable and competent vs. The Monarch.

The Monarch is accidentally indestructible, just like his bro Rusty, and always survives disastrous falls.

Orgy Dr. Mrs. is surprisingly hot!

Copycat has his logo on his helicopter, not great for a heist. Even if you frame bozos.

Mark Hamil was really great as Presto. And Presto was damn funny.
Brock stuck on stairmaster Presto was hilarious!

RIP most of the crew from the heist. But... Copycat and Presto may have lived...
we'll see. Presto may get brain damage and live. Maybe he'll be extra psychotic and more Joker esque perhaps?

If an episode has teleportation... you must make an 'The Fly' joke.

Both Rusty and Malcom are unicorns. Ventunicorns.

The Driver X (non-existent) character is a Speed Racer parody.

Dummy Corp is an OSI dummy corporation that "makes mannequins" as the cover. I just got that.

Presto never changes into a Man Truck during the heist.

While obviously not intentional; Presto is very Meatwad like and the portals are very similar to Rick's portal gun.

I think next weeks episode is the black widower/gold digger storyline.
So maybe Venture realizes he didn't actually get laid.

Love the Speed Racer "Racer X" reference, but I thought initially "The Stig" from the TV show Top Gear. Anyone else?

I first thought of the Stig, too, but the racing uniform needed to be white. Oh, and we DO see who's inside the helmet.

I think Driver X was also The Stig from Top Gear:

Glad to see the lesser villains get some extended play. And good to get the clever throwaway names they give to them. I want to know the name of the guy with the stovepipe hat and the radiation symbol:

I was anticipating some Larry Niven stuff on the teleportation. Or maybe Tron. Or a quick Portal gag of someone falling infinitely.

And, hey, didn't Rusty have his dad's old prototype teleporter? Or did JJ build that first one, from S02E01? Did he actually make a teleporter himself, or did he just reuse his predecessor's achievements?

I am curious of when the vr session started. I hope we never know.

R.I.P Ramburglar.

Not sure if anyone will get some Niven teleportation, pretty obscure ref there!

I am so proud of this episode going (Publick with &) deeper into the whole gestalt of the VB world. We are seeing behind the curtain & it's a mugs game folks..

Also, I think one of the Illuminati was L. Ron.
"We Can Thank Them"?

Among the silhouette heads, I think I spotted Gen. Manhowers (the hat), and the Mexican University dean from S1 E1, and possibly Dr. Quentin Ball as seen in the G.C. I. Facebook that The Monarch was perusing in from Home Is Where The Hate Is.

Dr. Q Ball is a double agent; he was seen getting one of those Uber-large checks from Dr. V last season & seen @ Don Hells. Double Agent.

"Dummy Corp is an OSI dummy corporation that "makes mannequins" as the cover. I just got that."

Riddler, 1960s:

A man, akin.

Presto is likely a reference to "The Impossible Man" of Marvel.

The color scheme and wacky attitude point to The Impossible Man. I chuckled at Brock’s solution for dealing with him.

-- Dunno if I'd use the word 'surprisingly' when noting Dr. the Mrs.'s hotness.
