    • Trivia
      The little girl in a Rat costume who looks like Ashley is her little sister Anastasia N. Ali. She also played as Bashley in the 100th episode "What's Will Got to Do With It? (1)".
    • Goofs
      Geoffrey introduces the party to Cinderella. When the girl is talking to Will you can here "Someday My Prince Will Come" in the background. This is an error because that song is from Snow White not Cinderella.
