Trivia / Info:
- This segment was noticed by The Brothers Chaps, who were not fans of the sketch, though it was mostly due to the creators of Robot Chicken not asking for permission to use the characters.
- The General asking Strong Bad how he types with handcuffs on his hands is a reference to his e-mail spin-off series.
Goofs / Nitpicks:
- The King of Town is depicted here as having an Irish accent. However, in the original series, he doesn't have one.
- Even though Strong Bad says the word "crap" numerous times while being interrogated in this sketch, he only said the word a few times in the early days of the original series. He even cringes when a fan sends him an email with the word "crap" in the original web cartoon.
- Pom Pom, Marzipan, Strong Sad, Bubs, Coach Z and The Poopsmith are all missing from this sketch, yet the relatively obscure characters Frank Benedetto and Bear Holding A Shark appear.
