Allusions:

- The school bus was destroyed by a tripod from War of the Worlds.
- The bus that runs Betty over is actually the Six Flags bus.
- Mrs. Grundy's death is partly based on the board game Mouse Trap.
- The Grim Reaper in this skit seems to look like the Family Guy version, but doesn't seem to talk.
Trivia / Info:
- This segment was cut from the Season 2 DVD set due to copyright issues, but it now can be found in the Deleted Scenes section of the Season 5 DVD and Blu-ray sets. This sketch, as well as the entire episode, is also included on Netflix, Hulu, and later on HBO Max for streaming.
- The more recent airings of this episode include a season 1 deleted scene, Citizen Spears, in place of this sketch. The episode was renamed Blankets in a Pig. However, the original episode is included on Netflix Hulu & HBO Max, while Citizen Spears, as well as the entire replacement episode, was not included on the Netflix/Hulu version.
- The premonition sequence occurs on a bus ride. In the actual Final Destination series, a premonition featuring a bus ride on a collapsing bridge is featured in Final Destination 5.
Goofs / Nitpicks:
- When he is slipping on his vomit, Jughead is facing right. When he lands on his hat, however, he is facing left.
- Chuck disappears after telling everyone that they're haunted according to where they sat on the bus.
