Trivia / Info:
- The interceptors that shoot down Santa are F-14 Tomcats.
- The sound of the little girl crying comes from the videogame Silent Hill 3.

Goofs / Nitpicks:
- The remaining F-14 fires an AIM-7 Sparrow missile at Santa from close range; the Sparrow was actually a medium-range missile.
- By the time this episode aired, the F-14 had already been retired. Also, it was historically a Navy fighter, not an Air Force one.
