Trivia[]
- The characters paired up for this mission are Dashi, Tweak, and Ranger Marsh.
- Phil and Flo from The Flamingos make their second appearances in this episode. However whilst Phil is shown on-screen, Flo isn't, as only her voice is heard,
- This episode sees Marsh beginning to warm up to the Gup-K much better, best showcased when he takes it for a drive underwater at the end of the episode.
- Belle is the first freshwater turtle in the series.
- There were three gators that appeared, but only two of them were named (Estelle and Earl) and one remained anonymous.
- Error: When Lucille is surrounded by the alligators. She rolls up into a ball like a regular Armadillo. However in real life, nine banded armadillos cannot actually do this. This is because of the amount of plates they have on their shell to curl up.
- Error: At the point where the gators get spooked by the Gup-K, Estelle has Earl's voice.
