Summary Keywords Buy the DVD
Discuss

Jack in the Box
American fast food chain, founded in San Diego, California in 1951. Has over 2000 locations in 17 states, with the most in California. Larry buys food from one when he gets locked out of his car.

Walking through a drive-thru
Larry is refused service at the fast food restaurant because he walks through the drive-thru lane. Businesses commonly refuse service in such a scenario out of a fear of liability if a car behind the pedestrian were to collide with them.

"Worked alongside a dental hygienist.... getting into landscaping"
Pete Hagen's description of his occupational history.

Kidney donor
The donor and recipient have to be ABO blood group compatible or there is a risk of transplant rejection.

The Northeast Community Police Station in Los Angeles serves the communities of Atwater, Cypress Park, Eagle Rock, East Hollywood, Echo Park, Elysian Park, Elysian Valley, Glassell Park, Griffith Park, Highland Park, Los Feliz, Mt. Washington, and Silverlake. Larry and Jeff go there to identify Peter Hagen in a lineup.

"I'm loathe to mention this..."
Larry tells Jeff he is "loathe" to bring up the fact that Jeff is his employee.

Peter Hagen
A.K.A. (or as the detective pronounces it, "aka") Peter the Tork, Wendell the Conspirator, Peter the Crybaby, Joshua, Lancel Stegmeyer.

"Goodnight Nurse"
Jeff uses the same "old saying" that Larry used earlier in this season (in episode 43).

"Eeny, meeny, miny, moe"
Children's counting rhyme: "Eeny, meeny, miny, moe/Catch a tiger by the toe/If it hollers let him go/Eeny, meeny, miny, moe/My mother told me/To pick the very best one/And you are [not] it"
