They arrive at Mona's home to discover that she did not die, she was joining a TV show called The Dead. When Cat stays over at Tori's house, there is a news report about a candle causing a fire at Mona Patterson's house, in which they stated that Mona said something about a 'cat with red fur'. Tori then turns the TV off.

Beck then asks Trina if she's learned her lesson, and they all run out of the house.

Trivia

 * In the original promo for this episode, Cat reads the PearPad and says that they'll be in San Diego in an inch-and-a-half. However, in the actual episode, this is changed to 63 miles.
 * In the sneak peak Jade makes a disgusted noise when Mona said who's wife she will be playing, but in the episode she just makes a disgusted face.
 * Tori changes the channel to an episode of Hungry Girl. Hungry Girl is hosted by Lisa Lillien (Dan Schneider's wife).
 * Tori didn't get her drivers license because she did not see the old lady in the wheel chair. This is a reference to Drake & Josh, where Drake almost ran over an old lady in a wheel chair, and did not get his license due to that. Although Tori actually hit the old lady, while Drake missed, and is later chased by the old lady.
 * This is the episode shown in the Season 3 opening credits when Tori, Cat, and Jade get sprayed with water.

 * During the fight right before André throws Robbie on the ground you can here André say, "look out, look out."
 * This epsiode consists of the ships Catorade and Rodreck, each having their own plots and both the plots having their own twists.

Goofs
