## Trivia

* Dr. Fist joins The Guys in this episode.
* Apparently, Junior packs Rallo's lunches for him.
* Junior experiments with molecular gastronomy.
* Choni expands her business to a food truck called "Choni's Fiesta Expressta".
* Rallo has a criminal cousin named Chirag.
* Choni claims that this takes place five months before Cinco De Mayo. That would mean that this episode takes place in December. This episode aired on December 4th, 2011, meaning that the episode is taking place at the same time it's airing.
	+ Rallo additionally states that his currently redeemed cousin, Chirag Tubbs will be back to his old ways by Christmas. This means that Rallo doesn't believe that he'll last any more than three weeks. Exactly three weeks after this episode, it would be Christmas. That's when the episode "'Tis the Cleveland to be Sorry" took place and aired.
