## Trivia

* This is the first episode to feature a repeated 4x4.
* This is the second and last episode to have a 5x5 with 10 squares. The first one was Episode 109.
* This is the first episode to have a puzzle edited out, specifically the 40-point puzzle.
* The wacky music played on Eryn's turn before she was eliminated. This is also the first episode with wacky music to air.
* This is the first episode since Episode 114 to have Jeff's silly headline not edited out.
* According to Athena, she was told not to talk about the plant incident but instead about having purple sunscreen in her shoes, since the crew thought the plant story was "less cool". After she "spaced out on set", they kept the plant story intact.
* It was also mentioned by Athena that she was only allowed to have the bike, not the camera. Had she won the trip she wouldn’t have gotten the bike because she was only allowed to get 1 prize.

## Goofs

* In Level 2, after Danny answers question 3, an image of his answer doesn't appear at the bottom of the screen.
