Trivia

  • The title may be a reference to Shakespeare's "The Beast with Two Backs". On "Spanish Fry", the sex shop in which Fry, Bender and Leela enter is called "The Beast with Two Bucks", again, this might also be a reference.
  • A sneak peek will be included in a two disc DVD of Bender's Big Score exclusive to Best Buy.
