• In the scene where Nicky Flippers, played by David Ogden Stiers, needs to understand what Twitchy the squirrel is saying, he uses a tape recorder to slow down Twitchy's speech so that he can find out what Twitchy is saying and save the day. This is a reference to A Circle of Children (1977) (TV). In that movie, a teacher named, Dan Franklin, also played by Stiers, needs to understand what a young boy is saying and uses a tape recorder to slow down the boys speech so that he can find out what the boy is saying and save the day. This method (recording and playing back in slow motion) was also used in Dick Tracy (1990) to understand what "Mumbles" (played by Dustin Hoffman) is saying.
