Trivia[]
- It is revealed that the key piece to returning Shendu to his true form is through the Rat Talisman.
- The scene where Jackie water-skis without equipment is a reference to the movie Rumble In The Bronx where the main character (played by real-life Jackie Chan) performs the same move during a pursuit.
- Chow only appears in this episode when Gnomekop is taken to the Dark Hand's headquarters to be tricked into locating Section 13. He doesn't take part in any Dark Hand missions before retrieving the Rat Talisman or later in trying to find Section 13.
