ALL: Look at how much we've grown!
{Zoom out to reveal the girls falling through the air, with Arrow'd Guy at the bottom of the screen, mouth wide open as if to catch the girls.}
NARRATOR STRONG BAD: IT'S OVER!!
Easter Eggs
- As usual, clicking on the O in "It's over!" shows an egg, this one of Mrs. Commanderson introducing Thomas to the class.
- {A young Thomas stands next to Mrs. Commanderson wearing a cap, with two books piled next to him.}
- MRS. COMMANDERSON: Class, please welcome our new student. He's from foreign lands.
- {Cut to What's Her Face.}
- WHAT'S HER FACE: {thought bubble} I think I have a chance with this guy.
- Clicking on the exclamation point in "It's over!" displays Mrs. Commanderson with two of the Cheat Commandos.
- {Mrs. Commanderson stands with Fightgar and Gunhaver, who are saluting her. The normal Cheat Commandos song plays, but with the lyrics: "Mrs. Commanderson, she's some kind of bird-reptile, and she teaches Pre-K!"}
- MRS. COMMANDERSON: EERRAAAK!!!
Fun Facts
Explanations
- Tompkins's "swear" is the word "heck," which, along with "shut up" and "stupid," many young kids believe are counted as profanity.
Trivia
- In keeping with the theme of "returning from the dead", Cheerleader dies in the "past" and is somehow alive again in the present with the other girls.
Remarks
- There is no again option at the end of this issue.
- During the segment with the "Teeny Tiny" Girl Squad, the music is a tinkling bells version of the Teen Girl Squad theme. When the comic returns to the grown-up Teen Girl Squad, the music is the usual keyboard version.
- During the segment with the Teeny Tiny Girl Squad, the paper on which the characters are drawn is the large, dotted style of paper commonly used with small children as they learn to write. When the comic returns to the grown-up Teen Girl Squad, the paper is back to its normal college rule.
Goofs
- The flower on So and So's dress appears only in the introductions.
- When Mrs. Commanderson is fully on screen, the foot/claw that has The Ugly One in it is white paper style.
- On the closing screen, the contraction "it's" is misspelled as the possessive "its."
Inside References
- "I think I have a chance with this guy" is a reference to Teen Girl Squad Issue 2.
- What's Her Face can count to G.
Real-World References
- "Bill Bellamy" is an actor and former MTV veejay.
- The large man in a wrestling singlet resembles pro wrestler King Kong Bundy, whose finishing move was a splash.
- The fact that the Teen Girl Squad cast is presented in child form is a trend done by several cartoons, that pretty much started with Muppet Babies.
- The screeching noise Mrs. Commanderson makes sounds like the pterodactyl boss of the game Banjo-Tooie.
