- This was the first of four episodes where a team of Blue Barracudas competed against a team of Orange Iguanas in the Temple Games, the rarest combination of teams in the original series.
- Of the four episodes, this is the only one where a team of Blue Barracudas defeated a team of Orange Iguanas in order to compete in the Temple Run.
- This is the first episode where a team of Blue Barracudas goes to Olmec's Temple after winning 1½ pendants in the Temple Games.
- This is the first of two episodes where a team of Blue Barracudas attempted to retrieve an artifact placed in the Bottom Corner of Olmec's Temple. The second was The Pearl Necklace of Gwalior.
- When Kirk was giving the rules for the Temple Run, Olmec's theme played instead of the main theme.
- This is the first episode where a Temple Guard is encountered in the top corner room (the room that featured the Room of Three Torches, the Pirate's Cove, the Viper's Nest, the Lightning Room, and the Room of the Secret Password). This would be only the encounter in that room in the series until The War Fan of the 47 Rōnin.
- With 18 seconds remaining when Jessica met the third guard, this Temple Run would be the slowest loss as a result of a Triple Seizure in Season 1. This would stay the slowest loss in the series until The Lost Taj Mahal Turban of Aurangzeb beat it out with 13 seconds remaining.
- This is the first of two episodes where a team of Blue Barracudas lost the Temple Run as a result of a Triple Seizure. The second is The Mummified Hand of the Egyptian King. Coincidentally, both runs ended in the top corner room.
- The Red Jaguars and the Purple Parrots later appeared in The Lucky Pot-Bellied Pig of Amelia Earhart, wearing the same team colors.
