Errors

• Why does the Cobra receptionist need to swipe a card to let the security guards out? Shouldn't they be able to open it themselves? From their side?

Items Of Note

• The Cobra base is in Springfield, as revealed next episode.
• Springfield is in Missouri.

Real World References

• The man in Cobra's promotional video gives an apple to a boy and girl, like the serpent tempting Adam and Eve. A fitting reflection to Cobra Industries' true objectives.
