Trivia

• A clip of this episode was posted on Vimeo the day before it aired.
• This is the first episode in 2 years since "Operation Dinkleberg" that is not a 30-minute special.
• As in the episode, He Poofs He Scores, Timmy's friends don't speak except when they're reciting the group creed, in this case the Squirrel Scout's creed.
• This is the first episode in Season 9 where Denzel Crocker does not appear in at any moment.
• Cosmo mentioned the fairies' immortality before Mr. Turner busted in and almost "killed" them.
• The Squirrely Scout Credo is different in this episode than in Squirrely Puffs.
• Sparky ate meatloaf thinking it was dog food before Timmy told them that it was meatloaf. He then says that he took a bullet for Timmy.
• Innuendo: Mr. Turner states that if he takes a group of boys to the theater in his troop leader uniform, he would be arrested, suggesting that he meant he would get mistaken for a pedophile.
• This marks the finale appearance of Elmer in the series and his first appearance since Dad Overboard.

Allusions

• Titanic - The running gag of talking about hitting an iceberg and sinking is a reference to when the Titanic hits an iceberg and sinks.

Running Gags

• People talking about hitting an iceberg and sinking.
• Cosmo getting phrases wrong.
• Sparky playing music, putting on sunglasses, and driving the bus.
• Hamburgers causing people to be attacked by bears.

Goofs

• During the Squirrely Scout Credo, the captions display the second E in TREES as an S, as in TRESS (which means a piece of hair). The plural of tress is tresses, which means We climb up tress. This doesn't make sense. This entire goof only occurred in the first airing and was corrected in subsequent airings.
• There's a goof in the DIRECTV Guide. It says Dinkelscouts and switched up the E and L on Dinkle.
• When Timmy says "That was me lose" the eyes of his squirrel hat are bold lined.
• When Timmy is reading the poster for Faultline National Park, he refers to it as Faultline State Park and recites a phrase that wasn't on the poster when Timmy's dad showed it to him.

Quotes

Cosmo: Oh Timmy, you just need to relax and take in the fresh air.

(he picks up a rabbit and sniffs it)

Cosmo: Oh yuck, I need a fresher hare, this one smells like dirt and carrots.

(The rabbit gets angry and kicks him)

Cosmo: I am starting to hate camping.

Timmy: Wanda, I think I was wrong about making Mr. Dinkleberg the scout leader, it broke my dad's heart. I wish.

Sheldon Dinkleberg: Okay kids, I set up your campsite.

Wanda: You wish what, Timmy?

Timmy: I wish I was first in line for the Ferris wheel! YAAAAAAYYY!

---

Mr. Turner: Check out the park we are going to!

Timmy: (reading the poster) Faultline State Park: If you have a bad time, it's not our fault, unless there's another earthquake. Dad, this sounds dangerous!

---

Mr. Turner: I feel terrible. I've let Timmy down, and fire ants are on this stump. I hope I don't start hallucinating from sadness and fire ant venom.

(Sparky pulls up with the bus)

Mr. Turner: Ooh, a dog driving a bus! Nothing weird there.

Sparky: Hey, Timmy's dad.

Mr. Turner: A talking dog! Now I know I'm hallucinating. The venom has gone straight from my butt to my brain!

Sparky: Timmy sent me. He's worried about you.

Mr. Turner: Oh, Timmy. He doesn't need me, thinking of my imagination. He's having the time of his life with Dinkleberg.

Timmy: AHH, HELP! Dad, SAVE ME!

Mr. Turner: Ooh! Timmy's in trouble. I'd rescue him, but I would only mess it up. Dinkleberg can save him.

Sheldon Dinkleberg: Ahh! I can't save him!

Sparky: You can do it, Timmy's dad. You're Timmy's dad!

Mr. Turner: That kind of wisdom is hard to argue with! Come on, dog who isn't here! Drive me back to camp.

---

Kid: A dog hijacked our bus!

Dinkleberg: That's okay, I brought jetpacks!

---

Sparky: Hey Timmy.

Timmy: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH, DON'T EAT ME!

Sparky: I would never eat you, Timmy. Besides, I just ate the dog food your mom made for dinner.

Timmy: That was meatloaf.

Sparky: Oooh. Then I took a bullet for you there.

---

(Cosmo, Wanda, and Poof appear)

Timmy: AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Wanda: Sport, why are you so jumpy?

Timmy: Because I'm going to a camping trip with my Squirrely Scout troop and my dad is the troop leader!

(Everybody except Sparky screams)

Sparky: What's wrong with your dad?

Timmy: Every time we go on a camping trip, my dad puts us in terrible danger!
