Hi... um, well, everybody knows about... yesterday. Martin, I was awful. I said some things I didn't mean, just to hurt you. I don't expect forgiveness, but I truly am sorry. And if you're not in my life, I'll be the real loser. |

Trivia[]

- This episode marks the first appearances of all of the Knights of Destruction as well as Andrew Hornby, who was first mentioned in C is for Changes.
- Starting with this episode, Will says "quintessence" when transforming as she now knows the power's name. She is also last in the transformation sequence from this episode onward.
- When on the radio, Irma refered to herself as "Lair on the Air".
- At the end of the episode, Martin left Irma a note in her locker saying "You'll never be a loser.", meaning that he forgave her. The two continued to be good friends and she treated him noticeably better, especially whilst setting up the Vance Michael Justin concert in O is for Obedience.
- K-Ship was made possible by the bankruptcy of Heatherfield radio station KDRIP, which donated its equipment to the school. KDRIP was seen and heard in The Mudslugs, in which Will briefly took over its frequency. Whether this incident contributed to the station's bankruptcy is unknown.
