Trivia
- The episode's title is a play on the term "swan song" and the Sisqó song "Thong Song", whose artist will appear in the episode.
- This episode uses the 2006 movie Night at the Museum as its background.
- This episode marks Maisie Richardson-Sellers final appearance in the role of Charlie as well as her last as a regular.
- The Hall of Villains in the History Museum is quite similar to The Flash Museum's Hall of Villains where most of The Flash's villains are put on display and also presents information about their history with The Flash just like in this episode there's minor information about the Encores and the Legends in the museum.
- The scene where Zari Tomaz disappeared and went right back inside of the Air Totem by appearing to look like she is being erased from existence is quite similar to what happened to Nora West-Allen in the Season 5 finale episode "Legacy" in which both of them had to disappeared due to timeline changes in which Zari went back inside of the Totem to save her brother Behrad from being killed by a timeline anomaly in which he was previously been killed by ARGUS agents in an erased future while Nora end up being erased from existence due to Barry sending Cicada's dagger into the Mirrorverse.
- Both instances took place in both season 5 finales for The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow respectively in which a female main character had to be erased from existence due to timeline changes.
