Trivia

  • The episode shares the exact same title as the webisode from the DC Super Hero Girls webseries, given that both episodes featured Supergirl. In addition, this is the second episode to feature Supergirl and DC Super Hero Girls episodes sharing the same episode names. The first was "For the Girl Who Has Everything" which in-turn was adapted from the Superman arc For the Man Who Has Everything.
  • A "bottle episode" refers to one that typically takes place in a limited number of locations, often simply a single room. These episodes will use minimal budget, while usually restricting the cast to only series regulars.
    • For Supergirl, the title references the bottle containing Evil Brainy's Earth.
  • The multiverse was confirmed on-screen (to the viewers) to still exist. However, it appears that the seperate Earths are now divided by something other than vibrational frequencies, as Brainy found no other Earths via the old method.
  • The Anti-Life equation is mentioned for the first time, hinting at the existence of Darkseid and the new gods.
    • Interestingly, Lex Luthor mentioned the Apocalypse which could be a reference to Darkseid's home planet, Apokolips.
