    • First episode made in 16:9 although introduced in 4:3 but in current airings it's 16:9.
    • A new dance rountine for the "Outside" song.
    • More vibrant coloring, such as Deema's hair being a very bright yellow rather than the usual dull yellow.

    • Clam is absent.
    • When characters talk, but there is no longer a slight echo effect.
    • The Nelvana Limited logo at the end, with additional animation by Pipeline Studios. (When it premiered, the WildBrain logo was seen.)
  • This was the 2nd time that Molly and Gil were vital to the episode's topic and plot, first being Happy Clam Day!
  • Since it was the first season 2 episode produced, the new animation was different:
    • Some of the guppies skin is orange tan instead of regular tan.
    • Goby and Molly's skin appear to be a lot browner.
    • Gil's hair is bluer than his natural hair color.
    • Mr. Grouper's skin seems to be tangerine than orange.
  • Gil sings the pop song, instead of Molly.
  • Gil's voice is noticeably more matured in this episode
  • This episode features the voice of Candi Milo.
  • Starting with this episode until The New Guppy, Nonny does all of the lunch jokes.
    Really.
  • When everyone is crossing over Buccaneer Bridge, they nervously watch their step as they cross the deep ravine, except Deema, she happily waves to the audience with no fear at all.
  • When Mr. Grouper tells everyone it's time to go outside, the Bubble Guppies are wearing pirate hats, but when they all line up, the pirate hats are gone.
  • This episode references' the Little Einsteins episode "Pirate's Treasure".
  • After the lunch joke when the camera is moving to Molly and Gil, Nonny and Oona have switched lunchboxes because nonny has oona's lunchbox and oona has nonny's lunchbox.

  • In the shop segment, the wheel looks like the Super Word Wheel from HQ Words.
  • The “switched lunchboxes” goof was a reference to the “Lets swap!” scene from Peppa Pig.
  • This is also the first episode where Molly swims from the left to introduce the show.
  • This is the 1st episode of Season 2 in production code order.
