Quotes[]

Robotboy: You out, Lucy!

Donnie: Your girlfriend is outside Tommy: Lola is not my girlfriend Donnie!
Donnie: Lola? I'm talking about GUS!

Constantine: Eh, what are those boss?
Kamikazi: Exploding robot bombs! The culmination of years of research, and millions of dollars!

Trivia[]

Despite being part of season 2, this episode was actually the 1st episode to be produced for the series.
The gag from Constantine Rising, "Lola's not my girlfriend" returns in this episode. When Donnie tells Tommy that his "Girlfriend" is outside (he is referring to Gus), Tommy says "Lola's not my girlfriend, Donnie!".
The episode title is a pun on the song Karma Chameleon from Culture Club.
Chupika, Gus's virtual pet from this episode is an anagram/spoonerism of Pikachu, the popular Pokémon from Nintendo's Pokémon series. Its appearance is also based on Tamagotchi, the popular Japanese hand-held virtual pet.
- Whenever Gus plays with Chupika, we can hear sound effects from the Atari 2600 version of Donkey Kong.
Digidude may also be a reference to Digimon.
When Kamikazi and Constantine loose their clothes while falling into the hay, it is revealed that Kamikazi wears and owns a pair of boxershorts with Robotboy's head printed on them. As this episode was aired before Knockoffs and Robotboy's Fifteen Minutes, it's safe to assume they were custom made specifically for him.

Goofs[]

When Kamikazi and Constantine are falling into the hay, they loose their clothes from the speed of the fall, but if you look closely - just as they hit it their clothes come back.
When Constantine bandages Kamikazi's foot, Kamikazi is shown bald. In the next shot he got his hair back.
When Dr. Kamikazi dumps Tommy out of the air, Tommy is falling to the spikes face-down. When Robotboy saves him just in time, he is falling the other way round.
Gus was seen standing next to Tommy when Ro was battling the gym-teacher clone in the gymnasium. But when he's about to attack Ro with a crowbar, Gus unintentionally hits him with a door, he just came through with a note, even though he was never shown actually leaving. Even if we had seen Gus leave, him getting a note in that short amount of time should have been impossible, as well.
Gus had earlier accidentally knocked off Tommy's watch with a dodgeball, but it's shown back on his wrist after Ro's batteries get knocked out. (It is possible that sometime in between these events, Tommy had picked up his watch and put it back on.)
In the last scene, when Gus walks into Tommy's bedroom, Tommy turns his head to him. His hair waves with his head, but a piece of it stays floating over the rest. It's most likely a mistake in drawing.
