Didja Notice?

On page 1, the police officer pats down Professor Irving at the auto impound yard, saying, "You think you can waltz in here and steal a car?" and Irving responds, "Not exactly, sir, nor am I even capable of dancing in three-quarter time." The waltz is a type of ballroom dance, traditionally performed in triple (three-quarter) time.

On page 6, Joey tells Marty how he shoplifted a part from Western Auto for Biff's DeVille. Western Auto was an auto parts retailer in the U.S. from 1909-2003. There was a Western Auto store in Hill Valley in 1955 and apparently still existed in 1972. The shop was no longer in the old location by 1985.

In "Time Served" Part 1, Marty had to cover for himself by claiming to Biff that he was Calvin Klein's son. In the issue, he has to give his name and chooses "Kevin", making him Kevin Klein. Although the "Klein" is spelled differently, Marty is thinking of the actor Kevin Kline, who has been active in the field since 1972.

On page 7, one of the police officers says the hippies are probably so whacked out and hopped up they think they're in Wonderland. This makes the hippy driver refer to the officers' prey, Professor Irving, as the White Rabbit. These are both references to the 1865 novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the subsequent film and television adaptations.

On page 11, Joey finds a Robt. Burns cigar box wrapped with twine at Mrs. Brown-Ellsworth's home. Robert Burns (sometimes abbreviated Robt. Burns) is a real world brand of fine cigars.

On page 17, Doc refers to his anti-gravity device (previously seen in "Hard Time" Part 3) as an "inertial buoyancy displacement convector".
