Annotations
[1] The Hateocracy — Colonel Stinkmeaner's old crew of blind, elderly combatants.
The Hateocracy is a trio of elderly, blind martial artists who served as Stinkmeaner's crew during his youth. Their introduction continues the series' tradition of absurdly violent elderly characters that began with Colonel H. Stinkmeaner himself in Season 1. The episode title is a play on the Stinkmeaner franchise within the show's universe, treating the character's afterlife as a recurring saga.

[2] Bushido Brown is hired to protect the Freemans.
Bushido Brown is voiced by Michael Jai White, an actor and martial artist known for his role as Spawn in the 1997 film and for his work in martial arts cinema. The character is a parody of overconfident martial arts experts whose arrogance undermines their actual skill. Aries Spears and Charlie Murphy also guest star in this episode as Rufus Crabmiser and Ed Wuncler III, respectively.

The episode contains visual and dialogue references to 28 Weeks Later, Master of the Flying Guillotine (a 1976 martial arts film that heavily influenced American fight choreography), Naruto (the popular manga and anime series), Good Times, and Sanford and Son. The mix of martial arts cinema, anime, and classic sitcoms is characteristic of the show's eclectic reference style.
