- Bertram reveals that the reason why he became evil and came with the idea of destroying humanity was because of the lack of respect that he had.

Goofs[]
- Future Jessie said she was visiting present day from 60 years into the future, which was 2072. However, the episode aired in 2013 so it should have been 59 years into the future. However, it is likely that the episode was filmed or set in 2012, or they rounded the amount of years up to 60.
