Timeline
After Blaze of Glory
Before Piggy 500 and Tool Duel

Trivia[]

  • Gabby, Stripes, Darington and Zeg don't appear in this episode.
  • Going by production order, this is the seventeenth episode of the first season.
  • Despite this episode aired in 2015, it was produced in 2014 according to the end credits.
  • The last hearing of Let's Go until The Chicken Circus!.
  • This is the first episode that Blaze and Crusher don't interact or see each other at all.
  • Rainy conditions are shown for the first time.
  • Even though Crusher accidentally causes the earthquake which interferes with Blaze, they never actually see each other throughout the episode.
  • This is the first time someone mistaken their tummy rumbling for the ground shaking; in that case, it's Starla.
  • The shot of Blaze telling Starla "After you" is an edited shot from The Team Truck Challenge.
  • This is the second time Starla's barn is shown after Truckball Team-Up
  • This is the only episode to date where Crusher and Pickle's subplot show up as four scenes instead of three, and the only episode where it happens before the travel song.
  • This is the fourth and final time to date Starla is heard singing after Blaze of Glory, The Driving Force and Truck Rangers.
  • This is the first time that Crusher's subplot intersects with the main story. In this case, the giant crack on the rock caused by him accidentally failing to use the lasso ends up becoming part of Blaze and Starla's adventure.
    • This is also the second (and final) Season 1 episode with subplots.
  • This is the final episode where Blaze says "Say it with me!" or variations thereof following the "Let's Blaze!" prompt; for the rest of the series he no longer says that.

Running Gags[]

  • Blaze and Starla saying “Yee-haw!” before they lasso.
  • Crusher trying to lasso, but forgets the lasso phrase and messes up.
  • The little cow showing her attachment with Blaze.

Allusions[]

Goofs[]

  • Despite the appearance of rain for the first time in the series, Blaze does not have a roof, therefore the rain would've caused a short circuit to his interior. The umbrella did not help as it is not covering him.
  • When Blaze and Starla use their lassos to save the cows, the raft somehow fixes itself when both pieces stick together. The other half would've floated away if they did this without fastening it first.
  • Starla says you have to say "yee-haw" when about to lasso. But there are times in the episode where she and Blaze don't say "yee-haw" before lassoing, such as when they rescue the cows on the runaway half of the raft and when Blaze saves the little cow from the earthquake.
  • Cows cannot fit on rafts in real-life, as it would not hold up their weight. Although they may only do in the series.
  • At the beginning, Blaze claims he never lassoed before, but he was seen lassoing in Truckball Team-Up. Although it suggests that this might've taken place before that.
  • When Blaze says “After you,” Starla is much smaller than normal.
