The only difference in this episode is no use of a calculator, and the Special Mission Addition song is used instead of the actual Addition song.
Also, this is the only Special Missions episode to have a STEM song.
This episode was the last to air before a 6 month hiatus.
Like Monster Machine Christmas and the three previous Special Mission themed episodes, this episode also has a narrator.
This is the third Blaze and the Monster Machines episode of Nickelodeon's "The Fast and the Furriest Month", which includes new PAW Patrol and Blaze and the Monster Machines episodes every Friday throughout April.
This episode was the third episode to be played during the Special Mission Blaze marathon.
But, we don't know if these set of three episodes could be part of one whole entirely new episode, but they're all bunched up together.
Crusher and Pickle only had two lines in this episode, because The Pillow Pirate takes Crusher's role as the antagonist.
This is probably their smallest role for Crusher and Pickle yet.
This is the fourth time Blaze becomes Special Mission Blaze. He previously became Special Mission Blaze in The Yucky Ducky, where he tried to stop the Yucky Ducky from gross-ifying the world.
When the Pillow Pirate was launching cannonballs from his pirate ship, the cannonballs don’t cause holes in the road, but in The Flying Contest Crusher launched a cannonball so far, it caused a giant hole in the road.
This is the ninth time where someone other than Blaze read the title card, this time, it was the Pillow Pirate himself.
This the third episode to take place during night-time.
The first being The Midnight Mile, when Blaze and his friends took place in a race at night, and Special Mission Blaze, when Blaze set out to try and stop the Toothbrush Taker.
Blaze's pillow has his flame printed onto his pillow.
AJ and Gabby are both seen with their helmets off in the sleepover, at the end of the episode.
At the sleepover, a screen is displaying the Boingies, from The Boingies!.
Blaze, AJ, Gabby, Crusher, Pickle, and the Pillow Pirate, are all seen falling asleep at the last few seconds of the episode.
Before the Pillow Pirate blocks the tunnel's exit with anchors, his ship wouldn't have been able to support the weight of the many anchors as the ship flies into the air.
