    • The droid smugglers seen in the opening are members of the Vanguard Axis, a crime syndicate made up of deadly droids.
    • Gungi first appeared in the fifth season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, one of several younglings sent to find a kyber crystal and build their first lightsabers; it's a rite of passage called the Gathering, and one of the final challenges before becoming a Padawan.
    • As a Jedi, Gungi was brought to the Jedi Temple for training at a young age and is unfamiliar with his tribe or other Wookiee traditions. In this episode, we see the young Jedi begin to learn the ways of his people.
    • Wrecker says it's "been a while since we've been to Kashyyyk," a reference to an unfinished arc of Star Wars: The Clone Wars also penned by the writer of this episode, Matt Michnovetz. That Clone Wars arc featured several of the same elements, including the netcasters, mylayas, and Trandoshans.
    • Early ideas for this episode included use of the wyyyschokk spider, recently seen in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. But as the story developed, it was decided to go with the slightly less fearsome netcaster, originally meant to appear in Star Wars: The Clone Wars. The netcaster design is based off the kinrath spider from the Knights of the Old Republic video game.
    • Babwa Venomor, the name of the Trandoshan commander, originated from George Lucas during the development of the Kashyyyk arc of Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
    • This episode shows the Empire's early occupation of Kashyyyk, which would continue until the regime's fall almost 25 years later.
