Development Notes
Unlike most Rusl & Friends projects that take absolutely way too long to make, this episode was conceived, planned, and executed in a little under a month. It was written by SlowkingCole, Kurohei, and Linkzeldi in one sitting on June 2, with one joke being written the day before. Mild revisions were made on June 3 and minor adjustments were made as actors recorded their roles. Editing started as early as June 3, but most of the editing took place after June 18 with a lot being done specifically on June 27.

Post-Credits
The guard from the beginning of the episode exposits the typical abridged series disclaimer in a nonplussed fashion after noticing the viewer hasn't left.

Reception
Nobody knooooooows, but it has no dislikes so far, so that's cool.
