  • George Stoyadinovich's Crosstime Traffic safehouse in Speedro could be accessed by the verbal command "Rosebud," the opening line of Citizen Kane. Liz Mendoza warned Stoyadinovich that it might not be a good idea to use a pop cultural reference from the years shared by this alternate and the home timeline, as her family's passwords had come from The Lord of the Rings, which turned out to be an extremely popular book in this world. Stoyadinovich initially dismissed the idea that Citizen Kane would be well known here; the movie was not based on a book, and people in the alternate did not have the technology to watch movies. Nevertheless, movie and TV references were not unknown, so he changed it to the safely post-break-point password of "Shaquille".

  • Announcer: And now it's time for "Bum Reviews" with Chester A. Bum. Tonight's review: "Citizen Kane." Chester: OH MY GOD, THIS IS THE WORST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! Why is it everybody says this is the greatest movie of all time? It's bullcrap! This. Movie. Blows. Monkeys! I mean, say what you want about early 1940's cinematography and how this film was a breakthrough in cinematic development. But for me, these low angle camera shots seemed to shine a certain kind of pretentiousness. And it's obvious this person's life is supposed to be parallel to that of William Randolph Hearst. Very subtle!
