Quotes and trivia

The episode title is a reference to the novel Lord of the Flies.
In reference to Hearst's guest appearance, creator Rob Thomas said, "She is playing a character close to herself. She's playing the granddaughter of Hearst College's [founder], who in our world is a railroad baron rather than a publishing baron. It'll be similar, but she is not literally playing Patty Hearst."
The wheelchair-bound Budd having a servant named Brandt is a reference to The Big Lebowski.
The character Budd Rose is a reference to Rosebud from the movie Citizen Kane, which was based on the life of William Randolph Hearst.
Patty Hearst's charcter's name is Selma. This is most likely a reference to the Simpsons characters Patty and Selma, Marge's twin sisters.
