Allusions[]
- The title of this episode is taken from Little Shop of Horrors, which is a 1960 dark comedy feature film directed by Roger Corman with a script written by Charles B. Griffith. It was adapted into a rock musical in 1982 with music by Alan Menkin.
- Pandora's box is an item featured in Greek mythology, though it is classically portrayed as a jar, not a box. Pandora received the jar from Zeus, who sought to use her as his instrument of revenge against Prometheus who stole fire from the Gods. When Pandora opened the jar, she released all of the evils of the world out into the open. The phrase "Pandora's box" has since become an idiom to describe a circumstance the results in sweeping, catastrophic results.
- Pandora's box bears a striking resemblance to the Lemarchand puzzle box as seen in the Hellraiser film series. In the mythology of the films, only one who expresses the deepest desire to experience sensations beyond mortal ken can hope to solve the puzzle, but doing so opens a portal to Hell, thereby summoning the demonic Cenobites.

- Leo Wyatt: I think you better orb upstairs before Mommy turns you into a toad.
