When the Bluff the Listener contestant said that they were from Indiana, Peter Sagal said that he said that she didn't see the listener when they taped in Bloomington, Indiana the prior week. The contestant said that they asked Peter a question during the Q&A session after the taping finished.

When Peter listed the teams that Jason Benetti had been announcers for, someone booed after the Detroit Tigers were mentioned. Jason said that they were saying "Luke". This is in reference to the audience chanting "Luke", which sounds like they are booing Luke Burbank. Of course, people could be booing as well not knowing the lore behind the "Luke" chant.

Joyelle Nicole Johnson answered her third Lightning Fill In The Blank question with "Pill". Peter Sagal responded with "Sure, what the hell" and gave Joyelle credit for her answer.

Aasif Mandvi initially chose "B" for the third Not My Job question. The audience started shouting out "C" and Aasif switched his answer to "C". "C" was the correct answer.

During Lightning Fill In The Blank, Alonzo Bodden mentioned that his mind was slightly pre-occupied by NCAA's March Madness. The third Lightning question that Shane Torres was about March Madness.

After Alzo Slade said that Joyelle Nicole Johnson answered five of her Lightning Fill In The Blank questions correct, Joyelle said, "That's the most I've ever gotten right, Peter!".

When Peter Sagal asked Alzo if Adam Burke did well enough to win, before Alzo could response, someone in the audience audibly said "No".

For the first Not My Job question, the audience yelled out what sounded like "C" but Olivia Munn couldn't distinguish if the audience were yelling "B" or "C". Olivia asked them to yell "Banana" for "B" or "Cat" for "C". The audience yelled out "Cat", though Olivia then said that it distinguishing between "Banana" and "Cat" from the stage was difficult. Olivia went with "C", which was the correct answer. The first and third Not My Job questions were about "Friends" and the second question was about "Neighbours".

When Negin Farsad asked how did Peter Grosz did, Bill Kurtis said, "Well, in my 12 years here, we've never had a three-way tie."
