After watching the first movie, Steve and Roger watch the second Airplane movie, and exclaim that it's even better than the first one as they laugh about the scene with Sonny Bono and the bomb.

When Michael and Jo are in the private jet, Jo says "Surely you don't want to do that honey", and Michael replies, "Surely I would, and don't call me honey" which is a mix up of the joke from Airplane of "don't call me Shirley."
