Title

An agenda is a "list of the matters to be discussed at a meeting". The Justice League convenes to discuss the recruitment of a new member. Lex Luthor also arranges a meeting with Superboy to discuss his origins. The term agenda can also be used to describe an objective or set of goals, or a plan to implement them (as in the phrase hidden agenda). Dubbilex has an agenda to free the genomorphs, and Luthor uses Superboy as part of his agenda to locate Match as well as part of a longer-term agenda to subvert Superboy's loyalties.

In the comics, the organization responsible for creating Match is called "The Agenda", and Amanda Spence is one of its members.

  • This episode aired in Brazil on March 13.[4]
  • Match burns the backwards S in his chest; this is a reference to Superboy-Prime. The mirrored S is also common among Bizarro versions of Superman.
  • Guardian states that he is the uncle of Red Arrow, as he was in the comics. Crispin Freeman plays both roles.
  • Lex Luthor is able to incapacitate Superboy with the trigger phrase "Red Sun". This is a reference to Krypton's sun, Rao, and Superman's weakness to red-sunlight.

Goofs

Cultural references

  • Dubbilex says "I have a dream that one day...", which resonates the words of Martin Luther King.
  • Lex Luthor contacts Superboy via a high-frequency signal, stating, "With Superman off-world, only one thing alive with less than four legs can hear this frequency, Superboy, and that's you." In Superman (1978), Lex Luthor contacts Superman in a similar manner and says roughly the same thing.
  • The spell Zatanna used to season the turkey is "parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme", the refrain from the traditional English ballad Scarborough Fair.
