Angstrom leaves an evil Mark in the hands of the GDA
In an alternate reality, a mutated and vengefully embittered Angstrom arrives to an Earth where another evil Mark is placed in a reinforced metal shackle bond by the alternate GDA he asks Marks questions about his current predicament, (unaware that he is gaining information on how to defeat his own alternate selves once and for all). The GDA agents along with different versions of Cecil and Donald arrive to stop Angstrom, but he does not come for a fight, and merely leaves, leaving the Evil Mark hysterically demanding his presence to return.

Trivia[]
.png){kind=link}
Invincible right before "marrying" Queen Aquaria, Invincible #15.
- This title "In About Six Hours, I Lose My Virginity to a Fish" is a reference to a line spoken by Mark in Invincible Issue 15, right before he is about to "marry" Queen Aquaria.
- Queen Aquaria was first seen in "Who You Calling Ugly?" via cameo.
- The Atlantis story in the comics is entirely different: In the comics, Mark was supposed to get married Aquaria right away, and there was a comic exclusive character who was supposed to be the new Aquarus and liked Aquaria and proved his love to her during the fight with an Atlantean monster.
- Ironically Enough, Aquaria's actress also played a character in a series on netflix called Trollhunters, and her character happened to have dated a guy named Steve who was voiced by Steven Yeun.
- Mark, Amber, and William's middle names are revealed in this episode (being Sebastian, Justine, and Francis respectively)
- The Thugs from the series premiere were seen in Midnight City, albeit corpses. This confirmed that no one had tried to free the two following Darkwing leaving Midnight City, also Sam's Friend's lower half of his body is missing.
- Angstrom returns from his near death experience from the last episode, and now sports a cloak along with cybernetic enhancements.
- Two alternate female versions of Donald and Cecil seen at the end of the episode are credited as "Denise" and "Caitlin".
- It's also unknown if the Invincible seen at the end is the same one from the previous episode.
- The sign in the Pentagon says "Parking in Front" rather than "Parking in Rear" like the original universe.
- J.K. Simmons is credited as Omni-Man in the credits, but Nolan is not seen once in the episode.
- Before Debbie and Donald interact, he mentions the Mars file that Cecil requested, foreshadowing the Sequids returning which was shown during Shapesmith's fake origin.
