Early was previously looking for Confederate flag themed boogieboards, which they had last week, prior to being banned. Rusty also assumed the staff of Ballmart has some in the back. Granny mentioned that they have trouble keeping them on the shelves.

  • Due to the banning of the Confederate Flag, Early is never shopping in Ballmart for food, clothes, and any "non-flag" related items. Early then tells Rusty and Granny, due to them not being wanted. to take themselves to aisle three for some marshmallows and diet soda for dinner.
  • The onesie for babies that Boyd (which along with a few other items is from a box saying "Dixie Misc" which is from Korea) shows Early which he later wears, has the words "Li'l Rebel" on it, the "Li'l" part sounds like the character Lil Cuyler who doesn't appear in Season 10.
