Corrected entry: In this episode, James recalls he and Florida, when first getting married, couldn't afford to start having children until James got a job, then his politician friend got him a job at the stockyard, and then had JJ. This whole story is in total contrast with an earlier episode in the series, in which James admitted the reason he married Florida is because she was already pregnant.

Question: According to the credits, the smallest of the three Satan Knights that come over to get JJ is nicknamed "Sweet Pea." However this name is never mentioned by anyone in this episode. The other two are mentioned (Mad Dog and Neck Bone). Why would the credits use a name not used?
Answer: Could have very well been that he did have a speaking part, but ended up on the cutting room floor, and they just didn't fix the credits.
Answer: He did have a speaking part many times throughout the episode, but gang name simply not used (just his real first name by Florida). James even referred to him in the start of the next episode by saying "Neck Bone and that other character."
Correction: This entry is incorrect. In an earlier episode when James stated he married Florida because she was pregnant, he was joking, not serious.
