When Don E. (Bryce Hodgson) brings the gunshot Drake (Greg Finley) to the funeral home, Blaine (David Anders) says, "I'm a brain dealer, not a doctor," this is a play on Bones - Dr. McCoy - from the original Star Trek (1966) series and the movie reboot, where Bones tells Captian Kirk, "Dammit, Jim, I'm a doctor, not a botanist!" Or some other profession based on their current plight.
One of the chapter titles is titled "One Tree Kill", likely a reference to the popular CW show One Tree Hill (2003), which Robert Buckley (Major Lilywhite) played a series regular, Clay Evans, in the later seasons.
