* Unlike Yukiko's first and third appearance, she was undisguised in this case, just like her second appearance.
 
* In this case, Eri referred to Yukiko as a "Teitan Princess, who I was Couldn't beat," and Yukiko called her "The Conservative Mature Queen.
 
* This is the case that revealed that the two mothers have not seen each other for ten years, which was before Kogoro and Eri have split up. Which would probably explain why Conan/Shinichi did not recognize Eri when he first saw her in [[Coffee Shop Murder Case]], since he and Ran were really 7 years old, when her parents split.
 
* This is the case that revealed that Yukiko Kudo, Eri Kisaki, and Kogoro Mouri all attended Teitan High School, and Eri and Yukiko competed in a Miss Teitan High School Beauty Pageant which shook the school, and they cancelled the competition to end the chaos, so neither one actually won or lost.

** With luck, Ran may not latch onto the discrepancy between this episode and 237 episodes ago.
 
* This is one of the first cases that make Conan feel useless, at least at the start due to how highly competent both of their mothers are at handling the case, leaving practically nothing for him to do in regards to investigating the crime.
 
* Yukiko recognized the gardener, Kozo Doi, came from the Kochi Prefecture, and told him that she was from Takajou City, which appears to possibly be a fictitious city, although it did cause Kozo to reveal that he is from Kami City, which is apparently not too far from Takajou City, since he obviously heard of it. Yukiko is an actress, and she helped him by getting him to talk, which he was not doing, until he believed that she was from the same prefecture as himself.
 
* Conan also revealed that Yukiko once played a part that spoke with a Tosa Accent, and she learned it at that time.
 
* This is the first case with Yukiko Kudo, that Yusaku is only in the background.
 
* Yukiko had to have been really watching Conan, because when he was just beginning to develop, what will be called his "Prankster Smile," in the future,
 
and immediately hit him, like Kogoro does, and guessed that he figured it out. The smile was not even half formed at the time, when she hit him on the head, and for the most part, it was still at a mostly imperceptible.
 
** This case also makes Yukiko the first person to catch the prankster smile that Conan frequently shows when he figured out the case or trick, and to make it harder to mention, is it never got to be actually formed due to it's emergence being halted at the offset.
 
* When Conan made a reference to her appearing on stage as the Night Baroness, he is referring to what certain circles call Yukiko, since she is the wife to the creator of the Night Baron Books, as revealed in [[Shinichi Kudo's New York Case]].
 
* This is the first case that Conan uses a lip syncing Yukiko to solve his case.
