Short summary

When Pierce learns that he and his Hawthorne wipes have become extremely popular, he decides to throw a big party... until his overbearing father, Cornelius Hawthorne shows up and puts the kibosh on the plans. Meanwhile, Troy finds himself being courted by Vice Dean Laybourne and his secretive Air Conditioning Repair Annex, as well as Greendale's resident janitor, Jerry.

Larry Cedar, who plays Pierce's father, Cornelius, in this episode, is actually 12 years younger than Chevy Chase, who plays Pierce.

The plot of this episode concern's Pierce's family corporation, the moist-towelette company called "Hawthorne Wipes." Chevy Chase, the actor who plays Hawthorne, in real life also has a family fortune derived from a personal sanitation product. Chase, whose real name is Cornelius Crane Chase, is the grandson of Cornelius Vanderbilt Crane, who was heir to the Crane Plumbing company, which manufactures and distributes plumbing fixtures and products (most notably, toilets for home and commercial markets) in North America. Pierce's father, who appears in the present for the first time in this episode, is also named Cornelius. (His father had appeared previously in a home movie circa 1956 played by a different actor.)

When Abed shows the group the "Pocket Full of Hawthornes" music video, the artist is called "Urbana Champaign." These are the two towns in which the University of Illinois is located.

While eulogizing his father, Pierce says "you're dead, and I'm not." Which may be a play on his famous weekend update line "I'm Chevy Chase and you're not."

Britta keeps referring to the "Edible Complex" instead of the "Oedipus Complex." In M*A*S*H: Private Charles Lamb (1974), Hawkeye Pierce defined the Edible Complex as "where a boy liked his mother's cooking better than eating out."

At the Gay Bash, Troy quotes Harrison Ford's character Han Solo from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Donald Glover (Troy) plays Lando In Solo: A Star Wars Story.

    Afthe the chaos episode I wouldn't expect anything better. but this episode was particularly too "try-very-hard" written and the storyline just doesn't flow naturally. I love community because its all about smart nonsense .. but I coudnt find that in this episode, it had a lot of glitches and the idea of Pirece's father and what happens at the end with his father involving Jeff just doesn't quite fit with the whole story of community. Im an university student and I enjoy more when the situations involve the community college itself and this episode for me is just way out of the blue. however I'll keep loving the show no matter what .. maybe next episode is way better
