Dream-Eaters (TV story)

References

In Darius' dream of being surrounded by clowns whilst being locked in Mariah, he pleads for her to let him out. She says, "I'm sorry Darius but I can't do that", a reference to Hal 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey, "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that".
In the dream world, K9 encounters a sheep, which his scanner verifies as being "electric". This is a nod to the Phillip K. Dick novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
