Better Halves
When D.L. and Micah are looking at comic books at the kitchen table, one of them is Tales From Space. This is the same comic as the one held by Sherman Peabody, the farmer's son in Back to the Future, who mistakes the DeLorean for a spaceship when Marty first arrives in 1955.
Six Months Ago
Hiro attempts to phone Ando at work, and instead gets "himself" on the other end. Hanging up the phone, he exclaims, "Great-o Scott!", paraphrasing Doc Brown's memorable exclamation.
Godsend
Nathan meets Hiro in Isaac's apartment. During their conversation, Nathan says "Look I can't believe I'm about to say this... you, you... teleported here, back from the future?"
Notes
- The phrase "Great Scott" is a popular phrase used in many incantations; before Doc Brown said it in Back to the Future, it was notably used by Superman, C.S. Lewis, and many others.
