There are also a few other references from The Brady Bunch set. In one particular scene,  Vision is practicing changing diapers on a doll. The doll is actually Kitty Karry-All, one of Cindy favourite toys from The Brady Bunch TV show. In early episodes, one of the episodes is centred around this very doll going missing.
