This episode appears to be based on the following cases/incidents:
- The 2023 accidental death of Matthew Perry. On October 28, 2023, Perry was found unresponsive in a hot tub at his home in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles. He was pronounced dead at 4:17 pm the same day. He was 54 years old. His death was later revealed to be due to an overdose of ketamine and drowning. In Perry's case, the arrest of five people, including medical doctors, Perry's assistant, and an alleged dealer US prosecutors have described as the "Ketamine Queen", has shed light on an alleged vast ketamine-dealing underground network, cover-up attempts, and another death, too. Several characters in this episode appear to represent the aforementioned individuals.
- The increase in controversial "ketamine clinics".
