Allusions and References
- Dale refers to Hank as "Tokyo Rose". This was the name given to all female radio broadcasters during World War II who would air Japanese propaganda. Despite studies concluding that the broadcasts were innocuous, when American citizen Iva Toguri returned to the U.S., controversy was stirred to start another investigation that led her to be charged with treason. Although after revelations of false testimonies, she was pardoned by President Ford.
