The episode's title is a reference to the ruby slippers worn by Dorothy Gale in the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz, which is the film adaptation of L. Frank Baum's The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. In Baum's original novel, Dorothy wears silver shoes, but they were changed to ruby slippers for the film.

Ruby slippers are mentioned by Neal in the Season Three episode "Quite a Common Fairy," when he is looking for a way to travel to Neverland. However, they do not appear on the show. Instead, the silver slippers are introduced in the Season Three episode "It's Not Easy Being Green."

In the episode, "There's No Place Like Home", there's reference to the novel where Dorothy tells the Scarecrow, "No matter how dreary and gray our homes are, we people of flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There is no place like home."
