It was revealed that the narrations were Monkey talking, but when Mandark walked past him, his mouth was not seen moving and the narrator was heard speaking.
The scene where Dexter says "Wait, that is not even funny" was a direct jab at the backslash Chris Savino received for his work on the last two seasons of Dexter's Laboratory.
