Primitive science fiction: Eusa's knowledge is sucked out of his head into a computer. Riddley's people don't seem to have any conception of intelligent machines, and in such a {{Ix|heads|head}}-centric culture, the idea of having a "No. 2 head" (as opposed to the other "[[A_45_19|main part]]" or "little head" that Eusa joked about earlier) would presumably be both fascinating and repellent.

-An "iron hat" made an earlier appearance in Hoban's 1974 children's book ''How Tom Beat Captain Najork and His Hired Sportsmen'', where such a hat (which only conveys sternness rather than providing any computer functions) is worn by Miss Fidget Wonkham-Strong.
