This is not good. The butterfly effect from one small change in the timeline is too unpredictable.

Notes

The episode is almost totally set on Zari's possible future in the year 2023.
Gus-Gus changing the Bud Stuy sitcom temporarily changes Behrad's history and personality. However, the Legends avert these changes and revert Behrad to his original self.
It is implied that Bud Stuy is the inspiration for the Fate+ Dimension's "Ultimate Buds" sitcom from "The One Where We're Trapped On TV".
- Nate Heywood becoming a guest star in Bud Stuy is also a reference to his role in "Ultimate Buds".

Trivia

"Gus-Gus" is physically inspired by the Gremlins, the monster creatures from the namesake 1984 movie.
Behrad mentions the streaming service "Bestflix" from his future which is obviously a pun on the real-life Netflix.
