When Tommy is found in a state of semi-undress, Fin asks the EMTs, "Which one of you pulled the Rockefeller and yanked his pants up?" This sounds like a reference to the circumstances surrounding the 1979 death of former New York State Governor and Vice President Nelson Rockefeller. Rockefeller died in a midtown-Manhattan townhouse and was in the company of a young woman at the time.
