Real-World Reference

Explaining how a housecat knew so much television, Donut told Carl that the channel he always left running played the A-Team all day, and that she had soaked it all up.

Book 1, Chapter 13

Donut put that viewing to work in the goblin camp. Learning that the goblin she had charmed had no name of his own, she dubbed him B.A. and christened his two companions Face and Murdock after the show's commandos, and B.A. obediently led them to the engineers.

Book 1, Chapter 15

Bolting together the goblin-parts redoubt with Brandon, Imani, and the others, Donut declared it was just like something they'd do on The A-Team. When Chris, who rarely spoke, said he'd liked that show, she pressed him on whether he meant The A-Team or MacGyver.

Book 1, Chapter 26

Turning down the Artist Alley Mogul class card, Donut dismissed its target audience as the sort of nerds who drew pictures of cats dressed like the show's cast, invoking the A-Team a second time after naming her charmed goblins for it back on the first floor.
