**The employee' ID number, #333-4-591032, is a symbolic code for "EEE, a spider!"
*In ''Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise'', the sign says "Quality Control" instead of "Spider-Free Candy". This was reverted back in ''Rhythm Paradise Megamix''.
*According to debug notes found in the files of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' this game, [[Fork Lifter]], [[Cheer Readers]], [[Flock Step]], [[Double Date]] and [[Board Meeting]] would have its short mode variant added in that game but got cut for unknown reasons.
*This game has a similar rhythm to [[Monkey Watch]].
*In the American and European release, the paycheck has a dollar symbol on it. This change is reflected on the rhythm item.

Packing Pests
Welcome to quality control! Product goes in the box. Anything else--just knock it away. Let's get to work!
The player takes control of Employee #333-4-591032 who works in a candy factory. Beneath the player is a cardboard box. Using both hands, they must catch candy to drop them into the box and swat away the Treat Spiders thrown at them. When the cue "Double up!" (いくぜ!!!?, Ikuze!) is heard, the player must catch one piece of candy and smack two Treat Spiders in a row.
Perfect!/Ace!?: The player catches the candy, sorting it into the box. Treat Spiders are slapped away to the ground, and walk back offscreen.
Early!/Late!?: The player mistimes the catch or slap, causing the candy or Treat Spiders to fall straight down.
Miss...?: The candy flies past the player's arms, making them shudder. Treat Spiders that fly past making them shudder even harder. Slapping candy cause it to be knocked down. Grabbing spiders causes the player to shudder, and drop the spider.

You lost a lot of product there. You seemed scared of the spiders.

Performance Review
You lost a lot of product there. You seemed confused by the double-ups.
Eh. Passable.
Great candy catching! The double-ups were no problem for you!
I had an audition this week, Mom. They didn't say anything afterward, but I had a good feeling. Anyway, I'm still doing pretty well at the candy factory. Here's this week's bonus.
Employee #333-4-591032 bears a striking resemblance to the Munchy Monk. He slaps the spiders in a similar manner to when the monk slaps his arm, and the aside glance he gives when his face is shown is almost identical to the one at the end of Munchy Monk 2.
