The title is half of the phrase "Out of the frying pan and into the fire." It refers to escaping from a bad situation, only to end up in one that is worse.
Keanu's climatic line is a "Keanu-ization" of Gandalf's "Fly, you fools!" from The Lord of the Rings.
The final scene reuses the Kirkland courtiers' ambient, improvised dialogue from Episode 4, and elven courtiers' reactions from Episode 8. While this was because Episode 10 courtiers' reactions were accidentally skipped during recording, it adds to the effect that nothing ever changes in the court at Kirkland.
