Cultural References

- Bart's plan to have the Shelbyvillians tow Ned's RV into the impound lot is reminiscent of the Trojan Horse strategy by which the Greeks defeated Troy in the Trojan War. In fact, when sneaking out of the RV, Homer stated, "I bet no one else in history has thought of something this clever!".
Trivia
