Lisa then took the Zii back to the retirement castle and sets it up for Grampa and the other residents, who were confused by the technology at first, but soon warmed up to a game of virtual tennis.

Behind the Laughter
- The Zii is a parody of the Nintendo Wii and uses exactly the same sounds as the Wii.
- Zii Sports is a parody of Wii Sports and the tennis game they are playing is a parody of the tennis game on Wii Sports.
- In the episode Waverly Hills 9-0-2-1-D'oh, when Marge cleans up Homer's apartment, he asks what happened to his Wii, not intended to use the term Zii.
- In The Simpsons Game, God's version of the Zii is called the Hii.
