- There is a float on the gay parade called "Stayin' In The Closet" with a man and a woman peering out. Their faces are not seen, but they do speak, and thus seem to be Patty Bouvier and Waylon Smithers. Patty later confirmed she was a lesbian, in Season 16's episode "There's Something About Marrying". However, there has been no official confirmation that Smithers is homosexual, although a long-running gag strongly implies that he is.
Continuity
- Homer's X-Ray clearly shows the crayon that reduces his intelligence. It was first seen in "HOMЯ."
