Trivia
- Homer is shown shaving off his stubble, which grows back moments later.
Errors
- When Homer leaves to 'do some serious thinking' he drives away from the house in the orange station wagon (Marge's car), but arrives at the farmhouse in his pink sedan.
- When Homer and Marge are in the car, between scenes, the windscreen goes missing. It becomes noticeable when the mirror appears and disappears, and Abe's head manages to pop out when he and Homer argue over the getaway music.
- In this episode, both Homer and Grampa set fire to the Simpson farm, and it burns to the ground. The later episode "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)" creates a plot hole, as the Simpsons temporarily move to the Simpson farm. It could have been rebuilt.
- Homer's shadow in front of the TV is still there even after 30 years. He could have been in the same position or it may just have been put there to 'show' how much time Homer spends watching TV.
Cultural references
- Bart's blackboard line, "My homework was not stolen by a one-armed man," is a reference to The Fugitive.
- Homer accidentally grabs a nutty photography book by Robert Mapplethorpe at the bookstore.
- Grampa mentions Lake Flaccid which is an obvious reference to Lake Placid
- Lisa references Occam's Razor, a real 14th century theory.
- Milhouse's line "We're through the looking-glass here, people" is from Oliver Stone's movie JFK.
- Professor Frink's transformation into a suave man with a deep voice is a reference to Jerry Lewis transforming into Buddy Love in The Nutty Professor.
- Abe Simpson is mostly seen dressed as a quintessential Southern Colonel, an image most associated with Colonel Sanders, the founder of Kentucky Fried Chicken.
