Trivia

• Homer's x-ray clearly shows the crayon that reduces his intelligence first seen in HOMЯ.
• At the end of the episode when Homer drinks some Duffs to power himself up and rescue Marge is a reference to Popeye cartoons, where Popeye rescues his love by powering himself up with spinach.
• The name of this episode is a reference to the film Eyes Wide Shut.
• There is a float on the gay parade called "Stayin' In The Closet" with a man and a woman peering out. It is heavily implied that they are Patty Bouvier and Waylon Smithers. While Patty confirmed she was a lesbian in season 16's episode "There's Something About Marrying", there has been no official confirmation that Smithers is homosexual (though a running gag heavily implies it).
