    • Trivia
      When Bart, Milhouse, Martin, and Nelson drive through Branson, they pass a marquee that reads "Lurleen Lumpkin and Pip Diddle Tonight." Lurleen Lumpkin was the woman Homer became a manger for when he discovered her in a bar in Colonel Homer (1992).
    • Goofs
      When Homer and Lisa are playing in the radiation suits, as the chairs are spinning, Homer is laughing, but his mouth isn't moving.
    • Quotes

      [Lisa tells Homer about Bart's problem after making him promise not to get mad]

      Lisa: [rapidly] Bart rented a car with a phony driver's license and drove Milhouse, Martin, and Nelson to a wig outlet in Knoxville and the car got crushed and they're out of money and they can't get home and Bart's working as a courier and just came back from Hong Kong!

      [Homer's face turns pink, but his voice is eerily calm]

      Homer: Yes, that's a real pickle. Would you excuse me for a moment?

      [He puts on a radiation suit hood and screams out indistinguishable profanities, fogging the glass of the faceplate. When he takes the hood off, he is eerily calm again]

      Homer: All right, I have thought this through. I will send Bart the money to fly home. Then I will murder him.
