    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Marge beats up her mugger it mirrors The Godfather when Sonny Corleone beats up his sister's boyfriend with the fire hydrant and the black rails.
    • Goofs
      During the competition right after the woman smashes the piano, she says "Support the arts!" There is no lip sync, though; her mouth simply opens.
    • Quotes

      Marge Simpson: [Stuck in the basement due to agoraphobia] What to do now? Too crazy to go outside; not crazy enough to have imaginary friends.

    • Connections
      Edited from Simpsonit: Flaming Moe's (1991)

    Negative portrayal of bodybuilding
    Rather than focussing on bodybuilding as a positive, sadly it paints a negative picture of steroid abuse.
