Cultural references[edit]

  • The title of the episode is reference to the phrase "Friends with Benefits", which means two friends who have a sexual relationship without being emotionally involved.
  • The couch gag is a reference to the 2014 Disney short film, Feast.
  • Undercover C.E.O. is a parody of the television franchise series Undercover Boss.
"Club Meds" is at the school sign-ups, and is a reference to the well-known hotel chain Club Med

Continuity[edit]

Trivia[edit]

  • Doggie Heaven was previously claimed by Homer to be the place where Santa's Little Helper will go after death in "Dog of Death".
  • Harper's father mentions that Jambowski island was formerly Haiti.

Goofs[edit]

  • Lisa says she has to pedal backward to go forward on her bike, but in every past episode where she rides her bike, the pedals worked normally.
  • When Homer, Marge and Bart are preparing for the trip, Bart is flipping a flaming stick with a brown shirt. But when Lisa comes in, Bart's shirt turns blue.
  • Milhouse wouldn't be able to take Harper's bike to himself. The bike is equipped with a modern anti-theft device, so riding the bike would draw Chief Wiggum's attention and possibly get him arrested.
  • The squats Homer watches on TV show incorrect form: the knees should not extend past the toes.
