References/Trivia


Cultural references

  • The title of this episode is a play on the movie about Arnold Schwarzenegger's campaign for California governor called "See Arnold Run".
  • The boys stealing The Scream is a reference to one of The Scream paintings being stolen from the Munch Museum in 2004.
  • 2003 California recall election: the Springfield mayoral recall election is an obvious parody of the 2003 California recall election, which saw incumbent governor Gray Davis ousted and replaced by Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger.
  • The Station nightclub fire: a pyrotechnics show, which caps Homer's "Safety Salamander" presentation at school, starts the stage curtains on fire, under similar circumstances as the deadly 2003 fire before a Great White concert at The Station nightclub in West Warwick, Rhode Island. Everyone is able to escape the Springfield Elementary School fire, however.
  • Homer's line – "This looks like a job for a father trying to win back his daughter's love!" is a play on Superman's signature phrase, "This looks like a job for Superman!"
  • Rainier Wolfcastle's line about his being a son of a Nazi is based on research done where Arnold Shwartzenagger's father is revealed to have been an SS trooper in Nazi-era Austria.
  • Mayor Quimby's line to the plane pilots while hijacking it ("Take this plane wherever girls are going wild") is a reference to the reality show "Girls Gone Wild".
