The Simpson Family started to drive their car into the dust and collided with Don, who told them that he is okay and started to joke about a Puerto Rican guy trying to steal.[1]

Krusty visited Moe as he wanted a "Forget-Me-Shot" because he was trying to do a Don Rickles about Arabs, but it turned into a Mel Gibson about Mexicans.[2]
