Trivia[edit]

- When Homer enquires to Lisa that Marge would be better at getting her a new 4 1/2 reed, Lisa answers that "I called her she's not home" yet in a very next scene, Marge is seen present in the crowd reassuring Lisa that her father wouldn't fail her; this raises the question as to why Marge didn't simply take Lisa out to the store (The reason she was not home was obviously because she had departed to attend the Talent show).
- In this episode, it is revealed that Apu was dating Princess Kashmir showing how much of a bachelor he was in early seasons.
