Trivia
- Despite Homer being very against the booting, a very similar looking boot struck Bart in the butt in "Burns' Heir". That time Homer found it hilarious.
- The segment involving Hitler refers to a conspiracy theory that he survived World War 2 and escaped to Argentina. However, Hitler is shown as being still having the same physical features as he did when he was in power. Had Hitler indeed survived; at the time of this episode's airing, he would be 105 years of age.
- At one point Bart says, "Hey, I think I hear a dingo eating your baby". This is a joke about the Azaria Chamberlain disappearance.
- "That's not a knife: This is a knife!" is a famous line from Crocodile Dundee.
- While The Simpsons is prone to some errors simply for comic effect, in this particular episode, the supposed scientific knowledge of drains flowing differently in the Southern Hemisphere is actually a myth. The Corolis Effect is indeed accurate, but it only is seen in eddys and whirlpools in the ocean. Drains and toilets are too small to be affected.
- During the chase scene from the Australian Parliment, a Mad Max motorcycle gang member can be seen in the crowd.
