Continuity
- Sideshow Bob and Lisa Simpson singing a parody of "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off", which was sung by Homer and Marge Simpson on Season 21 episode, "Million Dollar Maybe".
- There are a number of callbacks to previous episodes. Bob's face falls off at one point, a reference to his scheme from "The Bob Next Door". He attempts to kill Bart and Lisa by dropping them off the top of a hydroelectric dam ("Brother from Another Series"). Finally, he gets clocked in the face by a rake he steps on, a gag first seen in "Cape Feare".
