Trivia
- The crowd at the parade is reused and altered from "Four Regrettings and a Funeral".
- When Chief Wiggum is arresting Jimbo, he removes Jimbo's cap to reveal that he still has his hair, conflicting with incidences in "Moms I'd Like to Forget" and "Beware My Cheating Bart" where we see that the top of Jimbo's head is actually bald under his cap.
- Flanders' dog Baz, introduced in "Peeping Mom", is seen.
Goofs
- At the parade, the Old Jewish man has Groundskeeper Willie's colors.
