  • During the scene where Marge chases the school bus, Milhouse says, "It's like Speed 2! Only with a bus instead of a boat!", off-handedly summarizing the plot of the original film, Speed.

Trivia

Goofs

  • In the chase scene, Milhouse is sitting on the left side (our view), however after Otto reverses to pick up the new kid, Milhouse is on the right side.
    • He could have easily switched seats.
  • In Homer's grade school flashback where he is beating up a young Waylon Smithers, Jr., the musical instrument Barney is shown playing is a recorder, but the sound produced is that of a kazoo.
  • Lisa has 4 Indian burns, then 3, then 4, then it's gone altogether.
  • In a rush, Marge mismatches the shirts of Bart and Lisa (Bart has Lisa's dress and Lisa has Bart's shirt) but in the kitchen it's normal.
  • Francine has a nose clip in the swimming pool scene on CCTV. It disappears when Lisa puts it forward, but then it reappears and she then says "Of course. The nose clips."
