Cultural references
- The episode title is a reference to the 1989 film The Fabulous Baker Boys.
- The billboard gag ("If you haven't sent your mother flowers, it's too darn late!") is a reference to the episode's original airdate (May 12, 2013) being Mother's Day.
- The song Zhenya sings on-top of the piano in Bart's dream is a Russian translation of Walter Donaldson's and Gus Kahn's "Makin' Whoopee".
- The scene itself is a parody of the scene in The Fabulous Baker Boys where Michelle Pfeiffer sings the song atop a piano.
- At the talent show Ralph sings Leslie Bricusse's and Anthony Newley's "The Candy Man".
- The song playing over the end credits is Frédéric Chopin's "Polonaise in A-flat major, Op. 53".
