"22 Short Films About Springfield"
|
The episode has a number of major references to Quentin Tarantino film, Pulp Fiction:
- Like Pulp Fiction, the episode's plot is episodic and interconnected.
- When the scene cuts to Wiggum, Lou and Eddie eating in a diner, the music quotes from Misirlou, the opening theme from the film.
- Wiggum, Lou and Eddie talk about the difference between Krusty Burger and McDonald's, which parallels the famous hamburger discussion Vincent Vega and Jules Winfield hold at the start of the film. The characters are also in a diner, much like the opening scene when the characters Honeybunny and Pumpkin decide to rob the diner.
- The whole of the Chief Wiggum, Snake and Herman plot is based on the "Gold Watch" segment of the film. Numerous shots are almost identical to the film, like when Wiggum crosses the street and Snake hits him with his car in a panick. When Wiggum and Snake fight each other and enter Herman's weapon store, they are both caught and imprisoned in Herman's cellar, again like in Pulp Fiction. Herman even mentions that "Zed will be coming soon", a character from the movie.

"A Tale of Two Springfields"
|
The scene with Homer, Lenny and Carl having lunch in the nuclear power plant has a reference to the movie Pulp Fiction. While writing the new area code on his hand, Homer complains that he already has enough things to remember and a close-up of his hand shows the writing "Lenny White, Carl Black." This is a reference to the second last scene in Pulp Fiction, in which The Wolf is called to help resolve a problem. On a pad of paper before he meets up with Vincent and Jules, he writes "Vincent-White, Jules-Black" in order to distinguish between the two.
