  • When Comic Book Guy throws the sledgehammer into Steve Mobbs' image on the wall video screen (after Bart hacked into the newsfeed and plays a joke on the Mapple Store shoppers), it is a reference to the "1984" Super Bowl commerical that introduced the Macintosh personal computer.
  • Bart tries to use a MyCube to help in his escape from the store, and all that happens is that the MyCube plays music. The song it plays is "Lovin' You" by Minnie Riperton.
