Trivia

• It is impossible to explode your kidney from "holding it in" too long.
• Dr. Hibbert said both of Grampa's kidneys were fine the day before the "blowout", but in "Old Money" from season 2 Grampa tells Bea Simmons that he has only one working kidney.
• When Homer was parallel parking the railcar, he looked awfully out of proportion to the cars on either side of him. If you look closely you'll see that he barely comes up to the height of the boot on the closest car.
• The tracks in the concrete appear before the railcar wheels rolled over it.
• Maggie isn't seen with the family during the hospital scenes.
• Homer didn't pay for his sailor outfit when he was "fleeing in shame".
• The dialogue during the gunfight was not put into closed captioning.
• Homer said he wanted to watch "Inside the Actors Studio", but it's only on cable TV, and the Simpsons haven't had cable since "Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment".
• The "Honeybunch" insignia wasn't on Captain McAllister's ship until Homer mentioned it.

Cultural references

• The ship of lost souls scenes bears a resemblance to "No Exit" by Jean Paul Sartre.
