Continuity

• There's a few references to "Lisa's Substitute":

  • The poster looking for Lisa that says "Free Beer: Now that I got your attention...", which is like the one where Bart's campaign poster says "Sex: Now that I got your attention..."
• Lisa said her I.Q. is 159. In "Homer's Enemy", Homer states Lisa's I.Q. is 156.
• A Phonics Frog is seen within Bart's toys in "Treehouse of Horror XVIII".

Goofs

• When Lisa first went on the giant tongue at the museum, there were no markings on it, but when Lisa released she was on the "bitter" side, the markings are seen.
