Trivia

  • Groundskeeper Willie, teaching French class, calls the students "cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys." The phrase has since entered the pop-culture lexicon, and it gained a lot of notoriety in the events leading up to the Iraq War.
  • This episode was the first in which a recurring character was killed off, something the staff felt that it would be a great storyline, with a lot of emotions.[1]
  • They decided on Bleeding Gums Murphy, although Mike Reiss stated "I had been polling for years to kill Marge's mom, but this was a better idea".[1]
  • Mike Reiss's father, a doctor, was the medical consultant on this episode. He stated that it was not possible to get appendicitis from eating a piece of metal.[1]
  • This was one of two episodes in season 6 that was created with the help of the staff of The Critic, with the other being "A Star Is Burns".[1]
