The Canine Mutiny/References

Trivia

• The episode's name is a play on the classic maritime novel and war film The Caine Mutiny
• When Bart fails to pay the credit card bill the items Bart bought gets repossessed. Credit cards are unsecured debt. A mortgage or car loan is secure debt, and thus subject to repossession. The credit card company can decrease a persons credit rating but they are unable to repossess. However, in the instance of credit card fraud, which is what Bart committed, creditors may have the option to impound tangible items purchased with a fraudulent credit card.
