Cultural references

• When Homer realizes that Marge is not worrying about the kids and therefore he has to, he says "Help me, Mayonaise", downs a quart of it, and flexes his bicep. This alludes to Popeye the Sailor who utters a similar sentiment about spinach just before downing a can of the same, then seeing his muscle mass of his arms instantly increase.
• The title of this episode is a play on the title of the 1950's sitcom Father Knows Best.

Trivia

• Moe lives in the back of Moe's in this episode.

Notes

Goofs

• When Homer decides to help Bart and Lisa he eats mayonnaise (in a Popeye fashion) and previously he had strong taste buds so it would hurt incredibly.
