Cultural references

  • The episode title is a reference to the television series Orange Is the New Black.
  • Wiggum makes a pun on Silvester Stallone's name, Silvester Alone.
  • Marge reads a book by James Patterson.
    • The title of the book, Bishop takes night, is a reference to bishop takes knight in chess.
  • The black and white scenes with Homer as homemaker are a reference to Donna Reed.[1]
  • The couch gag is inspired by the style of IKEA's manuals.
  • The scene where "neighbors with appetizers" show up is like the ending of the 1946 film It's a Wonderful Life, when the townspeople show up: both show neighborly support and refer to the main character as being "the richest man" while the same carol is heard in the background: "Hark! the Herald Angels Sing."

Continuity

Trivia

  • In the opening sequence:
    • Lenny shouts "Oh not again" when falling from the ladder in the Power Plant.
    • In the store, Maggie's price is "Read Again".
  • The bear in Mr. Burns's office is shown to be a real bear.
  • Before the couch gag, Homer is already holding the manual when he gets run over by Marge and Maggie in the Orange Station Wagon.

Goofs

  • At first, Marge needed a phone to hear Homer through the bulletproof glass in the Prision's visiting room, but later, Homer is able to talk to her without the phone.
  • When Marge fires the prison guard's gun, the guard has long sleeves. However, the sleeves become short once Marge is handcuffed. When Marge is escorted out of the visiting room, the guard's sleeves are long again.
