Trivia
- The karaoke signer identifying himself as Richie Sakai is a caricature and namesake of The Simpsons producer Richard Sakai.
- Homer drinks a large bottle of "Duffihama" beer with his dinner at The Happy Sumo.
- The Simpsons have a mouse problem in their home: A mousehole is seen in the videotaped message to Maggie from Homer.
- The clock reads 7:00 when the kids run in for dinner, but during dinner, it reads 5:00.
- In the ending credits, Homer is eating and watching tv, this is a reused scene from the previous season episode, "Moaning Lisa".
- Homer's telling Bart that "cover for me" is a phrase he will find useful in his adult years is, ironically, the very phrase that lands Homer in his fugu situation when the Master Sushi Chef tells Toshiro to "cover for me" so he could go make out with Edna Krabappel, and ignoring Toshiro's pleas that he was too inexperienced to prepare an order of fugu.
- Fugu is in fact a poisonous fish if cut improperly. Sushi chefs must work for several years before being allowed to take tough tests in order to become certified to prepare it. The Emperor of Japan is also prohibited by law from eating fugu.
