Notes

• Signs outside Burns' Manor: "Keep Out," "Danger Electrified Fence," "Trespassers Will Be Shot" and "Free Kittens Inquire Within."
• One of Burns' presents is a unicorn.
• At the party, there are vases shaped like the power plant cooling towers on the tables.
• The Simpsons theme music plays when Homer comes on stage.
• Smithers wears his ID badge everywhere.
• Charles Lindberg actually landed in Paris at night, not in the daytime as shown in this episode. Also it is unlikely that Hitler would have been there.
• Milhouse's picture is on the milk cartons before it is replaced with Bobo.
• Even the pets help to restrain Homer from dialling the phone.
• Otto watches TV while driving the bus - and he's in a cemetary.
• Although Grampa crashes through the front wall of the Simpsons' house, it is repaired in the next scene.
• If Mr. Burns and Smithers could get on the Flanders' roof, why couldn't they just go on the Simpson's roof?
