*While walking through Chinatown, the Simpsons pass by a store called Toys "L" Us, a parody of the toy store Toys "R" Us.
*Mr. Burns saying "frabjous day" and "Callooh! Callay!" is a reference to the poem "Jabberwocky" from Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. Principal Skinner said "Callooh! Callay!" in Season 2's Principal Charming (Coincidentally both those characters are voiced by Harry Shearer). This would later be said by Moe Szyslak in Eeny Teeny Maya, Moe.
