** Bart mentions that Lisa forced the family into marching in a gay rights parade. On simpsonsarchive.com, many people asked why Smithers (who is established to be gay and in love with his boss) isn't in the front page photo. The answer: either he wasn't in the shot or (more realistically) he was still in the closet about his homosexuality at the time of this episode (and gay pride parades celebrate those who are open about their homosexuality). The second possibility becomes clearer after seeing the scene in season 13's "Jaws Wired Shut" where Smithers and Patty are in the "Stayin' in the Closet" float (the float that celebrates homosexuals and lesbians who choose not to come out about their sexual orientation). That, and at the time the episode was written, Smithers was just ''Burns''sexual (meaning he's gay, but he loves Mr. Burns, so it's a case of SingleTargetSexuality), not fully homosexual).

* FridgeLogic: Wouldn't Smithers have bought the Lisa Lionheart doll anyway? Kids not buying the doll is understandable (since children are fickle and will go after whatever is said to be the next trendy toy), but Smithers is a doll collector. Most doll collectors go for dolls that are rare or have had a limited run before being pulled off the market and, considering that Smithers works for Mr. Burns as both his executive assistant and his home care taker, he would be able to afford it.
** Well he mostly collects Malibu Stacy dolls, so he would be more eager to add another to his collection.
