* ForWantOfANail: Had Bart not lied to Mrs. Krabappel about having detention all summer, she would have left Springfield with Moe, the gold would have gone with them, and the entire show would have been very different. Instead, she chooses to stay, Moe angrily breaks up with her, and the gold passes from him to Burns to Rich Texan, all culminating in the four-way MexicanStandoff at the episode's climax.

* MythologyGag: In Lisa's story, Smithers wasn't there to help them because he was getting a spray-on tan. According to Mr. Burns, "He comes back orange and stains the furniture.".

* GoThroughMe: Mr. Burns pulls this in order to protect Lisa from a goat. Burns being [[PatheticallyWeak Burns]], it doesn't do much, but Lisa still appreciates the attempt.
Added DiffLines:
* SenselessSacrifice: A non-fatal example that turns into a subversion. Burns pulls a TakeMeInstead on the goat that's pursuing Lisa, but after it headbutts him, it goes after Lisa anyway... and reveals it was only trying to return her necklace. Burns despairs that he has sacrificed himself for nothing, but Lisa is so touched that she asks to take a photo with him -- which just so happens to be the final scavenger hunt item he needs. The sacrifice was ultimately beneficial, just not in the way Burns intended.
Added DiffLines:
* TakeMeInstead: Burns implores this of the goat pursuing Lisa, though it's more out of [[DeathSeeker suicidal despair over the loss of his nuclear plant]] than actual selflessness. It also doesn't work, not least because the goat doesn't actually want to hurt Lisa at all.

* EnthusiasticNewbieTeacher: The episode shows us Edna Krabappel after her divorce, but before she got beaten down by Springfield, Springfield's school district, and Bart. She really believed in her power to make a difference in kids' lives, which was what caused her to stay and take the teaching job instead of skipping town with Moe.

** Moe's story segues into Mrs. Krabappel explaining why she decided to take the fourth-grade teaching job instead of leaving town with him: she met Bart Simpson, who, when she asked him why he was in the school building during the summer, told her that he was serving detention all summer and tearfully confessed that everybody had given up on trying to better him in an apparent show of HiddenDepths. In the main story, Marge interrupts Lisa to point out that Bart never ''had'' detention all summer, to which Bart clarifies that he was helping Nelson to rob the classroom at the time and made the story up to both explain why he was there and keep her distracted.
