** Bart tells Homer that New York is better now because his two least favorite buildings have been destroyed, setting up for a very tasteless joke about the September 11th attacks on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center (since the last time Homer was in New York City, he had to wait at the towers because his car was parked there), but Homer really meant Penn Station and Shea Stadium. ("Lousy outdated relics!")

* TookALevelInJerkass: Darcy & Gina, who ended their relationships with Bart on good terms, were not happy to see him in the least for some reason. Nikki on the other hand still flip-flops on the matter.

* GirlOfTheWeek: {{Lampshaded}} by Lisa, who specifically mentions that "about a week" is as long as Bart can get a girl to stay with him. This causes Bart to [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome doubt his ability to get a girl to really care about him]].

-->'''Homer:''' You've learned a very valuable life lesson, boy, which is that love doesn't exist, except briefly between a man and a woman before marriage. After that, it's just hanging out with someone who kind of hates you, but you can't get it together to leave.

* CallForward: Bart teases Lisa for attending a party with Milhouse as her date and predicts a kid who will look exactly like Milhouse, while Lisa insists "We're not having a baby!" and retorts that at least she ''has'' a date, unlike Bart, whose girlfriends are always temporary. This perfectly reflects where they all are in the precious season's FlashForward episode "Holidays of Future Passed": Lisa has married the ever-loyal Milhouse but is a TrulySingleParent to their child (genetically engineered from the best DNA of each of them, therefore [[ButtMonkey none of his]]), while Bart's unhappily divorced and single.
