Trivia / The Simpsons S 15 E 11 Margical History Tour

• Accidentally-Correct Writing:
  • Henry (Homer) tells Princess Mary (Lisa) to "grow a penis or get lost!" After a few minutes of straining, Lisa gives up on the attempt. While this is obviously a silly scene, some people in this time period thought that the uterus, vagina, and ovaries basically were an inside-out penis and testicles and that excessive physical activity could cause them to fall out on rare occasions. Anatomy was a pretty new science back then.
  • Henry's fifth wife says "You didn't dump me, I dumped you!" seconds before being beheaded. The real Henry's fifth wife, Katherine Howard, did have an affair with courtier Thomas Culpeper, and legend has it that she declared on the scaffold that she would rather have died as his wife.
