  • Harsher in Hindsight: This episode has a line where Elaine mocks a woman who lost her fiancé at a party by telling her "maybe the dingo ate your baby" in a fake Australian accent. This was a reference to the the 1988 Australian film Evil Angels (also known as A Cry In The Dark), based on the true story of baby Azaria Chamberlain, where her parents were accused of killing Azaria but maintained that a dingo ate her. In 2012 a coroner's inquest conclusively proved that, in fact, a dingo ate Azaria Chamberlain. Though given that the evidence that exonerated them had been found in 1986, the line really wasn't any less harsh at the time.
