- Alternate Character Interpretation:
- Was Becky really plotting to kill Marge as she claimed, or was she just sarcastically pointing out how absurd the notion was after Marge explained the reason behind her paranoia? Her shock at witnessing Marge being shot at with tranquilizer darts twice suggests the latter.
- Though her advice was somewhat off the mark, Marge may have done Becky a favor by indirectly breaking up the wedding. Becky and Otto were doomed as a couple. Otto was no more likely to change his behavior after he was married, and until she sought Marge's advice, Becky could not speak up for herself when Otto put heavy metal before her. As embarrassing as it was for Becky to be left behind at the altar, it made for a much cleaner break from him than to have to navigate a divorce within a couple of years. It's possible Becky's "confession" was her way of taking responsibility for her part in Marge's breakdown: if she had had the courage to talk to Otto about her troubles BEFORE the wedding, Marge and the Simpsons would not have gotten dragged into the fallout.
- Nausea Fuel:
- A lot of vegetarians, as well as some non-vegetarians, would likely find Marge's blasé explanation of how she slips meat into Lisa's food to be rather disgusting.
- Homer stabbing his fingers with a knife while playing Five-Finger Fillet and getting part of his tongue ripped off (after getting it stuck on the ice sculpture).
