* EpicFail: Marge finds her attempts to teach Bart's class exhausting because the kids took 40 minutes to find Canada on the map despite it being the U.S.A.'s neighboring country and one of the largest in the world. Homer follows this up thinking Canada is a small, obscure country.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: After making a big deal about how sensitive the cannons of the Civil War era were, and how the one they're looking at was aimed at a manned lookout tower, when the Springfield Elementary School bus arrives and knocks it over results in nothing happening, the guide points out they obviously wouldn't keep the things loaded for safety reasons.

* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Bart deliberately provokes the strike simply because he thought it would be a fun alternative to school, and indeed he proceeds to wreck havoc on the town, and scares off substitutes when he is forced to go back to school. That said, it comes back to bite him in the ass ''hard'' when he has to suffer the embarrassment of having his particularly-embarassing mother teach his class and ends up the victim of Nelson and his gang, who freely beat him up since they knew he was the one responsible for the parents coming in, all the while distracting Marge so she wouldn't intervene. Ultimately, he ends up being forced to settle the very strike ''he provoked to begin with.''
