Arizona conducted a recount and established the exact number of Trump votes that had not been counted during the first round as... seven.

* HarsherInHindsight: The mother-daughter conversation in which Marge rather implausibly compares her relationship with Homer to Lisa's FirstLove infatuation with Mr. Bergstrom, to Lisa's doubt ("Mom, are we gonna talk or are we gonna ''talk?")'' gets interesting in light of "That 90s Show," which deals with a LoveTriangle between Homer, Marge and an attractive college professor who expanded Marge's mind just as Bergstrom does for Lisa here.
