* AlternativeJokeInterpretation: When Burns acts TotallyRadical to talk to Skinner, he's seen wearing Jimbo's clothes. It's left ambiguous whether he just happened to buy the same pair of clothes, saw Jimbo and decided to impersonate him, or mugged Jimbo for his clothes off-screen.

** There was [[http://www.simpsonsarchive.com/guides/super.dude.html a theory]] that the one who shot Mr. Burns was Super Dude, the dead grade four gerbil that indirectly leads to the school striking oil.
** WebVideo/TheRealJims offered two [[https://youtu.be/pIeQ3Ym8f00 alternate]] [[https://youtu.be/za9IVKmbb-E theories]] that either [[spoiler: Marge or Lisa]] shot Mr. Burns. He would later release [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mIQzAJLKmUA three]] [[https://youtu.be/ma3BBsZSPMs other]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2KrchonqP0 theories]] where [[spoiler: Grandpa]], [[spoiler: Bart]], and [[spoiler: Homer]] are possible shooters.
** In 2020, [[https://sports.yahoo.com/simpsons-boss-responds-viral-theory-151500867.html?src=rss someone noticed]] that Krusty at the end of part one really looked like Homer dressed as Krusty, as in "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS6E15HomieTheClown Homie the Clown]]", giving rise to the theory Homer had disguised himself as Krusty to shoot Mr. Burns. Showrunner [[WordOfGod Bill Oakley]] shot this down and said this wasn't intentional. [=TheRealJims=] also mentioned this in his theory that [[spoiler: Homer shot Mr. Burns]].
* HilariousInHindsight: Skinner and Chalmers's exchange near the start of the episode, when Skinner hides the word "Awful" at the start of the headline about Springfield Elementary finding oil ("Awful School is Awful Rich") and then covers it up with BlatantLies, is often seen by fans as a percursor to the famous "Steamed Hams" scene from "22 Short Films About Springfield".
-->'''Chalmers:''' Now, what's that say under your hand there?\\
'''Skinner:''' Hmm? Oh, it's an unrelated article.\\
'''Chalmers:''' It's an unrelated article?\\
'''Skinner:''' Mm-hmm.\\
'''Chalmers:''' Within the banner headline?\\
'''Skinner:''' Yes.

* ValuesDissonance: Today, there's a form of security when it comes to weapons, especially in a government building like Town Hall. However, Mayor Quimby didn’t seem to be too bothered about this and let the people express their reasons for being armed.
