1* DeletedScene: The scene where Bart donates blood was originally supposed to be longer and show the interior, with Bart having his blood taken.
2* FirstAppearance: Of Jacqueline Bouvier, Bill, Marty, and Mr. Burns' hounds[[note]]He threatened to release them in "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS1E4TheresNoDisgraceLikeHome There's No Disgrace Like Home]]", but this is their first physical appearance[[/note]].
3* RealitySubtext: During Bart's ImagineSpot, Uncle Sam appears and tells him it's his fault America has lost its' way. This is a reference to politicians, conservatives, and {{Moral Guardians}} deeming Bart (and the show) a bad influence during the show's early years. Specifically, this was cemented during President UsefulNotes/GeorgeHWBush's speech that American families should be "more like ''Series/TheWaltons'' and less like ''The Simpsons''".
4* UncreditedRole: According to Al Jean, Maggie's line in Bart's imagination [[note]] "It's your fault I can't talk!" [[/note]] was supplied by an uncredited Creator/CarolKane. She was not credited because she asked not to be.
5* WriteWhatYouKnow: The idea of Bart going up on the roof was suggested by writer George Meyer, who used to go up on the roof himself when he had fights with his family.
