Did You Know?
Trivia | There were difficulties getting this episode up to the minimum length of an episode and many scenes were added in post-production. The episode starts with a repeat of a couch gag that was first used in Lisa's First Word (1992), which is considerably longer than the typical couch gag. The crew added an Itchy & Scratchy cartoon and a few misleads as to who was trying to kill Bart. Even with all of these additions, the episode still ran short of time. This led to the creation of the rake sequence, which became a memorable moment of the episode, and the entire series. See more » |
Goofs | In the final scene, when the Simpsons arrive back at their house they drive straight past it and Grampa Simpson is not in the garden. In the next shot they are stopping outside their house and Grampa Simpson is standing in the garden. See more » |

Quotes |
[the Simpsons are being placed in the Federal Witness Protection Program]
FBI Man #1: Tell you what, sir, from now on, you'll be Homer Thompson at Terror Lake. Let's just practice a bit, hmm? When I say "hello, Mr. Thompson", you'll say "hi". Homer: Check! FBI Man #1: Hello, Mr. Thompson. [Homer stares blankly] FBI Man #1: Remember now, your name is Homer Thompson. Homer: I gotcha. FBI Man #1: Hello, Mr. Thompson. [again Homer stares blankly] [FBI men stare at each other] [hours pass by] FBI Man #1: [frustrated] Argh... Now when I say "hello, Mr. Thompson" and press down on your foot, you smile and nod. Homer: No problem. FBI Man #1: [stepping hard on Homer's foot] Hello, Mr. Thompson. Homer: [stares blankly again for a few seconds, then whispers to the other FBI man] I think he's talking to you.
