What was the movie about the two sisters that was pariodied in this episode?

[edit]

I'd like to know too, anyone have any idea? 69.203.86.122

If anyone still cares, Lisa's nightmare was a reference to the 1962 film What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?. I'll add it to the trivia section. --Marshmello 21:39, 11 November 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Marshmello (talkcontribs)

Apu's kids seem to be older than Maggie, who hasn't aged since they were born... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.124.116.101 (talk) 00:19, 23 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"I see a vase, but he sees two men in profile."

[edit]

Near the end, Lue comes up and says "Chief, we have a problem." He then proceeds to lift up the famous image of two faces that form a vase, or a glass. Is there a name for this picture? Also, Chief Wiggum then holds up a picture of two cavemen, a small one up close and a larger one behind. He then poses the question "Which figure is bigger? The answer will blow your mind." Is this a real picture, and if so what is it called? 154.20.135.89 03:29, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Tongue Biology.

[edit]

When Lisa goes to sleep at the tongue of the giant human statue, the tongue is divided with bitter on the left and sweet on the right. In real life, sweet taste buds are located at the tip of the tongue while bitter taste buds are at the end or root of the tongue. This might be worth adding as a goof.

That's a common misconception. In real life taste buds of all kinds are located all over the tongue, not just in specific areas of the tongue. See: Taste bud - Localization of taste and the human "tongue_map". I added this correction to the Trivia section. -- HiEv 16:35, 7 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Probably true, but at my own museum, they have a display showing that exact thing. That makes the Springfield museum a rather realistic one.

Free Beer

[edit]

On the free bear signs, dosn't it say "P.S. No free Beer" at the bottom? If it dose, I think that should be added. 209.181.224.182 01:17, 2 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cultural References

[edit]

"When they're reviewing the tape there is a reference to the ESPER machine from Blade Runner. The ESPER machine is a voice-commanded device used to manipulate photographs." (remove from article)

Is there any source to validate this? The only connection is the voice control, the ESPER machine can do much more than "rotate and magnify", has special sounds and a slower interface.
