    Eh. Lisa's story was somewhat interesting, at least once the Nibbles angle came
    in at the end and she got off her high horse. Marge's was ludicrous.
    DYN:
    ...Lisa's online CPR training is not very accurate?
    ...Marge says she's "one of those people who doesn't" whatever, instead of "don't"?
    ...Marge's voice near the end when she starts crying with Lisa gets very scratchy and deep, as if Julie Kavner's own voice slipped through just a bit? Previous episode stuff
    3F03: Title seems inspired by this old episode's
    7F18: Homer finally gets the water slide width he needs
    4F01: That is supposed to be Lisa's first kiss (though some might point to 7G05)
    7F23: Lisa's enjoyment of compound German words to perfectly name feelings DABF02, CABF06: the only Nibbles references I caught in the photo montage Repeat alert
    For some reason, Sam Simon was listed as an executive producer at the end, even
    though his EP credit has been gone since the start of the VABFs. I wonder if this was an oversight or if he had some special part in the early stages of this episode that he didn't on the others. If it was an oversight, it might vanish on repeats.
    And finally (Don)
    For what it's worth, the Nascar race ran long and the Fox lineup didn't start till 7:30 in the east; Bordertown was skipped entirely, so it's already feeling
    the excitement of the 7:00 slot, on its very first night there!

    Error in the episode.

    During the scene where Homer is watching the NHL draft. The announcer on TV says the Phoenix Coyotes. Phoenix Coyotes no longer exist. They changed their
    name to the Arizona Coyotes for the 2014-2015 season.
