   Mmm, OK. I wish there were more weight on Bart's disappointment of   
   Marge or, if it was supposed to be about his struggle for purpose,   
   then that instead. But Homer's worrying about being more bald was an   
   interesting diversion and I enjoyed the driving lesson subplot   
   somewhat.   
      
      
   DYN:   
   ...Marge's license plate says "H1P70L" after the car crashes through   
   the wall? (1PHL07 often shows up these days - I thought more often on   
   Homer's car - but if it was a gag about the crash jumbling up the   
   letters too, that's kind of clever)   
   ...the 30-second Justin Bieber warning was a bit early?   
      
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   7F06: Couch gag includes a failed jump over the gorge   
   HABF18: I guess it's a good thing no one was offering to teach Bart   
   drums   
   2F21: Wiggum being bribed with jeans reminiscent of this episode   
   2F01: Xenia calls Bart Bort   
   2F09: Patrick Stewart returns as a guest voice (though for a rather   
   different, if still bald, character)   
   2F14: Patty and Selma give this guy a limo driver's license (which   
   Homer had sought but not actually gotten from them)   
      
      
   Beginnings and endings   
   -Another episode with a bizarrely constructed opening (why we saw a   
   very basic sax solo between the blackboard and couch gag, with nothing   
   in between, I do not know). Also for what it's worth, for those not   
   watching live on Fox, there was a promo just before it, saying the   
   couch gag (Robot Chicken style) was sponsored by Subway, though the   
   connection is not at all clear.   
   -Another episode with Al Jean's credit starting just a little early   
   (also causing the rest of the credits to be white). Still no return of   
   the "next week" promo, but it always seems as if it's a looming   
   possibility.
