   Not too bad, especially with the glimpse of a competent and beloved Homer, and   
   the return of mystery-solving Bart and Lisa, as well as a chance for Marge to   
   shine. Fell apart a little near the end as the actual solution was a little   
   silly and I didn't    
   really care about the kid, but otherwise, seems about right for a Selman   
   episode (and fairly long too). And har har, no one knows what tube TVs are   
   anymore.   
      
   DYN:   
   ...Lisa has a can of Stan Getz saxophone polish?   
   ...one might say what Nelson cooked, judging by the sound, is a "crunchy frog"?   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   9F21: Dr. Dolittle was quoted in song in that episode   
   2F09: "Children can be so cruel" similar to a line there   
   SABF16: Bender safe may be a permanent fixture in the house now   
   3F24: Marge's upgraded her estimation of spices if not her actual knowledge    
   (and the spice rack also comes into play in a festival atmosphere)   
   8F09: BBQ fantasy and its music somewhat reminiscent of the Land of Chocolate   
   3F05, FABF15: Muu muu and Pie Man outfit among the attic clothes seen   
   1F16: "To try is to fail" reminiscent of "the lesson is never try" speech (and   
   according to that episode capsule, there's a similar piece of wisdom in 8F03)   
      
   Meta   
   Marge's license plate is still EP7G08 (see TABF07, TABF14 for example), so I   
   am guessing that's what it is for good (to go with Homer's longer-established   
   1PHL07).
