Krusty once got cosmetic surgery in Switzerland in a desperate attempt at evading the mob regarding unpaid debts. However, due to a mix-up, he ended up getting a boob job instead of his face altered (his planned surgery).[2]
Gil is working at the grocery store and talking to himself while reshelving Marge's carton of milk, "Oh, boy, a put-back! I hope it takes me by the freezer section. Stick my head in the pizza case, it's like a ski vacation! I can imagine the pepperonis are Swiss chalets nestled in a big layer of mozzarella snow."[3]
In a flashback Homer and Marge are at Towne Centre at Springfielde Glenne with Bart who was still a baby. Homer left Bart with Ned Flanders and romantically whisked Marge onto the escalator telling her, "But first, m'lady, let me escort you to Heaven... the fancy Swiss chocolate store on Level 3."[4]
