- They Saved Lisa's Brain: Homer looks up a word in the dictionary that has to do with sex ("boudoir" for "boudoir photography"/"eunuch" after being called that in his dream about Apu having a harem).

- Apu and Manjula are married (and Manjula even mentions that, since they're Americans, they can always divorce if their marriage goes bad).

- Eight Misbehavin':
- Apu's octuplets are seen
- Apu and Manjula's marriage hits a rough patch (taking care of the kids without help from corporate sponsors/Apu cheating on Manjula)
- Homer helps with Apu's love life.
- Homer's Night Out: A wife character (Marge/Manjula) sets up an impossible task (find Princess Kashmir and show Bart that she's a real woman and not just bachelor party entertainment/complete a list) for her husband (Homer/Apu) to do after he gets caught doing something sexual (dancing with Princess Kashmir/having sex with the Squishee Lady).
Goofs[]
- Even though the Squishees are replaced by Smooshies by the end of the episode, all future episodes featuring the Kwik-E-Mart still have Squishees. It's possible that Apu brought Squishees back after Smooshies were met with poor reception.
- When Homer gets in bed after finding out about Apu's affair, he is wearing his normal clothes, but he wakes, after having a nightmare about Apu's affair, in his sleepwear.
- When the episode starts, the Kwik-E-Mart Sign has a green, blue, and white background instead of a green and white background.
- The tasks on Apu’s list swap occasionally.
- Homer looks up the word "eunuch" in the "U" section of the dictionary. This can be excused as Homer isn't very smart and the "e" at the beginning of the word is more or less silent.
