Summary[edit]

I created a new summary (see Marge on the Lam/Temp), based solely on my recollections of this great episode. Probably should mention the babysitting lawyer as well, but it's a start.... Turnstep 01:45, 21 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Music[edit]

What is the name of the song playing in the disco where Mayor Quimby was topless? 86.136.130.148 23:29, 17 January 2007 (UTC) it is the remix of the mortal kombat theme189.141.127.4 (talk) 07:30, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Successful good article nomination[edit]

I am glad to report that this article nomination for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of February 13, 2008, compares against the six good article criteria:

1. Well written?: Some minor style and grammar errors, but I corrected them.

2. Factually accurate?: Article appears to be accurate.

3. Broad in coverage?: Article sees to cover all aspects.

4. Neutral point of view?: No evidence of a POV.

5. Article stability? No evidence of edit-wars.

6. Images?: Image is given fair-use rationale. You may want to use the Non-free use rational template.

If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to Good article reassessment. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations.— ISD (talk) 15:29, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

2 questions[edit]

Where (or better when) is the scene where Quimby daces toples? In the "Reception" paragraph it says somethinbg about MArge letting down her hair. When does that happen in this episode? -78.51.66.98 (talk) 00:00, 30 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
