[edit] necklaces

in this episode marge loses her necklace and is shown without it in other scenes. Marge also says that the mugger's girlfriend shouldn't put the necklace in a drawer even though in an earlier episode:

Marge:" Homer, that necklace was a priceless Bouvier family heirloom." Homer: "Oh, you've probably got a whole drawer full of 'em." Marge: "Well, yes I do. But they're all heirlooms too." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Verstandlich (talk • contribs) 01:11, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

208.57.68.160 18:58, 3 August 2006 (UTC)Why is it "ironic" that there was no dedication to the crew of the space shuttle?

It isn't. I removed the "ironic" comment. I'm not even sure if the mention of the shuttle crash is appropriate. It seems to come out of the blue.--Agent Aquamarine 01:09, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah I don't see how the fact this episode aired the day after the disaster is relevant in any way; I'm removing it. Scott 17:12, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

BTW, the necklace-mugging reminds me of something, somehow. It may be the first Batman film, but I'm not sure. Anyone else got that feeling? 81.233.196.49 (talk) 18:47, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rape

The article says that marge "more or less rapes homer". But that is all. How can that possibly be? It doesn't say anything about what happened or its aftermath or how people have responded to it. I don't have access to the episode, so could someone else please add some details about this. Imagine if any other character had been raped. The page would be at least half full of commentary about and related to the rape, but in this episode it gets a one sentence long reference. Not even a discription of what happened, just a side reference. What is going on here? The bellman 05:12, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

Marge wants to 'snuggle', but Homer says he has a headache. She holds him down, but the scene quickley cuts to him sad, and eating breakfast. By the way, the picture for this article is truly disturbing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.218.145.112 (talk) 20:31, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't forget, when he says no, she tells him she 'wasn't asking' and after breakfast, he limps out in pain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.31.162.209 (talk) 19:09, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok, i've added that info to the article. Thanks. The bellman (talk) 09:02, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wikiquote

Wikiquote doesn't have any quotations on the episode. Should we remove the erroneous template, or get Wikiquote updated so it does have some material on this? 129.67.53.232 19:51, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
