Other mistake: If Burt honestly believes he only has days left to live, wouldn't he be wondering why he isn't displaying any symptoms of illness (coughing, fever, pain etc). Also why wasn't he prescribed any kind of medication by the doctor who gave him this prognosis. Kinda silly really.

Continuity mistake: Dabney Coleman and the villain fight on the scaffolding on the side of a skyscraper high above the city. They are the only two people on the scaffold, but during the fight at the bottom of the screen you can clearly see a man's head.

Burt Simpson: You got to be kidding.
