(23 votes)

Correction: He does know that it's a prank call and that Bart is the one calling. He goes along with it because he doesn't want to make Bart mad.

I'm pretty sure that this is just an internet theory.

No, in this episode Bart has supernatural powers and the whole town lives in fear of him. He's making people do what he wants because he can.

Correction: He may only want certain people (such as those he does not like) to buy it. He's advising Homer not to buy it as he's done no wrong in the seller's books.

Andy Benham

Correction: Odd is permissible in the Tree House episodes. Some of the normal rules don't apply.

Correction: Transliterations from other languages, especially unrelated languages, into English are inexact and even inconsistent. How many ways are there of spelling, in English, the name of the dictator of Libya? Gaddafi, Qaddafi, Kaddafi ...

Bob Blumenfeld

Correction: Since this is a spin-off type episode it doesn't have to follow the other episodes. The Halloween episodes have completely random continuity, with people dying/being changed to other forms/attacked by aliens, etc.

Correction: The only shot with a green background is that of the actual paw, and it's an overhead view showing a green floor. The wall colour never changes.

Correction: It was inside Smithers' coat.

tw_stuart

Correction: No they don't, they are on the pavement in every shot.

tw_stuart

Correction: Bart is wearing exactly what he was wearing in the previous shot and Lisa is wearing the bottom half of her costume. The top half came off when Bart pushed her over.

tw_stuart

Correction: They presumably kicked it or stood on it which wouldn't necessarily be a loud enough noise for us to hear from inside.

tw_stuart

Correction: Given Bart's powers in this episode he could easily have made a bottle appear. A more mundane explanation is that Lisa or Marge brought it to him, there was more than enough time.

tw_stuart

Correction: There are various different shots from different angles, it's impossible to tell if the crowd is really changing.

tw_stuart

Correction: We never see any of them eat candy with the wrapper on.

tw_stuart

Correction: Not really, Homer opens the door so fast we don't have time to see the knocker and then the place where it should be is blocked by his head. As for the peephole maybe it was one of Homers DIY projects.

tw_stuart

Correction: He ordered turkey and he got turkey salad. There aren't that many people who would complain. Who makes plain sandwiches nowadays?
