Behind the Scenes
Allusions and References
- In the tag, Boomhauer's warning against cigarette use mentions Morton Downey, Jr., a famous provocateur who was known for his smoking until he was diagnosed with and subsequently died of lung cancer, spending his last years as an anti-smoking activist. He also mentions Robert Downey, Jr. which he refers to as "even worse," alluding to the fact that he had a high profile drug addiction that nearly destroyed his career before he eventually recovered and rebounded with high profile roles.

Quotes
- Luanne: Just look at Ladybird.
- Hank: Ah, Ladybird. Didn't Luanne make you look pretty? Pretty dog. Who's a pretty dog? (to Luanne) Get that stuff off of her. She looks like Fran Drescher.
- Luanne: I didn't put it on. Your dog ate all my cruelty-free makeups.
- Peggy: Okay, honey, calm down. If she tries it again, you just give her a little tap on the fanny with a rolled up newspaper.
- Luanne: I spent extra money to buy cruelty-free. I'll do a lot more than "tap her".
- Hank: Didn't you read this? "Cancer, heart disease, emphysema."
- Bobby: I thought those were the ingredients.
- Luanne: I cannot believe that you're all smoking! Don't you know more people die of smoking than die of... war... in Vietnam every day?
