This was the first episode to feature recurring character Gil Gunderson, the hapless unemployed salesman. He appears in this episode as a veteran realtor, a reference to his cinematic model, Shelley Levine ('Jack Lemmon') from Americani (1992).
We never learn the fate of Lionel Hutz but it is implied that he is either fired or he resigned.

Following the death of Phil Hartman, this is the final episode in which Lionel Hutz has a speaking role (with the exception of flashbacks and clip shows) although he still seen in the background of some episodes.
