Trivia

Lisa's swearing in as Little Miss Springfield is identical to LBJ taking the Oath if office on November 22, 1963. If you look close, Marge is portraying Jackie Kennedy as she stands next to Lisa dressed all in pink. See more »

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: When Lisa is announced the Runner up and Amber Dempsey is announced the winner, the other candidates in the background disappear, in the next shot, they appear in the background again. See more »

Quotes

[after Lisa loses the pageant, the family is watching the winner being crowned; it starts to rain]
Marge: Oh, dear. It would be such a shame if that pretty dress got wet.
Lisa: I'd say the bigger danger is her sceptre acting as a lightning rod. Unless it's made out of plastic.
[BOOM!]
Bart Simpson: Nope, metal.
