The South Tower's indoor observation deck was on the 107th floor.However, it is 843 acres big so there are many places where they can meet. Marge tells Homer they will meet in Central Park.In this episode a New York civilian tosses a coin in front of Homer, leaving Homer to respond, 'I'm not a bum.' However, the subplot of ' Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore' revolves around Homer posing as a bum which he proves to be so good at that he steals attention from real bums.Patty and Selma', etc.) However, Homer's name is listed second in this one when it is normally first. This is one of several episodes with a title in the style of a court case.The writers on the DVD commentary have mentioned how dated this episode has become following 9/11, and regret using the 'jerks in Tower One' line.This is the first time that Lisa Simpson shushes.

A clip from this episode is also shown in the 2000 movie adventure drama The Beach.

After a few years, the episode came back, though some airings banned all the scenes of Homer near the Twin Towers (including his bathroom rush to both towers) or left them in and cut out the line, 'They stick all the jerks in Tower One.' This is particularly sensitive because in 1993, Tower One (the North Tower) was the site of the initial bombing, and in the 2001 attacks, Tower One was the first to be hit and the tower where more people were killed or trapped.

After the September 11 attacks, the episode was banned from television due to the prominence of the World Trade Center towers.

So ironically it shows the numbers 9 and 11 while referencing the Towers and this episode aired four years before the September 11 attacks.

On the front cover of the magazine, the text says 'New York $9', the Twin Towers look like the number 11.

When Homer throws his wallet into the fireplace, the picture of Selma and Patty on the mantle has a red-haired Selma and a blue-haired Patty (instead of their normal 'purple' hair color).
