Title: After the Ball Is Over
The episode title is taken from the song After the Ball, written in 1891 by Charles K. Harris. It can be heard towards the end of the episode, sung by Alexandria and Caladonia. (edit) Jonesy: Babe get that homer yet?
Samson: It's still sitting around 699.
Samson and Jonesy, like the rest of the U.S., are eagerly waiting for Babe Ruth to hit his 700th home run. He eventually hit it on July 13, 1934, placing this episode's events sometime in the early summer 1934. (edit) "Crazy as mud-bugs on a griddle": Mud-bugs are another name for crawfish. This phrase is an analogy to being highly upset about the current events one finds themselves in. (edit) Crack-up: Colloquialism for a car accident. E.g. "You're lucky you didn't have a crack-up" (edit) Your ma is a turnip: This is a way of saying someone is in a vegetative state. In this case, Ben said it referring to Apollonia, who suffers from chronic catatonia. (edit)
