Sam: (giving the committee's decision to Oliver) Well, the verdict's in. You're out. (edit) Dooly Watkins: (asking about Oliver) What kind of man is he?
Ralph: When he's not a sorehead?
Dooly Watkins: Yes.
Ralph: He's a hot head. (edit) Grover Simpson: Well, how long did you serve in WWI?
Oliver: WWII!
Grover Simpson: Who was that one with? (edit) (Oliver is giving his standard "wanting to be a farmer" speech, with the fife playing in the background)
Dooly Watkins: That's a nice speech.
Lisa: Did you like the fife?
Dooly Watkins: How's that?
Oliver: She always thinks she hears a fife. (edit) (after the opening credits appeared on Lisa's cooking)
Oliver: Well, Good morning. What's for Breakfast?
Lisa: Namescakes.
Oliver: Namescakes?
Lisa: Hotscakes with names on them. (edit)

Brad Collins, the current state senator, is resigning at age 92 to get married and raise a family. His fiance is 96. (edit) During the flashback, when Oliver is giving his speech about farming to the guys in Druckers Store, the typical "Yankee Doodle Dandy" fife music is playing in the background. This was added for this episode, as it didn't have the music the first time it aired (as the premier episode) (edit) The names of the executive producer, Paul Henning, and writers Jay Sommers and Dick Chevillat appear on Lisa's hotscakes. Director Richard L Bare's name appears on a piece of toast. (edit)
