- This episode originally contained a subplot about Luanne becoming an auxiliary police officer. It was cut prior to airing, due to lack of time. edit »
- Bobby: He's running with a flaming lie. How can I enjoy the figure skating with this dark cloud hanging over me?
Peggy: Bobby, if your father doesn't do this, the Hills will be forever known as the family that ruined the Olympics. Now, I can go back to using my maiden name. I have no idea what you will do. edit » - Dale: It's just like when we were in high school. You secreting, me absorbing. And you know, these are the very same towels from back then. edit »
- Dale: The year is 1979. Every week, America turns for hope to Laverne and Shirley. Ted Koppel arranges to have forty-four Americans held hostage on a soundstage in Burbank by actors impersonating Iranian fanatics. And Arlen's leading all-time rusher is Hank Hill. The hopes and dreams of a small Texas town in the state of Texas rest squarely on the broad, athletic shoulders of its star running back and his trusted towel manager. edit »
- Hank: She's just setting him up for a fall. Like when we told Bill there was a woman out there for him. edit »
- (After getting the torch from Hank)
Torch Carrier #2: Okay, you can do this. The tide is low so it's in your favor! Yeah McManerberry! Brother running with a torch and not a damn thing you can do about! edit »
- The title of this episode is an allusion to the title of the popular play Torch Song Trilogy by Harvey Fierstein. edit »
