Lois mentions a mulatto shoeshine boy in this episode. Most people don't realize the word mulatto is a Spanish/Portuguese word meaning "mule" and is a derogatory term for a person of mixed ethnicity, most commonly having an African American and white parent. One reason this term is offensive is because mules don't reproduce and therefore considered by some to be an "accident of nature" or "genetic mistake".

In this episode it is hinted that Meg's real father isn't Peter, but a man named Stan Thompson. This has not been mentioned again in the series and could be a one-off gag.
