(edit)
Alice (to Geraldine about Harry): Has he parked his purple Porsche in your personal parking space?
(edit)
"It Should Have Been Me", performed by Yvonne Fair, is the song to which Geraldine lip-synchs to in the imagined wedding between Harry and Rose.
(edit)
In this episode Geraldine's name is given as Geraldine Julie Andrews Dick Van Dyke Supercalifragilistic-expialidocious Chim Chim Cher-ee Granger. But in the episode Spring she says her name is Boadicea Geraldine Granger.
(edit)
This is not the first time Geraldine has fallen into a puddle. She also was fully submerged in the season 2 episode, Love and Marriage. Each circumstance involves a man that Geraldine is romantically interested in.
(edit)
Geraldine's rising out the puddle is a reference to Captain Willard rising from the water in Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now.
