Goofs

• Ilsa Umlaut, the con artist dog groomer, describes that pouring rain is "beach weather" in Helsinki. She also states that she went to the best school in Stockholm. Helsinki is the capital of Finland, and Stockholm is the capital of Sweden. The family should have known she was a fraud, because unless Ilsa traveled to many countries many times, she did not keep her story straight.

Trivia

• The movie the parents watch, The Merminator, is a parody of The Terminator. The bold guy that gave it thumbs up whilst the fat guy hated it is an homage to the two reviewers, Siskel and Ebert.

Quotes

• Tommy: You hear that Spike? You've been broomed [sic] for the last time!
