ReferenceDetails
Animal HouseWe see Herbert staring at Chris through the window. This is similar to a scene from this movie.
Fast Times at Ridgemont HighMort Goldman throws a pot of coffee at Peter and Spicoli walks out of the bathroom and says "YEAH GOLDMAN!" In Fast Times Brad (Judge Reinhold) works at a convenience mart at night and a robber comes in a holds it up, Spicoli walks out of the restroom distracting the robber and Brad throws a hot coffee on him and Spicoli says "YEAH HAMILTON!" One more thing-In the episode Spicoli is wearing a t-shirt with marijuana leaves to call attention to the fact that he is a pothead but in the film Spicoli wears a Colt 45 t-shirt http://www.80sreborn.com/images/fast-times-4.jpg . Colt 45 is a trademark so showing that on Family Guy might have been a problem.
Hall & OatesWhen Lois was a "Plaster Caster" in the early '80's she made a sculpture of Daryl Hall's manhood but not John Oates.'

Slow RideClassic song by Foghat. It's rockin out from the turntable when the Evil Monkey is lounging and rollin' reefer.
