* JaywalkingWillRuinYourLife: Burns manages to get Mona tossed in jail for life thanks to a Federal law that says signing up national park guest books with fake names (apparently regardless of whether or not the person signing up actually has something to hide and was otherwise respectful) is an instant-jail offense (and he managed to find out Mona went to many parks while she was on the lam). Homer lampshades how much of a technicality this is.

* ContrivedCoincidence: Mona arranges a meeting with Homer by planting a coded message in a newspaper article she thinks will catch his eye (about the world's biggest pizza). As it happens, he only stumbles upon it at all because he's recently become obsessed with winning a t-shirt from a local TV news feature that gives prizes for catching newspaper errors, causing him to spend hours combing through news articles. He finds the message on the very night he's supposed to meet with the sender.
