In the episode, Poison Lenny says the following, “But I'm not a villain. I'm a transvestite.”


* CrossesTheLineTwice: During the "Batman Parody", Bartman beats up Poison Lenny who reveals that they're a trans person and not a supervillain. Bartman doesn't care and throws them at an electrified gate. Chief Wiggum appears to handle the rest which involves ''shooting'' Poison Lenny who's already on the ground [[NoKillLikeOverkill presumably dead]].

* UnintentionallySympathetic: The Count of the first story. Whilst Marge's story, and by extension the episode, intends to tell how the Count's quest for revenge was wrong and just makes him lose everything, we see how his life was stolen from him by a petty jealous man and how his ex-wife mourned over ''his'' death rather than accept that the man she remarried was responsible for separating her from the man she loved (she never even finds out that Moe was the one who framed him, making him come off as a KarmaHoudini on her part). She then practically chews him out without any sympathy for what he went through and abandons him. Hell, he never would have sought revenge to begin with if Moe hadn't cruelly wronged him. It's not hard to see how the Count can be the continuous victim of the story with how everyone turns their backs on him.

Added DiffLines:

* AccidentalInnuendo: "Bartman Begins" has Ned Flanders appear as a villain called The Diddler, which is likely intended as a reference to the Batman villain The Riddler and a play on Flanders' habit of saying "diddly" between every other word, but sounds unintentionally filthy due to the word "diddle" frequently being used to refer to molestation.

* HilariousInHindsight: One of the ''Star Wars'' characters mentioned during the InMemoriam list at the end is "Darth Maul". A few years later, ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' would reveal that Maul actually survived the events in ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'', in turn making him an odd mention. It later either gained or [[HarsherInHindsight lost]] some of this after Maul gets KilledOffForReal in ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels''.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Did Bart tell his story straight-up ''glorifying'' revenge without thinking Homer would make up with Rich Texan, or was he using ReversePsychology?
