Instantly Proven Wrong: After Homer's videotape of the alien is broadcast, Lisa thinks the town won't be won over by three seconds of videotape. Cue the doorbell ringing and Homer finding half the town on his lawn.The Squeaky-Voiced Teen's ending comment to "Keep watching the skis... uh, skies," is a reference to the final line of dialogue from the 1951 film The Thing from Another World. Milhouse plays a Kevin Costner's Waterworld arcade game, in which he needs to insert forty quarters for each credit played (losing his first credit after taking a few steps), a reference to the budget overrun on Kevin Costner's 1995 film Waterworld. [2] According to the DVD commentary, they just left the microphone on and let Duchovny ramble about whatever he wanted. He went on for two hours before he ran out of steam. In addition to the appearances of Mulder and Scully, the episode features several other references to The X-Files.

It is implied in the episode " Million_Dollar_Maybe", that Burns may used to be a German soldier in World War 2, when he says "Wait, I'm shooting AT nazis? That's not the way I remember it." The rest of the family do not believe Homer's story, and his attempts to report the alien sighting to the police are dismissed by Chief Wiggum. Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully of the FBI hear of the sighting and go to investigate. After receiving no results from their psychological tests of him, Homer fails to provide any proof that he actually saw an alien. Homer is ridiculed by most of the neighborhood; even Marge refuses to believe in his claims, but Bart admits that he believes Homer. The next Friday night, the pair camp out in the forest. The alien arrives and promises peace, but Homer scares it away when he accidentally steps on their campfire and screams in pain. Bart captures the entire incident on tape. In " When Flanders Failed", it is revealed that Mr. Burns is left-handed. However, he can sometimes be seen writing with his right hand. He could possibly be ambidextrous (can use both hands for tasks).

Originally, they planned to just leave it a mystery, but ultimately decided to make the alien Mr Burns following longevity treatment.

Mr. Burns is a member of various organizations. In his early years, while he was a college student at Yale University, he was a member of the Skull and Bones society. During World War II, Burns became a member of the Flying Hellfish squad, a group of soldiers who entered into a tontine regarding the ownership of German artwork. Burns was a member of the Stonecutters until it disbanded, at which time he joined the secret society that succeeded it: The Ancient Mystic Society of No Homers (One source of dislike of Burns for the "Stonecutters" is that despite his wealth and greed, he is outranked by Lenny). He is currently the head of the Springfield Republican Party and once headed a short-lived religion. He is also a member of the "Excludes Club", the Springfield Golf and Country Club, and the National Rifle Association. He holds a chair (a demonic throne with snarling dogs chained to it) at Springfield University and controls an anti-democratic paramilitary force in Latin America. Donkey Kong makes an appearance at the Noiseland Arcade, which turns out to be a bust. He ends up throwing a barrel at the Wise Guy, complete with sound effects. That night, Homer's expressing his annoyance with no one believing his story and the subsequent ridicule to Marge, who ultimately admits she doesn't believe him either. She begs him to just leave it be, but Homer refuses to share a bed with someone who thinks he's crazy. He's joined downstairs in the kitchen by Bart who reveals he believes Homer's story, and the two hatch a plan to return to the woods the following Friday to try to capture the alien on film.

Homer: I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to speed around the city, keeping its speed over fifty, and if its speed dropped, the bus would explode! I think it was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

The Squeaky-Voiced Teen closes the episode by reminding the viewers to "keep watching the skis! I mean skies." Mr. Burns' great-great-grandmother's sister-in-law's brother's fourth great-grandson is Homer Simpson. In “The Springfield Files,” a famous episode of “The Simpsons,” Bart’s family receives a visit from “The X-Files” protagonists. For those who think Mulder and Scully have already experienced every possible bizarre situation, just wait until the agents meet the strange, the sinister, the enigmatic Homer Simpson.

Mr. Burns is also Lord Montymort, who is based on Lord Voldemort from the Harry Potter book and film series. He captures young wizards and witches to takes their powers away. After becoming a CEO with a power tie and a bonsai tree, Burns got a book contract to write the business advice guide called The Rungs of Ruthlessness. [7] Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Not in the actual episode, but the original script ended with the alien's true identity unrevealed, implying Homer really did encounter one. Homer was persistent, however, and returned to the scene the next Friday with Bart and a video camera. This time, the alien said "I bring you peace", and Homer tried to talk to it, but he stepped into his campfire and started screaming, which frightened the alien away. Fortunately, Bart recorded the whole encounter on video, including several seconds of footage showing the alien. The footage aired on Channel 6 News, and the following Friday, the townspeople turned out at the scene in force, hoping for a glimpse of the alien. When it appeared again, saying "I bring you love", they advanced on the alien and were about to beat it up when Lisa hollered at them to wait. Lisa shone a flashlight on the alien's face, revealing that it was actually Mr. Burns. Homer is given a polygraph test to see if his alien sighting is true. The polygraph machine explodes when Homer just answers "yes" to Scully asking him if he understands.
