The scene in which the youngest daughter participates in a school science fair but realizes her project is heavily out-shined by her classmates' science fair exhibits is an almost direct, dialogue-for-dialogue homage to a scene in The Cosby Show (1984) episode Vanessa's New Class (1985) in which the daughter Vanessa (played by Tempestt Bledsoe) participates in a school science fair but realizes that her minimal effort on her project is heavily lacking compared to her classmates' projects.
