Finally, another Simpsons reaction on your channel after nearly a year. This episode is the first appearance of Nelson Muntz and his only appearance in Season 1.
The slapping joke is a reference to Patton from WWII. He was stripped of command over a "slapping" incident involving some soldiers suffering from shellshock. Or in his view cowards. No one knows for sure but the general assumption is that by "slapping" what they really meant is Patton legitimately threatened to have them executed on the spot. The guy was crazy.
