* [[Actor Allusion]]: Ferris hacks into the school's system from his computer to change the amount of absences he's had. [[War Games|That's not the first time Broderick hacked into his school's system.]]

But the fact is that they're both played by actors who both ''are'' Jewish and "look" ''very'' Jewish (until Jennifer Grey got her nose job, of course). And then there's the name "Bueller," which doesn't sound particularly goyish.
