Welcome to the only appearance of the Hoxha family.
As this week is light on trivia (Adil's mother is another one-time appearance), I did my best to translate the sign shown behind them at this Albanian airport*.
After several attempts at deciphering a blurry SD image, I think it says "Mir...

A single appearance character who has no problem with throwing a child.
I tell you, Bart's air steward grandfather would never treat him like this. Or maybe he would. We haven't gotten to him yet.
This post is part of my "Every Simpsons Character Ever" series. For a list of my rules in...

Agnes is by far the most recognisable character introduced in this episode, as her son "Spanky" - sorry, Principal Skinner - shows her around the school.
Notably she is portrayed as a sweet gentle old woman here, far from the cold, mean monster we know and love today. I'd say it's likely that it...

Bart has a cute little frog at the start of this episode, which is never names or mentioned again.
I'm not really sure what the point of the frog is within the scene, but he's pretty cute.
I promise the rest of the episode is filled with characters taller than a few inches.

"I like to play with YOU! I like to play with YOU!"
I don't know, maybe this is a cheat for the first entry of this episode, but the line read of this lil' doll is so burned into my brain that I felt like I had to include him.
I think it's safe to say that this is not the same Krusty doll ...

Another episode in the bag! As I write these it's getting very apparent to me that we are nearing the end of season 1, which is fantastic and exciting and terrifying. What if I run out of characters quicker than expected? At this rate, I can assume we'll be done with season 34 by 2025.
The nature of the viral photo being passed around a lot in this episode means we met a lot of generic no...

The FINAL character of "Homer's Night Out" is the gentleman conversing with Suzie's dad:
He opens his wallet and says "here's mine", but it is left unclear whether the "mine" he is referring to is his daughter or his wallet. Maybe he's just really proud of his wallet. Anyway he never shows up ag...

All we can ascertain about this gentleman is that he has a picture of his daughter Suzie in his wallet.
He is another one-timer, but in the interest of a full investigation, I looked to see if any Suzies show up later that this man could *theoretically* be the parent of.

It's somewhat wholesome to see Burns and Smithers on a double date, if you ignore how closeted poor Waylon is at this point:
They look like they're having fun at least. Well, the boys are. The girls look bored our of their mind. Burns asks Homer for dating advice earlier in the episode and I'd s...

This gentleman recognises Homer on stage from the viral photo.
This leads to much excitement within the Sapphire Lounge, and perhaps allows Homer to narrowly avoid retribution from the club's security. Good for him!
Sadly, as far as I can tell, he is so insignificant as to not even get a p...

A new outfit and a new stage name for Shauna, worth drawing because it's unique and interesting.

Three quick scenes in this episode means three quick appearances by nobody characters. This is number two!

We're approaching the end of the episode now (this guy appears 17 minutes and 18 seconds into the episode) but due to the nature of several strip club visits, we are far from the end of new characters.

The kid who Homer affectionately calls "Pint-size" sings to Homer in the Kwik-E-Mart.
The song he sings has a few names: "Arabian Riff", "The Streets of Cairo" or "The Poor Little Country Maid", and despite being commonly used as a signifier of the middle-east or Egypt, it will probably not surp...

This gentleman recognises Homer in the Kwik-E-Mart, and says "Hey hey" to him, clearly referencing the popular children's entertainer Krusty the Clown.
The only other appearance from him I can find is from season 2's "Bart Gets Hit By A Car".

I forgot to include it in the image, but this gentleman's name is "Al," he says it himself in this scene.
It is rumoured his forehead can be seen from space.
In "Simpson and Delilah" we can see he is in an executive position at the power plant:
