1. The Simpsons.
Copy !req
2. Those stars and stripes.
Copy !req
3. Those crazy stripes.
Copy !req
4. Let's end together.
Copy !req
5. Yay!
Copy !req
6. You'll have to do a lot better than that,
Copy !req
7. especially since we've just been accepted
Copy !req
8. in the school band competition
at the county fair!
Copy !req
9. I'm sorry. I mean the state fair.
Copy !req
10. I hate to be a killjoy,
Copy !req
11. but do you really think we can win
Copy !req
12. playing "Stars and Stripes Forever"?
Copy !req
13. It's so beginner band
Copy !req
14. and we're advanced beginner band.
Copy !req
15. - This is band?
- Very well, Lisa.
Copy !req
16. What rousing Sousa march
would you have us play?
Copy !req
17. Well, I thought maybe,
for once, we could play a song
Copy !req
18. that wasn't written by Sousa.
Copy !req
19. You mean something just arranged by Sousa?
Copy !req
20. No. Something fresh and bold.
Copy !req
21. Well, darling, you have lost me.
Copy !req
22. How about something cool,
like "Camptown Races"?
Copy !req
23. Hey, Grandpa, the Civil War's over.
Copy !req
24. How about "Little Brown Jug"?
Copy !req
25. Ya-ha-ha, hee-hee-hee.
Copy !req
26. Little brown jug, how I love thee.
Copy !req
27. Oh! Stop with your devil music.
Copy !req
28. Lisa, this is all your fault.
Copy !req
29. Hey, the blond broad's got a point.
Copy !req
30. We need something
with a little ring-a-ding-ding.
Copy !req
31. Take your arm off me.
Copy !req
32. Ooh! This kitten's got claws.
Copy !req
33. OK, we'll do a different song.
Copy !req
34. Who cares? They all end up
sounding the same anyway.
Copy !req
35. What a fruit fly.
Copy !req
36. Vietnam veteran.
Copy !req
37. Do you have a military ID?
Copy !req
38. ID? Man, Charlie didn't ask for ID
Copy !req
39. when I fought at La Choy and Chun King.
Copy !req
40. I saw my best friend's head
explode at Margaret Cho.
Copy !req
41. Homer, give him the 50 cents.
Copy !req
42. Why should I?
Copy !req
43. Did my country give me a parade?
Copy !req
44. No, man! They spat at me and...
Copy !req
45. - Just go.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
46. This closes the saddest chapter
in American history.
Copy !req
47. I can't wait to do some shopping.
Copy !req
48. Look at all these innovative products.
Copy !req
49. Miracle shears.
Copy !req
50. The drain bugger!
Copy !req
51. Folks, how often have you
opened your morning paper
Copy !req
52. only to have the rubber band fly off
Copy !req
53. and hit you right in the eye?
Copy !req
54. Never, but it's my number one concern.
Copy !req
55. Well, with the Omnigogs system
Copy !req
56. those worries are a thing of the past.
Copy !req
57. I'm all right, folks,
Copy !req
58. thanks to my Omnigogs!
Copy !req
59. A little late for Lenny.
Copy !req
60. Who are those pleasant old men?
Copy !req
61. It's B.T.O.
Copy !req
62. They're Canada's answer to E.L.P.
Copy !req
63. Their big hit was "T.C.B."
Copy !req
64. That's how we talked in the '70s.
Copy !req
65. We didn't have a moment to spare.
Copy !req
66. Hello, Springfield!
Copy !req
67. We're going to play
all your old favorites.
Copy !req
68. But first, we'd like to dip
into our new CD.
Copy !req
69. "Takin' Care Of Business"!
Copy !req
70. Don't worry, sir. We'll get to that one.
Copy !req
71. No talking! No new crap!
Copy !req
72. "Takin' Care Of Business" now!
Copy !req
73. You get up every morning.
Copy !req
74. From the alarm clock's warning.
Copy !req
75. Take the 8:15 into the city...
Copy !req
76. Get to the working overtime part!
Copy !req
77. - Unbelievable.
- Dumb-ass.
Copy !req
78. Working overtime...
Copy !req
79. Work out!
Copy !req
80. Baby, you ain't seen.
Copy !req
81. Nothing yet.
Copy !req
82. Play "Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet"!
Copy !req
83. We just did!
Copy !req
84. Whatever!
Copy !req
85. Be sure to stick around
Copy !req
86. for the battle
of the elementary school bands.
Copy !req
87. Homer, Lisa's in that.
Copy !req
88. I stand by my disappointed groan.
Copy !req
89. Check out Lisa. She's a sax machine.
Copy !req
90. Makes me think I should have
done something with my life.
Copy !req
91. Oh, well.
Copy !req
92. Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Copy !req
93. This is what comptrolling is all about.
Copy !req
94. Anybody got a building permit?
Copy !req
95. 'Cause we nailed it!
Copy !req
96. Way to blow, Lis!
Copy !req
97. That is the best version
of "Living in America"
Copy !req
98. I've ever heard.
Copy !req
99. Third best for me.
Copy !req
100. Well, unless there's another band
Copy !req
101. I think we have a winner.
Copy !req
102. Oh, wait.
Copy !req
103. There is another band... from Ogdenville.
Copy !req
104. Uh, please welcome the Ogdenville band.
Copy !req
105. "Stars and Stripes Forever"?
Copy !req
106. Oh, man. They're toast.
Copy !req
107. Oh! Glow Sticks?
Copy !req
108. But visual aids are against the rules.
Copy !req
109. Whoo, baby!
Copy !req
110. Well, it's not going to be easy
Copy !req
111. to pick a winner, but...
Copy !req
112. Ogdenville! Ogdenville!
Copy !req
113. But I think one school red,
white and blue us all away!
Copy !req
114. And the winner is... Ogdenville!
Copy !req
115. I hope you enjoy your plaque, cheater.
Copy !req
116. Well, I was going to give you
Copy !req
117. the good sportsmanship award,
Copy !req
118. but now I'm just going to be sick.
Copy !req
119. I can't believe those idiot judges
Copy !req
120. were impressed by glowing plastic tubes.
Copy !req
121. Look, Lisa!
Copy !req
122. It glows! Ooh.
Copy !req
123. Let's forget about the band contest
Copy !req
124. and just have fun at the state fair.
Copy !req
125. You mean state unfair.
Copy !req
126. Yeah, right, that's what I meant, Lisa.
Copy !req
127. - State unfair.
- Zing!
Copy !req
128. See, Marge?
Copy !req
129. I told you they could deep fry my shirt.
Copy !req
130. I didn't say they couldn't.
I said you shouldn't.
Copy !req
131. Step right up and see Duncan,
Copy !req
132. the Incredible Diving Horse!
Copy !req
133. I wish people would stop
telling me to step right up.
Copy !req
134. Looks like he's ready to dive, folks!
Copy !req
135. Another incredible performance
Copy !req
136. by this water-loving wonder horse!
Copy !req
137. What's that, Duncan?
Copy !req
138. You say you want to dive again?
Copy !req
139. Well...
Copy !req
140. This is clearly a case of animal cruelty.
Copy !req
141. Uh, do you have a permit for that?
Copy !req
142. No problem, sir. It's in my car.
Copy !req
143. You got to stop being so trusting, Chief.
Copy !req
144. I'd rather let 1,000 guilty men go free
Copy !req
145. than chase after them.
Copy !req
146. All right, show's over, folks.
Copy !req
147. I'm afraid this horse is going
Copy !req
148. to the dog food factory.
Copy !req
149. Good luck getting a horse to eat dog food.
Copy !req
150. You can't do that to Duncan.
Copy !req
151. It's not his fault
that his owner was a sleaze.
Copy !req
152. Look, I just want the horse
Copy !req
153. to have a good home or be food.
Copy !req
154. If you want to take him, fine with me.
Copy !req
155. Should the Simpsons get a horse?
Copy !req
156. Excuse me, but I believe
Copy !req
157. this family already had a horse
Copy !req
158. and the expense forced Homer
to work at the Kwik-E-Mart
Copy !req
159. with hilarious consequences.
Copy !req
160. Anybody care what this guy thinks?
Copy !req
161. No!
Copy !req
162. Tunnel!
Copy !req
163. Oh, my. Oh.
Copy !req
164. It's going to cost us $500
a week to keep Duncan.
Copy !req
165. But he'll bring us joy, Marge...
Copy !req
166. Unlike all your silly gewgaws.
Copy !req
167. At least you don't have to feed
Copy !req
168. any of the stuff I bought at the fair...
Copy !req
169. Well, except the mop.
Copy !req
170. Marge, your pro-mop, anti-horse agenda
Copy !req
171. has been clear for some time.
Copy !req
172. But don't worry, I have a way
for Duncan to earn his keep.
Copy !req
173. Mm, that's terrific, Duncan.
Copy !req
174. You're 10 for 10.
Copy !req
175. Now let's look in the rule book
Copy !req
176. and see if horses can play in the NFL.
Copy !req
177. He's a diving horse...
Copy !req
178. Maybe he could dive for pearls.
Copy !req
179. Pearls, eh?
Copy !req
180. Breakfast is served.
Copy !req
181. Hey, Dad?
Copy !req
182. This horse is pretty fast.
Copy !req
183. Maybe we can race him.
Copy !req
184. Racehorse, eh?
Copy !req
185. Dear Mr. President...
Copy !req
186. What are you doing, Lisa?
Copy !req
187. Writing a letter to President Clinton
Copy !req
188. about that travesty of a band contest.
Copy !req
189. As a fellow sax player,
I'm sure he'll be outraged.
Copy !req
190. Honey, don't get obsessed with that.
Copy !req
191. Focus on the good things...
Copy !req
192. Like this fire extinguisher
I got at the fair...
Copy !req
193. Mom, really it's...
Hey, what are you doing?
Copy !req
194. It's the only fire extinguisher
Copy !req
195. endorsed by both Lynda Carter
and George Foreman.
Copy !req
196. I wonder what would happen
if they had a baby?
Copy !req
197. Dad, if we're going to race Duncan
Copy !req
198. shouldn't we hire a professional trainer?
Copy !req
199. Son, I learned everything I needed to know
Copy !req
200. from The Horse Whisperer.
Copy !req
201. Step one... seduce a lonely housewife.
Copy !req
202. Ma'am.
Copy !req
203. Now for the actual horse whispering.
Copy !req
204. When the race starts, run really fast.
Copy !req
205. Aw, come on! Come on!
There's got to a winner
Copy !req
206. on this floor somewhere.
Copy !req
207. Bingo!
Copy !req
208. Hey, let go, you lousy, stinkin'...
Copy !req
209. What?
Copy !req
210. You're...
Copy !req
211. beau-tee-full.
Copy !req
212. Uh-oh. This is a serious medical problem.
Copy !req
213. Uh, I got to go.
Copy !req
214. Just once I'd like to ride clockwise.
Copy !req
215. Really? I thought I was the only one.
Copy !req
216. Champion horse coming through.
Copy !req
217. What the...
Copy !req
218. Good horse. Here's one taco
Copy !req
219. and you'll get another when you win.
Copy !req
220. Hey, where do you get those
metal dealies for his feet?
Copy !req
221. You mean horseshoes?
Copy !req
222. Hey, what's with the attitude?
I just want some dealies.
Copy !req
223. You really think that horse can
run a mile and a half?
Copy !req
224. He ran all the way here.
Copy !req
225. You can do it, Duncan.
Copy !req
226. I don't care if your odds are...
Copy !req
227. five million to one? Oh...
Copy !req
228. Don't worry, boy.
Copy !req
229. I'll love you even if you don't win.
Copy !req
230. That horse better win
Copy !req
231. or we're taking a trip to the glue factory
Copy !req
232. and he won't get to come.
Copy !req
233. Yeah, that's a great tour,
Copy !req
234. but you can't see it all in one day.
Copy !req
235. Hey, be quiet.
Copy !req
236. And away they go!
Copy !req
237. - Go, Duncan!
- Go, number five!
Copy !req
238. - Go number five!
- Do it for Lenny!
Copy !req
239. It's Chock Full o' Drugs,
Copy !req
240. followed closely by Stalker
Copy !req
241. with Old Levis fading fast.
Copy !req
242. What's this?
Copy !req
243. Number five, Duncan,
Copy !req
244. the horse no one expected to do anything
Copy !req
245. isn't doing anything!
Copy !req
246. He hasn't even left the starting gate!
Copy !req
247. Come on, boy. I know you're scared,
Copy !req
248. but you can do this.
Copy !req
249. I believe in you!
Copy !req
250. Would you look at this?
Copy !req
251. The straggler, Duncan,
Copy !req
252. has exploded out of the gate
Copy !req
253. and is making a big move!
Copy !req
254. He's showing more heart
than any horse I've ever seen!
Copy !req
255. What a shame the race is already over.
Copy !req
256. Cheer up, son.
Copy !req
257. I thought you looked
Copy !req
258. damn good out there.
Copy !req
259. Oh, wait.
Copy !req
260. You were number five?
Copy !req
261. Ew! You st...
Copy !req
262. Damn good.
Copy !req
263. Duncan's really fast, Dad.
Copy !req
264. He was just intimidated
by those other horses.
Copy !req
265. Well, he's not going
to be intimidated anymore.
Copy !req
266. We're going to toughen him up.
Copy !req
267. Give him a new bad-ass attitude.
Copy !req
268. All those other horses will be shaking
Copy !req
269. in their horse dealies.
Copy !req
270. Hello. I'd like to speak
to President Clinton, please.
Copy !req
271. I wrote to him, and he never wrote back.
Copy !req
272. No, I don't want Al Gore.
Copy !req
273. Lisa, you've got to learn
that life isn't always fair.
Copy !req
274. Try to channel your disappointment
Copy !req
275. into something creative
Copy !req
276. like a sampler.
Copy !req
277. Is that Duncan?
Copy !req
278. Not anymore.
Copy !req
279. Ladies, say hello to...
Copy !req
280. Furious D?
Copy !req
281. He's the bad boy of racing.
Copy !req
282. He's got attitude and bad-itude.
Copy !req
283. So show him some latitude
Copy !req
284. and you'll win his gratitude.
Copy !req
285. Only in America.
Copy !req
286. You used my bracelet for a nose ring!
Copy !req
287. Possessions are fleeting.
Copy !req
288. Why, look at that disgraceful beast.
Copy !req
289. Good lord.
Copy !req
290. What has become of the sport of kings?
Copy !req
291. Get bent.
Copy !req
292. That's my third monocle this week.
Copy !req
293. I simply must stop being so horrified.
Copy !req
294. So many horses.
Copy !req
295. I don't know who to vote for.
Copy !req
296. Can't I just bet that all the horses
Copy !req
297. will have a fun time?
Copy !req
298. Yeah, I think you want that line.
Copy !req
299. Whoa. He looks scary.
Copy !req
300. Yeah, I'm shaking in my silks.
Copy !req
301. Don't listen to them, D. Just remember,
Copy !req
302. you've got a new persona.
Copy !req
303. A new per-so-na.
Copy !req
304. And away they go.
Copy !req
305. OK, Lisa, I've got
Furious D across the board
Copy !req
306. boxed with the three and the eight
Copy !req
307. and wheeled up and down.
Copy !req
308. Mom, I think you might be
developing a gambling problem.
Copy !req
309. Hey, I'm watching you.
Copy !req
310. They're tightly bunched
Copy !req
311. as they round the far turn.
Copy !req
312. Wait a minute.
Copy !req
313. Hang on to your monocles
Copy !req
314. 'cause Furious D
Copy !req
315. is closing like a horse possessed.
Copy !req
316. That's it, D. Don't let anyone
push you around.
Copy !req
317. Be as bad as you want to be.
Copy !req
318. And the winner... Furious D.
Copy !req
319. Oh, man, that horse
don't take no guff from nobody.
Copy !req
320. - Guff?
- I mean, sh...
Copy !req
321. Whoo-hoo!
Copy !req
322. In your little faces!
Copy !req
323. He's going the distance.
Copy !req
324. He's going for speed.
Copy !req
325. Because he's racing and pacing.
Copy !req
326. And plotting the course.
Copy !req
327. He's fighting and biting.
Copy !req
328. And riding on his horse.
Copy !req
329. He's going the distance.
Copy !req
330. Man, I got more trophies
Copy !req
331. than Wayne Gretzky and the Pope combined.
Copy !req
332. You're quite a trainer, Mr. Simpson.
Copy !req
333. Care to join us for a beer
in the jockey's lounge?
Copy !req
334. I've been waiting
all my life to hear that.
Copy !req
335. Hey, where'd you go?
Copy !req
336. Little man?
Copy !req
337. What happened?
Copy !req
338. What is this place?
Copy !req
339. Welcome to the secret land of the jockeys.
Copy !req
340. Why are you talking like that?
Copy !req
341. These are our real voices.
Copy !req
342. We only talk like this
on your surface world.
Copy !req
343. But you're respected athletes.
Copy !req
344. You own car dealerships
and marry beauty queens.
Copy !req
345. All a lie.
Copy !req
346. What woman would marry us?
Copy !req
347. We're freaks.
Copy !req
348. Freaks... Freaks... Freaks...
Copy !req
349. We are the jockeys jockeys are we.
Copy !req
350. We live underground
in a fiberglass tree.
Copy !req
351. 'Tween earth and hell we reign supreme.
Copy !req
352. On toadstool thrones
by a chocolate stream.
Copy !req
353. But all is not well in jockey town.
Copy !req
354. Your renegade horse is making us frown.
Copy !req
355. What do you want me to do?
Copy !req
356. Your horse must lose.
Copy !req
357. My horse must lose?
Copy !req
358. No win... No show... No place...
Copy !req
359. Just lose the stinkin' race.
Copy !req
360. And what if I refuse to lose?
Copy !req
361. We'll eat your brain.
Copy !req
362. My horse must lose!
Copy !req
363. Did that really happen
Copy !req
364. or was it just a wonderful dream?
Copy !req
365. No dream. Lose the race, fat boy.
Copy !req
366. Son, don't ask why
Copy !req
367. but you have to lose the big race.
Copy !req
368. You want me to lose the Springfield Derby?
Copy !req
369. But you always taught me
that winning was everything.
Copy !req
370. Oh, it is, it is,
Copy !req
371. but we've been pushing
that poor horse too hard.
Copy !req
372. Maybe, but, if Duncan wins the derby
Copy !req
373. he can spend the rest
of his days as a stud.
Copy !req
374. Well, it is a good life, believe me...
Copy !req
375. All right. We'll give it a shot.
Copy !req
376. I'll deal with those murderous trolls.
Copy !req
377. I mean...
Copy !req
378. I'll deal with those murderous trolls.
Copy !req
379. Welcome
to the Springfield Derby...
Copy !req
380. The fifth and penultimate duel
of racing's triple crown.
Copy !req
381. Good luck today, Bill.
Copy !req
382. And away they go.
Copy !req
383. Furious D takes the early lead.
Copy !req
384. What a shameful display
Copy !req
385. by these tiny hotheads.
Copy !req
386. Let's try to remember
the good little people
Copy !req
387. like James Madison
or Oscar-winner Linda Hunt.
Copy !req
388. Ow! Ack! Ow!
Copy !req
389. Oh, I, uh... what's going on?
Copy !req
390. Could it be? In a bizarre twist,
Copy !req
391. a horse is abusing a jockey.
Copy !req
392. Might this be the start of
Copy !req
393. a terrifying Planet of the Horses?
Copy !req
394. In this announcer's opinion,
almost certainly yes,
Copy !req
395. and away I go.
Copy !req
396. Go, son!
Copy !req
397. Do it for the normals!
Copy !req
398. I can't stress enough how easy it was
Copy !req
399. to win this prestigious race
and furthermore...
Copy !req
400. Hollywood is leading our kids
down a moral sewer. Got to go.
Copy !req
401. You must die!
Copy !req
402. Hey, need any help, Homer?
Copy !req
403. No, we're cool.
Copy !req
404. Marge, now!
Copy !req
405. Son, go get me a trash bag.
Copy !req
406. - Hey!
- Let us out!
Copy !req
407. - Let me out of here!
- Please!
Copy !req
408. We'll give you gold!
Copy !req
