1. The Simpsons.
Copy !req
2. You're watching PBS.
Copy !req
3. You're watching PBS?
Copy !req
4. Hey, I'm as surprised as you,
Copy !req
5. but I've stumbled upon
the most delicious British sitcom.
Copy !req
6. Do shut up?
Copy !req
7. It's about a hard-drinking
Copy !req
8. yet loving family of soccer hooligans.
Copy !req
9. If they're not having a go with a bird,
Copy !req
10. they're having a row with a wanker.
Copy !req
11. Cheeky.
Copy !req
12. A no feelings.
Copy !req
13. A no feelings...
Copy !req
14. Jolly sodding Xmas, Major.
Copy !req
15. Choke on it!
Copy !req
16. Ohh, crikey!
Copy !req
17. You gave me a smash
on the noggin last year.
Copy !req
18. Not in my parlor, you don't!
Copy !req
19. - Me eye!
- I'm scalded, I am!
Copy !req
20. The mother's the voice of reason.
Copy !req
21. Here come the cricket bats.
Copy !req
22. You don't have the cobbles.
Copy !req
23. Classic.
Copy !req
24. Not hard to see why it's.
Copy !req
25. England's longest-running series.
Copy !req
26. And, today, we're showing
all seven episodes.
Copy !req
27. Hey, what the hell's going on?
Copy !req
28. If you like great PBS programs
Copy !req
29. like Do Shut Up and Shut Your Gob,
Copy !req
30. you'll want to support our pledge drive.
Copy !req
31. Pledge drive? Ugh!
Copy !req
32. That's right, Betty White.
Copy !req
33. Absolutely.
Copy !req
34. If you watch even one second
of PBS and don't contribute,
Copy !req
35. you are a thief.
Copy !req
36. A common thief.
Copy !req
37. OK, take it easy, Betty.
Copy !req
38. Sorry, but these thieves
make me so damn mad.
Copy !req
39. You know who you are.
Thieves!
Copy !req
40. You're mad? Where's my show?
Copy !req
41. And now it's time to go back
to Do Shut Up.
Copy !req
42. - Finally.
- But first...
Copy !req
43. With your donation,
Copy !req
44. you'll receive this classic PBS tote bag.
Copy !req
45. Or this umbrella featuring a picture
Copy !req
46. of our classic tote bag.
Copy !req
47. And the next 20 callers will
get this album of museum noises.
Copy !req
48. Now your music room
can sound just like.
Copy !req
49. The Metropolitan Museum in New York.
Copy !req
50. Outstanding.
Copy !req
51. Why are you torturing me?
Copy !req
52. I'm just a man!
Copy !req
53. You know, I've worked with so many
Copy !req
54. legendary actors over the years
Copy !req
55. who could be counted
on to "phone it in."
Copy !req
56. Well, now, it's your turn
Copy !req
57. to phone it in... your pledge, that is.
Copy !req
58. Please. Please!
Copy !req
59. We're only $10,000 away
from returning to our show.
Copy !req
60. Well, why didn't you say so?
Copy !req
61. Yes, I'd like to pledge $10,000
Copy !req
62. to get them to shut up.
Copy !req
63. From anonymous.
Copy !req
64. Done and done.
Copy !req
65. Dad, you don't have $10,000.
Copy !req
66. Aw, how they going to find me?
Copy !req
67. Folks, we just reached
our goal of $10,700,
Copy !req
68. and it's all thanks
to one generous caller
Copy !req
69. who didn't leave his name.
Copy !req
70. But thanks to Insta-Trace,
Copy !req
71. we learned it's Homer Simpson,
of 742 Evergreen Terrace.
Copy !req
72. Oh, why did I
register with Insta-Trace?
Copy !req
73. Our pledge-enforcement van
will be at his house in moments.
Copy !req
74. Uh-oh. You got to help me, Bart.
Copy !req
75. That's it, boy. Go get help.
Copy !req
76. D-oh!
Copy !req
77. OK, Homer, don't panic.
Copy !req
78. Let me do the talking.
Copy !req
79. Here he is, folks...
Copy !req
80. The man who saved PBS...
Homer Simpson!
Copy !req
81. Mom, Dad's on PBS.
Copy !req
82. Hmm? They don't show
police chases, do they?
Copy !req
83. Um... It's an honor to give $10,000.
Copy !req
84. Especially now, when the rich
mosaic of cable programming
Copy !req
85. has made public television
so very, very unnecessary.
Copy !req
86. From now on, one of us always stays home.
Copy !req
87. Agreed.
Copy !req
88. Well said, Homer.
Copy !req
89. And now for the moment of generosity.
Copy !req
90. Will cash be OK?
Copy !req
91. Absolutely.
Copy !req
92. Well, then we got a problem.
The banks are closed by now.
Copy !req
93. It's 12:15.
Copy !req
94. Maybe your movie star banks
are open crazy hours,
Copy !req
95. but we in Springfield are simple folk.
Copy !req
96. We like our cars fast
and our banks closed.
Copy !req
97. OK, fine, we'll go down there,
Copy !req
98. but they're not going to be open.
Copy !req
99. Yeah... It's a real ghost town
in there.
Copy !req
100. Get in there.
Copy !req
101. I'd like to withdraw $10,000, please.
Copy !req
102. "You are on television.
Copy !req
103. Please play along."
Copy !req
104. Are you robbing me?
Copy !req
105. I'll pay you later.
Copy !req
106. Um, is there a problem, Mr. Simpson?
Copy !req
107. Uh. Why, no.
Copy !req
108. Everything is just...
Copy !req
109. Oh! I can't do it!
Copy !req
110. I can't kill a man.
Copy !req
111. You don't have the money,
do you, Homer?
Copy !req
112. And you thought you could
stab your problems away?
Copy !req
113. Silly goose. Why didn't you say so?
Copy !req
114. Get him, boys.
Copy !req
115. Ah! The hooligans!
Copy !req
116. Bash his eyes out!
Copy !req
117. It's a beautiful day
Copy !req
118. to kick your ass!
Copy !req
119. You die now!
Copy !req
120. Bingo!
Copy !req
121. Sanctuary!
Copy !req
122. Sanctuary!
Copy !req
123. Oh, why did I teach him that word?
Copy !req
124. Quick, you got
to hide me from PBS.
Copy !req
125. Their bloodthirsty pursuit
is made possible
Copy !req
126. by a grant from the Chubb Group.
Copy !req
127. Give us the money!
Copy !req
128. Elmo knows where you live.
Copy !req
129. Please help me. I'll do anything.
Copy !req
130. I'll light a candle.
Copy !req
131. I'll help with your next charity scam.
Copy !req
132. The word is "drive."
Copy !req
133. Sure, sure. Bob's your uncle.
Copy !req
134. Let's just get out of here.
Copy !req
135. Open the door!
Copy !req
136. Nothing to see here, people.
Copy !req
137. Just headed down to the dump
Copy !req
138. with these children's letters to god.
Copy !req
139. We'll send you someplace safe
Copy !req
140. till the heat dies down.
Copy !req
141. Great, but why am I on a plane?
Copy !req
142. Homer, how would you like
to be a missionary
Copy !req
143. in the South Pacific?
Copy !req
144. South Pacific? I didn't agree to...
Copy !req
145. Wa-Wait! I'm no missionary.
Copy !req
146. I don't even believe in Jebus.
Copy !req
147. Let me out!
Copy !req
148. Sorry. No can do.
Copy !req
149. Oh, save me, Jebus!
Copy !req
150. Well... little piece there.
Copy !req
151. So, you said on the phone
Copy !req
152. you had something to tell me?
Copy !req
153. Hmm? Oh, yes.
Copy !req
154. Your husband's in Microatia.
Copy !req
155. Microatia?
Copy !req
156. That's 12,000 miles away.
Copy !req
157. Uh-huh. He needed
to get away for a while.
Copy !req
158. I suggested missionary work,
and he jumped at the idea.
Copy !req
159. Missionary work?
Copy !req
160. He's dead, isn't he?
Copy !req
161. No, no. You can even keep
in touch with him
Copy !req
162. on this ham radio.
Copy !req
163. Jebus, where are you?
Copy !req
164. Homer to Jebus.
Copy !req
165. This doesn't look so bad.
Copy !req
166. Aw... Hi, there, little fella.
Copy !req
167. Welcome aboard, brother.
Copy !req
168. You must be Homer.
Copy !req
169. I'm Craig. That's Amy.
Copy !req
170. Well, see ya.
Copy !req
171. You're leaving?
Copy !req
172. Wait! What do I do here?
Copy !req
173. First of all, forget everything
Copy !req
174. you learned in missionary school.
Copy !req
175. Done.
Copy !req
176. We taught them some English
Copy !req
177. and ridiculed away most of their beliefs.
Copy !req
178. So, you can take it from there. Bye.
Copy !req
179. Don't let the bed bugs bite.
Copy !req
180. Seriously.
Copy !req
181. Me Homer.
Copy !req
182. Me hiding from PBS.
Copy !req
183. I am Qtoktok, and this is Ak.
Copy !req
184. Welcome, Reverend Homer.
Copy !req
185. We look forward to learning
about the Bible from you.
Copy !req
186. Here you go. Knock yourself out.
Copy !req
187. We cannot read.
Copy !req
188. Oh! Does the word "jet lag"
Copy !req
189. mean anything to you people?
Copy !req
190. Jet... lag.
Copy !req
191. Are you enjoying your ox testicle?
Copy !req
192. Oh, yes. Very much so.
Copy !req
193. Really?
Copy !req
194. You sure you wouldn't
rather have a coconut?
Copy !req
195. They're delicious.
Copy !req
196. No. I'm good.
Copy !req
197. Hey, what happened
to all the shirtless girls
Copy !req
198. you see in all
the geographical magazines?
Copy !req
199. Craig and Amy gave us the gift of shame.
Copy !req
200. All the naked women are on that island.
Copy !req
201. Yeah, anything
goes over there.
Copy !req
202. Bouncy, bouncy.
Copy !req
203. What was that?
Copy !req
204. Oh, we call that...
Copy !req
205. Sorry, fishbone in my throat.
Copy !req
206. We call that "earthquake."
Copy !req
207. Great. Now my
testicle's got ants on it.
Copy !req
208. Thanks, sweetheart.
Copy !req
209. Have a Bible.
Copy !req
210. My name's Homer.
Copy !req
211. What's yours?
Copy !req
212. I am Oovilu-Eeoo-Kitana-Wanjay.
Copy !req
213. I'm going to call you Lisa Junior.
Copy !req
214. So, what do you do
for fun around here?
Copy !req
215. Craig and Amy were digging a well.
Copy !req
216. Craig and Amy were
also building a chapel.
Copy !req
217. "Craig and Amy, Craig and Amy."
Copy !req
218. Why don't you just
marry Craig and Amy?
Copy !req
219. I told you we should have asked them.
Copy !req
220. Oh, how's the TV reception here?
Copy !req
221. Excellent or...?
Copy !req
222. T... V?
Copy !req
223. You don't have TV?
Copy !req
224. But what will I watch
while I'm sitting on the couch?
Copy !req
225. Cou-ouch?
Copy !req
226. No couches either?
Copy !req
227. Oh, man, I need a beer.
Copy !req
228. Oh, god! Oh, god!
Copy !req
229. Oh, god! Oh, god!
Copy !req
230. Oh, god, oh, god.
Copy !req
231. Oh, god, oh, god.
Copy !req
232. Nothing.
Copy !req
233. Here we go.
Copy !req
234. Ee... Yeah.
Copy !req
235. Homer?
Copy !req
236. Homer!
Copy !req
237. Huh? What the...?
Copy !req
238. Hello! Hello! Hello!
Copy !req
239. Is there anybody in there?
Copy !req
240. Marge!
Copy !req
241. Homer, are you all right?
Copy !req
242. I guess so, but that first month
was pretty rough.
Copy !req
243. You've only been gone two days.
Copy !req
244. Really? Without TV, it's hard to know
Copy !req
245. when one day begins and the other ends.
Copy !req
246. I miss you, Dad.
Copy !req
247. Mom won't let me read
Hagar the Horrible.
Copy !req
248. I just don't think it's funny.
Copy !req
249. Mmm, I can see the house
is falling apart without me
Copy !req
250. so here's the new order:
Copy !req
251. Bart, you're the man of the house.
Copy !req
252. Lisa, I'm promoting you to boy.
Copy !req
253. Maggie's now the brainy girl.
Copy !req
254. The toaster can fill in for Maggie.
Copy !req
255. And, Marge, you're a consultant.
Copy !req
256. - Dad?
- Yes, boy?
Copy !req
257. I just want to tell you
how proud I am that you're showing
Copy !req
258. an interest in your fellow man.
Copy !req
259. Really?
Copy !req
260. You're proud of me?
Copy !req
261. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
262. The whole town thinks
you're a real humanitarian.
Copy !req
263. Ned Flanders is green with envy.
Copy !req
264. Oh, really?
Copy !req
265. Well, if you'll excuse me,
I've got some civilization
Copy !req
266. to spread like butter
on the English muffin
Copy !req
267. that is these people, with all
their little nooks and crannies.
Copy !req
268. Dad, are you licking toads?
Copy !req
269. I'm not not licking toads.
Copy !req
270. Well, it's time to get to work.
Copy !req
271. Humanitarian Homer Simpson,
over and out.
Copy !req
272. Gather 'round, everyone.
Copy !req
273. I'm going to teach you about religion.
Copy !req
274. Oh, god,
oh, god, oh, god.
Copy !req
275. Please, please, that's not necessary.
Copy !req
276. I'm just God's messenger.
Copy !req
277. And lo,
what a wondrous message it is.
Copy !req
278. Like this,
from the book of... P-salms.
Copy !req
279. God will shatter the heads
of his enemies.
Copy !req
280. The hairy crown of those
who walk in their guilty ways.
Copy !req
281. That you may bathe
your feet in blood.
Copy !req
282. As true today as it was
when it was written.
Copy !req
283. Now, let's open it up
to some "Q" and "A."
Copy !req
284. Yes, Lisa Junior?
Copy !req
285. Amy said there are lots of religions.
Copy !req
286. Which is the right one?
Copy !req
287. Well, not the Unitarians.
Copy !req
288. If that's the one true faith,
I'll eat my hat.
Copy !req
289. Um, if the Lord is all powerful
Copy !req
290. why does he care whether
we worship him or not?
Copy !req
291. Ak just saying.
Copy !req
292. Well, Ak, it's because.
Copy !req
293. God is powerful but also insecure
Copy !req
294. like Barbra Streisand before James Brolin.
Copy !req
295. Oh, he's been a rock.
Copy !req
296. Oh, who am I kidding?
Copy !req
297. The truth is, I'm no missionary.
Copy !req
298. I work in a nuclear power plant.
Copy !req
299. Ooh, tell us all you know
about nuclear power.
Copy !req
300. Look, the point is, I want to help
Copy !req
301. but you don't need a well or a chapel
Copy !req
302. or an immunization center.
Copy !req
303. What you need is a little razzle-dazzle.
Copy !req
304. Qtoktok, are you thinking
what I'm thinking?
Copy !req
305. I am Ak.
Copy !req
306. Hey, that's great.
Copy !req
307. Now let's get to work.
Copy !req
308. Now, if the Flintstones
has taught us anything
Copy !req
309. it's that pelicans
can be used to mix cement.
Copy !req
310. Come on, little friend,
make a wisecrack.
Copy !req
311. You know, "it's a living,"
that sort of thing.
Copy !req
312. Oopsie.
Copy !req
313. - Hiya, Homer.
- That's not Homer.
Copy !req
314. It's got to be.
He's parking in Homer's space.
Copy !req
315. Well, time to get to work.
Copy !req
316. - Simpson.
- D-ah!
Copy !req
317. I've just reviewed your ten-year
Copy !req
318. performance record,
and it's appalling.
Copy !req
319. But I'm not Homer Simpson.
Copy !req
320. I think I know
who Homer Simpson is.
Copy !req
321. In ten short years,
Copy !req
322. you've caused 17 meltdowns.
Copy !req
323. - One is too many.
- Yeah, but...
Copy !req
324. You sold weapons-grade plutonium
Copy !req
325. - to the Iraqis with no markup.
- But...
Copy !req
326. And worst of all, you took
Copy !req
327. the Hamburglar's birthday off
Copy !req
328. last Monday and Wednesday.
Which is it?
Copy !req
329. Now my voice is giving out
Copy !req
330. so I'm just going to poke you
for the next hour or so.
Copy !req
331. Friends, when I came here
one month ago
Copy !req
332. this seemed like a strange
and frightening place.
Copy !req
333. But now I've learned to love
this island
Copy !req
334. as my second...
Copy !req
335. A plane!
Copy !req
336. Stop! Get me off this stinking rock!
Copy !req
337. Anyhow, I'm about to share
with you a modern-day miracle...
Copy !req
338. Something that has revitalized cities
Copy !req
339. from east St. Louis
to Biloxi, Mississippi...
Copy !req
340. The magic medicine of...
casino gambling!
Copy !req
341. "The Lucky Savage?"
Copy !req
342. It could be you.
Copy !req
343. Check it out.
Copy !req
344. There's Island Blackjack,
Copy !req
345. Island Craps,
Copy !req
346. Island Texas hold them...
Copy !req
347. But if like me...
Copy !req
348. You're mesmerized by pretty colors
Copy !req
349. and spinning things...
Copy !req
350. You'll prefer roulette.
Copy !req
351. Four sand dollars
on number six, please.
Copy !req
352. So, how you doing?
Copy !req
353. Staying out of trouble?
Copy !req
354. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
355. - Number six.
- Whoo-hoo!
Copy !req
356. D-oh!
Copy !req
357. Now, over here, I've brewed up
my favorite beverage, beer.
Copy !req
358. It's mostly Dristan and holy water,
but it does the job.
Copy !req
359. Mmm, ooga booga.
Copy !req
360. So, have fun, everybody.
Copy !req
361. And who knows?
Copy !req
362. Maybe you'll hit the jackpot,
get off this island
Copy !req
363. and spend the rest of your days
in a tropical paradise.
Copy !req
364. Homer, I'm so impressed.
Copy !req
365. Everything you're doing
sounds so rewarding.
Copy !req
366. Oh, you should have seen
their faces, honey.
Copy !req
367. Now I know how Bob Stupak feels.
Copy !req
368. Is everybody happy?
Copy !req
369. Oh, my god.
Copy !req
370. How can
Ace be one and 11?
Copy !req
371. What kind of god
would allow that?
Copy !req
372. Oh, what happened?
Copy !req
373. I gave you a glittering Vegas
Copy !req
374. and you turned it
into a skanky Atlantic city.
Copy !req
375. Your alcohol and inexpensive buffets
Copy !req
376. have corrupted us.
Copy !req
377. I don't even like macaroni salad
Copy !req
378. but look at me!
Copy !req
379. Please help us.
Copy !req
380. Our island has not been this damaged
Copy !req
381. since the A-bomb tests.
Copy !req
382. Guess who I saw
at the supermarket today.
Copy !req
383. Can it wait?
Copy !req
384. I just got off work.
Copy !req
385. I'm sorry, honey, I just thought...
Copy !req
386. Don't you do enough yakking
at the beauty parlor?
Copy !req
387. That's it, Bart.
Copy !req
388. You're taking this
man-of-the-house thing too far.
Copy !req
389. You're right. I'm sorry.
Tell you what...
Copy !req
390. Saturday night we'll go out for steaks,
Copy !req
391. just you and me.
Copy !req
392. A night out is a night out.
Copy !req
393. Why are you building chapel?
Copy !req
394. Because you're all terrible sinners.
Copy !req
395. Since when?
Copy !req
396. Since I got here.
Copy !req
397. Now, either grab a stone or go to hell.
Copy !req
398. Well, I may not know
much about God,
Copy !req
399. but I have to say, we built
a pretty nice cage for him.
Copy !req
400. These are from the children.
Copy !req
401. Thanks to you, they finally
have a place to pray.
Copy !req
402. And I'm in a gambling program
Copy !req
403. for real, this time.
Copy !req
404. How many times must we
Copy !req
405. go to church to avoid hell?
Copy !req
406. Every Sunday for the rest of our lives.
Copy !req
407. No, really?
Copy !req
408. Not bad, Lisa Junior.
Copy !req
409. But god's palace is

Copy !req
414. I'm the greatest missionary
Copy !req
415. of all time!
Copy !req
416. Oh, no. This looks like the end.
Copy !req

Copy !req
428. Please, call now.
Copy !req
