1. D'oh! (screams)
Copy !req
2. Give me a hand.
Copy !req
3. Our top story, the ozone hole
Copy !req
4. that devastated Brazil
last summer
Copy !req
5. is apparently wintering
in Springfield.
Copy !req
6. Whoo! Springfield rocks!
Copy !req
7. Residents are advised
to stay inside
Copy !req
8. unless you wear sunscreen
or are very, very hairy.
Copy !req
9. Experts recommend
a class-nine
Copy !req
10. or Robin Williams level
of hair coverage.
Copy !req
11. Help, somebody!
Copy !req
12. Oh!
Copy !req
13. Let me in, for the love of...
Copy !req
14. - (grunting)
- Are you OK?
Copy !req
15. I've been better.
Copy !req
16. Oh, I am so bored.
Copy !req
17. Oh, I can't wait till we're
teenagers. Then we'll be happy.
Copy !req
18. Well, we could play
Clam Traffic Jam
Copy !req
19. or The Game of County Seats.
Copy !req
20. Aw, the zoning disc is warped.
Copy !req
21. All right! Silly string!
Copy !req
22. Look, you're Milhouse.
Copy !req
23. Who wets their bed now,
Milhouse?
Copy !req
24. Ugh. I'll be in my room.
Copy !req
25. There's got to be
something fun
Copy !req
26. in my parents' closet.
Copy !req
27. Want to dress up like ladies?
Copy !req
28. Uh, wouldn't that make us
kind of... fruity?
Copy !req
29. What's the matter?
Scared you might like it?
Copy !req
30. I'll show you who's scared.
Copy !req
31. Oh, wow, this really hides
my thighs. (growls lewdly)
Copy !req
32. - (knocking on door)
Hey, why is this door locked?
Copy !req
33. Oh, no, it's Dad!
Copy !req
34. What's going on?
Copy !req
35. And I want a non-gay
explanation.
Copy !req
36. Uh, we're drunk,
Copy !req
37. really drunk.
Copy !req
38. Oh, thank God.
Copy !req
39. - Clear.
- (screams)
Copy !req
40. Why are you doing that?
Copy !req
41. Oh. It's good
for the batteries.
Copy !req
42. Now, I'm afraid your son
has cracked his coccyx.
Copy !req
43. I'm sorry. How long
will he take to recover?
Copy !req
44. He'll have to wear this
fanny cast for quite some time.
Copy !req
45. But don't worry, son. It fits
snugly under your clothes.
Copy !req
46. Do all these people have
to watch me?
Copy !req
47. Now, son, this is
a teaching hospital
Copy !req
48. which is why I equipped
the seat of your cast
Copy !req
49. with a viewing window.
Copy !req
50. Oh, my. Now, that's something.
Copy !req
51. He should exercise more.
Copy !req
52. (grunting)
Oh!
Copy !req
53. Uh, little help?
Copy !req
54. Bart,
stop fooling around.
Copy !req
55. Principal Skinner,
I thought public schools
Copy !req
56. were required to have
access ramps for the disabled.
Copy !req
57. Technically, yes, but the building costs
would be astronomical.
Copy !req
58. Did I hear the world
"astronomical"?
Copy !req
59. If so, my construction outfit,
Copy !req
60. Valdazzo Brothers Olive Oil,
is poised to help.
Copy !req
61. No, no, no, no.
We're not building anything.
Copy !req
62. How can you say that
Copy !req
63. when construction
has already begun?
Copy !req
64. How did those trucks
get here so fast?
Copy !req
65. In order to avoid certain
"legal complications,"
Copy !req
66. the trucks are always rolling.
Copy !req
67. Now for
the groundbreaking ceremony.
Copy !req
68. Good lord, do we really need
all those ramps?
Copy !req
69. Who's to say?
Copy !req
70. Does a peacock need
all those feathers?
Copy !req
71. Look, you're getting
a little philosophical for me.
Copy !req
72. I suppose so. They say
it happens in the autumn years.
Copy !req
73. Be that as it may...
Copy !req
74. Get your hand off my car.
Copy !req
75. This is a proud day.
Copy !req
76. Now when people ask
if we're in compliance
Copy !req
77. with the Americans
with Disabilities Act of 1975,
Copy !req
78. I can say we are closer
than ever before!
Copy !req
79. Thank you.
To inaugurate our ramp system,
Copy !req
80. here's the first of what I hope
Copy !req
81. will be many disabled students,
Bart Simpson.
Copy !req
82. - I'm proud of you, boy.
- What the...
Copy !req
83. - Bart, where's your wheelchair?
- Don't need it any more.
Copy !req
84. Doctor says my butt bone's
stronger than ever.
Copy !req
85. (grunting)
Ta-da!
Copy !req
86. - (weak applause)
That's interesting.
Copy !req
87. Well, at least we're prepared
for the new millennium.
Copy !req
88. By God, the whole thing's
made of bread sticks!
Copy !req
89. And paint and shellac.
Copy !req
90. It's all itemized in this bill.
Copy !req
91. $200,000? Are you mad?
Copy !req
92. I don't get mad. I get stabby.
Copy !req
93. The good news
is we need no longer fear
Copy !req
94. vicious mob reprisals.
Copy !req
95. But due to lack of funds,
Copy !req
96. Springfield Elementary
is closed forever.
Copy !req
97. Yay!
Copy !req
98. Oh, you're cheering now,
but someday you'll—
Copy !req
99. Yay!
Copy !req
100. I'm just going to stop trying.
Copy !req
101. Yay!
Copy !req
102. - How could you close the school?
- What will become of our kids?
Copy !req
103. - Where are the refreshments?
- Now, you keep asking me that
Copy !req
104. and I keep telling you
"over there."
Copy !req
105. (clears throat) As for the school,
we're exploring various options
Copy !req
106. to raise the $200,000 we need.
Copy !req
107. I've got a motor home
I never use.
Copy !req
108. Maybe we should raffle it off.
Copy !req
109. Maybe you should shut up.
Copy !req
110. Well, I... OK.
Copy !req
111. We could try selling liquor.
Copy !req
112. I'm doing great.
Copy !req
113. Please, sir, put some shoes on.
Copy !req
114. What? You don't like my bags?
Copy !req
115. People, these are
all good ideas.
Copy !req
116. No, they're not. They're
terrible, terrible ideas.
Copy !req
117. You're right. It's hopeless.
Copy !req
118. No one has that kind of money.
Copy !req
119. What about Mr. Burns?
Copy !req
120. Maybe he'll help us out.
Copy !req
121. Forget it.
He releases the hounds
Copy !req
122. on every charity
that comes to his door...
Copy !req
123. Feed The Children,
Save The Whales,
Copy !req
124. even Release The Hounds.
Copy !req
125. Well, maybe we can
pry open his wallet
Copy !req
126. with a slick, professional pitch.
(snaps fingers)
Copy !req
127. A school play!
Copy !req
128. Welcome to
the world premiere of...
Copy !req
129. The Nice Man Giveth.
Copy !req
130. Oh, focus!
Copy !req
131. It's a play, sir.
Copy !req
132. Hmm, which one of these
is the salt?
Copy !req
133. Too bad I'm an idiot
'cause my school closed.
Copy !req
134. Oh, well.
Copy !req
135. No, that's the rat poison!
Copy !req
136. And freeze!
Copy !req
137. Now, who in Springfield
will eat the poisoned broth?
Copy !req
138. Oh, it could be anyone,
Copy !req
139. even Mr. Burns.
Copy !req
140. This play really speaks to me.
Copy !req
141. I can't take Mr. Burns
to the (lisping) hotpital
Copy !req
142. 'cause I'm too dumb
to read a map.
Copy !req
143. Oh, why did my school
have to close?
Copy !req
144. Hmm.
Copy !req
145. Hello, I'm Dr. Stupid.
Copy !req
146. I'm going to take out
your liver bones.
Copy !req
147. (grunts)
Oops, you're dead.
Copy !req
148. I never liked that Dr. Stupid.
Copy !req
149. Mr. Burns, I'll be honest.
We had a hidden agenda tonight.
Copy !req
150. - (gasps) No!
- The holiday season is approaching,
Copy !req
151. and these children
need a school.
Copy !req
152. Charity, eh?
Yes, I'd be more than happy...
Copy !req
153. Oh, it's doing
that thing again.
Copy !req
154. We now return to
Copy !req
155. (groans)
Daytime TV is muy estupido.
Copy !req
156. - (static crackles)
- Hey, our school's on TV.
Copy !req
157. Springfield Elementary
has reopened its doors.
Copy !req
158. I'm with Jim Hope
Copy !req
159. of Kid First Industries
Copy !req
160. which has generously stepped in
Copy !req
161. to educate our children.
Copy !req
162. That's right, Kent. You know,
Copy !req
163. when public schools
drop the ball,
Copy !req
164. it's up to the private sector
Copy !req
165. to fall on that fumble
Copy !req
166. and run for the end zone.
Copy !req
167. Will you be replacing
Copy !req
168. the current teachers
and administrators?
Copy !req
169. Very much so, Kent.
But they've already received
Copy !req
170. an extremely generous
severance package.
Copy !req
171. "Valencia?"
Copy !req
172. (scoffs)
These are juice oranges!
Copy !req
173. Howdy, children. I'd like
to welcome you back to school!
Copy !req
174. Boo!
- You know what? I agree.
Copy !req
175. Wha...
- Your old school was boring.
Copy !req
176. That's why it failed, right?
Well, we're not going
Copy !req
177. to make you memorize
facts and dates.
Copy !req
178. No, no, no.
Copy !req
179. I'm going to find out
Copy !req
180. what you really love in life
Copy !req
181. and teach to that.
Copy !req
182. What are you
passionate about, partner?
Copy !req
183. - Boogers.
- (all laughing)
Copy !req
184. "Boogers"! (laughs)
That was great!
Copy !req
185. You know, humor is
a sign of intelligence.
Copy !req
186. - You're not mad?
- Hey, I'm here to make sure
Copy !req
187. that you get a kick
out of education.
Copy !req
188. Hyah!
Copy !req
189. Yay!
Copy !req
190. He's rekindled my love affair
Copy !req
191. with books.
Copy !req
192. Check it out. I'm breaking books
at a sixth-grade level.
Copy !req
193. - (grunts)
- Get 'em, boy!
Copy !req
194. Hit those smart-ass books!
Copy !req
195. Why don't you kick
some books, Lisa?
Copy !req
196. Bart broke all my books.
Copy !req
197. You know what our homework is?
Copy !req
198. Find a toy
and bring it to class.
Copy !req
199. Boy, that sounds fun.
Copy !req
200. I know, but I'm still
not going to do it.
Copy !req
201. Since Christmas is coming soon,
Copy !req
202. I thought we could talk
about our favorite toys.
Copy !req
203. Milhouse,
what have you got there?
Copy !req
204. My busy box.
Copy !req
205. It's got everything.
Copy !req
206. Vroom! Vroom! Vroom!
Copy !req
207. I'm calling Daddy.
Copy !req
208. Good for you.
Not being bound
Copy !req
209. by the recommended age.
Copy !req
210. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
211. Oh, jeez!
Copy !req
212. How about the rest of you?
Copy !req
213. What do you like
about those toys of yours?
Copy !req
214. They're special.
Copy !req
215. They're challenging.
Copy !req
216. Very good.
Copy !req
217. Now I want you all
to imagine the perfect toy.
Copy !req
218. - What would it be like?
- It should be soft and cuddly.
Copy !req
219. Yeah, with lots of firepower.
Copy !req
220. Its eyes should be telescopes.
Copy !req
221. No, periscopes.
Copy !req
222. No, microscopes!
Copy !req
223. Can you come back to me?
Copy !req
224. It should be full of surprises.
Copy !req
225. It should never stop dancing.
Copy !req
226. It should need accessories.
Copy !req
227. Now that's market research
Copy !req
228. you can take to the bank.
Copy !req
229. The money bank.
Copy !req
230. I just wish
those second graders
Copy !req
231. would stop jerking us around.
Copy !req
232. - Fun toys are fun.
- Well said, Ralph.
Copy !req
233. But we're trying to come up
with a name for a toy.
Copy !req
234. - Mrs. Fun?
- Not bad.
Copy !req
235. Fun?
Copy !req
236. Ralph, there are no right
or wrong answers,
Copy !req
237. but if you don't pipe down,
I'm giving you an "F."
Copy !req
238. The before teacher
yelled at me, too.
Copy !req
239. No one's yelling.
Copy !req
240. We're just brainstorming names.
Copy !req
241. Lisa, any ideas?
Copy !req
242. Oh, a name with fun?
Copy !req
243. Um, fungus?
Copy !req
244. Funzo? Attila the fun?
Copy !req
245. Lisa, are you doing math?
Copy !req
246. Uh, just a few Venn diagrams.
Copy !req
247. There's more under her chair.
Copy !req
248. Lisa in trouble.
Copy !req
249. Ha, the ironing is delicious.
Copy !req
250. - The word is "irony."
- Huh?
Copy !req
251. Don't you think there's
something weird going on here?
Copy !req
252. We spend all day
selecting fabric swatches,
Copy !req
253. and then our guest speaker
was Phil from marketing.
Copy !req
254. Alls I know is I'm getting
straight As
Copy !req
255. and that ain't not bad.
Copy !req
256. That's not funny!
Copy !req
257. Huh? Oh.
Copy !req
258. They're spying on us.
Copy !req
259. Why would they do that?
Copy !req
260. I see you.
- (gasps)
Copy !req
261. Give me a hug.
Copy !req
262. This better be important, Lisa.
Copy !req
263. I left Ralphie alone
in the bathtub.
Copy !req
264. Daddy,
I'm ready to get out now.
Copy !req
265. Over.
Copy !req
266. This broom closet
is not what it seems.
Copy !req
267. It's a secret surveillance room
guarded by a tiny evil robot.
Copy !req
268. Ugh. Is this going to be like
one of those horror movies
Copy !req
269. where we open the door
and everything's normal
Copy !req
270. and we think you're crazy
Copy !req
271. but then there really is
a killer robot
Copy !req
272. and the next morning you find
me impaled on a weathervane?
Copy !req
273. Is that what this is, Lisa?
Copy !req
274. To be fair, not all
evil robots are killers.
Copy !req
275. Listen, when you see
what's inside this...
Copy !req
276. I don't understand. I could
swear it was right here.
Copy !req
277. Yeah, right, mop top.
And I'm Ed Sullivan.
Copy !req
278. (imitating Ed Sullivan)
Really big shew...
Copy !req
279. No, no, I can do it better.
Copy !req
280. Really big shew, really big.
That's it.
Copy !req
281. Well, folks, that's
the end of Krusty's
Copy !req
282. nondenominational
holiday fun fest.
Copy !req
283. I want to thank my guests
Copy !req
284. Tea Leoni...
Copy !req
285. Beck...
Copy !req
286. The Dixie Chicks...
Copy !req
287. Merry Christmas, y'all.
Copy !req
288. and Patrick Ewing
as the genie.
Copy !req
289. So have a merry Christmas,
happy Hanukkah, kwazy Kwanza,
Copy !req
290. a tip-top Tet, and a solemn,
dignified Ramadan.
Copy !req
291. Now a word from my God,
our sponsor.
Copy !req
292. I see you.
Copy !req
293. Give me a hug.
Copy !req
294. Hah! That's the doll
that attacked me.
Copy !req
295. This Christmas,
everybody wants Funzo.
Copy !req
296. Funzo? I said
that name in class.
Copy !req
297. Funzo's soft and cuddly.
Copy !req
298. With lots of firepower.
Copy !req
299. - Aah! Ow
- Yes!
Copy !req
300. (imitating Nelson)
Haw haw!
Copy !req
301. Funzo!
Copy !req
302. Funzo! Funzo!
Copy !req
303. If you don't have Funzo,
Copy !req
304. you're nothing.
Copy !req
305. Mom, I know what
I want for Christmas.
Copy !req
306. Bart, they lied to us.
Copy !req
307. Instead of giving us
an education,
Copy !req
308. they tricked us
into designing a toy.
Copy !req
309. Aren't you outraged?
Copy !req
310. No, but if you're going
to throw a spaz,
Copy !req
311. - I'll come with.
- Good.
Copy !req
312. Saddle up the bikes.
Copy !req
313. Get down. Security guard.
Copy !req
314. Hey, it's Gary Coleman.
Copy !req
315. But the menu said
"galaxy of prawns."
Copy !req
316. Three prawns
are hardly a galaxy.
Copy !req
317. What do you mean your hands are tied?
Let me talk to Mr. Kwan.
Copy !req
318. I want to see
how this turns out.
Copy !req
319. The phone's
not even plugged in.
Copy !req
320. All right, you listen
to me, Kwan...
Copy !req
321. Hang on, I got another call.
Copy !req
322. Yes, Mr. President. I can be
in Washington right away.
Copy !req
323. You people took advantage
of trusting school children.
Copy !req
324. How did you get past
Gary Coleman?
Copy !req
325. Let's just say he's
a few prawns short of a galaxy.
Copy !req
326. I'm sorry, Gary. There's
no longer a place for you here.
Copy !req
327. Whatchu talkin' about,
Miss Naegle?
Copy !req
328. That is so adorable.
Copy !req
329. You're rehired.
Copy !req
330. Sucker. I knew exactly
what she was talking about.
Copy !req
331. Lisa, I know you're mad,
but just for a damn minute
Copy !req
332. try to see this from a product
positioning standpoint.
Copy !req
333. Do you have any idea
how much pressure we're under
Copy !req
334. to come up with the new Furby
or Tickle Me Elmo?
Copy !req
335. And thanks to you, Funzo is the first doll
designed by children
Copy !req
336. for children, with all
the profits going to children.
Copy !req
337. Really?
Copy !req
338. Yeah, well, we're all
somebody's children.
Copy !req
339. But, hey, we did screw you a little.
So, here's a free Funzo.
Copy !req
340. - Deal.
- Oh, brother.
Copy !req
341. And I want
Funzo's Dream Fortress,
Copy !req
342. Funzo's Lower Back Pain Chair,
Copy !req
343. Funzo's European
Voltage Converter...
Copy !req
344. Why not get three?
Copy !req
345. Ah, three, it is.
Copy !req
346. Thanks, Funzo. You rock.
Copy !req
347. All righty.
Copy !req
348. It's always a party with Funzo.
Copy !req
349. I admit it's kind of cute,
Copy !req
350. but it'll never take
the place of Malibu Stacy.
Copy !req
351. (gasps)
Did you see that?
Copy !req
352. Yeah. Funzo makes playtime fun.
Copy !req
353. Hey, kids, it's...
(gagging)
Copy !req
354. Hey, why is it destroying
other toys?
Copy !req
355. They must have programmed it
to eliminate the competition.
Copy !req
356. - You mean like Microsoft?
- Exactly.
Copy !req
357. Come on, Bart, we've got
to warn everyone.
Copy !req
358. Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah!
Copy !req
359. Boycott Funzo!
Copy !req
360. He's a toy-killing machine!
Copy !req
361. (chuckles)
That shy little imp?
Copy !req
362. - I have a flower for 'oo.
Aww...
Copy !req
363. Oh, man, I got
to get me one of those.
Copy !req
364. Hey, I'm not waiting
till the store opens.
Copy !req
365. - (all shouting)
Get out of the way!
Copy !req
366. Wow. Only 22 seconds
from muttering to door smash.
Copy !req
367. That projects to a profit of...
Copy !req
368. $370 million.
Copy !req
369. I'd still sleep a little easier
if I saw some trampling.
Copy !req
370. Ow! Ow! Ow! Hey! Ow!
Copy !req
371. Now, why would you wear cleats
to a store?
Copy !req
372. Well, I guess that's it.
Copy !req
373. Come Christmas eve,
there'll be a Funzo
Copy !req
374. under every tree.
Copy !req
375. Unless...
Copy !req
376. - So, who am I beating up?
- Nobody.
Copy !req
377. You're just going to break
into everyone's house
Copy !req
378. and steal their favorite toy.
Copy !req
379. Thus saving Christmas.
Copy !req
380. Now, let's see, this will make
three Christmases
Copy !req
381. I saved versus eight I ruined.
Two were kind of a draw...
Copy !req
382. Dad, Dad, you're driving
on the sidewalk.
Copy !req
383. - Sorry.
- (cat yowls)
Copy !req
384. Peace out.
Copy !req
385. Alrighty!
Copy !req
386. Just dump them
in the fire, Dad.
Copy !req
387. Yes. The madness ends here.
Copy !req
388. Huh! If I had a nickel
for every time I've heard that.
Copy !req
389. I'm very mad at 'oo.
Copy !req
390. Well, what do we have here?
Copy !req
391. Looks like the biggest rip-off
since Webster.
Copy !req
392. (yelps) Please, Mr. Coleman,
we can explain.
Copy !req
393. I'm listening.
Copy !req
394. Your toy company is evil.
Copy !req
395. Well, isn't it possible
Copy !req
396. for an evil company
to make people happy?
Copy !req
397. Are you saying the end
justifies the means?
Copy !req
398. That's a very glib
interpretation.
Copy !req
399. Hey, don't talk
to my sister that way.
Copy !req
400. No, Bart, he's right.
Copy !req
401. I did oversimplify.
Copy !req
402. Perhaps, but let's not get
bogged down in semantics.
Copy !req
403. I think what Lisa meant
to say is...
Copy !req
404. And so
Gary Coleman and the Simpsons
Copy !req
405. argued long into the night...
Copy !req
406. and then, as day broke
Copy !req
407. the spirit of the season
entered their hearts.
Copy !req
408. Let's just agree that the
commercialization of Christmas
Copy !req
409. is at best a mixed blessing.
Copy !req
410. - Amen.
Yeah, amen. Amen. Amen.
Copy !req
411. Love!
Copy !req
412. Hey, look out!
(shouting)
Copy !req
413. Well, there's something
you don't see every Christmas.
Copy !req
414. Hey, it is Christmas.
Copy !req
415. We'd better get home.
Copy !req
416. Hey, Dad,
what do you think of...
Copy !req
417. Um, uh, Mr. Coleman,
I've been thinking,
Copy !req
418. uh, my wife always makes
too much stuffing
Copy !req
419. and sweet p'taters
and all, and...
Copy !req
420. Oh, heck.
Copy !req
421. Would you like to spend
Christmas with us?
Copy !req
422. No way. I'm having Christmas
at George Clooney's house.
Copy !req
423. Gary.
Copy !req
424. All right, I'll come.
Copy !req
425. And Gary Coleman
was as good as his word.
Copy !req
426. As for old Mr. Burns,
he was visited by three ghosts
Copy !req
427. during the night and agreed
to fund the school
Copy !req
428. with some money he found
in his tuxedo pants...
Copy !req
429. Thank you, thank you. Humbug.
Copy !req
430. while Moe, seeing
what the world would be like
Copy !req
431. if he had never been born
Copy !req
432. pulled his head
out of the oven
Copy !req
433. ad replaced it with
a plump Christmas goose.
Copy !req
434. Here, happy holidays there.
Copy !req
435. Merry Christmas, Moe.
Copy !req
436. Uh, listen, I kind of banged up
the jeep in the driveway.
Copy !req
437. Whatchu talkin' about, Moe?
Copy !req
438. Whatchu talkin' 'bout,
everyone.
Copy !req
439. - (murmuring)
- Shh!
