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