1. D'oh!
Copy !req
2. You sure look stupid
in that green dress, Lise.
Copy !req
3. That's funny.
I don't feel stupid.
Copy !req
4. Hey. Everybody's wearing green.
Copy !req
5. - Oh, no.
- Pinch!
Copy !req
6. Happy St. Patrick's Day, loser!
Copy !req
7. Ow! Quit it!
Copy !req
8. It's the wearin' of the green, Bart!
Pinch, pinch, pinch!
Copy !req
9. - No one's pinching his legs.
- Pinch, pinch, pinch, pinch!
Copy !req
10. Oh!
Copy !req
11. Oh!
Copy !req
12. It's been St. Patrick's Day for hours,
and I'm still not drunk yet!
Copy !req
13. Oh, it's never gonna be 9:00.
Moe! Moe!
Copy !req
14. Thank God you're here.
We'd like to come in and drink, please.
Copy !req
15. - We kicked down the back door,
but then there was a metal door.
- Yeah, all right. Listen up.
Copy !req
16. This is the busiest
drinking day of the year.
Copy !req
17. Where are the designated drivers?
Beat it!
Copy !req
18. I got no room for cheapskates.
Copy !req
19. Top of the mornin' to ye
on this gray, drizzly afternoon.
Copy !req
20. Kent O'Brockman live
on Main Street where today...
Copy !req
21. everyone is a little bit Irish...
Copy !req
22. except, of course,
for the gays and the Italians.
Copy !req
23. All right, then.
Move along.
Copy !req
24. - Nothin' to see here.
- Show's over, folks.
Copy !req
25. - Parades just bring out so many emotions in me-
Copy !req
26. joy, excitement, looking.
Copy !req
27. Mom, can I go buy one of those
long, plastic horns?
Copy !req
28. Oh, Bart,
we've bought those before...
Copy !req
29. and you always just throw them
out the car window on the ride home.
Copy !req
30. I get bored with them.
But that won't happen this time.
Copy !req
31. Beep-beep! Comin' through!
Hey, Notre Dame, move it or lose it.
Copy !req
32. A-oo-ga! Will the owner of the great
big butt please move it out of my face.
Copy !req
33. - Climb it, man! All right!
- Hey, Ma, I'm on TV!
Copy !req
34. - Hey, where's that weather chick?
- Ooh! This is some wicked party, huh?
Copy !req
35. - Hey, have you seen Sully?
- Get away from here!
Copy !req
36. Hey! I need that pencil!
Ladies and gentlemen, what you are seeing...
Copy !req
37. is a total disregard for the things
St. Patrick's Day stands for.
Copy !req
38. All this drinking, violence,
destruction of property-
Copy !req
39. Are these the things we think of
when we think of the Irish?
Copy !req
40. Hey, give me some room!
Watch the elbow, Seamus!
Copy !req
41. Hey, look, everybody!
Free beer!
Copy !req
42. Open your yaps, boyos!
Copy !req
43. Hey, what the- Oh!
Copy !req
44. Everybody-
Everybody get naked!
Copy !req
45. Come on. Don't be stuck-up.
It's going to be great.
Copy !req
46. Well, why not?
Copy !req
47. This party's just getting started!
Copy !req
48. Stop the celebration!
That small boy is drunk!
Copy !req
49. - Yea, Bart!
- Yea!
Copy !req
50. Look at me!
I'm the prime minister of Ireland!
Copy !req
51. Hey, Homer,
ain't that your kid on TV?
Copy !req
52. What are you lookin' at?
Copy !req
53. "What are you looking at?"
Copy !req
54. The innocent words
of a drunken child.
Copy !req
55. Well, I'll tell you what we're looking at,
young man. A town gone mad!
Copy !req
56. A town whose very conscience was washed away
in a tide of beer and green vomit.
Copy !req
57. - I'm going down to Moe's for a couple beers.
- I'll come with you.
Copy !req
58. No! No more drinking.
Copy !req
59. I'm tired of looking like
the world's worst mother.
Copy !req
60. Oh, honey, you're not
the world's worst mother.
Copy !req
61. What about that
freezer lady in Georgia?
Copy !req
62. - But what's the solution?
Copy !req
63. Are we so bereft of ideas
that we must revive...
Copy !req
64. the antiquated notion of prohibition?
Copy !req
65. Channel 6 says yes.
Copy !req
66. Prohibition.
Copy !req
67. They tried that in the movies,
and it didn't work.
Copy !req
68. I predict this is the last
we'll be hearing about prohibition.
Copy !req
69. We want prohibition!
We want prohibition!
Copy !req
70. You can't seriously want
to ban alcohol.
Copy !req
71. It tastes great,
makes women appear more attractive...
Copy !req
72. and makes a person virtually
invulnerable to criticism.
Copy !req
73. Won't somebody
please think of the children?
Copy !req
74. - What kind of an example are we setting?
- Ladies, please.
Copy !req
75. All our founding fathers,
astronauts and World Series heroes...
Copy !req
76. have been either drunk
or on cocaine.
Copy !req
77. Uh, uh, uh, wait. Lookee here.
Copy !req
78. Seems there's been a prohibition law
on the books in Springfield for 200 years.
Copy !req
79. It's just never been enforced.
Copy !req
80. - Get out of here, old clerk guy.
Copy !req
81. There's also a law requiring
ducks to wear long pants.
Copy !req
82. Wait a minute!
Let me see that!
Copy !req
83. Well, I'll be darned.
Long pants.
Copy !req
84. Read the other one,
the non-duck one.
Copy !req
85. "And spirituous beverages
are hereby prohibited...
Copy !req
86. under penalty of catapult."
Copy !req
87. Did you see this, Bernice?
Copy !req
88. Eh- Oh, my.
Copy !req
89. No, we're not worried.
Our customers buy Duff...
Copy !req
90. for its robust taste,
not its alcoholic content.
Copy !req
91. I predict our new
alcohol-free Duff Zero...
Copy !req
92. will sell even better
than our previous brand.
Copy !req
93. Oh!
Copy !req
94. Well, that's the end of me.
Copy !req
95. Dateline, Springfield.
Copy !req
96. With prohibition back in force, sobriety's
peaceful slumber was shattered...
Copy !req
97. by its noisy neighbor,
the speakeasy.
Copy !req
98. Glad you're finally
back in business, Moe.
Copy !req
99. Yeah. That was a scary couple of hours.
Copy !req
100. The suppliers of the illegal booze-
Copy !req
101. gangsters-
running truckloads of smuggled hooch...
Copy !req
102. all the way from Shelbyville.
Copy !req
103. - And John Law was helpless.
- You didn't see nothin'.
Copy !req
104. I don't know why
people are always bad-mouthing the Mafia.
Copy !req
105. Whoo! Wa-ho!
Copy !req
106. So!
Copy !req
107. Better turn on
the old Wiggum charm.
Copy !req
108. Pervert!
Copy !req
109. Oh, boy.
That sounded bad.
Copy !req
110. We demand you bring in a police chief
who will enforce the prohibition law.
Copy !req
111. Demand? Who are you to demand
anything? I run this town!
Copy !req
112. You're just a bunch
of low-income nobodies!
Copy !req
113. Uh, election in November.
Election in November.
Copy !req
114. What? Again?
This stupid country.
Copy !req
115. With rum-running
hoodlums in the catbird seat...
Copy !req
116. Springfield sent for the one man who could
clean up the town and shoot the gangsters-
Copy !req
117. Rex Banner.
Copy !req
118. Whoa! Whoa! Ow! Hey, I was watching that.
And I was sittin' there.
Copy !req
119. Rex Banner.
I'm running this department now.
Copy !req
120. Wiggum, you're out,
suspended indefinitely!
Copy !req
121. Huh?
Copy !req
122. Tuck in that shirt!
Get those shoes shined!
Copy !req
123. Take that badge out of your mouth!
You're police officers.
Copy !req
124. Well, what are you waiting for,
somebody to kiss you good-bye?
Copy !req
125. Well? No, no, no.
I guess not.
Copy !req
126. Wasting no time,
Rex Banner tore into the bootleggers...
Copy !req
127. like a chippie
tearing into a lobster.
Copy !req
128. How do you know you don't like bribes
if you've never taken one?
Copy !req
129. - Here.
- Say, this is nice.
Copy !req
130. - No! No bribes!
- Okay, you win.
Copy !req
131. - From now on, we'll stick to smuggling heroin.
- See that you do!
Copy !req
132. At first, I thought prohibition
was a good thing.
Copy !req
133. People were drinking more
and having a lot more fun.
Copy !req
134. But without beer,
prohibition doesn't work.
Copy !req
135. Hey, hi. Can I arrest
any of you people for anything?
Copy !req
136. - No.
- Aw, geez. I don't have anything to do anymore.
Copy !req
137. With Banner around, alcohol and crime
are history in this town...
Copy !req
138. and so am I.
Copy !req
139. Now, don't say that!
Alcohol is a way of life.
Copy !req
140. Alcohol is my way of life,
and I aim to keep it.
Copy !req
141. Sounds like you have a plan.
Copy !req
142. Maybe I do, Chief.
Maybe I do.
Copy !req
143. - Come on, boy. Think of a plan.
- I'm tryin', Dad!
Copy !req
144. Kent Brockman at the now-closed
Duff bottling plant...
Copy !req
145. where a mysterious person in black
keeps a solitary vigil.
Copy !req
146. - I've got it!
Copy !req
147. We're going out, Marge!
If we don't come back, avenge our deaths!
Copy !req
148. - All right!
Copy !req
149. Whoa! Bonanza!
Copy !req
150. - Let's load it up before the rats regroup.
- Right.
Copy !req
151. Now, remember,
don't mention this to anyone-
Copy !req
152. not to your mother,
not Rex Banner, not anyone!
Copy !req
153. Rex Banner. What a dope!
Copy !req
154. Yeah. Look at him try
to aim that stupid gun.
Copy !req
155. Hang on, Son!
Copy !req
156. - Dad, knocking over a gravestone is bad luck.
- Really? I heard good.
Copy !req
157. What happened to you, Homer?
Copy !req
158. - And what have you done to the car?
- Nothin'.
Copy !req
159. I don't think
it had broken axles before.
Copy !req
160. Before! Before! You're livin' in the past,
Marge. Quit livin' in the past.
Copy !req
161. That's funny.
I used to be able to go down there.
Copy !req
162. - Going bowling. Not back, avenge deaths.
Copy !req
163. Why do you have
so many bowling balls?
Copy !req
164. Oh! I'm not gonna lie to you, Marge.
Copy !req
165. - So long!
Copy !req
166. Aw, rats.
Another gutter ball.
Copy !req
167. - Gee, Homer, you sure do suck tonight.
- Yeah, suck like a fox!
Copy !req
168. There you go, Barn.
That'll be 45 bucks.
Copy !req
169. Forty-five bucks?
Copy !req
170. This better be the best-tastin' beer
in the world.
Copy !req
171. You got lucky.
Copy !req
172. You see, boy?
The real money's in bootlegging...
Copy !req
173. not in your childish vandalism.
Copy !req
174. Oh. So many wasted nights.
Copy !req
175. - What's the matter, Chief?
- Yeah. You've barely touched
your Banana Kaboom.
Copy !req
176. This isn't a very happy birthday
for Rex Banner.
Copy !req
177. Hello, fishies!
Copy !req
178. - Listen, rummy!
Copy !req
179. I'm gonna say it plain and simple.
Where'd you pinch the hooch?
Copy !req
180. - Is some blind tiger jerking suds on the side?
- Yes?
Copy !req
181. Wait a minute.
I forgot to make sure...
Copy !req
182. the coast was clear.
Copy !req
183. Ah, it's probably clear.
Let's go.
Copy !req
184. - Beer!
Copy !req
185. I can explain, Marge.
Please let me explain.
Copy !req
186. Oh, why won't you let me explain?
Copy !req
187. You're the one the papers
have been talking about-
Copy !req
188. that mysterious Beer Baron who's been
supplying Springfield with alcohol.
Copy !req
189. How have you been
getting away with this?
Copy !req
190. Well-
And I can explain, remember?
Copy !req
191. I fill the balls with beer that I found
at the dump. And then I bowl them...
Copy !req
192. and some underground pipes
take them into Moe's.
Copy !req
193. Homer, that's very clever.
Copy !req
194. - Huh?
- Mom?
Copy !req
195. Well, it is. I've known your father
since high school...
Copy !req
196. and this is the cleverest thing
he's ever done.
Copy !req
197. Besides, he's only breaking
a silly, 200-year-old law.
Copy !req
198. It is silly, Marge.
And look at all the money I'm making!
Copy !req
199. - Whoo!
- Mom!
Copy !req
200. Prohibition may be unpopular,
but it's the law, and we still have-
Copy !req
201. Go to your room, Lisa!
Copy !req
202. Open up, Curly!
This is a raid!
Copy !req
203. A raid? Curly?
Copy !req
204. Um, all right, but, uh...
Copy !req
205. I don't know
what you expect to find...
Copy !req
206. in a simple, uh,
neighborhood pet shop.
Copy !req
207. Pet shop, eh?
Well, I just have one question.
Copy !req
208. What kind of pet shop is filled with rambunctious
yahoos and hot jazz music at 1:00 a. m?
Copy !req
209. Um- Oh.
Copy !req
210. The best damn pet shop in town!
Copy !req
211. - Yeah!
- All right.
Copy !req
212. But you people remember, baby turtles and
alligators may seem like a cute idea for a pet...
Copy !req
213. but they grow up.
Copy !req
214. Let's go, boys.
Copy !req
215. Ow! Those gears down there really hurt.
Copy !req
216. You're out there somewhere,
Beer Baron...
Copy !req
217. and I'll find you.
Copy !req
218. No, you won't.
Copy !req
219. - Yes, I will.
- Won't.
Copy !req
220. Dateline, Springfield.
The elusive Beer Baron...
Copy !req
221. continued to thumb his nose
at authorities.
Copy !req
222. Swaggering about in a garish new hat,
he seemed to say...
Copy !req
223. "Look at me, Rex Banner.
I have a new hat. '"
Copy !req
224. Hey, boy, get cracking.
Moe upped his order to 20 balls a night.
Copy !req
225. - Uh, Dad-
- Call me Beer Baron.
Copy !req
226. All the beer from the landfill is gone,
Beer Baron. We're out of business.
Copy !req
227. But I can't be out of beer.
I'm the Beer Baron!
Copy !req
228. Homer, my customers are sobering up...
Copy !req
229. and they ain't gonna
stick around for the "ambiance."
Copy !req
230. - You gotta get me more beer!
- Sorry, I'm all out.
Copy !req
231. How about some turpentine?
Or caulk? Delicious caulk?
Copy !req
232. Look, find it, buy it, make it-
I don't care.
Copy !req
233. - Just get me some booze, and fast!
- Make it, eh?
Copy !req
234. Forty-two bathtubs, please.
Copy !req
235. - You know, they're 50 for $3,000 today.
- I said 42!
Copy !req
236. Now you're making
your own alcohol?
Copy !req
237. That's even more illegal
than what you were doing before.
Copy !req
238. Remember, honey...
Copy !req
239. we're disobeying
an unjust law here.
Copy !req
240. We're patriots,
like all those people in jail.
Copy !req
241. Who wants a bathtub mint julep?
Copy !req
242. Mm-hmm!
Copy !req
243. - Are you the Beer Baron?
- Well, if you're talking about root beer...
Copy !req
244. I plead guilt-diddily-ilty
as char-diddily-arged.
Copy !req
245. He's not the Baron.
But he sounds drunk. Take him in.
Copy !req
246. - Are you the Beer Baron?
- Yes, but only by night.
Copy !req
247. By day, I'm a mild-mannered reporter
for a major metropolitan newspaper.
Copy !req
248. - Don't crack wise with me, tubby.
- Tubby?
Copy !req
249. Oh, yes, tubby.
Copy !req
250. - Hey, Banner, how's it hangin'?
- None of your business.
Copy !req
251. - What on earth happened down there?
Copy !req
252. - One of the stills-
- Uh, nothing, Marge.
Copy !req
253. I think it must've been
that bean I had for dinner.
Copy !req
254. Kaboom! Blam!
Oh, excuse me again, dear.
Copy !req
255. Homer, there's no point in pretending
you're making those noises.
Copy !req
256. Your homemade liquor
is exploding again.
Copy !req
257. - What, dear? Kablamo!
Copy !req
258. You made some money and had the fun
of being a wanted criminal.
Copy !req
259. - Why not quit now while you're ahead?
Copy !req
260. Boom.
Copy !req
261. - I'll be right back.
Copy !req
262. Oh, it's hot! Oh!
Copy !req
263. Ooh!
Copy !req
264. I thought about what you said, honey,
and I've decided to quit.
Copy !req
265. Oh, well, fun's over.
Copy !req
266. - But I still have my wonderful money.
- Stick 'em up!
Copy !req
267. Geez! What happened to you, Wiggum?
You look terrible.
Copy !req
268. Yeah, never mind how I look.
Are you gonna give me the money or not?
Copy !req
269. Well, I don't think so. You don't even
have a trigger on that thing.
Copy !req
270. Yeah, I had to sell the trigger and
most of the handle to feed my family.
Copy !req
271. Come on! Give me the dough!
I can throw this pretty hard!
Copy !req
272. - Poor Wiggum.
- Poor Wiggum.
Copy !req
273. - I'll bet you really hate Rex Banner, huh?
- Um, who?
Copy !req
274. - The guy who took your job.
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
275. More than anything in the world!
Copy !req
276. Hey, how would you like
to show him up...
Copy !req
277. by beating him at his own game?
Copy !req
278. I'm happy to report that the flow
of illegal liquor seems to have dried up...
Copy !req
279. public drunkenness has ceased,
and those mysterious liquor clouds...
Copy !req
280. over Evergreen Terrace are gone.
Copy !req
281. People, Rex Banner has won
your war against alcohol!
Copy !req
282. - What about the Beer Baron?
Copy !req
283. I suspect he was just
an invention of the media.
Copy !req
284. The idea that someone like that could
operate under my very nose is laughable.
Copy !req
285. Well, you all know
what laughter sounds like.
Copy !req
286. We now go live to Evergreen Terrace
where I'm informed...
Copy !req
287. that former Police Chief Wiggum
has captured the Beer Baron.
Copy !req
288. - They captured Homer?
Copy !req
289. Then the liquor-filled
bowling balls...
Copy !req
290. traveled through a network
of underground pipes...
Copy !req
291. finally emerging
at a nearby speakeasy.
Copy !req
292. - You forgot one thing, Wiggum.
- Yeah, what's that?
Copy !req
293. I filled the balls with a funnel.
Copy !req
294. That was a very sweet thing you did
for poor Wiggum.
Copy !req
295. But what's gonna happen to you?
Copy !req
296. Oh, probably just a slap on the wrist.
Copy !req
297. "A nd he who shall violate this law...
Copy !req
298. shall be punished by catapult."
Copy !req
299. Last time I help you.
Copy !req
300. Sorry. I thought you'd get a fine...
Copy !req
301. or at most,
three, four years in jail.
Copy !req
302. Hold it! This machine is two centuries old.
Better test it first.
Copy !req
303. Oh!
Copy !req
304. - Okay, go ahead.
Copy !req
305. Wait! Wait!
You can't do this!
Copy !req
306. All my husband did was violate a law
that doesn't make sense.
Copy !req
307. Now, I'll admit, car crashes and fistfights
have been down recently...
Copy !req
308. but prohibition
has cost us our freedom-
Copy !req
309. our freedom to drink!
Copy !req
310. - Now, hold on a minute, missy.
Copy !req
311. It's not up to us to choose
which laws we want to obey.
Copy !req
312. If it were, I'd kill everyone
who looked at me cockeyed!
Copy !req
313. - Our laws are in place for a reason.
- Send him back to Mama, boys.
Copy !req
314. That was unexpected. Well, reset the catapult,
and let's get this over with.
Copy !req
315. Wait! I have discovered
more lines on the parchment.
Copy !req
316. It says that the prohibition law
which was passed here 200 years ago...
Copy !req
317. was repealed 199 years ago.
Copy !req
318. Release the prisoner!
Copy !req
319. Oh!
Copy !req
320. On behalf of the city,
I'd like to apologize and ask...
Copy !req
321. how long it will take for you
to flood this town with booze again?
Copy !req
322. Well, sorry. I'm not
in that business anymore.
Copy !req
323. Four minutes.
Copy !req
324. And so one town's
briefflirtation with prohibition...
Copy !req
325. ended in a joyous remarriage
to Lady Liquor.
Copy !req
326. Congratulations, Springfield.
We wish you the very best!
Copy !req
327. To alcohol,
the cause of and solution to...
Copy !req
328. all of life's problems.
Copy !req
329. - Shh!
Copy !req
