!!179 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E1TheCityOfNewYorkVsHomerSimpson The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson]]"
* Barney had been distraught the entire night, since he wasn't allowed to drink while everyone else was living it up at Moe's Tavern. Then the Duff Beer Party Brigade decides ''that night'' to show up ''specifically'' for Barney. You can sympathize with his dismayed "[[OhCrap Oh, no...not tonight! Not TONIGHT!]]".
-->''(Everyone in the bar chanting for Barney to chug the big mug of Duff Extra Cold)''\\
'''Barney:''' ''(at RageBreakingPoint)'' '''I CAN'T! ''[[FreakOut I'M THE DESIGNATED DRIVER]]!'''''\\
''(Moe's Tavern comes to [[MoodKiller an immediate grinding halt]])''\\
'''Duffman:''' ''(quickly)'' Yeah, that's swell; Duff wholeheartedly supports the designated driver program. NOW... ''WHO WANTS'' TA ''PARTY?!''\\
''(All patrons but Barney cheer)''
* Homer is drunk and dropped off at his house by (designated driver) Barney Gumble and he says:
-->'''Homer:''' ''(slurring)'' Goodnight, Barney. Don't forget to bring back my car back tomorrow. Just slide it under the door.\\
'''Barney:''' ''[[SanitySlippage (disturbingly calm)]]'' Yeeeess. ''(click)'' Tomorrow.
* Homer describes to the family his first trip to New York City (presumably sometime in the mid-70's judging by the film quality and appearance of the city). He was on his way to the Harrisburg coat outlet to buy an irregular coat, but it required a stopover. While in the borough of Manhattan, Homer is robbed three times in a row (one of those by a cop), a seagull steal his hot dog, garbage is dumped on him by a young Creator/WoodyAllen, and he falls into a sewer while getting chased by a pimp.
-->'''Homer:''' ...and that's when the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]] came at me.
** It really helps that the flashback sequence is set to Scott Joplin's famous piano piece The Entertainer and that Marge adds "That's what everyone thinks of New York when they only focus on the pimps and the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]]".
* The two people in the original World Trade Center towers who shout to Homer. One of them says they stick all the jerks in Tower 1.[[note]](Which is inaccurate as he was shouting from the North Tower which was known as Tower 1.)[[/note]]
** And then the camera pans up to reveal another guy with a clothesline spanning between the towers telling both of them to shut up.
* Homer has a miserable attempt of trying to go to an Original Famous Ray's pizza shop to get a slice of pizza ''without'' leaving his vehicle.[[note]](In real life, the place would be on Church St.)[[/note]]
* The entire scene of Homer and the Klav Kalash cart. Especially funny is "No bowl. Stick. STICK!" and Homer's reaction to the offer of Mountain Dew or crab juice for a drink - "Blecch! Oh, geez... [[TakeThat I'll take a Crab Juice]]." He proceeds to drink at least a dozen of them.
* Homer's ImagineSpot of Flushing Meadows is quite humorous.
* Homer running up both World Trade Center towers (first the South, then the North) to use the men's restroom, only to get his car ticketed again while doing so, leading him to yell "D'oh" loud enough that the entire city hears.
* ''Kickin' It: A Musical Journey through the Betty Ford Center'' has the ''You're Checking In'' song.
* While Marge and Lisa forlornly look at expensive shoes, Bart walks off on his own and sees a building holding the offices of [[Magazine/{{MAD}} MAD Magazine]].
-->'''Bart:''' Excuse me, is this MAD Magazine?\\
'''Receptionist:''' No, it's Mademoiselle. We're buying our sign on the installment plan.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(laughs)'' Seriously, though, my name is Bart Simpson. My father has a subscription. I'd like the grand tour, please.\\
'''Receptionist:''' Listen, kid, you probably think lots of crazy stuff goes on in there. But this is just a place of business.\\
'''Bart:''' Oh. Okay. \\
''(Bart turns to leave when Alfred E. Neuman pokes his head out of a door, revealing a lot of crazy stuff going on in the next room)''\\
'''Alfred E. Neuman:''' ''(to the receptionist)'' Get me Kaputnik and Fonebone! I wanna see their drawings for the 'New Kids on the Blech.' ''(Bart's jaw drops)'' And where's my furshlugginer pastrami sandwiches?\\
'''Bart:''' Wow! I will never wash these eyes again.
* Driving through New York with the clamp still on his car, with everyone yelling at him, Homer shouts shut up and turns on the radio to drown them out. However, the song that comes on is Ray Stevens' "Everything Is Beautiful", which instead makes Homer so angry he literally kicks in the radio.
* Homer attempts to get the boot off his car, which including stealing a construction worker's jackhammer.
-->'''Homer:''' ''(to the worker who can't hear him because of the noisy jackhammer)'' Hey! ''Hey!'' '''''HEY!!!'''''\\
'''Worker:''' WHAT?!\\
'''Homer:''' The boss says you're fired.\\
'''Worker:''' I'll get him!
* Homer then steals his jackhammer and attempts to use it to get the boot off his car, but just succeeds in ruining his car further. He eventually gets it off and is pleased with himself, but then steps on it, getting it stuck on his foot. He has to kick his car to get it off. All the while, New Yorkers are screaming at him to stop blocking the traffic.
-->'''Homer:''' Thanks for your patience! ''(gunshot hits a street sign, causing Homer to scream and drive off, further damaging the car)''
!!180 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E2ThePrincipalAndThePauper The Principal and the Pauper]]"
* For as much flak as that episode got for ruining Principal Skinner's continuity, there's an utterly hilarious moment when the real Seymour Skinner is dealing with his mother. Agnes has been used to having Seymour under her thumb her whole life, so when the new guy actually disobeys her, her reaction is pure gold.
* Armin Tamzarian (the "Principal Skinner" impostor) yelling, "Up yours, children!" as he leaves Springfield.
* Homer's reaction to the news that Principal Skinner is really Armin Tamzarian:
-->Keep looking shocked and move slowly toward the cake.
** Meanwhile everyone gasps at TheReveal, while Bart quietly sniggers at the name, clearly annoying Armin.
* A teenaged Armin attempting to take on the Vietcong with a switchblade.
* Armin attempting to find work in Capital City and ends up doing sidealk advertising for a sleazy strip joint. His deadpan delivery of the promotional flyer is just gold, especially when he says [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud "wink suggestively" out loud]]
* The Simpsons and Agnes going all the way to CC to get Armin back, only to find him a washed up drunk in a run down apartment.
* The town's solution to allowing Armin to retake his old position while also letting the real Skinner preserve his dignity as thanks for his military service? Tie Skinner up and ride him out of town on a rail.
--> '''Homer''': And we salute you! Now don't come back!
* When the Simpsons, Edna and Agnes are driving to Capitol City:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, once more. Where are we going?\\
'''Edna:''' To Capitol City.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are you and the old lady in the car?\\
'''Agnes:''' We're going to talk Armin Tamzarian into coming back.\\
'''Homer:''' And why is Marge here?\\
'''Marge:''' I came up with the idea.\\
'''Homer:''' And why am I here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because the streets of Capitol City are no place for three unescorted ladies.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are the kids here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because we couldn't find Grandpa to sit for them.\\
'''Homer:''' Then why is Grandpa here?\\
'''Grandpa:''' Because Jasper didn't want to come by himself.\\
'''Jasper:''' ''(nods)''\\
'''Homer:''' Eh, fair enough.
* Skinner asking Bart to recite the pledge of Allegiance:
-->'''Bart:''' Hey America. You're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, America. ''(armpit noise, everybody laughs)''
!!181 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E3LisasSax Lisa's Sax]]"
* The WB bumper with Michigan J. Frog singing, "We're proud to present on the WB/Another bad show that no one will ''see''!" then grumbling, "Uh, I need a drink!"
* Skinner accidentally introducing himself to the kindergardners as Principal Sinner.
-->That's it, I've lost them forever.
* Homer and Marge meet with school psychiatrist Dr. J. Loren Pryor to discuss 5-year-old Bart's sadness, only for it to turn into a discussion about 3-year-old Lisa's potential. Dr. Pryor advises Homer and Marge to start nurturing Lisa's gifts now, believing her potential to be limitless.
-->'''Homer:''' Wow, think of all the possibilities... ''(in a thought bubble, Lisa is given a medal)''\\
'''Imaginary Announcer:''' Lisa Simpson has won the Nobel Prize...\\
'''Homer:''' Nah... ''(Image changes to show Lisa, now wearing a gi, getting a medal)''\\
'''Imaginary Announcer:''' Lisa Simpson has won the Nobel Prize... for kickboxing!\\
'''Imaginary Lisa:''' Hi-Ya! ''(Lisa kicks the presenter)''\\
'''Homer:''' ''(intrigued)'' Hmm...
* Skinner accidentally introduces himself to the first graders as Principal Sinner, much to their amusement.
-->That's it, I've lost them forever.
* Abe's addition to the story:
-->'''Marge:''' Well, Grampa, as long as you're here, we were telling a story that happened when Bart was five and Lisa was three.\\
'''Abe:''' Oh, I know this story. The year is nineteen ought six. The president is the divine Ms. Sarah Bernhardt, and all over America, people were doing a dance called 'The Funky Grampa.' (''singing'') Oh, I'm the-- ''(falls asleep mid-sentence, still on his feet)''
** His later addition has him blurting out "I realized I could make money selling my medication to deadheads."
* Later in the flashback, Springfield is suffering a major heatwave:
-->'''Ned Flanders:''' Uh, Homer?\\
'''Homer:''' What, Flanders?\\
'''Ned:''' Well, sir, I hate to be a suspicious Aloysius, but DID YOU STEAL MY AIR CONDITIONER?! ''(cut to footprints leading from a gaping hole in Ned's wall to the Simpsons' where the air conditioner is propped up with planks and duct taped to the wall)''\\
'''Homer:''' I'll admit it looks bad, Flanders. But doesn't the Bible say "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"? ''(Homer gets hit by a stone thrown by the 5-year-old Rod Flanders)'' Ow!\\
'''Rod:''' Got him, Dad!
* Kent Brockman on TV talking about the heat wave:
-->'''Kent:''' And so Springfield's heat wave continues, with today's temperature exceeding the record for this state, set way back four billion years ago when the earth was just a ball of molten lava.
* Right before 5-year-old Bart goes off to school, Homer tells Bart something he should know.
-->'''Homer:''' Now, son, on your first day of school, I'd like to pass along the words of advice my father gave me.\\
''(Homer thinks back to when he was 5-years-old)''\\
'''Flashback Abe Simpson:''' Homer, you're dumb as a mule and twice as ugly. And if a strange man offers you a ride, I say take it!\\
'''Homer:''' ''(back in present)'' Lousy traumatic childhood!
* Bart's kindergarten teacher's discourages Bart's potential.
-->'''Teacher:''' ''(reading a book)'' And the ugly duckling was amazed to realize it had grown into a beautiful swan. So you see, children, there is hope for anyone.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(raises hand)'' Even me?\\
'''Teacher:''' No.
* Homer seeing [[ImagineSpot his sisters-in-law melt during the heat wave while Homer relaxes in his living room with air-conditioning]].
* Homer comes up with an emergency solution while the air conditioner is broken: Snowball 1 waving a paper fan over a block of ice.
-->'''Homer:''' Marge, we've needed a new air conditioner for years, and my stopgap solution is getting cranky...\\
''(Snowball 1 yowls angrily)''
* Bart decides to embrace the attention he gets as a class clown:
--> '''Skinner:''' You just started school, and the path you take now may be the one you follow for the rest of your life. Now, what do you say?\\
''(Bart looks at his classmates, and gets a smile)''\\
'''Bart:''' Eat my shorts.\\
'''Skinner:''' All right, I'll-- ''(aghast)'' Eat your shorts?!\\
'''Bart:''' Yeah, eat my shorts! [[Series/Batman1966 Buttman! Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, Buttman!]]\\
'''Skinner:''' ''(appalled)'' "Buttman"?! ''(drags Bart away)''
* When Homer's imagining playing a foosball table at a museum:
-->'''Homer:''' You lose, Creator/{{Michelangelo}}'s ''David''. Who's next?\\
'''Creator/{{Edvard Munch}}'s ''Art/{{The Scream|Munch}}'':''' ''(screaming)'' MEEEEEEEEEE!
* "For no reason, here's Apu!"
* Homer goes to Moe's with 3-year-old Lisa:
-->'''Moe:''' Say, who's the little chick?
-->'''Lisa:''' I'm Lisa.
-->'''Homer:''' She has a gift.
-->'''Lisa:''' You have 13 pickled eggs in this jar... and one cockroach.
-->'''Moe:''' (''chuckles nervously'') Who are you, sweetheart, the health inspector?
-->'''Man:''' No, but I am. (''flashes badge'')
-->'''Moe:''' Uh... (''hastily prepares a drink'') Here, have a margarita.
-->(''the health inspector sees an IV needle in the glass'')
-->'''Moe:''' [[NotHelpingYourCase Uh, that's a parasol]].
!!182 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E4TreehouseOfHorrorVIII Treehouse of Horror VIII]]"
!!!A - The Homega Man:
* Mayor Quimby's reaction when the nuke flies past city hall.
-->'''Quimby:''' [[ThisIsgonnaSuck I bet I'll get blamed for this]].
* Comic Book Guy's last moments:
-->'''Comic Book Guy:''' ''(reading a comic)'' But Aquaman, you cannot marry a woman without gills! You're from two separate worlds! ''(sees missile headed straight for him)'' Ooohh, I've wasted my life.
* Homer kicks a skull off its shoulders while watching a comedy movie starring Creator/DavidSpade and Creator/ChrisFarley.
* The sign in front of the church: "Today's sermon: Homer rocks!"
* Homer sings and dances naked to Edwin Starr's "War" while in church.
* Homer runs down the Edgar Winter Group while yelling, "Die, you chalk-faced goons!"[[note]]Edgar Winter and his brother are albinos in real life[[/note]]
* Homer's first reaction upon seeing the horde of mutant ghouls in the church:
-->'''Homer:''' Hey! Where did you get those cloaks!?
* The Mutated Springfielders explain themselves:
-->'''Mutant Skinner:''' [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans We're creating a new, perfect society in which the mistakes of the past will be eliminated]].\\
'''Mutant Burns:''' [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi And now, you must die]].\\
(''Homer shrieks, then notices a candlepole and brandishes it'')\\
'''Homer:''' If you want me, come and get me!\\
'''Mutant Moe:''' Get him!\\
'''Homer:''' D'oh!
* Marge expressing her hopes that the normal people and mutants can live together in harmony right before Marge, Bart, and Lisa whip out shotguns and blow the mutants away. Homer couldn't be prouder.
!!!B - Fly vs. Fly:
* Homer bartering with the Professor Frink for the matter transporter.
-->'''Homer:''' Uhmm, 2 bucks... [[{{Understatement}} and it only transports matter]].....uhm, well... I'll give you 35 cents.\\
'''Professor Frink:''' Sold!
* Homer's LaboriousLaziness with the transporter, such as moving it to the bathroom upstairs for [[ToiletHumour the sole purpose of being able to take a leak from downstairs]] (thankfully, Marge stops him) and moving it to the kitchen so he can reach for beer from the fridge while watching TV (although he accidentally takes the cat's ear medicine instead; not that he notices).
** Homer's demonstration of how they can bypass the stairs with it. As he emerges at the top, MysteriousMist [[Film/TheFly1986 swirls about]], but also some smoke from the ablaze seat of his pants (again, not that he notices).
* Homer accidentally punches Lisa in the face -- through the transporter! ("It was your mother!") Made even funnier upon realizing where the other booth is: Homer had just moved it to the toilet! The writers later admitted that they forgot about this detail when they wrote the sequence.
* "Have you forgotten our little 'Kerblammo!' talk?"
* Bart as a fly pretends to be caught in a spider's web, in a reference to the ending of [[Film/TheFly1958 the original film]]... but as the spider approaches, he reveals he's only pretending to be stuck, calling it a sucker before he bitchslaps the spider in the face. As he flies off, the spider shakes its fists at him with four of its legs.
* When Bart!Fly explains to Lisa that Fly!Bart isn't really him as everyone assumed, Lisa's pretty upset: "And I let him use my toothbrush!"
* Homer chasing Bart with an axe at the end (after he and the fly are switched back) for messing with the teleportation machine. His lines are hilarious.
--> "I'm gonna chop you good! That cost me fifty cents! You're just making it worse! I promise I won't hurt you!"
!!!C - Easy-Bake Coven:
* Homer (dressed as a female belly dancer) chucks rocks at his own house during the first Halloween.
* Homer screams, "They're in my hair! They're in my hair!" as the bats attack him.
* Marge the witch turns Eddie and Lou into a snowman and a Cinderella-esque fairy princess respectively.
* Maude Flanders accidentally gives the witches the idea to eat the townsfolks children.
-->'''Selma:''' Jeez, we were just going to swipe their shoes.\\
'''Patty:''' But a good idea is a good idea!
* Ned attempting to stop the witches [[HolyBurnsEvil with a cross.]] [[NoSell They just push him aside.]]
-->'''Selma:''' Oh, ''please.''
* This exchange between the Flanders:
-->'''Maude:''' Those witches are up there plotting our doom. They could force us to engage in acts of wanton carnality!\\
'''Ned:''' ''(under his breath)'' Yeah, that'll be the day...\\
'''Maude:''' What was that?\\
'''Ned:''' Nothing!
!!!Credits:
* Creator/YeardleySmith is credited as "YourMom".
!!183 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E5TheCartridgeFamily The Cartridge Family]]"
* The townspeople find the soccer game so boring that they riot.
** Kent Brockman commentating on the game in the most bored manner possible, while his South American counterpart commentates in an excitable manner.
** Groundskeeper Willie and his Scottish friends think the riot isn't violent ''enough'', and soon join in.
* Homer has to wait five days before he can legally get his gun. [[TimePassesMontage The waiting period montage]], with Music/TomPetty's "The Waiting" playing, has him sitting in front of his house seeing all the things he wants to shoot, but can't: a family of bunnies, a line of baby ducks, a Target store truck, Patty and Selma on a tandem bike, and Ned Flanders on a riding mower (for extra ComedicSociopathy points, Flanders passes by at least twice).
** Homer's best line of the episode is when he learns about the waiting period.
--->'''Homer:''' Five days? But I'm mad now!
* Homer has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tfZ5iwb-mI bizarre]] ImagineSpot when he ponders what would happen if he used to use his gun to rob the Kwik-E-Mart. He becomes a Southern U.S. Senator with a giant plantation, with Marge go-go dancing in a bikini.
-->'''Homer:''' I'll do it! I'll rob the Kwik-E-Mart! All right, put your-- ''(he is then seen driving away from the store, with a sandwich in his hand)'' D'oh! Oh well, I'll rob it next time. ''(takes a bite out of the sandwich)''
* Homer bought a gun, and Marge does not like that:
-->'''Marge:''' I don't want any guns in the house Homer, they only cause accidents! Remember when Maggie shot Mr. Burns?\\
'''Homer:''' [[DiscontinuityNod I thought Smithers did it.]]\\
'''Lisa:''' That would've made a lot more sense...
* Homer turns out to be more of a gun nut than the NRA. Double points when he turned on the TV by shooting it with his gun...and the show that came on had a cowboy fall off a roof after getting shot. Let's put it this way: you ''know'' you're in trouble when you're told off by a crabby old lady, a mobster, a hick, your cynical, sleazy bartender friend, and a local kids' show host whose life behind camera is a miserable, seedy one.
-->'''Agnes:''' ''(with her typical motherly sternness)'' I've never seen such recklessness.\\
'''Louie:''' [[HypocriticalHumor You might have hurt somebody]].\\
'''Cletus:''' [[HypocriticalHumor Are you some kind of mo-ron]]?\\
'''Homer:''' Yeah, but--\\
'''Krusty:''' Listen, yutz. Guns aren't toys. They're for protecting your family, hunting dangerous or delicious animals, and [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike keeping the King of England out of your face]].
* Homer gets Lisa's ball down by shooting it. She looks hilariously sad as it deflates. He then asks if she would like him to get the cat down, to which she hastily declines.
* Bart discovers the gun hidden in the veggie crisper in the fridge and decides to play William Tell with Milhouse. Milhouse holds the apple ''[[TooDumbToLive in his mouth]]''.
-->'''Milhouse:''' ''(Takes apple from his mouth)'' JINX!
* This MoodWhiplash at the second act break:
--> '''Homer''': So, this is the thanks I get for defending my family? Then go. I'll be just fine. ''(pause)'' ...Do you know how to cook dinner?\\
'''Milhouse''': ''(excitedly)'' ''Do'' I?! ''([[https://frinkiac.com/video/S09E05/ZFaCnkYZW9lO70sVAnBhiJardHc=.gif gets out pots and pans]])''
* In the DVDCommentary, everyone on it realizes that John Swartzwelder hasn't done a commentary yet, so they call him up during recording, and say that they hope that he doesn't sue them after they hang up.
!!184 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E6BartStar Bart Star]]"
* At the health fair, Abe, Jasper, and Old Jewish Man go for a hearing test.
-->'''Maude:''' You just raise your hand when you hear the tone.\\
'''Old Jewish Man:''' You can't tell me what to do!\\
''[Maude turns on the hearing test, which begins emitting a loud tone that none of the old men react to. She turns it up, and still no reaction]''\\
'''Abe:''' Nothing yet!\\
''[Maude turns the test up even higher, causing people in the background to cover their ears as they run off. Jasper starts to raise his hand, but Abe shakes his head and so he puts his hand back down]''
* Smithers' stint as a sports announcer in high school ("Okay, that's it for the women's gymnastics team. [[HoYay Now let's bring on the men!"]])
* Homer chases Bart around the backyard -- not because Bart did something wrong (though Bart does think this), but because Homer wants a hug from him.
* Nelson's line after it's announced that Bart will be the new quarterback: "I won't give you a 'B', but I'll tear ya a new 'A'"
* Joe Namath's entire guest appearance.
--> '''Joe''': There's only one thing you need to know in order to be a great quarterback.\\
'''Joe's wife''': Joe, honey, I fixed It. It was just vapor lock.\\
'''Joe''': Oh, oops. Hey, I gotta run. Remember what I told you.\\
'''Bart''': I'm dead.
* During one of Homer's games as the coach, he uses an old-school atomic football board to plan his team's strategy:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, half of you vibrate one way, half of you vibrate the other way, and Nelson, you just spin around in a circle.
* Lisa tells Ned she wants to be on the team.
-->'''Lisa:''' That's right. A girl wants to play football! How about that?
** When she finds out that there's already girls on the team, she's not interested anymore. She tries to save face by claiming that of course she wouldn't want to throw around the skin of a dead pig. When Flanders says that the footballs are made of synthetic leather and the proceeds are donated to charity, Lisa runs away crying at not having the moral high ground.
* Homer calls into the talk radio station and asks them a question about Flanders. They immediately hang up.
* Homer's flashback reveals that he was very good at sports in high school.
* Homer calls Mr. Burns and telling him, while repeatedly winking, that he's quitting his job. He screams when Marge tells him the winks don't translate through the phone.
* At one point, Nelson is forced to catch his own Hail Mary pass. Upon reaching the endzone, while out of breath, he says he needs to quit smoking.
** Then it's revealed that Springfield is absolutely ''trouncing'' [[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill Arlen, Texas]].
--->'''Hank Hill:''' We drove two thousand miles for ''this''?
* Marge asks Grampa if he's proud of his son managing a team in the championship game. His response? "You'd think so, wouldn't ya." Then he falls asleep.
* Homer cutting kids from the team, and then again over the closing credits.
-->'''Homer:''' ''[over Gracie Films logo]'' You're cut too, Shushie!
!!185 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E7TheTwoMrsNahasapeemapetilons The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons]]"
* At the bachelor auction, Moe is introduced by Krusty thusly: "Our next bachelor likes women who take their clothes off FOR MONEY!" Moe proceeds to walk onstage to {{Death Glare}}s from every woman in the audience, and without stopping, he walks straight to the "Rejects" section.
-->'''Moe:''' [[StepfordSmiler Why do we have to stand here? This is SO humiliating!]]
* The montage of Apu getting different wild haircuts, which are all given thumbs up by Homer.
* '''Apu:''' ''(Entering the Simpsons' house with his mother from India)'' Honey, I am in my home!
* Homer's advice to Apu after the secret about Marge not really being Apu's wife is revealed to his (Apu's) mother.
-->'''Homer:''' You know what you could do, Apu?\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, shut up?\\
'''Homer:''' You could fake your own death...?\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, would you shut up?\\
'''Homer:''' All you'd need is a car bomb and--\\
'''Apu:''' [[{{Catchphrase}} I can't believe you don't shut up!]]
* Moe shows up at the wedding and Lisa offers him a flower necklace, saying it's tradition. As he bends over to wear it, Bart kicks him in the pants, citing "Tradition".
* Homer's last ditch effort to stop the wedding - impersonating Ganesha and running amuck. Blasphemy has never been so hilarious.
--->'''Apu's mother:''' There, Ganesh has been subdued.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(stuck up a tree while Milhouse and another child throw stones at him)'' Allllll willll diiiiieee...
* Lisa asking why Apu's mother is still with the Simpsons and planning the whole wedding there.
!!186 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E8LisaTheSkeptic Lisa the Skeptic]]"
* Homer falling for the "free boat" contest, which the police have instigated to get him to pay off his parking tickets. And then when he pays his tickets, he's ''still'' demanding his motorboat. Lou and Eddie clearly have no idea what to say next.
-->'''Bart:''' Dad, what's going on? Where's our motorboat?\\
'''Homer:''' I didn't like it. The mast had termites.\\
'''Lisa:''' Why would a motorboat have a mast?\\
'''Homer:''' Because... The thing was... Shut up!
* The fine for the parking tickets is also worth a mention - 235 unpaid parking tickets gets you a fine of $175, which means each individual fine is less than 75 cents. This would mean it would be cheaper to park illegally than to pay for it.
* Lisa suspects that angel might be a mutant from the nuclear power plant. Mr. Burns is quick to deny it:
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' D'oh! Fiddle-faddle, everyone knows our mutants have flippers. Oh! I've said too much. Smithers, use the amnesia ray.\\
'''Smithers:''' You mean the revolver, sir?\\
'''Mr. Burns:''' Precisely, be sure to wipe your own memory clear when you've finished.
* When they've dug up the fossil angel, Ned suggests that the whole town should own and cherish it. Naturally, Homer has already tied it to his car and tears out of there while everyone is distracted. He then proceeds to build a small shrine in his garage and charges people to see it.
* Lisa's interview on ''Smartline''.
-->'''Lisa:''' If you believe in angels, then why not unicorns or sea monsters or leprechauns?\\
'''Kent Brockman:''' Oh, that's a bunch of baloney, Lisa! Everyone knows leprechauns are extinct!
* The angel supporters rampaging through town destroying every scientific institution, including a Christian Science building.
** While destroying the museum, Moe tries to destroy a mammoth display, only for one of the tusks to fall off and crush him.
--->'''Moe:''' Oh, I'm paralyzed! [[HypocriticalHumor I just hope medical science can cure me!]]
** Everyone then sets fire to a research laboratory, and a robot comes out of the place in flames.
--->'''Robot:''' [[AC:Whyyyy!? Why was I programmed to feel pain!?]]
* After the angel skeleton has vanished:
-->'''Homer:''' Oh, no! This is a disaster! Now what the hell am I gonna do with three thousand angel ashtrays?!\\
'''Bart:''' I could take up smoking.\\
'''Homer:''' You damn well better.
* TheReveal: The Angel was actually a publicity stunt by the company that were putting up a building on the archeology site, which turns out to be a huge mall. Everyone is outraged until they find out there's a 5% sale for the Grand Opening, and immediately rushes down to buy stuff.

'''Skinner:''' Nuh-uh. That's a vampire. But... they're also covered. Carry on.

You're in the Naval Reserve: America's 17th line of defense, between the Mississippi National Guard, and the League of Women Voters.

Normally, it would be a TearJerker for anyone who has lost a pet, but it's funny here because Homer's stupidity (running a hot bath for a lobster) killed Pinchy and, all throughout the subplot, Homer wanted the lobster so he can fatten it up and eat it when it's all grown up rather than buy a full-sized one from the grocery store. He got what he wanted, but it ended up being a sad time, because he grew attached to Pinchy and (up until that point) decided not to raise it as food.

** And then at the "graduation ceremony" (with watermelon everywhere), Leavelle sings "[[Film/TheBodyguard I Will Always]] [[Music/WhitneyHouston Love You]]". [[DreadfulMusician Badly.]] Everyone leaves.

* The chase sequence, featuring Music/ElvisPresley's rendition of "Viva Las Vegas" (originally, they wanted the Music/BruceSpringsteen cover, but they couldn't get the rights, so they went with the famous Elvis version, which actually fits the sequence, even if it's a bit cliched), has the most hilarious {{subversion}}s of MuggedForDisguise (Homer and Flanders try to take some janitors' uniforms, only for the janitors to fight back) and SoLongSuckers (Homer and Flanders try to escape in a convertible, but everyone in the casino beats them up and throws them out of Vegas).
* Just the fact that Homer remembers Barney's birthday being on the same day as UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler's (or Lassie the dog's, depending on what version you're seeing), yet he barely knows the birthdays of his wife and kids, and doesn't even know that he has a second daughter (Maggie).
* There's a brief little moment after Homer and Ned drive past the "Welcome to Nevada" sign.

* Homer comes up with Springy, the Springfield Spring as the Olympics mascot (Patty and Selma came up with their own, Ciggy, a stick figure made of cigarettes holding an ashtray, which lost to Springy). When the Olympics bid fails, he repurposes them to sell, with ideas such as the self-flipping frying pan (which causes a grease fire when the hamburgers spatter grease everywhere), putting them on Maggie and dribbling her like a basketball and whistling "Sweet Georgia Brown". Marge demands he get rid of them, so he flushes them down the toilet (with a loud screeching noise as they're flushed).
-->'''Homer:''' ''(flushing a spring down the toilet)'' You flush one down, it swirls around, nine-hundred and ninety nine springs to flush down.\\
'''Marge:''' ''(knocking on the bathroom door)'' You're not flushing those springs down our toilet, are you?\\

'''Dr. Hawking:''' I didn't say that.\\

'''Homer:''' It burns! It burns!\\
'''Wink:''' It's loaded with wasabi!
* The entire "Battling Seizure Robots" sequence, though this came off as insensitive to some viewers, as it was parodying the "Electric Soldier Porygon" incident back when the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' series was fresh and new and the subject of a lot of controversy.
** Special mention goes to Homer walking in to join the family with no awareness as to what caused them to move on the floor like that.

-->'''Ralph:''' At my house, we call them "uh-ohs"!
* The scene after that where Milhouse is petting the firehouse dalmatian and asks if he can do tricks, but Moe tells him that the dog is so inbred that he can barely stand up.

'''Flanders''': Looks like it, run and get Daddy's exorcism tongs!\\
'''Rod & Todd''': Yay!
* When Bart goes on Focusyn, it turns out he's not the only one of his classmates on medication:

'''Lou:''' Uh... It's a tank, chief.\\
'''Chief Wiggum:''' You know what? I'm getting ''real'' tired of your excuses.
* Mrs. Krabappel's deadpan, "No. Stop. Think of the children" "plea" when Bart aims the tank cannon at the school. When he aims it at the sky (to shoot down the Major League Baseball satellite), Sideshow Mel screams "Not the sky! That's where clouds are born!" He aims it at the frame store, prompting Homer to declare "the frame store! YouMonster!"
* Moe's line after Bart is finally arrested for shooting down the satellite: "And may God help you if that thing carried The Spice Channel!"

-->'''Santa's Little Helper:''' Chewy?
-->'''Homer:''' Chewy? That's inspired!
* Homer's song about eating that parodies "I Feel Pretty" from ''Theatre/WestSideStory''; made funnier by the fact it's not as obvious until the last part:

* Homer doesn't want anyone to know he's a food critic, but Ned, who overhears him, passes it down to Maude, who passes it down to Principal Skinner, who is with Uter's parents from Germany who only want to know what happened to their son.
--> '''Uter's Father''': Quit avoiding the subject! Where is Uter?!

* While Reverend Lovejoy is castigating everyone for the end of the world:
-->'''Lovejoy:''' Judgement Day is upon us! I told you the Lord wouldn't stand for your minidresses and Beatle Boots!\\
''(in the pews, Ned Flanders is furiously struggling to remove a pair of said boots)''\\
'''Ned:''' I resisted these for thirty years, why did I wear them today?!

* The historically inaccurate Zorro movie where he maims Literature/TheThreeMusketeers, Film/TheManInTheIronMask (played by Creator/GinaGershon) and ninjas; he then humiliates the Scarlet Pimpernel (played by Creator/CurtisArmstrong) and becomes the new King of England. The end credits show there was a Robot Zorro played by Shawn Wayans and a magic taco voiced by Creator/JamesEarlJones.
** For added measure, "The Wise Nun" is played by Posh Spice, and "The Stupid Nun" is Creator/MerylStreep. And King Arthur is ''[[Creator/CheechAndChong Cheech Marin]]''.
* The "Glove Slap" montage.
** Especially the visit to Dr. Hibbert, who tries to inject Homer with a shot, but at the threat of the glove, injects himself and offers Homer a lollipop as he falls over.
** When Homer first does the slap with Snake:
-->'''Homer:''' Do you accept, or are you a coward?
-->'''Snake:''' Haha! Would a coward do this? ''[puts hand into his jacket, then waves]'' BYE! ''[runs out of the lobby]''
* "The National Weather Service says dawn is still scheduled for 6:20 tomorrow and to please stop calling."
* While fleeing the southern gentleman, Homer imagines what Zorro would do in this situation: Zorro draws his sword at the southern gentleman who, unfazed, just plains shoots him.
-->'''Homer:''' ZORRO! ''[drives off course]''
* While fleeing Springfield, they come across UsefulNotes/JimmyCarter, who's building a home for Cletus and his family.
-->'''Homer:''' C'mon, Carter, build us a house, you lazy bum.
-->'''Carter:''' You have offended me, sir. ''[reaches for glove]'' I challenge you to a- ''[Homer speeds away]'' Come back here! Why you yellow-bellied...!
* Homer calls Lenny at the plant, wanting him to deliver some plutonium so his crops will grow:
--> '''Lenny''': Plutonium? Gee, Homer, isn't that kind of risky? ''(listens)'' Yeah, I guess you're right. It's not.\\
''(Lenny heads for the mail slot, where he meets up with Carl)''\\
'''Carl''': Hey, Lenny, sending some outgoing mail?\\
'''Lenny''': You know it!\\
'''Carl''': I'll probably send some tomorrow.\\
'''Lenny''': I hear ''that''!\\
''(the two share an awkward pause and walk away)''
* Homer fighting with a cow over the last tomacco plant:
-->'''Homer:''' Hey look! A flying saucer!
-->'''Cow:''' ''[looks]'' HMM?!
* When the family lists off the chores they'll do after moving to the farm, Marge chips in "[[StepfordSmiler I'll repress the rage I'm feeling!]]" and plasters on a [[TheUnSmile smile on her face]] that looks like she's about to murder everyone.
* In what may very well be the flithiest joke in the entire series, Homer goes to a convienence store labelled as "Sneed's Feed & Seed (Formerly Chuck's)" [[labelnote:Explanation]]"Chuck's Fuck & Suck".[[/labelnote]]
!!232 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E6HelloGutterHelloFadder Hello, Gudder, Hello Fadder]]"
* Homer hitting the "snooze" button on his alarm, and a whole day goes by, wherein Bart steals some money from Homer's wallet, Marge makes her side of the bed, [[{{Squick}} Otto and his girlfriend have sex on the bed, just inches away from Homer]], after which the girlfriend ''also'' steals money from his wallet.
** Even better? The next day, Marge asks Homer to feed Maggie.
--> '''Homer''': No time to talk, Marge, I'm 26 hours late for work! (before picking up a cereal box puzzle in the style of ''Where's Waldo?'')
* Homer picks up a bowling ball and looks at it. Mr. Burns' face inexplicably materializes in front of him.
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' ''Simpson!'' ''(Grunts in disgust)'' Even for a ''bowler'', you're fat!\\
''(Beat, then)''\\
'''Homer:''' Hey, guys, is it normal for you to see your bosses' face in a bowling ball?\\
'''Carl:''' Actually, I'd say you're having a ''severe'' psychotic episode.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(mumbling in rage)'' Psychotic...what a lousy, rotten...stinking... ''(tosses ball down lane, gets a strike)'' Huh?\\
'''Lenny:''' Wow! A ''strike''! Hey, if ''that's'' psychotic, then what am I taking ''these'' for? ''(dumps an entire bottle of medicine down a trash can)''
* After Homer's fourth consecutive strike, Carl warns Lenny not to say anything that will jinx it. A moment later as Homer is preparing to bowl:
-->'''Lenny''': (''offscreen'') Miss! Miss! (''Homer and Carl glare at him'') Sorry, I was calling the waitress. (''to waitress'') Ah, this split you sold me is making me choke.\\
'''Homer''': Lenny!\\
'''Lenny''': What? I paid $7.10 for this split.\\
'''Carl''': Will you at least call it a banana split, you dumbwad?\\
'''Lenny''': Hey, spare me your gutter-mouth. (''Homer throws the ball at him.'')
** What's especially funny here is the possibility that someone at the bowling alley deliberately set the price of a banana split at $7.10 to mess with customers.
* When Homer makes the record, he throws his bowling ball through the floor, and we hear someone yell "OW!".
* '''Hans Moleman:''' "NO ONE CAN ESCAPE THE LAIR OF THE MOLES! Oh, except that way."
* Homer dressing up as Tinky Winky from the ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'', then telling Maggie that "he's all man," despite what others think.
* Homer [[EpicFail absolutely failing]] in finding Waldo on the back of a cereal box. As he asks, "Waldo, where are you?", Waldo is seen walking right behind the window, glancing at the viewer as he passes by.
!!233 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E7EightMisbehavin Eight Misbehavin']]"
* The family are at [[BlandNameProduct Shøp]] talking to a 'guy' dressed as an allen wrench:
-->'''Bart:''' Cool costume!\\
'''Allen Wrench:''' ''(robotic voice)'' [[AC: It's not a costume. They found me inside a meteor!]] ''(opens and closes his claws menacingly)''\\
'''Marge:''' Excuse me, where are your hamper lids?\\
'''Allen Wrench:''' ''(normal voice)'' Hamper lids...uh third floor. ''(turns to Bart)'' [[AC: Help, I need tungsten to live! TUNGSTEN!!]]
** It isn't really clear whether the allen wrench mascot really is an alien or if he was just messing with Bart. Either way, the gag is still pretty funny.
* "Having children is great, Apu. You can teach them to hate the things you hate. Plus, they practically raise themselves, what with the Internet and all."
-->'''Apu''': Well, perhaps it is time. I've noticed this country is dangerously underpopulated.
* When Apu and Manjula are interviewed about their octuplets:
-->'''Reporter''': Would you say you and your babies have a "love-eight" relationship?\\
'''Apu''': ''(chuckles)'' Absolutely, yes.\\
'''Reporter''': ''(whiny)'' Noooo, ''say'' it! We need a sound bite!\\
'''Apu''': ''(annoyed)'' We have a love-eight relationship.\\
''(everyone says "Awwww")''
* While Homer is watching said story on TV, where Apu and Manjula are given Pepsi B:
-->'''Homer''': Free baby cola?! Apu hits the jackpot, and I'm stuck with these juiceless one-tuplets.\\
'''Bart''': Jeez, sorry for being born.\\
'''Homer''': ''(proudly)'' I've been waiting so long for you to say that! ''(hugs Bart; after a pause, Bart shrugs and hugs him back)''
* Shortly after Apu and Manjula have octuplets:
-->'''Manjula:''' ''(looks at clock, gasps)'' Apu! You're late for work!\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, I had the most beautiful dream where I died...\\
'''Manjula:''' Oh, no, you don't! Not till they're out of college!\\
'''Apu:''' Listen, I'll die when I want to!
** But Apu is too sleepy to work at the Kwik-E-Mart:
--->'''Apu:''' ''(dazed)'' Thank you, steal again...
--->''(Ned Flanders shows up)''
--->'''Ned:''' Well, morning, Apu! How are the little blessings?
--->'''Apu:''' Oh, they're a ravenous swarm of locusts. Just eating and screaming and grabbing and poking and pulling and drooling, and two have cradle rash? How can you get cradle rash when you sleep in a suitcase?!\\
'''Ned:''' Yeah, they can be a handful... of joy!\\
'''Apu:''' Shut up!\\
'''Ned:''' They'll fill your lives with--\\
'''Apu:''' Shut up!\\
'''Ned:''' Can't put a price on a miracle!\\
'''Apu:''' I can't believe you don't shut up!
* As Apu and Homer sneak back [[ItMakesSenseInContext to the Springfield Zoo at night to rescue the Octuplets]]:
-->'''Apu:''' ''(whispering)'' These animals certainly behave strangely at night...
-->''(Cuts to a family of lemurs behaving normally)''
-->''(Cuts to a turtle swinging through tree branches at above-average speed)''

* Homer getting attacked by Cobras and a Mongoose.
!!234 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E8TakeMyWifeSleaze Take My Wife, Sleaze]]"
* The beginning:
-->'''TV announcer''': Eyyyy, remember TheFifties? Remember television, Coca-Cola, and Creator/DickClark?\\
'''Homer''': ''(gasps)'' I remember television!
* Bart teaching Homer to ride a motorcycle, styled like a father teaching his son how to ride a two-wheeler. Also a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}, because of the song playing during the montage and the fact that Homer and Bart are bonding.
* Homer riding a motorcycle at Bart's school:
--> '''Homer''': Remember to rebel against authority, kids!\\
'''Skinner''': ''(over intercom)'' Don't listen to him, children.\\
'''Milhouse''': But we already ''did''. Now I can't get it out of my head!!!\\
''(Nelson smacks him)''\\
'''Edna''': Thaaank you, Nelson.
* This exchange from when Marge is teaching the Hells' Satans how to get employed.
-->'''Meathook:''' Mrs. Simpson, I killed my pencil!\\
'''Marge:''' Broke. You ''broke'' your pencil.\\
'''Meathook:''' Right, I ''broke'' him.
* A small gag - when Bart finds a note pinned to the back of Homer's head, he removes the pin to read the note, then puts the pin back. And Homer doesn't even react.
!!235 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E9GriftOfTheMagi Grift of the Magi]]"
* The school tries to get money out of Mr. Burns with a hilariously {{Anvilicious}} play.
-->'''Principal Skinner:''' Who will eat the poisoned stew? It could be anyone... it could even be Mr. Burns!\\
'''Mr. Burns:''' This play ''really'' speaks to me!
** During the play:
--->'''Ralph:''' Hello, I'm Dr. Stupid! I'm going to remove your liver bone! ''(chops the head off a Mr. Burns dummy with a saw)'' Oops, you're dead!
--->'''Mr. Burns:''' ''(darkly)'' I never ''did'' like that Dr. Stupid...
** Then at the end of the scene, Mr. Burns pulls a lever and opens a trapdoor under the whole cast. [[RuleOfFunny They then appear through the ceiling]]. "[[NoodleIncident Oh, it's doing that thing again.]]"
* Lisa and Bart distract the Hibberts whilst Homer breaks in to steal their Funzo. He knocks over the Christmas tree and begins screaming as the dog chases him around the room.
-->'''Bart & Lisa:''' Silent night...\\
'''Homer:''' ''(screams and crashes)''\\
'''Bart & Lisa:''' HOLY NIGHT!!
* Homer's song about stealing Funzos is good too:
-->''(to the tune of "Tiny Bubbles")'' Writhing Funzos in my sack... makes me happy... make me hurt my back...''
* Creator/GaryColeman's appearance, when Bart and Lisa try to sneak past his desk:
-->'''Gary''': (''on the phone'') But the menu said "galaxy of prawns." Three prawns are hardly a galaxy. What do you mean your hands are tied? Let me talk to Mr. Quan.\\
'''Bart''': (''whispering'') I want to see how this turns out.\\
'''Lisa''': The phone's not even plugged in.\\
'''Gary''': All right. You listen to me, Quan. Hang on. I got another call. Yes, Mr. President. I can be in Washington right away.
** Lisa confronting the executives:
--->'''Lisa''': You people took advantage of trusting school children.\\
'''Jim Hope''': How did you get past Gary Coleman?\\
'''Bart''': Let's just say he's a few prawns short of a galaxy.
** Not to mention:
--->'''Lindsay Naegle''': I'm sorry, Gary, there's no longer a place for you here.\\
'''Gary Coleman''': [[Series/DiffrentStrokes Whatchu talkin' bout, Ms. Naegle?]]\\
'''Lindsay Naegle''': That is so adorable! You're rehired. ''(leaves)''\\
'''Gary Coleman''': Sucker. I knew ''exactly'' what she was talking about.
* The not-so-subtle advertising campaign: "FUNZO! FUNZO! FUNZO! If you don't have Funzo, you're nothin'!"
* Nelson winding a jack-in-the-box backwards.
* The hype for Funzo is so great that Lenny breaks the store door open so the mobs can loot the stores right away, with poor Moe getting trampled as the crowd runs out, with one of the tramplers wearing cleats.
--->'''Moe''': Now why would you wear cleats to a store?!
** This is all being watched by the executives who consider the looting means that Funzo is a rousing success, overlooking the fact that they didn't actually get any money for it since they were all stolen.

-->''(Sign switches again to read "Springfield Presbyterian Hospital")''
-->'''Homer:''' Beautiful.
* The opening, where Homer, Bart, and Lisa are watching Itchy & Scratchy while Marge tries to sneak out with their old junk.

-->'''Marge:''' Oh, this box? Nothing.
-->'''Bart:''' ''[not looking away from TV]'' You sure? You sound nervous.
-->'''Marge:''' Well, anyone would be nervous with all the economic turmoil you read about in the- ''[runs out]''
-->'''Homer:''' Stop her! She's doing something!
* Lisa playing mom to Homer and Bart.
-->'''Lisa:''' Here are your lunches, and no trading your fruit for firecrackers.
-->'''Homer:''' Aw, but Lenny just got some bottle rockets!
-->'''Lisa:''' You stay away from Lenny!
* Lisa saying "Excellent!", complete with a Mr. Burns-like hand gesture.
* Homer describing Flanders as "someone who's even ''holier'' than Jesus."
** "Maude, come quick! The Simpsons are covered with cooties!"
** Plus, Homer and Bart troll the Flanders by acting like zombies.
--->'''Homer:''' ''Braaaaaaains. Braaaaaaaaaaaaains.'' Use your brains to help us! Your delicious ''braaaaaaaaaains''....
* Homer and Bart watching ''Series/ILoveLucy'' ''really'' loudly.
--> '''Fred''': You hit here pretty hard there, Rick.
* The spirit of Creator/LucilleBall introducing herself to Lisa: "Lucy [=McGillicuddy=] Ricardo Carmichael... and I think there's some more."
!!237 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E11FaithOff Faith Off]]"

-->'''Lisa:''' [[ContinuityNod You won a Grammy.]]
-->'''Homer:''' I mean an award that's ''worth'' winning!
-->''(Words run across the bottom of the screen: "LEGAL DISCLAIMER: Mr. Simpson's views do not match those of the producers, who [[TakeThat don't consider the Grammy an award at all]].")''
** Marge mentions that there's been a lot of buzz around Lenny. Cut to Lenny [[https://i.imgur.com/upixi3v.jpg deep in concentration]].
** Plus when they leave. Homer still hasn't won anything, and takes home a large statue resembling an award instead.
--->'''Marge:''' That's not an award. It's part of the set.
--->'''Homer:''' Nothing you say will diminish this honor!
*** And then the head falls off.
** When Kent Brockman asks everyone to stand up until they hear a number greater than their age, Grandpa sits down at around eighty, [[VagueAge then stands up]] [[CloudCuckooLander again at ninety]].
* The Chinese pirates spot Homer's party on Mr. Burns' yacht:
-->'''Pirate #1:''' Looks like another homosexual party boat. They always have such nice things!
-->'''Pirate #2:''' Perhaps we should pay them a visit.
-->'''Pirate #1:''' A deadly visit?
-->'''Pirate #2:''' Well, let's play it by ear.
** "Set a course for Hidden Pirate Island, AKA Hong Kong!"

-->'''Doctor:''' Uh, no, no I'm afraid not.
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' This sounds like bad news.
-->'''Doctor:''' Well, you'd think so, but all of your diseases are in perfect balance. If you have a moment I can explain. ''(He displays a door and a series of plushies.)'' Here's the door to your body, and these are oversized novelty germs. That's influenza, that's bronchitis, and this cute little cuttle bug is pancreatic cancer. Here's what happens when they all try to get through the door at once. ''(He pushes the plushies through the door, mimicking Film/TheThreeStooges sound effects.)'' Woop-woop-woop-woop-woop!

* This exchange between Mr. Burns and Smithers, after the medical check-up:
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' [[NoodleIncident Do they know how many eggs it laid in your brain?]]

-->'''Homer:''' I wanna be rich! ''(sobs)'' Like THESE GUYS! And look at all these rich people here! Not as rich as they ''should'' be, of course, BUT STILL RICH! Big money! Look at all the names!

'''Homer:''' Sure, sure, Bob's your uncle...
* The first few days on the island, where he's already committed to getting himself high off poison tree frogs to make the time go faster, to, as the dialogue implies, hasn't been going that well. The third lick we see him try gets him ''really'' toasted, and from a POV shot of Homer looking at the frog he's just licked, we see the frog talking in a warped, faded Marge voice, its eyes darting nervously. This naturally freaks Homer out, who, to his astonishment upon lowering the frog, discovering Marge trying to contact him on a ham radio.

They simply used a recording of him pitched up because ''Creator/JulieKavner genuinely couldn't pull off a scream like that''.
* This line which Tony Hawk states in the DVDCommentary, he still uses to this day.
-->'''Tony Hawk:''' You're going down, Homer. Then up. Then down. Then back up again. That's how the game is played.

'''Homer:''' Why not before?
** Said congressman (from the South, by the way) wakes up at the meeting and says, "I don't wanna fight no Union!"

* The spoof of the opening sequence, where the now-obese Bart is buying snacks from a vending machine instead of writing on the chalkboard. When the bell rings, it takes forever to reach the entrance. As he skateboards, the ground underneath him cracks, he bends the streetlight he usually grabs, makes Marge's car spin out of control, and as he gets home, he lands on Homer's car, making him fly out. Finally, as the other Simpsons sit down on the couch, they look at each other, wondering where Bart is.
-->'''Bart:''' ''(groaning, clutching his chest)'' My heart! It hurts so much! Like it's caught in a vice!

* Barney had been distraught the entire night, since he wasn't allowed to drink while everyone else was living it up at Moe's Tavern. Then the Duff Beer Party Brigade decides ''that night'' to show up ''specifically'' for Barney. You can sympathize with his dismayed "[[OhCrap Oh, no...not tonight! Not TONIGHT!]]".
-->''(Everyone in the bar chanting for Barney to chug the big mug of Duff Extra Cold)''\\
'''Barney:''' ''(at RageBreakingPoint)'' '''I CAN'T! ''[[FreakOut I'M THE DESIGNATED DRIVER]]!'''''\\
''(Moe's Tavern comes to [[MoodKiller an immediate grinding halt]])''\\

''(All patrons but Barney cheer)''
* Homer is drunk and dropped off at his house by (designated driver) Barney Gumble and he says:
-->'''Homer:''' ''(slurring)'' Goodnight, Barney. Don't forget to bring back my car back tomorrow. Just slide it under the door.\\
'''Barney:''' ''[[SanitySlippage (disturbingly calm)]]'' Yeeeess. ''(click)'' Tomorrow.
* Homer describes to the family his first trip to New York City (presumably sometime in the mid-70's judging by the film quality and appearance of the city). He was on his way to the Harrisburg coat outlet to buy an irregular coat, but it required a stopover. While in the borough of Manhattan, Homer is robbed three times in a row (one of those by a cop), a seagull steal his hot dog, garbage is dumped on him by a young Creator/WoodyAllen, and he falls into a sewer while getting chased by a pimp.
-->'''Homer:''' ...and that's when the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]] came at me.
** It really helps that the flashback sequence is set to Scott Joplin's famous piano piece The Entertainer and that Marge adds "That's what everyone thinks of New York when they only focus on the pimps and the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]]".
* The two people in the original World Trade Center towers who shout to Homer. One of them says they stick all the jerks in Tower 1.[[note]](Which is inaccurate as he was shouting from the North Tower which was known as Tower 1.)[[/note]]
** And then the camera pans up to reveal another guy with a clothesline spanning between the towers telling both of them to shut up.
* Homer has a miserable attempt of trying to go to an Original Famous Ray's pizza shop to get a slice of pizza ''without'' leaving his vehicle.[[note]](In real life, the place would be on Church St.)[[/note]]
* The entire scene of Homer and the Klav Kalash cart. Especially funny is "No bowl. Stick. STICK!" and Homer's reaction to the offer of Mountain Dew or crab juice for a drink - "Blecch! Oh, geez... [[TakeThat I'll take a Crab Juice]]." He proceeds to drink at least a dozen of them.
* Homer's ImagineSpot of Flushing Meadows is quite humorous.
* Homer running up both World Trade Center towers (first the South, then the North) to use the men's restroom, only to get his car ticketed again while doing so, leading him to yell "D'oh" loud enough that the entire city hears.
* ''Kickin' It: A Musical Journey through the Betty Ford Center'' has the ''You're Checking In'' song.
* While Marge and Lisa forlornly look at expensive shoes, Bart walks off on his own and sees a building holding the offices of [[Magazine/{{MAD}} MAD Magazine]].
-->'''Bart:''' Excuse me, is this MAD Magazine?\\
'''Receptionist:''' No, it's Mademoiselle. We're buying our sign on the installment plan.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(laughs)'' Seriously, though, my name is Bart Simpson. My father has a subscription. I'd like the grand tour, please.\\
'''Receptionist:''' Listen, kid, you probably think lots of crazy stuff goes on in there. But this is just a place of business.\\
'''Bart:''' Oh. Okay. \\
''(Bart turns to leave when Alfred E. Neuman pokes his head out of a door, revealing a lot of crazy stuff going on in the next room)''\\
'''Alfred E. Neuman:''' ''(to the receptionist)'' Get me Kaputnik and Fonebone! I wanna see their drawings for the 'New Kids on the Blech.' ''(Bart's jaw drops)'' And where's my furshlugginer pastrami sandwiches?\\
'''Bart:''' Wow! I will never wash these eyes again.
* Driving through New York with the clamp still on his car, with everyone yelling at him, Homer shouts shut up and turns on the radio to drown them out. However, the song that comes on is Ray Stevens' "Everything Is Beautiful", which instead makes Homer so angry he literally kicks in the radio.
* Homer attempts to get the boot off his car, which including stealing a construction worker's jackhammer.
-->'''Homer:''' ''(to the worker who can't hear him because of the noisy jackhammer)'' Hey! ''Hey!'' '''''HEY!!!'''''\\
'''Worker:''' WHAT?!\\
'''Homer:''' The boss says you're fired.\\
'''Worker:''' I'll get him!
* Homer then steals his jackhammer and attempts to use it to get the boot off his car, but just succeeds in ruining his car further. He eventually gets it off and is pleased with himself, but then steps on it, getting it stuck on his foot. He has to kick his car to get it off. All the while, New Yorkers are screaming at him to stop blocking the traffic.
-->'''Homer:''' Thanks for your patience! ''(gunshot hits a street sign, causing Homer to scream and drive off, further damaging the car)''
!!180 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E2ThePrincipalAndThePauper The Principal and the Pauper]]"
* For as much flak as that episode got for ruining Principal Skinner's continuity, there's an utterly hilarious moment when the real Seymour Skinner is dealing with his mother. Agnes has been used to having Seymour under her thumb her whole life, so when the new guy actually disobeys her, her reaction is pure gold.
* Armin Tamzarian (the "Principal Skinner" impostor) yelling, "Up yours, children!" as he leaves Springfield.
* Homer's reaction to the news that Principal Skinner is really Armin Tamzarian:
-->Keep looking shocked and move slowly toward the cake.
** Meanwhile everyone gasps at TheReveal, while Bart quietly sniggers at the name, clearly annoying Armin.
* A teenaged Armin attempting to take on the Vietcong with a switchblade.
* Armin attempting to find work in Capital City and ends up doing sidealk advertising for a sleazy strip joint. His deadpan delivery of the promotional flyer is just gold, especially when he says [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud "wink suggestively" out loud]]
* The Simpsons and Agnes going all the way to CC to get Armin back, only to find him a washed up drunk in a run down apartment.
* The town's solution to allowing Armin to retake his old position while also letting the real Skinner preserve his dignity as thanks for his military service? Tie Skinner up and ride him out of town on a rail.
--> '''Homer''': And we salute you! Now don't come back!
* When the Simpsons, Edna and Agnes are driving to Capitol City:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, once more. Where are we going?\\
'''Edna:''' To Capitol City.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are you and the old lady in the car?\\
'''Agnes:''' We're going to talk Armin Tamzarian into coming back.\\
'''Homer:''' And why is Marge here?\\
'''Marge:''' I came up with the idea.\\
'''Homer:''' And why am I here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because the streets of Capitol City are no place for three unescorted ladies.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are the kids here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because we couldn't find Grandpa to sit for them.\\
'''Homer:''' Then why is Grandpa here?\\
'''Grandpa:''' Because Jasper didn't want to come by himself.\\
'''Jasper:''' ''(nods)''\\
'''Homer:''' Eh, fair enough.
* Skinner asking Bart to recite the pledge of Allegiance:
-->'''Bart:''' Hey America. You're so fine, you're so fine you blow my mind, America. ''(armpit noise, everybody laughs)''

-->'''Homer:''' Wow, think of all the possibilities... ''(in a thought bubble, Lisa is given a medal)''\\
'''Imaginary Announcer:''' Lisa Simpson has won the Nobel Prize...\\
'''Homer:''' Nah... ''(Image changes to show Lisa, now wearing a gi, getting a medal)''\\
'''Imaginary Announcer:''' Lisa Simpson has won the Nobel Prize... for kickboxing!\\
'''Imaginary Lisa:''' Hi-Ya! ''(Lisa kicks the presenter)''\\
'''Homer:''' ''(intrigued)'' Hmm...
* Skinner accidentally introduces himself to the first graders as Principal Sinner, much to their amusement.
-->That's it, I've lost them forever.
* Abe's addition to the story:
-->'''Marge:''' Well, Grampa, as long as you're here, we were telling a story that happened when Bart was five and Lisa was three.\\
'''Abe:''' Oh, I know this story. The year is nineteen ought six. The president is the divine Ms. Sarah Bernhardt, and all over America, people were doing a dance called 'The Funky Grampa.' (''singing'') Oh, I'm the-- ''(falls asleep mid-sentence, still on his feet)''
** His later addition has him blurting out "I realized I could make money selling my medication to deadheads."
* Later in the flashback, Springfield is suffering a major heatwave:
-->'''Ned Flanders:''' Uh, Homer?\\
'''Homer:''' What, Flanders?\\
'''Ned:''' Well, sir, I hate to be a suspicious Aloysius, but DID YOU STEAL MY AIR CONDITIONER?! ''(cut to footprints leading from a gaping hole in Ned's wall to the Simpsons' where the air conditioner is propped up with planks and duct taped to the wall)''\\
'''Homer:''' I'll admit it looks bad, Flanders. But doesn't the Bible say "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"? ''(Homer gets hit by a stone thrown by the 5-year-old Rod Flanders)'' Ow!\\
'''Rod:''' Got him, Dad!
* Kent Brockman on TV talking about the heat wave:
-->'''Kent:''' And so Springfield's heat wave continues, with today's temperature exceeding the record for this state, set way back four billion years ago when the earth was just a ball of molten lava.
* Right before 5-year-old Bart goes off to school, Homer tells Bart something he should know.
-->'''Homer:''' Now, son, on your first day of school, I'd like to pass along the words of advice my father gave me.\\
''(Homer thinks back to when he was 5-years-old)''\\
'''Flashback Abe Simpson:''' Homer, you're dumb as a mule and twice as ugly. And if a strange man offers you a ride, I say take it!\\
'''Homer:''' ''(back in present)'' Lousy traumatic childhood!
* Bart's kindergarten teacher's discourages Bart's potential.
-->'''Teacher:''' ''(reading a book)'' And the ugly duckling was amazed to realize it had grown into a beautiful swan. So you see, children, there is hope for anyone.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(raises hand)'' Even me?\\
'''Teacher:''' No.
* Homer seeing [[ImagineSpot his sisters-in-law melt during the heat wave while Homer relaxes in his living room with air-conditioning]].
* Homer comes up with an emergency solution while the air conditioner is broken: Snowball 1 waving a paper fan over a block of ice.

''(Snowball 1 yowls angrily)''
* Bart decides to embrace the attention he gets as a class clown:
--> '''Skinner:''' You just started school, and the path you take now may be the one you follow for the rest of your life. Now, what do you say?\\
''(Bart looks at his classmates, and gets a smile)''\\
'''Bart:''' Eat my shorts.\\
'''Skinner:''' All right, I'll-- ''(aghast)'' Eat your shorts?!\\
'''Bart:''' Yeah, eat my shorts! [[Series/Batman1966 Buttman! Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, Buttman!]]\\
'''Skinner:''' ''(appalled)'' "Buttman"?! ''(drags Bart away)''
* When Homer's imagining playing a foosball table at a museum:

-->'''Homer:''' Uhmm, 2 bucks... [[{{Understatement}} and it only transports matter]].....uhm, well... I'll give you 35 cents.\\
'''Professor Frink:''' Sold!
* Homer's LaboriousLaziness with the transporter, such as moving it to the bathroom upstairs for [[ToiletHumour the sole purpose of being able to take a leak from downstairs]] (thankfully, Marge stops him) and moving it to the kitchen so he can reach for beer from the fridge while watching TV (although he accidentally takes the cat's ear medicine instead; not that he notices).
** Homer's demonstration of how they can bypass the stairs with it. As he emerges at the top, MysteriousMist [[Film/TheFly1986 swirls about]], but also some smoke from the ablaze seat of his pants (again, not that he notices).
* Homer accidentally punches Lisa in the face -- through the transporter! ("It was your mother!") Made even funnier upon realizing where the other booth is: Homer had just moved it to the toilet! The writers later admitted that they forgot about this detail when they wrote the sequence.
* "Have you forgotten our little 'Kerblammo!' talk?"
* Bart as a fly pretends to be caught in a spider's web, in a reference to the ending of [[Film/TheFly1958 the original film]]... but as the spider approaches, he reveals he's only pretending to be stuck, calling it a sucker before he bitchslaps the spider in the face. As he flies off, the spider shakes its fists at him with four of its legs.
* When Bart!Fly explains to Lisa that Fly!Bart isn't really him as everyone assumed, Lisa's pretty upset: "And I let him use my toothbrush!"
* Homer chasing Bart with an axe at the end (after he and the fly are switched back) for messing with the teleportation machine. His lines are hilarious.

* The townspeople find the soccer game so boring that they riot.
** Kent Brockman commentating on the game in the most bored manner possible, while his South American counterpart commentates in an excitable manner.
** Groundskeeper Willie and his Scottish friends think the riot isn't violent ''enough'', and soon join in.
* Homer has to wait five days before he can legally get his gun. [[TimePassesMontage The waiting period montage]], with Music/TomPetty's "The Waiting" playing, has him sitting in front of his house seeing all the things he wants to shoot, but can't: a family of bunnies, a line of baby ducks, a Target store truck, Patty and Selma on a tandem bike, and Ned Flanders on a riding mower (for extra ComedicSociopathy points, Flanders passes by at least twice).
** Homer's best line of the episode is when he learns about the waiting period.
--->'''Homer:''' Five days? But I'm mad now!
* Homer has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tfZ5iwb-mI bizarre]] ImagineSpot when he ponders what would happen if he used to use his gun to rob the Kwik-E-Mart. He becomes a Southern U.S. Senator with a giant plantation, with Marge go-go dancing in a bikini.
-->'''Homer:''' I'll do it! I'll rob the Kwik-E-Mart! All right, put your-- ''(he is then seen driving away from the store, with a sandwich in his hand)'' D'oh! Oh well, I'll rob it next time. ''(takes a bite out of the sandwich)''
* Homer bought a gun, and Marge does not like that:
-->'''Marge:''' I don't want any guns in the house Homer, they only cause accidents! Remember when Maggie shot Mr. Burns?\\
'''Homer:''' [[DiscontinuityNod I thought Smithers did it.]]\\
'''Lisa:''' That would've made a lot more sense...
* Homer turns out to be more of a gun nut than the NRA. Double points when he turned on the TV by shooting it with his gun...and the show that came on had a cowboy fall off a roof after getting shot. Let's put it this way: you ''know'' you're in trouble when you're told off by a crabby old lady, a mobster, a hick, your cynical, sleazy bartender friend, and a local kids' show host whose life behind camera is a miserable, seedy one.
-->'''Agnes:''' ''(with her typical motherly sternness)'' I've never seen such recklessness.\\
'''Louie:''' [[HypocriticalHumor You might have hurt somebody]].\\
'''Cletus:''' [[HypocriticalHumor Are you some kind of mo-ron]]?\\
'''Homer:''' Yeah, but--\\
'''Krusty:''' Listen, yutz. Guns aren't toys. They're for protecting your family, hunting dangerous or delicious animals, and [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike keeping the King of England out of your face]].
* Homer gets Lisa's ball down by shooting it. She looks hilariously sad as it deflates. He then asks if she would like him to get the cat down, to which she hastily declines.
* Bart discovers the gun hidden in the veggie crisper in the fridge and decides to play William Tell with Milhouse. Milhouse holds the apple ''[[TooDumbToLive in his mouth]]''.
-->'''Milhouse:''' ''(Takes apple from his mouth)'' JINX!
* This MoodWhiplash at the second act break:
--> '''Homer''': So, this is the thanks I get for defending my family? Then go. I'll be just fine. ''(pause)'' ...Do you know how to cook dinner?\\
'''Milhouse''': ''(excitedly)'' ''Do'' I?! ''([[https://frinkiac.com/video/S09E05/ZFaCnkYZW9lO70sVAnBhiJardHc=.gif gets out pots and pans]])''
* In the DVDCommentary, everyone on it realizes that John Swartzwelder hasn't done a commentary yet, so they call him up during recording, and say that they hope that he doesn't sue them after they hang up.

* At the health fair, Abe, Jasper, and Old Jewish Man go for a hearing test.
-->'''Maude:''' You just raise your hand when you hear the tone.\\
'''Old Jewish Man:''' You can't tell me what to do!\\
''[Maude turns on the hearing test, which begins emitting a loud tone that none of the old men react to. She turns it up, and still no reaction]''\\
'''Abe:''' Nothing yet!\\
''[Maude turns the test up even higher, causing people in the background to cover their ears as they run off. Jasper starts to raise his hand, but Abe shakes his head and so he puts his hand back down]''
* Smithers' stint as a sports announcer in high school ("Okay, that's it for the women's gymnastics team. [[HoYay Now let's bring on the men!"]])
* Homer chases Bart around the backyard -- not because Bart did something wrong (though Bart does think this), but because Homer wants a hug from him.
* Nelson's line after it's announced that Bart will be the new quarterback: "I won't give you a 'B', but I'll tear ya a new 'A'"
* Joe Namath's entire guest appearance.
--> '''Joe''': There's only one thing you need to know in order to be a great quarterback.\\
'''Joe's wife''': Joe, honey, I fixed It. It was just vapor lock.\\
'''Joe''': Oh, oops. Hey, I gotta run. Remember what I told you.\\
'''Bart''': I'm dead.
* During one of Homer's games as the coach, he uses an old-school atomic football board to plan his team's strategy:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, half of you vibrate one way, half of you vibrate the other way, and Nelson, you just spin around in a circle.
* Lisa tells Ned she wants to be on the team.
-->'''Lisa:''' That's right. A girl wants to play football! How about that?
** When she finds out that there's already girls on the team, she's not interested anymore. She tries to save face by claiming that of course she wouldn't want to throw around the skin of a dead pig. When Flanders says that the footballs are made of synthetic leather and the proceeds are donated to charity, Lisa runs away crying at not having the moral high ground.
* Homer calls into the talk radio station and asks them a question about Flanders. They immediately hang up.
* Homer's flashback reveals that he was very good at sports in high school.
* Homer calls Mr. Burns and telling him, while repeatedly winking, that he's quitting his job. He screams when Marge tells him the winks don't translate through the phone.
* At one point, Nelson is forced to catch his own Hail Mary pass. Upon reaching the endzone, while out of breath, he says he needs to quit smoking.
** Then it's revealed that Springfield is absolutely ''trouncing'' [[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill Arlen, Texas]].
--->'''Hank Hill:''' We drove two thousand miles for ''this''?
* Marge asks Grampa if he's proud of his son managing a team in the championship game. His response? "You'd think so, wouldn't ya." Then he falls asleep.
* Homer cutting kids from the team, and then again over the closing credits.
-->'''Homer:''' ''[over Gracie Films logo]'' You're cut too, Shushie!

* At the bachelor auction, Moe is introduced by Krusty thusly: "Our next bachelor likes women who take their clothes off FOR MONEY!" Moe proceeds to walk onstage to {{Death Glare}}s from every woman in the audience, and without stopping, he walks straight to the "Rejects" section.
-->'''Moe:''' [[StepfordSmiler Why do we have to stand here? This is SO humiliating!]]
* The montage of Apu getting different wild haircuts, which are all given thumbs up by Homer.
* '''Apu:''' ''(Entering the Simpsons' house with his mother from India)'' Honey, I am in my home!
* Homer's advice to Apu after the secret about Marge not really being Apu's wife is revealed to his (Apu's) mother.
-->'''Homer:''' You know what you could do, Apu?\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, shut up?\\
'''Homer:''' You could fake your own death...?\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, would you shut up?\\
'''Homer:''' All you'd need is a car bomb and--\\
'''Apu:''' [[{{Catchphrase}} I can't believe you don't shut up!]]
* Moe shows up at the wedding and Lisa offers him a flower necklace, saying it's tradition. As he bends over to wear it, Bart kicks him in the pants, citing "Tradition".
* Homer's last ditch effort to stop the wedding - impersonating Ganesha and running amuck. Blasphemy has never been so hilarious.
--->'''Apu's mother:''' There, Ganesh has been subdued.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(stuck up a tree while Milhouse and another child throw stones at him)'' Allllll willll diiiiieee...
* Lisa asking why Apu's mother is still with the Simpsons and planning the whole wedding there.
!!186 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E8LisaTheSkeptic Lisa the Skeptic]]"
* Homer falling for the "free boat" contest, which the police have instigated to get him to pay off his parking tickets. And then when he pays his tickets, he's ''still'' demanding his motorboat. Lou and Eddie clearly have no idea what to say next.
-->'''Bart:''' Dad, what's going on? Where's our motorboat?\\
'''Homer:''' I didn't like it. The mast had termites.\\
'''Lisa:''' Why would a motorboat have a mast?\\
'''Homer:''' Because... The thing was... Shut up!
* The fine for the parking tickets is also worth a mention - 235 unpaid parking tickets gets you a fine of $175, which means each individual fine is less than 75 cents. This would mean it would be cheaper to park illegally than to pay for it.
* Lisa suspects that angel might be a mutant from the nuclear power plant. Mr. Burns is quick to deny it:
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' D'oh! Fiddle-faddle, everyone knows our mutants have flippers. Oh! I've said too much. Smithers, use the amnesia ray.\\
'''Smithers:''' You mean the revolver, sir?\\
'''Mr. Burns:''' Precisely, be sure to wipe your own memory clear when you've finished.
* When they've dug up the fossil angel, Ned suggests that the whole town should own and cherish it. Naturally, Homer has already tied it to his car and tears out of there while everyone is distracted. He then proceeds to build a small shrine in his garage and charges people to see it.
* Lisa's interview on ''Smartline''.
-->'''Lisa:''' If you believe in angels, then why not unicorns or sea monsters or leprechauns?\\
'''Kent Brockman:''' Oh, that's a bunch of baloney, Lisa! Everyone knows leprechauns are extinct!
* The angel supporters rampaging through town destroying every scientific institution, including a Christian Science building.
** While destroying the museum, Moe tries to destroy a mammoth display, only for one of the tusks to fall off and crush him.
--->'''Moe:''' Oh, I'm paralyzed! [[HypocriticalHumor I just hope medical science can cure me!]]
** Everyone then sets fire to a research laboratory, and a robot comes out of the place in flames.
--->'''Robot:''' [[AC:Whyyyy!? Why was I programmed to feel pain!?]]
* After the angel skeleton has vanished:
-->'''Homer:''' Oh, no! This is a disaster! Now what the hell am I gonna do with three thousand angel ashtrays?!\\
'''Bart:''' I could take up smoking.\\
'''Homer:''' You damn well better.
* TheReveal: The Angel was actually a publicity stunt by the company that were putting up a building on the archeology site, which turns out to be a huge mall. Everyone is outraged until they find out there's a 5% sale for the Grand Opening, and immediately rushes down to buy stuff.
!!187 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E9RealtyBites Realty Bites]]"
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHhsmtWrjEI Snake's piano wire trap plan failing at decapitating Homer, but succeeding at slicing Kirk van Houten's arm off]] (originally, it was supposed to just cut his sandwich, but the writers decided it would be funnier -- and more shocking -- if they made the gag gorier).
-->'''Kirk:''' I told that idiot to slice my sandwich! '''(the wire goes through his arm, chopping it clean off)''' ...Ow!
** What really sells it is the reaction - [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction he sounds more like someone's stepped on his foot rather than sliced off his arm]].
* Lionel Hutz congratulating Marge on being so honest at her job -- then giving her a blazer that reads, "Fired"
* We see the security Springfield Prison has to prevent prisoners escaping the exercise yard: Nothing, except an unlocked gate saying "No escaping, please". A pissed-off Snake is outraged enough by Homer's poor treatment of his car he ignores it.
-->'''Snake:''' Screw the honor system, my car needs me!\\
'''Kearney:''' ''(as Snake runs out the gate)'' Hey, you're ruining it for the rest of us!
* Marge's billboard.
-->'''Homer:''' Gee, that billboard makes your butt look big.\\
'''Marge:''' I thought so too, but they said [[SexSells it sells]].\\
'''Bart:''' Works for the Lumber King.\\
''(pan to the billboard next to Marge's, advertising the Lumber King -- which has a motorized butt)''\\
'''Homer:''' ''(monotone)'' Lumber. We need lumber...
* When Hutz announces that Marge has made her first sale, he rings the bell to get everyone's attention only for the bell ringer to break and he just resorts to making dinging noises.

-->'''Staff 1:''' ''(notices the Simpsons)'' Hey, look! It's that family that ruined Christmas.\\
'''Staff 2:''' ''(uninterested)'' Whatever. ''(continues spitting)''
* Miss Hoover refuses to teach Lisa anything until she gets her money back, and demands that Lisa turn her desk around so she can stop learning. She happens to face Ralph who greets her with, "Hi, liar!"
* Krusty beating Otto to the Simpsons' medicine cabinet.
!!189 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E11AllSingingAllDancing All Singing, All Dancing]]"
* Homer and Bart find out that the gritty Western they rented is a campy musical. Made [[HilariousInHindsight funnier]] or [[FunnyAneurysmMoment worse]] by the fact that the campy Western musical they rented is based on [[Film/PaintYourWagon a real one]].
* Snake becomes so annoyed by all the music and singing that he [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou shoots everyone over the credits whenever the theme song plays]]. Of course, it's [[FunnyAneurysmMoment not all that funny now]], considering that the first name Snake shot at was Creator/PhilHartman, who was shot by his wife a few months after this episode aired.
!!190 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E12BartCarny Bart Carny]]"

'''Chief Wiggum:''' ''([[SarcasmMode sarcastically]])'' Well well, look who's here, Mr. No-Bribe. Sure, we'll help you, just sit down and wait for detective ''"Like-I-Give-A-Damn"!''\\

* "All right, all right, now, you're overstimulated. Let's get some beer in you, and then it's right to bed." Which is then followed by Homer excitedly screaming "Beer, beer, beer, bed, bed, bed!" like a hyperactive child.

'''Guy:''' What do you care? I'm telling you what you want to hear.
* Homer justifying his treatment of what he feels are stuck-up celebrities: "And when it's time to do the dishes, ''where's'' Ray Bolger? [[note]]the Scarecrow from ''Film/TheWizardOfOz''[[/note]] I'll tell ya: RAY BOLGER IS LOOKIN' OUT FOR RAY BOLGER!"

* The flashback to Grampa, Mona, and Homer at Woodstock:
-->'''Grampa:''' ''(wearing a suit and tie)'' Boo! Bring on "Sha Na Na!" ''(holds up a sign that says "Bowzer For President")''
** When young Homer is dancing nude in the mud, Grampa tells him, "Put some damn pants on and then pull 'em down, 'cause it's time for a spanking!"
* Homer's response to having accidentally destroyed the organic juice stock. "Uh... pretty freaky, huh?"

* Similar to "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS6E8LisaOnIce Lisa on Ice]]", Lisa has an ImagineSpot where she worries that if she [[FelonyMisdemeanor fails her test]], it will cost her admission into Harvard:

'''Ralph:''' She's gonna say my name!\\
'''Miss Hoover:''' ...Lisa Simpson. Zero.\\
'''Principal Skinner:''' Lisa, the president of Harvard would like to see you.\\

--> '''Willie''': Ooh, you've got yourself a partner, do ya?
* Homer mourning over his pet lobster, Pinchy, whom he accidentally boiled (he gave Pinchy a hot bath to clean off the mud on him) and eating him during dinner. Normally, it would be a TearJerker for anyone who has lost a pet, but it's funny here because Homer's stupidity (running a hot bath for a lobster) killed Pinchy and, all throughout the subplot, Homer wanted the lobster so he can fatten it up and eat it when it's all grown up rather than buy a full-sized one from the grocery store. He got what he wanted, but it ended up being a sad time, because he grew attached to Pinchy and (up until that point) decided not to raise it as food. And on top of that, as he's sobbing over the death of Pinchy, [[CrossesTheLineTwice he's eating him as well!]]
-->'''Bart:''' Are you gonna eat that all by yourself?\\
'''Homer:''' Uh-huh. Pinchy would have wanted it that way.

'''Data:''' Dah, talk about Star Wars!\\
'''Homer:''' You stupid nerds! He's trying to save you money on long distance!
* When Homer saves Mark Hamill and Mayor Quimby from rioting nerds:
-->'''Homer:''' Mr. Hamill! Mr. Mayor! Come on!\\
'''Mark:''' Who are you?\\
'''Homer:''' Homer Simpson, nerd buster! And I'm getting you outta here!\\
'''Mark:''' [''clutching his ankle''] Gaah! I can't, Homer! I twisted my ankle! You guys go on without me!\\
'''Homer:''' Never! [''picks Hamill and Quimby up''] Follow me! [''Homer kicks nerds aside as he brings Hamill and Quimby into a spaceship Hamill was in moments ago. He shuts the ship's door, then opens it a couple seconds later''] How was I supposed to know it's not a ''real'' spaceship?
** Making this even better is that it was a ''SANDCRAWLER''.
** And after they escape the building, Lisa realises that they have to go back for Maggie:
--->'''Homer:''' Forget Maggie! She's gone!\\
'''Marge:''' [''annoyed''] I've got Maggie.

'''Homer:''' Even during Ramadan?\\
'''Leavelle:''' Shut yo sasshole, boy!
** During Homer's training, he has to practice TakingTheBullet and the BigNo:
--->[''Leavelle pretends to fire a rifle at a watermelon on a podium; Homer dives in front of the bullet's path'']\\
'''Homer:''' [[BadBadActing Nooooooo.]] [''lands on ground'']\\
'''Leavelle:''' Well, your dive wasn't bad, but I just didn't believe your "NOOOOOO!" You gotta sell it! Remember, your "NOOOOOO!" is what gets you your next job! Now drop and give me twenty.\\
'''Homer:''' '''''NOOOOOOOOOO!!'''''\\
'''Leavelle:''' [''impressed''] Better.
** When the bodyguard trainees are given the watermelons they'll be protecting, Homer immediately eats his.
** And then at the "graduation ceremony" (with watermelon everywhere), Leavelle sings "[[Film/TheBodyguard I Will Always]] [[Music/WhitneyHouston Love You]]". [[DreadfulMusician Badly.]] Everyone leaves.
* As Homer is picked to be Mayor Quimby's new bodyguard:
-->'''Homer:''' WOOHOO!\\
'''Marge:''' Homer, I don't think you were listening to what they just--\\
'''Homer:''' [''grim and firm''] I said "Woo. Hoo."
* Homer using a Vulcan Pinch-type move on Bart and Lisa when they try to take some snacks before dinner. When Marge chides him, Homer uses it on her. Then he uses it on himself when he realizes he needs to kill some time, only to hit his head on the table as he collapses.
* Upon seeing the room full of rats being milked: "CRAP ON A CRUST!" And then:
-->'''Homer:''' They're milking rats! [''running out of the building''] ''MILKING RATS!!''\\
'''Mayor Quimby:''' [''to Fat Tony''] Rats?! I'm outraged! [[ComicallyMissingThePoint You promised me dog or higher!]]

'''Homer:''' Do you have a table for the mayor?\\
'''Yes Guy:''' ''Nyyyeeeeeeesss''!\\
'''Homer:''' Why do you talk that way?\\
'''Yes Guy:''' I had a ''stroooooooke''!

--> '''Chorus''': [''to the tune of "Hooray For Hollywood"''] Guys and Dolls! / We're just a bunch of crazy Guys and Dolls! / Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah, Guys and Dolls...\\
'''Mark''': This is a conceptual ''nightmare''. I mean, Nathan Detroit would never wear this. [''referencing his Luke Skywalker outfit''] And this song isn't even in the show!\\
'''Cook''': I don't have time for this. I got 75 shortcakes to strawberry. Now get out there, "Luke".
** And after Louie's very impressive tap dance solo.
--->'''Hamill:''' Hey, pal, that's ''my'' face up there next to the pepper steak, and don't you forget it.\\
'''Louie:''' You're all talk, Hamill! You never even finished Jedi school!\\

!!213 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS10E10VivaNedFlanders Viva Ned Flanders]]"
* The chase sequence, featuring Music/ElvisPresley's rendition of "Viva Las Vegas" (originally, they wanted the Music/BruceSpringsteen cover, but they couldn't get the rights, so they went with the famous Elvis version, which actually fits the sequence, even if it's a bit cliched), has the most hilarious {{subversion}}s of MuggedForDisguise (Homer and Flanders try to take some janitors' uniforms, only for the janitors to fight back) and SoLongSuckers (Homer and Flanders try to escape in a convertible, but everyone in the casino beats them up and throws them out of Vegas).
* Just the fact that Homer remembers Barney's birthday being on the same day as UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler's (or Lassie the dog's, depending on what version you're seeing), yet he barely knows the birthdays of his wife and kids, and doesn't even know that he has a second daughter (Maggie).
* There's a brief little moment after Homer and Ned drive past the "Welcome to Nevada" sign. As their car passes, the camera holds momentarily before quickly panning to a man [[NoCelebritiesWereHarmed nearly identical in appearance]] to [[Literature/FearAndLoathingInLasVegas Raoul]] [[Creator/HunterSThompson Duke]] driving a swanky-looking sports car with a joint in his mouth. In the passenger side is a man [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext with a jack-o'-lantern for a head.]] The jack-o'-lantern man asks "Raoul" if he thinks he wants to go back. "Raoul" replies with this:
-->'''"Raoul":''' Nah, too many damn kids. ''(Proceeds to drive off into sunset)''
* When Flanders wants to get out of Homer's car, Homer locks the doors and assures him that escape is impossible, only for Flanders to open the passenger side door on his own and walk out. He immediately walks into Creator/JoanRivers asking him to be in the audience of an infomercial and he gets back in the car, but as he and Homer drive away, Rivers runs up and begs him to help her because her daughter isn't talented.

'''Moe:''' ''(scoffs)'' Bye weeks! Bronco Nagurski didn't get no bye weeks. And now he's dead. [[OnSecondThought Well, maybe they're a good thing.]]
* Homer's daydream about being at the Super Bowl. The coach lost his last quarterback, and when he calls out to Homer in the stands, you think he's going to put Homer in the game, but instead he tells him: "Get your hand off my wife's leg!"
* Homer recruiting people to go to the Super Bowl, including Lenny:

'''Lenny:''' Naaah...\\

'''Homer:''' Yes! ''(hangs up)'' Now that Lenny's in, Carl will fall like a domino.

-->"I don't know if I can last that long!"
* Film/{{Rudy}} tries to hop a bus to the Super Bowl as it's pulling away:
-->'''Moe:''' Aw, crap. It's that pip-squeak Rudy.\\
'''Homer:''' What is it, Rudy?\\
'''Rudy:''' Can I come too?\\
'''Krusty:''' Forget it, kid. You're too small to go to the Super Bowl.\\
'''Rudy:''' But what I lack in size, I make up for in obnoxiousness!
* Troy Aikman as a caricature artist:

''(gears up and kicks Homer in the butt)''

!!216 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS10E13HomerToTheMax Homer to the Max]]"
* The TakeThat against animated series and TheOtherDarrin trope (which is funnier when you realize that ''The Simpsons'' voice actors were fighting with FOX over a pay raise and FOX stated that if the voice actors didn't accept the money given to them, then they would be fired and replaced with sound-alikes).
-->'''Homer:''' Oh, ''The Laughter Family''. That's a cartoon. [[TakeThat Networks like animation because they don't have to pay the actors squat]].\\
''(Ned Flanders appears in the window)''\\
''Ned:''' ''(with a completely different voice)'' [[BitingTheHandHumor Plus they can replace the voices and no one can tell the diddly-ifference]]!
* After watching ''Admiral Baby'', which is so bad it makes Homer's novelty flag wilt:

When he aims it at the sky (to shoot down the Major League Baseball satellite), Sideshow Mel screams "Not the sky! That's where clouds are born!" He aims it at the frame store, prompting Homer to declare "the frame store! YouMonster!"
* Moe's line after Bart is finally arrested for shooting down the satellite: "And may God help you if that thing carried The Spice Channel!"
* The reveal that Major League Baseball really ''was'' spying on people, and how it's covered up, both figuratively and ''literally'' by Mark [=McGuire=] distracting everyone with dingers, then shoving the papers under his hat.

* This gem of an exchange:
-->'''Marge:''' ''(nervously)'' Homer, don't go in there...my woman's intuition is telling me that something bad will happen to you if you do.
-->'''Homer:''' ''(nonchalantly)'' Oh, Marge, bad things usually happen to me everywhere!

Now that's a new one!
* From Krusty's [[BadBadActing more-than-terrible]] rendition of ''Theatre/KingLear'':
-->'''Herald:''' My liege, thine daughters Goneril, Regan, and Cordelia.
-->'''Krusty:''' ''(standing up, not even restraining a grin)'' What is this? Merry Olde England or ''Series/PetticoatJunction''? ''(Chuckles nervously)''
-->''(Audience boos him in unison)''
-->'''Krusty:''' ''(angrily)'' Hey, lighten up! It's a '''''comedy!'''''
-->'''Actor playing Herald:''' ''(whispering)'' No, it's not.
-->'''Krusty:''' ''(shocked)'' It's '''''NOT?!?!?'''''
** Krusty later discards the rest of the script and decides to improv some Shakespeare-themed jokes.
--> '''Krusty''': Knock knock! Who's there? Juliet! Juliet who? Julie Ate so much Pasta Fasool, Romeo doesn't want her anymore!\\
''(audience boos)''\\
'''Krusty''': Tough crowd! They're booing Shakespeare!
** A newspaper even carries the story - "Krusty: Worst King Lear in 400 years".
* Homer is trying to write a restaurant review without Lisa:
-->'''Homer:''' I don't need Lisa to write a good review. ''(reads)'' The food at the Gilded Truffle really... What's a good word? ''(Maggie sucks on her pacifier)'' Sucks! That's great! And the bread was really... ''(looks at Santa's Little Helper)'' Come on, help me out here!
-->'''Santa's Little Helper:''' Ruff!
-->'''Homer:''' Rough? I don't know, you've been pitching that all night.
-->'''Santa's Little Helper:''' Chewy?
-->'''Homer:''' Chewy? That's inspired!
* Homer's song about eating that parodies "I Feel Pretty" from ''Theatre/WestSideStory''; made funnier by the fact it's not as obvious until the last part:
-->'''Homer:''' I like pizza, I like bagels, I like hot dogs with mustard and beer, I'll eat eggplant, I could even eat a baby deer! La la la la la la la la la la! Who's that baby deer out on the lawn?
* Homer doesn't want anyone to know he's a food critic, but Ned, who overhears him, passes it down to Maude, who passes it down to Principal Skinner, who is with Uter's parents from Germany who only want to know what happened to their son.
--> '''Uter's Father''': Quit avoiding the subject! Where is Uter?!
--> '''Mother''': We just want closure!
* Homer having Lisa write his reviews for him.
-->'''Homer:''' Then I had the sweet, sweet chocolate mousse The only word for it is ''(drooling)''.
-->'''Lisa:''' Hmm. What's the English equivalent for ''(drooling)''? I'd say ''transcendent."

-->'''Ned:''' Ooh, that looks scrumdiddly-doodly-duddley—
-->'''Chef:''' Get lost!
-->'''Ned:''' A rude Frenchman? Well, I never!
* Later, when Lisa tries to save Homer from the deadly éclair.

* Homer's latest negative review: "So come to The Legless Frog if you want to get sick and die and leave a big, garlicky corpse! [[DamnedByFaintPraise P.S. Parking was ample]]."
* During the tour of the newspaper:
--> '''Tour guide''': And this is our comic strip department. Who here reads Mary Worth? ''(nobody responds)'' ...Let's move on.
--> *cartoonist despontently puts his head on his drawing desk*
* The tour guide takes the group past the stasis pods where Ann Landers and Dear Edna are kept for their 23 hours of daily sleep.
--> '''Ann Landers''': My advice is free us, or let us die!
* When Homer is hired as the food critic, he yells at the printer to stop the presses, causing the printing of tomorrows edition to grind to a halt.
--> '''Homer''': Okay, start the presses!
--> '''Editor''': That takes ''FOUR HOURS!!''
--> '''Homer''': Whatever, I'll be at Moe's.
* The editor on the previous food critic: "I'd hate to be married to her. I mean ''again''."
* Homer swears at an ambulance while driving the kids to the newspaper:
--> '''Homer''': Hey, you '''''[[SoundEffectBleep (BEEP)]]'''''! You cut me off! Oh yeah, '''''(BEEP)''''' you!
--> '''Lisa''': Dad, that's an ambulance!
--> '''Homer''': Oh, right. (''Horn Honks'') '''''(BEEP)''''' ambulance! Think you're so big with your '''''(BEEP BEEP)''''' siren and your letters on backwards!
* And, right after that:
--> '''Homer''': Here we are, kids: the zoo.
--> '''Bart''': Well, that's great, dad, except you were supposed to drive us to the newspaper.
--> '''Homer''': '''''D'OH!!''''' (''Echoes through the zoo and the animals run scared'')
* Lisa asks how Homer was able to get off from work to chaperone for the newspaper field trip. [[PaperThinDisguise He's set up a dummy of himself at Sector 7G, using a pail for a head, sticks with gloves on them for the arms and a tape player attached to the clothes]].
--> '''Tape''': I work hard for the money, so hard for the money. Oh, I something-something money, come on give me lots of honey!
** Mr. Burns has him promoted, but that effort is short lived. When the cassette gets to the end of one side, it causes the player to explode.
* Homer feeling pride after learning several Springfielders have become [[BigEater Big Eaters]] thanks to all his good reviews.
-->'''Homer''' (''surrounded by Lenny, Otto, Sideshow Mel, Ned, and Maude, who are now fat''): Look Marge, I'm making a difference in peoples' lives.
** Followed immediately by a fat Mr. Burns declaring he's never felt happier, only to have his shin bones collapse and express mild annoyance at it [[NoodleIncident happening again]].
* Homer's first "review":
-->'''Editor:''' [laughs]\\
'''Homer:''' Well, what do you think?\\
'''Editor:''' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe This is a joke, right? I mean this is the stupidest thing I've ever read!]]\\
'''Homer:''' What's wrong with it?\\
'''Editor:''' You keep using words like "Pasghetti" and "Momatoes" You make numerous threatening references to the UN and at the end you repeat the words "Screw Flanders" over and over again.\\
'''Homer:''' Oh, it's so hard to get to 500 words.

--> '''Stretch Dude(Bart):''' [[UngratefulBastard What do you think I've been trying to do?!]]
* The Collector (Comic Book Guy) uses [[Film/ThePhantomMenace Darth Maul]]'s double-bladed lightsaber to battle Creator/LucyLawless. He is defeated by the knowledge that he has taken the lightsaber out of its original packaging.
-->'''Lucy Lawless:''' You removed it from its original packaging!\\
'''Collector:''' No! It is no longer a collectible!\\
''(he recoils in agony, smashing through the railing behind him, into the Lucite pit he'd planned to dunk Bart and Lisa into)''\\
'''Collector:''' Lucite... hardening... must end life in classic Lorne Green pose from ''Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|1978}}''! ''(does so)'' Best... death... ever!\\

!!!C - Life's a Glitch, Then You Die:
* Creator/DickClark melting from the [[MillenniumBug Y2K disaster]] ("Oh no, it's happening!") [[HarsherInHindsight It became pretty hard to watch after his stroke in 2004 and even harder after his death in 2012, but it was a very good "Dick Clark is perpetually young" joke while it lasted.]]

* While Reverend Lovejoy is castigating everyone for the end of the world:

* Homer shows off his astronomy knowledge when he and Bart find out the rocket they've boarded goes to the Sun.

* The historically inaccurate Zorro movie where he maims Literature/TheThreeMusketeers, Film/TheManInTheIronMask (played by Creator/GinaGershon) and ninjas; he then humiliates the Scarlet Pimpernel (played by Creator/CurtisArmstrong) and becomes the new King of England. The end credits show there was a Robot Zorro played by Shawn Wayans and a magic taco voiced by Creator/JamesEarlJones.
** For added measure, "The Wise Nun" is played by Posh Spice, and "The Stupid Nun" is Creator/MerylStreep. And King Arthur is ''[[Creator/CheechAndChong Cheech Marin]]''.
* The "Glove Slap" montage.
** Especially the visit to Dr. Hibbert, who tries to inject Homer with a shot, but at the threat of the glove, injects himself and offers Homer a lollipop as he falls over.
** When Homer first does the slap with Snake:
-->'''Homer:''' Do you accept, or are you a coward?
-->'''Snake:''' Haha! Would a coward do this? ''[puts hand into his jacket, then waves]'' BYE! ''[runs out of the lobby]''
* "The National Weather Service says dawn is still scheduled for 6:20 tomorrow and to please stop calling."
* While fleeing the southern gentleman, Homer imagines what Zorro would do in this situation: Zorro draws his sword at the southern gentleman who, unfazed, just plains shoots him.
-->'''Homer:''' ZORRO! ''[drives off course]''
* While fleeing Springfield, they come across UsefulNotes/JimmyCarter, who's building a home for Cletus and his family.

-->'''Carter:''' You have offended me, sir. ''[reaches for glove]'' I challenge you to a- ''[Homer speeds away]'' Come back here! Why you yellow-bellied...!
* Homer calls Lenny at the plant, wanting him to deliver some plutonium so his crops will grow:
--> '''Lenny''': Plutonium? Gee, Homer, isn't that kind of risky? ''(listens)'' Yeah, I guess you're right. It's not.\\
''(Lenny heads for the mail slot, where he meets up with Carl)''\\
'''Carl''': Hey, Lenny, sending some outgoing mail?\\
'''Lenny''': You know it!\\
'''Carl''': I'll probably send some tomorrow.\\
'''Lenny''': I hear ''that''!\\
''(the two share an awkward pause and walk away)''
* Homer fighting with a cow over the last tomacco plant:
-->'''Homer:''' Hey look! A flying saucer!
-->'''Cow:''' ''[looks]'' HMM?!
* When the family lists off the chores they'll do after moving to the farm, Marge chips in "[[StepfordSmiler I'll repress the rage I'm feeling!]]" and plasters on a [[TheUnSmile smile on her face]] that looks like she's about to murder everyone.
* In what may very well be the flithiest joke in the entire series, Homer goes to a convienence store labelled as "Sneed's Feed & Seed (Formerly Chuck's)" [[labelnote:Explanation]]"Chuck's Fuck & Suck".[[/labelnote]]
!!232 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E6HelloGutterHelloFadder Hello, Gudder, Hello Fadder]]"
* Homer hitting the "snooze" button on his alarm, and a whole day goes by, wherein Bart steals some money from Homer's wallet, Marge makes her side of the bed, [[{{Squick}} Otto and his girlfriend have sex on the bed, just inches away from Homer]], after which the girlfriend ''also'' steals money from his wallet.
** Even better? The next day, Marge asks Homer to feed Maggie.
--> '''Homer''': No time to talk, Marge, I'm 26 hours late for work! (before picking up a cereal box puzzle in the style of ''Where's Waldo?'')
* Homer picks up a bowling ball and looks at it. Mr. Burns' face inexplicably materializes in front of him.
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' ''Simpson!'' ''(Grunts in disgust)'' Even for a ''bowler'', you're fat!\\
''(Beat, then)''\\
'''Homer:''' Hey, guys, is it normal for you to see your bosses' face in a bowling ball?\\
'''Carl:''' Actually, I'd say you're having a ''severe'' psychotic episode.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(mumbling in rage)'' Psychotic...what a lousy, rotten...stinking... ''(tosses ball down lane, gets a strike)'' Huh?\\
'''Lenny:''' Wow! A ''strike''! Hey, if ''that's'' psychotic, then what am I taking ''these'' for? ''(dumps an entire bottle of medicine down a trash can)''
* After Homer's fourth consecutive strike, Carl warns Lenny not to say anything that will jinx it. A moment later as Homer is preparing to bowl:
-->'''Lenny''': (''offscreen'') Miss! Miss! (''Homer and Carl glare at him'') Sorry, I was calling the waitress. (''to waitress'') Ah, this split you sold me is making me choke.\\
'''Homer''': Lenny!\\
'''Lenny''': What? I paid $7.10 for this split.\\
'''Carl''': Will you at least call it a banana split, you dumbwad?\\
'''Lenny''': Hey, spare me your gutter-mouth. (''Homer throws the ball at him.'')
** What's especially funny here is the possibility that someone at the bowling alley deliberately set the price of a banana split at $7.10 to mess with customers.
* When Homer makes the record, he throws his bowling ball through the floor, and we hear someone yell "OW!".
* '''Hans Moleman:''' "NO ONE CAN ESCAPE THE LAIR OF THE MOLES! Oh, except that way."
* Homer dressing up as Tinky Winky from the ''Series/{{Teletubbies}}'', then telling Maggie that "he's all man," despite what others think.
* Homer [[EpicFail absolutely failing]] in finding Waldo on the back of a cereal box. As he asks, "Waldo, where are you?", Waldo is seen walking right behind the window, glancing at the viewer as he passes by.
!!233 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E7EightMisbehavin Eight Misbehavin']]"
* The family are at [[BlandNameProduct Shøp]] talking to a 'guy' dressed as an allen wrench:
-->'''Bart:''' Cool costume!\\
'''Allen Wrench:''' ''(robotic voice)'' [[AC: It's not a costume. They found me inside a meteor!]] ''(opens and closes his claws menacingly)''\\
'''Marge:''' Excuse me, where are your hamper lids?\\
'''Allen Wrench:''' ''(normal voice)'' Hamper lids...uh third floor. ''(turns to Bart)'' [[AC: Help, I need tungsten to live! TUNGSTEN!!]]
** It isn't really clear whether the allen wrench mascot really is an alien or if he was just messing with Bart. Either way, the gag is still pretty funny.
* "Having children is great, Apu. You can teach them to hate the things you hate. Plus, they practically raise themselves, what with the Internet and all."
-->'''Apu''': Well, perhaps it is time. I've noticed this country is dangerously underpopulated.
* When Apu and Manjula are interviewed about their octuplets:
-->'''Reporter''': Would you say you and your babies have a "love-eight" relationship?\\
'''Apu''': ''(chuckles)'' Absolutely, yes.\\
'''Reporter''': ''(whiny)'' Noooo, ''say'' it! We need a sound bite!\\
'''Apu''': ''(annoyed)'' We have a love-eight relationship.\\
''(everyone says "Awwww")''
* While Homer is watching said story on TV, where Apu and Manjula are given Pepsi B:
-->'''Homer''': Free baby cola?! Apu hits the jackpot, and I'm stuck with these juiceless one-tuplets.\\
'''Bart''': Jeez, sorry for being born.\\
'''Homer''': ''(proudly)'' I've been waiting so long for you to say that! ''(hugs Bart; after a pause, Bart shrugs and hugs him back)''
* Shortly after Apu and Manjula have octuplets:
-->'''Manjula:''' ''(looks at clock, gasps)'' Apu! You're late for work!\\
'''Apu:''' Oh, I had the most beautiful dream where I died...\\
'''Manjula:''' Oh, no, you don't! Not till they're out of college!\\
'''Apu:''' Listen, I'll die when I want to!
** But Apu is too sleepy to work at the Kwik-E-Mart:
--->'''Apu:''' ''(dazed)'' Thank you, steal again...
--->''(Ned Flanders shows up)''
--->'''Ned:''' Well, morning, Apu! How are the little blessings?
--->'''Apu:''' Oh, they're a ravenous swarm of locusts. Just eating and screaming and grabbing and poking and pulling and drooling, and two have cradle rash? How can you get cradle rash when you sleep in a suitcase?!\\
'''Ned:''' Yeah, they can be a handful... of joy!\\
'''Apu:''' Shut up!\\
'''Ned:''' They'll fill your lives with--\\
'''Apu:''' Shut up!\\
'''Ned:''' Can't put a price on a miracle!\\
'''Apu:''' I can't believe you don't shut up!

-->'''Apu:''' ''(whispering)'' These animals certainly behave strangely at night...

* The beginning:
-->'''TV announcer''': Eyyyy, remember TheFifties? Remember television, Coca-Cola, and Creator/DickClark?\\
'''Homer''': ''(gasps)'' I remember television!
* Bart teaching Homer to ride a motorcycle, styled like a father teaching his son how to ride a two-wheeler. Also a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}, because of the song playing during the montage and the fact that Homer and Bart are bonding.
* Homer riding a motorcycle at Bart's school:
--> '''Homer''': Remember to rebel against authority, kids!\\
'''Skinner''': ''(over intercom)'' Don't listen to him, children.\\
'''Milhouse''': But we already ''did''. Now I can't get it out of my head!!!\\
''(Nelson smacks him)''\\
'''Edna''': Thaaank you, Nelson.
* This exchange from when Marge is teaching the Hells' Satans how to get employed.
-->'''Meathook:''' Mrs. Simpson, I killed my pencil!\\
'''Marge:''' Broke. You ''broke'' your pencil.\\
'''Meathook:''' Right, I ''broke'' him.
* A small gag - when Bart finds a note pinned to the back of Homer's head, he removes the pin to read the note, then puts the pin back. And Homer doesn't even react.
!!235 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS11E9GriftOfTheMagi Grift of the Magi]]"
* The school tries to get money out of Mr. Burns with a hilariously {{Anvilicious}} play.
-->'''Principal Skinner:''' Who will eat the poisoned stew? It could be anyone... it could even be Mr. Burns!\\
'''Mr. Burns:''' This play ''really'' speaks to me!
** During the play:

--->'''Mr. Burns:''' ''(darkly)'' I never ''did'' like that Dr. Stupid...
** Then at the end of the scene, Mr. Burns pulls a lever and opens a trapdoor under the whole cast. [[RuleOfFunny They then appear through the ceiling]]. "[[NoodleIncident Oh, it's doing that thing again.]]"
* Lisa and Bart distract the Hibberts whilst Homer breaks in to steal their Funzo. He knocks over the Christmas tree and begins screaming as the dog chases him around the room.
-->'''Bart & Lisa:''' Silent night...\\
'''Homer:''' ''(screams and crashes)''\\
'''Bart & Lisa:''' HOLY NIGHT!!
* Homer's song about stealing Funzos is good too:
-->''(to the tune of "Tiny Bubbles")'' Writhing Funzos in my sack... makes me happy... make me hurt my back...''
* Creator/GaryColeman's appearance, when Bart and Lisa try to sneak past his desk:
-->'''Gary''': (''on the phone'') But the menu said "galaxy of prawns." Three prawns are hardly a galaxy. What do you mean your hands are tied? Let me talk to Mr. Quan.\\
'''Bart''': (''whispering'') I want to see how this turns out.\\
'''Lisa''': The phone's not even plugged in.\\
'''Gary''': All right. You listen to me, Quan. Hang on. I got another call. Yes, Mr. President. I can be in Washington right away.
** Lisa confronting the executives:

'''Jim Hope''': How did you get past Gary Coleman?\\
'''Bart''': Let's just say he's a few prawns short of a galaxy.
** Not to mention:

'''Gary Coleman''': [[Series/DiffrentStrokes Whatchu talkin' bout, Ms. Naegle?]]\\
'''Lindsay Naegle''': That is so adorable! You're rehired. ''(leaves)''\\
'''Gary Coleman''': Sucker. I knew ''exactly'' what she was talking about.
* The not-so-subtle advertising campaign: "FUNZO! FUNZO! FUNZO! If you don't have Funzo, you're nothin'!"
* Nelson winding a jack-in-the-box backwards.
* The hype for Funzo is so great that Lenny breaks the store door open so the mobs can loot the stores right away, with poor Moe getting trampled as the crowd runs out, with one of the tramplers wearing cleats.
--->'''Moe''': Now why would you wear cleats to a store?!
** This is all being watched by the executives who consider the looting means that Funzo is a rousing success, overlooking the fact that they didn't actually get any money for it since they were all stolen.

* Lisa playing mom to Homer and Bart.
-->'''Lisa:''' Here are your lunches, and no trading your fruit for firecrackers.
-->'''Homer:''' Aw, but Lenny just got some bottle rockets!
-->'''Lisa:''' You stay away from Lenny!
* Lisa saying "Excellent!", complete with a Mr. Burns-like hand gesture.
* Homer describing Flanders as "someone who's even ''holier'' than Jesus."
** "Maude, come quick! The Simpsons are covered with cooties!"
** Plus, Homer and Bart troll the Flanders by acting like zombies.
--->'''Homer:''' ''Braaaaaaains. Braaaaaaaaaaaaains.'' Use your brains to help us! Your delicious ''braaaaaaaaaains''....
* Homer and Bart watching ''Series/ILoveLucy'' ''really'' loudly.

** Marge mentions that there's been a lot of buzz around Lenny. Cut to Lenny [[https://i.imgur.com/upixi3v.jpg deep in concentration]].
** Plus when they leave. Homer still hasn't won anything, and takes home a large statue resembling an award instead.
--->'''Marge:''' That's not an award. It's part of the set.
--->'''Homer:''' Nothing you say will diminish this honor!
*** And then the head falls off.
** When Kent Brockman asks everyone to stand up until they hear a number greater than their age, Grandpa sits down at around eighty, [[VagueAge then stands up]] [[CloudCuckooLander again at ninety]].
* The Chinese pirates spot Homer's party on Mr. Burns' yacht:

* The ''[[OverlyLongGag absurdly]]'' [[LongList long list of Homer's enemies]], [[CallBack most of whom are from previous episodes of the show]].

** This is more of a reversal of the fabled "Why you little" running gag where Homer normally chokes Bart over a smart alleck situation. Only this time, spending Bart's commercial money is serious business.

'''Tony Hawk:''' Stay cool, Brett!
* When Bart lifts his shirt to show off a bunch of (clip-on) nipple piercings, Marge's scream is absolutely priceless on account of it sounding ''very'' much like Homer. Why? Because, fun fact, that actually ''was'' Creator/DanCastellaneta's voice! They simply used a recording of him pitched up because ''Creator/JulieKavner genuinely couldn't pull off a scream like that''.
* This line which Tony Hawk states in the DVDCommentary, he still uses to this day.
-->'''Tony Hawk:''' You're going down, Homer. Then up. Then down. Then back up again. That's how the game is played.

'''Homer:''' Why not before?
** Said congressman (from the South, by the way) wakes up at the meeting and says, "I don't wanna fight no Union!"
* Krusty's first assignment as a representative is to clean up Capitol Hill graffiti. Among other standouts, there's "Martin Van Buren is a wiener". And also:

* Barney had been distraught the entire night, since he wasn't allowed to drink while everyone else was living it up at Moe's Tavern. Then the Duff Beer Party Brigade decides ''that night'' to show up ''specifically'' for Barney. You can sympathize with his dismayed "[[OhCrap Oh, no...not tonight! Not TONIGHT!]]".
-->''(Everyone in the bar chanting for Barney to chug the big mug of Duff Extra Cold)''\\
'''Barney:''' ''(at RageBreakingPoint)'' '''I CAN'T! ''[[FreakOut I'M THE DESIGNATED DRIVER]]!'''''\\

* Homer describes to the family his first trip to New York City (presumably sometime in the mid-70's judging by the film quality and appearance of the city). He was on his way to the Harrisburg coat outlet to buy an irregular coat, but it required a stopover. While in the borough of Manhattan, Homer is robbed three times in a row (one of those by a cop), a seagull steal his hot dog, garbage is dumped on him by a young Creator/WoodyAllen, and he falls into a sewer while getting chased by a pimp.
-->'''Homer:''' ...and that's when the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]] came at me.
** It really helps that the flashback sequence is set to Scott Joplin's famous piano piece The Entertainer and that Marge adds "That's what everyone thinks of New York when they only focus on the pimps and the [[Film/{{CHUD}} C.H.U.D.s]]".
* The two people in the original World Trade Center towers who shout to Homer. One of them says they stick all the jerks in Tower 1.[[note]](Which is inaccurate as he was shouting from the North Tower which was known as Tower 1.)[[/note]]
** And then the camera pans up to reveal another guy with a clothesline spanning between the towers telling both of them to shut up.
* Homer has a miserable attempt of trying to go to an Original Famous Ray's pizza shop to get a slice of pizza ''without'' leaving his vehicle.[[note]](In real life, the place would be on Church St.)[[/note]]
* The entire scene of Homer and the Klav Kalash cart. Especially funny is "No bowl. Stick. STICK!" and Homer's reaction to the offer of Mountain Dew or crab juice for a drink - "Blecch! Oh, geez... [[TakeThat I'll take a Crab Juice]]." He proceeds to drink at least a dozen of them.
* Homer's ImagineSpot of Flushing Meadows is quite humorous.
* Homer running up both World Trade Center towers (first the South, then the North) to use the men's restroom, only to get his car ticketed again while doing so, leading him to yell "D'oh" loud enough that the entire city hears.
* ''Kickin' It: A Musical Journey through the Betty Ford Center'' has the ''You're Checking In'' song.
* While Marge and Lisa forlornly look at expensive shoes, Bart walks off on his own and sees a building holding the offices of [[Magazine/{{MAD}} MAD Magazine]].

'''Receptionist:''' No, it's Mademoiselle. We're buying our sign on the installment plan.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(laughs)'' Seriously, though, my name is Bart Simpson. My father has a subscription. I'd like the grand tour, please.\\
'''Receptionist:''' Listen, kid, you probably think lots of crazy stuff goes on in there. But this is just a place of business.\\
'''Bart:''' Oh. Okay. \\
''(Bart turns to leave when Alfred E. Neuman pokes his head out of a door, revealing a lot of crazy stuff going on in the next room)''\\
'''Alfred E. Neuman:''' ''(to the receptionist)'' Get me Kaputnik and Fonebone! I wanna see their drawings for the 'New Kids on the Blech.' ''(Bart's jaw drops)'' And where's my furshlugginer pastrami sandwiches?\\
'''Bart:''' Wow! I will never wash these eyes again.
* Driving through New York with the clamp still on his car, with everyone yelling at him, Homer shouts shut up and turns on the radio to drown them out. However, the song that comes on is Ray Stevens' "Everything Is Beautiful", which instead makes Homer so angry he literally kicks in the radio.
* Homer attempts to get the boot off his car, which including stealing a construction worker's jackhammer.
-->'''Homer:''' ''(to the worker who can't hear him because of the noisy jackhammer)'' Hey! ''Hey!'' '''''HEY!!!'''''\\
'''Worker:''' WHAT?!\\
'''Homer:''' The boss says you're fired.\\
'''Worker:''' I'll get him!
* Homer then steals his jackhammer and attempts to use it to get the boot off his car, but just succeeds in ruining his car further. He eventually gets it off and is pleased with himself, but then steps on it, getting it stuck on his foot. He has to kick his car to get it off. All the while, New Yorkers are screaming at him to stop blocking the traffic.
-->'''Homer:''' Thanks for your patience! ''(gunshot hits a street sign, causing Homer to scream and drive off, further damaging the car)''
!!180 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS9E2ThePrincipalAndThePauper The Principal and the Pauper]]"
* For as much flak as that episode got for ruining Principal Skinner's continuity, there's an utterly hilarious moment when the real Seymour Skinner is dealing with his mother. Agnes has been used to having Seymour under her thumb her whole life, so when the new guy actually disobeys her, her reaction is pure gold.
* Armin Tamzarian (the "Principal Skinner" impostor) yelling, "Up yours, children!" as he leaves Springfield.
* Homer's reaction to the news that Principal Skinner is really Armin Tamzarian:
-->Keep looking shocked and move slowly toward the cake.
** Meanwhile everyone gasps at TheReveal, while Bart quietly sniggers at the name, clearly annoying Armin.
* A teenaged Armin attempting to take on the Vietcong with a switchblade.
* Armin attempting to find work in Capital City and ends up doing sidealk advertising for a sleazy strip joint. His deadpan delivery of the promotional flyer is just gold, especially when he says [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud "wink suggestively" out loud]]
* The Simpsons and Agnes going all the way to CC to get Armin back, only to find him a washed up drunk in a run down apartment.
* The town's solution to allowing Armin to retake his old position while also letting the real Skinner preserve his dignity as thanks for his military service? Tie Skinner up and ride him out of town on a rail.

* When the Simpsons, Edna and Agnes are driving to Capitol City:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, once more. Where are we going?\\
'''Edna:''' To Capitol City.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are you and the old lady in the car?\\
'''Agnes:''' We're going to talk Armin Tamzarian into coming back.\\
'''Homer:''' And why is Marge here?\\
'''Marge:''' I came up with the idea.\\
'''Homer:''' And why am I here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because the streets of Capitol City are no place for three unescorted ladies.\\
'''Homer:''' And why are the kids here?\\
'''Marge:''' Because we couldn't find Grandpa to sit for them.\\
'''Homer:''' Then why is Grandpa here?\\

'''Rod:''' Got him, Dad!

* Right before 5-year-old Bart goes off to school, Homer tells Bart something he should know.

''(Bart looks at his classmates, and gets a smile)''\\
'''Bart:''' Eat my shorts.\\
'''Skinner:''' All right, I'll-- ''(aghast)'' Eat your shorts?!\\
'''Bart:''' Yeah, eat my shorts! [[Series/Batman1966 Buttman! Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na, Buttman!]]\\

'''Mutant Moe:''' Get him!\\
'''Homer:''' D'oh!
* Marge expressing her hopes that the normal people and mutants can live together in harmony right before Marge, Bart, and Lisa whip out shotguns and blow the mutants away. Homer couldn't be prouder.
!!!B - Fly vs. Fly:
* Homer bartering with the Professor Frink for the matter transporter.
-->'''Homer:''' Uhmm, 2 bucks... [[{{Understatement}} and it only transports matter]].....uhm, well... I'll give you 35 cents.\\
'''Professor Frink:''' Sold!
* Homer's LaboriousLaziness with the transporter, such as moving it to the bathroom upstairs for [[ToiletHumour the sole purpose of being able to take a leak from downstairs]] (thankfully, Marge stops him) and moving it to the kitchen so he can reach for beer from the fridge while watching TV (although he accidentally takes the cat's ear medicine instead; not that he notices).
** Homer's demonstration of how they can bypass the stairs with it. As he emerges at the top, MysteriousMist [[Film/TheFly1986 swirls about]], but also some smoke from the ablaze seat of his pants (again, not that he notices).
* Homer accidentally punches Lisa in the face -- through the transporter! ("It was your mother!") Made even funnier upon realizing where the other booth is: Homer had just moved it to the toilet! The writers later admitted that they forgot about this detail when they wrote the sequence.
* "Have you forgotten our little 'Kerblammo!' talk?"
* Bart as a fly pretends to be caught in a spider's web, in a reference to the ending of [[Film/TheFly1958 the original film]]... but as the spider approaches, he reveals he's only pretending to be stuck, calling it a sucker before he bitchslaps the spider in the face. As he flies off, the spider shakes its fists at him with four of its legs.
* When Bart!Fly explains to Lisa that Fly!Bart isn't really him as everyone assumed, Lisa's pretty upset: "And I let him use my toothbrush!"
* Homer chasing Bart with an axe at the end (after he and the fly are switched back) for messing with the teleportation machine. His lines are hilarious.
--> "I'm gonna chop you good! That cost me fifty cents! You're just making it worse! I promise I won't hurt you!"

* The townspeople find the soccer game so boring that they riot.
** Kent Brockman commentating on the game in the most bored manner possible, while his South American counterpart commentates in an excitable manner.
** Groundskeeper Willie and his Scottish friends think the riot isn't violent ''enough'', and soon join in.
* Homer has to wait five days before he can legally get his gun. [[TimePassesMontage The waiting period montage]], with Music/TomPetty's "The Waiting" playing, has him sitting in front of his house seeing all the things he wants to shoot, but can't: a family of bunnies, a line of baby ducks, a Target store truck, Patty and Selma on a tandem bike, and Ned Flanders on a riding mower (for extra ComedicSociopathy points, Flanders passes by at least twice).
** Homer's best line of the episode is when he learns about the waiting period.
--->'''Homer:''' Five days? But I'm mad now!
* Homer has a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tfZ5iwb-mI bizarre]] ImagineSpot when he ponders what would happen if he used to use his gun to rob the Kwik-E-Mart. He becomes a Southern U.S. Senator with a giant plantation, with Marge go-go dancing in a bikini.

* Homer bought a gun, and Marge does not like that:
-->'''Marge:''' I don't want any guns in the house Homer, they only cause accidents! Remember when Maggie shot Mr. Burns?\\
'''Homer:''' [[DiscontinuityNod I thought Smithers did it.]]\\
'''Lisa:''' That would've made a lot more sense...
* Homer turns out to be more of a gun nut than the NRA. Double points when he turned on the TV by shooting it with his gun...and the show that came on had a cowboy fall off a roof after getting shot. Let's put it this way: you ''know'' you're in trouble when you're told off by a crabby old lady, a mobster, a hick, your cynical, sleazy bartender friend, and a local kids' show host whose life behind camera is a miserable, seedy one.
-->'''Agnes:''' ''(with her typical motherly sternness)'' I've never seen such recklessness.\\

'''Cletus:''' [[HypocriticalHumor Are you some kind of mo-ron]]?\\

'''Krusty:''' Listen, yutz. Guns aren't toys. They're for protecting your family, hunting dangerous or delicious animals, and [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike keeping the King of England out of your face]].
* Homer gets Lisa's ball down by shooting it. She looks hilariously sad as it deflates. He then asks if she would like him to get the cat down, to which she hastily declines.
* Bart discovers the gun hidden in the veggie crisper in the fridge and decides to play William Tell with Milhouse. Milhouse holds the apple ''[[TooDumbToLive in his mouth]]''.
-->'''Milhouse:''' ''(Takes apple from his mouth)'' JINX!

-->'''Maude:''' You just raise your hand when you hear the tone.\\
'''Old Jewish Man:''' You can't tell me what to do!\\
''[Maude turns on the hearing test, which begins emitting a loud tone that none of the old men react to. She turns it up, and still no reaction]''\\
'''Abe:''' Nothing yet!\\
''[Maude turns the test up even higher, causing people in the background to cover their ears as they run off. Jasper starts to raise his hand, but Abe shakes his head and so he puts his hand back down]''
* Smithers' stint as a sports announcer in high school ("Okay, that's it for the women's gymnastics team. [[HoYay Now let's bring on the men!"]])
* Homer chases Bart around the backyard -- not because Bart did something wrong (though Bart does think this), but because Homer wants a hug from him.
* Nelson's line after it's announced that Bart will be the new quarterback: "I won't give you a 'B', but I'll tear ya a new 'A'"
* Joe Namath's entire guest appearance.

'''Joe's wife''': Joe, honey, I fixed It. It was just vapor lock.\\
'''Joe''': Oh, oops. Hey, I gotta run. Remember what I told you.\\
'''Bart''': I'm dead.
* During one of Homer's games as the coach, he uses an old-school atomic football board to plan his team's strategy:
-->'''Homer:''' Okay, half of you vibrate one way, half of you vibrate the other way, and Nelson, you just spin around in a circle.
* Lisa tells Ned she wants to be on the team.
-->'''Lisa:''' That's right. A girl wants to play football! How about that?
** When she finds out that there's already girls on the team, she's not interested anymore. She tries to save face by claiming that of course she wouldn't want to throw around the skin of a dead pig. When Flanders says that the footballs are made of synthetic leather and the proceeds are donated to charity, Lisa runs away crying at not having the moral high ground.
* Homer calls into the talk radio station and asks them a question about Flanders. They immediately hang up.
* Homer's flashback reveals that he was very good at sports in high school.
* Homer calls Mr. Burns and telling him, while repeatedly winking, that he's quitting his job. He screams when Marge tells him the winks don't translate through the phone.
* At one point, Nelson is forced to catch his own Hail Mary pass. Upon reaching the endzone, while out of breath, he says he needs to quit smoking.
** Then it's revealed that Springfield is absolutely ''trouncing'' [[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill Arlen, Texas]].

* Homer's advice to Apu after the secret about Marge not really being Apu's wife is revealed to his (Apu's) mother.

'''Apu:''' Oh, shut up?\\

'''Apu:''' Oh, would you shut up?\\
'''Homer:''' All you'd need is a car bomb and--\\
'''Apu:''' [[{{Catchphrase}} I can't believe you don't shut up!]]
* Moe shows up at the wedding and Lisa offers him a flower necklace, saying it's tradition. As he bends over to wear it, Bart kicks him in the pants, citing "Tradition".
* Homer's last ditch effort to stop the wedding - impersonating Ganesha and running amuck. Blasphemy has never been so hilarious.
--->'''Apu's mother:''' There, Ganesh has been subdued.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(stuck up a tree while Milhouse and another child throw stones at him)'' Allllll willll diiiiieee...

* Homer falling for the "free boat" contest, which the police have instigated to get him to pay off his parking tickets. And then when he pays his tickets, he's ''still'' demanding his motorboat. Lou and Eddie clearly have no idea what to say next.
-->'''Bart:''' Dad, what's going on? Where's our motorboat?\\
'''Homer:''' I didn't like it. The mast had termites.\\
'''Lisa:''' Why would a motorboat have a mast?\\
'''Homer:''' Because... The thing was... Shut up!
* The fine for the parking tickets is also worth a mention - 235 unpaid parking tickets gets you a fine of $175, which means each individual fine is less than 75 cents. This would mean it would be cheaper to park illegally than to pay for it.
* Lisa suspects that angel might be a mutant from the nuclear power plant. Mr. Burns is quick to deny it:
-->'''Mr. Burns:''' D'oh! Fiddle-faddle, everyone knows our mutants have flippers. Oh! I've said too much. Smithers, use the amnesia ray.\\
'''Smithers:''' You mean the revolver, sir?\\
'''Mr. Burns:''' Precisely, be sure to wipe your own memory clear when you've finished.

* Lisa's interview on ''Smartline''.

** Everyone then sets fire to a research laboratory, and a robot comes out of the place in flames.

'''Bart:''' I could take up smoking.\\
'''Homer:''' You damn well better.
* TheReveal: The Angel was actually a publicity stunt by the company that were putting up a building on the archeology site, which turns out to be a huge mall. Everyone is outraged until they find out there's a 5% sale for the Grand Opening, and immediately rushes down to buy stuff.

-->'''Kirk:''' I told that idiot to slice my sandwich! '''(the wire goes through his arm, chopping it clean off)''' ...Ow!
** What really sells it is the reaction - [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction he sounds more like someone's stepped on his foot rather than sliced off his arm]].
* Lionel Hutz congratulating Marge on being so honest at her job -- then giving her a blazer that reads, "Fired"
* We see the security Springfield Prison has to prevent prisoners escaping the exercise yard: Nothing, except an unlocked gate saying "No escaping, please". A pissed-off Snake is outraged enough by Homer's poor treatment of his car he ignores it.

'''Kearney:''' ''(as Snake runs out the gate)'' Hey, you're ruining it for the rest of us!
* Marge's billboard.

'''Marge:''' I thought so too, but they said [[SexSells it sells]].\\
'''Bart:''' Works for the Lumber King.\\
''(pan to the billboard next to Marge's, advertising the Lumber King -- which has a motorized butt)''\\
'''Homer:''' ''(monotone)'' Lumber. We need lumber...

You're in the Naval Reserve: America's 17th line of defense, between the Mississippi National Guard, and the League of Women Voters.

* Homer mourning over his pet lobster, Pinchy, whom he accidentally boiled (he gave Pinchy a hot bath to clean off the mud on him) and eating him during dinner. Normally, it would be a TearJerker for anyone who has lost a pet, but it's funny here because Homer's stupidity (running a hot bath for a lobster) killed Pinchy and, all throughout the subplot, Homer wanted the lobster so he can fatten it up and eat it when it's all grown up rather than buy a full-sized one from the grocery store. He got what he wanted, but it ended up being a sad time, because he grew attached to Pinchy and (up until that point) decided not to raise it as food. And on top of that, as he's sobbing over the death of Pinchy, [[CrossesTheLineTwice he's eating him as well!]]
-->'''Bart:''' Are you gonna eat that all by yourself?\\

-->'''Homer:''' Mr. Hamill! Mr. Mayor! Come on!\\
'''Mark:''' Who are you?\\
'''Homer:''' Homer Simpson, nerd buster! And I'm getting you outta here!\\
'''Mark:''' [''clutching his ankle''] Gaah! I can't, Homer! I twisted my ankle! You guys go on without me!\\
'''Homer:''' Never! [''picks Hamill and Quimby up''] Follow me! [''Homer kicks nerds aside as he brings Hamill and Quimby into a spaceship Hamill was in moments ago. He shuts the ship's door, then opens it a couple seconds later''] How was I supposed to know it's not a ''real'' spaceship?

'''Homer:''' '''''NOOOOOOOOOO!!'''''\\
'''Leavelle:''' [''impressed''] Better.
** When the bodyguard trainees are given the watermelons they'll be protecting, Homer immediately eats his.
** And then at the "graduation ceremony" (with watermelon everywhere), Leavelle sings "[[Film/TheBodyguard I Will Always]] [[Music/WhitneyHouston Love You]]". [[DreadfulMusician Badly.]] Everyone leaves.
* As Homer is picked to be Mayor Quimby's new bodyguard:
-->'''Homer:''' WOOHOO!\\
'''Marge:''' Homer, I don't think you were listening to what they just--\\
'''Homer:''' [''grim and firm''] I said "Woo. Hoo."

* Just the fact that Homer remembers Barney's birthday being on the same day as UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler's (or Lassie the dog's, depending on what version you're seeing), yet he barely knows the birthdays of his wife and kids, and doesn't even know that he has a second daughter (Maggie).
* There's a brief little moment after Homer and Ned drive past the "Welcome to Nevada" sign.

In the passenger side is a man [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext with a jack-o'-lantern for a head.]] The jack-o'-lantern man asks "Raoul" if he thinks he wants to go back. "Raoul" replies with this:
-->'''"Raoul":''' Nah, too many damn kids. ''(Proceeds to drive off into sunset)''
* When Flanders wants to get out of Homer's car, Homer locks the doors and assures him that escape is impossible, only for Flanders to open the passenger side door on his own and walk out.

-->'''Dr. Hawking:''' Your theory of a donut-shaped universe is intriguing, Homer. I may have to steal it.\\
'''Homer:''' Wow, I can't believe a guy I've never heard of is hanging out with a guy like me.\\
'''Moe:''' All right, it's closing time. So who's taking the tab?\\
'''Homer:''' ''(hiding his mouth, speaking monotonously)'' I am.\\
'''Dr. Hawking:''' I didn't say that.\\
'''Homer:''' ''(still monotonous)'' Yes I did. ''(Dr. Hawking hits Homer with his spring-loaded punching glove)'' D'oh.
** Crosses into SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome territory when, years after this episode first aired, a theory was put forth that the universe was shaped like a torus, which is more or less the same as saying donut-shaped.
* Stephen Hawking tries to console Lisa:
-->'''Hawking:''' Don't feel bad, Lisa. Sometimes the smartest of us can be the most childish.\\
'''Lisa:''' Even you?\\
'''Hawking:''' No. Not me. Never.

** Before throwing him away, Homer states "As we say in my country, '[[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Hasta la vista, baby]]'". The European Spanish version of that sentence is... "Sayonara, baby".
* Homer and Bart after their stint in Japanese jail.
-->'''Lisa:''' ''Now'' can we do something Japanese?
-->'''Homer:''' Oh, I'm sick of doing Japanese stuff! In jail, we had to do this dumb kabuki play about UsefulNotes/The47Ronin, and I wanted to be Oshi but they made me Ori!

** Homer then changes the channel by using an eel as a whip.
* When the Simpson family goes on the Japanese game show, where the meet the host Wink, voiced by Creator/GeorgeTakei.
-->'''Wink:''' Now, our game shows are a little different from yours. You reward knowledge. We punish ignorance.\\
'''Homer:''' Ignor-what? ''(fire shoots out of Homer's microphone into his face, making the audience laugh)''\\
'''Wink:''' Our categories are: "Ow, that hurts!", "Why are you doing this to me?", and "Please, let me die!".\\

'''Marge:''' We'll go with "Ow, that hurt!", Skip.\\
'''Wink:''' ''(annoyed)'' My name is Wink! ''(he presses a button that lowers a skunk which sprays in Marge's face)''
* Then after Homer is a pinata and heavily beaten by the family:
-->'''Wink:''' Mr. Simpson, we'll cut you down as soon as you answer one question about Japan.\\
'''Homer:''' Is the answer "Japan"?\\
'''Wink:''' ''(looks at card)'' ...actually, it is. ''(to someone behind the curtains)'' ''Bakayarou! Dare ga kotau yattanda?''[[labelnote:*]]You morons! Who came up with that answer?[[/labelnote]]
* Their final challenge has them fall into a volcano only to find out it's fake.

'''Wink:''' Don't worry, Mr. Simpson. That "lava" is just Orange Ade!\\
'''Homer:''' It burns! It burns!\\
'''Wink:''' It's loaded with wasabi!
* The entire "Battling Seizure Robots" sequence, though this came off as insensitive to some viewers, as it was parodying the "Electric Soldier Porygon" incident back when the ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' series was fresh and new and the subject of a lot of controversy.
** Special mention goes to Homer walking in to join the family with no awareness as to what caused them to move on the floor like that.
--->'''Homer''': ''(seeing the family having seizures on the floor)'' Hmm, alright. ''(has a fake seizure on the floor)''
* Homer calls out Japanese game shows for being about punishing and torturing the contestants. Wink looks ashamed for just a second...and then, "Next up, we have a Canadian couple who are deathly afraid of scorpions!"

-->'''Shocked Executive:''' Why did Mr. Smith kill everyone?!\\
'''Homer:''' It was symbolism! He was ''mad''!
* The reception the film gets after release is even worse. As the crowd wanders out, you can hear every Springfield citizen express their displeasure, and Ned Flanders is physically ill.

-->'''Hosey:''' You're not going to start any fires, are you?
-->'''Ralph:''' At my house, we call them "uh-ohs"!
* The scene after that where Milhouse is petting the firehouse dalmatian and asks if he can do tricks, but Moe tells him that the dog is so inbred that he can barely stand up.
* The fire safety play, the script for which apparently hasn't been changed in over thirty years:
-->'''Principal Skinner:''' Fire can be our servant, whether it's toasting s'mores, or [[UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar raining down on Charlie]]. But it can turn not-so-nice, as you'll see in this skit by the volunteer fire department players.

-->'''Maude:''' Mad Dog, I've been thinking. Maybe we should get another smoke detector in case that one trips out on us.
-->'''Ned:''' ''(laughs)'' Why bother, baby? One smoke detector's enough for Mad Dog. Now let's hit the sack.

-->'''Ned:''' ''(rolling around)'' It's not working! It just spreads the flames!
* When Homer tries to get Bart to take the Focusyn-laced taffy he made, he has some for himself. The result is Homer randomly contorting himself under the drug.
-->'''Rod''': Does Mr.Simpson have a demon, Daddy?\\
'''Flanders''': Looks like it, run and get Daddy's exorcism tongs!\\
'''Rod & Todd''': Yay!
* When Bart goes on Focusyn, it turns out he's not the only one of his classmates on medication:
-->'''Bart:''' ''[holding up his prescription bottle]'' I have to take these stupid pills twice a day.\\
'''Milhouse:''' ''[holding up another prescription bottle]'' I'll trade you a Claritin[[note]] A brand of antihistamine.[[/note]] for one!\\

* As Bart infiltrates the local army base to steal a tank, two soldiers can be heard complaining.
-->'''Soldier:''' I can't believe sarge said that. I've gotta believe he's seen worse soldiers than us.\\
'''Soldier 2:''' He was just saying that to motivate you.\\
'''Soldier:''' Well, it ruined the whole hike.
* When the Springfield Police pursue Bart:
-->'''Chief Wiggum:''' Shoot the tires out, Lou!\\
'''Lou:''' Uh... It's a tank, chief.\\
'''Chief Wiggum:''' You know what? I'm getting ''real'' tired of your excuses.
* Mrs. Krabappel's deadpan, "No. Stop. Think of the children" "plea" when Bart aims the tank cannon at the school. When he aims it at the sky (to shoot down the Major League Baseball satellite), Sideshow Mel screams "Not the sky! That's where clouds are born!" He aims it at the frame store, prompting Homer to declare "the frame store! YouMonster!"
* Moe's line after Bart is finally arrested for shooting down the satellite: "And may God help you if that thing carried The Spice Channel!"
* The reveal that Major League Baseball really ''was'' spying on people, and how it's covered up, both figuratively and ''literally'' by Mark [=McGuire=] distracting everyone with dingers, then shoving the papers under his hat.

-->'''Actor playing Herald:''' ''(whispering)'' No, it's not.
-->'''Krusty:''' ''(shocked)'' It's '''''NOT?!?!?'''''
** Krusty later discards the rest of the script and decides to improv some Shakespeare-themed jokes.
--> '''Krusty''': Knock knock! Who's there? Juliet! Juliet who? Julie Ate so much Pasta Fasool, Romeo doesn't want her anymore!\\
''(audience boos)''\\
'''Krusty''': Tough crowd! They're booing Shakespeare!
** A newspaper even carries the story - "Krusty: Worst King Lear in 400 years".
* Homer is trying to write a restaurant review without Lisa:
-->'''Homer:''' I don't need Lisa to write a good review. ''(reads)'' The food at the Gilded Truffle really... What's a good word? ''(Maggie sucks on her pacifier)'' Sucks! That's great! And the bread was really... ''(looks at Santa's Little Helper)'' Come on, help me out here!

-->'''Homer:''' Rough? I don't know, you've been pitching that all night.
-->'''Santa's Little Helper:''' Chewy?
-->'''Homer:''' Chewy? That's inspired!
* Homer's song about eating that parodies "I Feel Pretty" from ''Theatre/WestSideStory''; made funnier by the fact it's not as obvious until the last part:
-->'''Homer:''' I like pizza, I like bagels, I like hot dogs with mustard and beer, I'll eat eggplant, I could even eat a baby deer! La la la la la la la la la la! Who's that baby deer out on the lawn?
* Homer doesn't want anyone to know he's a food critic, but Ned, who overhears him, passes it down to Maude, who passes it down to Principal Skinner, who is with Uter's parents from Germany who only want to know what happened to their son.
--> '''Uter's Father''': Quit avoiding the subject! Where is Uter?!
--> '''Mother''': We just want closure!
* Homer having Lisa write his reviews for him.
-->'''Homer:''' Then I had the sweet, sweet chocolate mousse The only word for it is ''(drooling)''.
-->'''Lisa:''' Hmm. What's the English equivalent for ''(drooling)''? I'd say ''transcendent."

* Ned notices the éclair at the festival which is bouncing from the butter and poison inside.
-->'''Ned:''' Ooh, that looks scrumdiddly-doodly-duddley—
-->'''Chef:''' Get lost!
-->'''Ned:''' A rude Frenchman? Well, I never!
* Later, when Lisa tries to save Homer from the deadly éclair.

-->'''Homer:''' ''(beat)'' Meh. I've had a good run.
-->'''Lisa:''' Dad! Uh, it's low-fat!

--> *cartoonist despontently puts his head on his drawing desk*
* The tour guide takes the group past the stasis pods where Ann Landers and Dear Edna are kept for their 23 hours of daily sleep.
--> '''Ann Landers''': My advice is free us, or let us die!
* When Homer is hired as the food critic, he yells at the printer to stop the presses, causing the printing of tomorrows edition to grind to a halt.
--> '''Homer''': Okay, start the presses!
--> '''Editor''': That takes ''FOUR HOURS!!''
--> '''Homer''': Whatever, I'll be at Moe's.
* The editor on the previous food critic: "I'd hate to be married to her. I mean ''again''."
* Homer swears at an ambulance while driving the kids to the newspaper:
--> '''Homer''': Hey, you '''''[[SoundEffectBleep (BEEP)]]'''''! You cut me off! Oh yeah, '''''(BEEP)''''' you!
--> '''Lisa''': Dad, that's an ambulance!
--> '''Homer''': Oh, right. (''Horn Honks'') '''''(BEEP)''''' ambulance! Think you're so big with your '''''(BEEP BEEP)''''' siren and your letters on backwards!

--> '''Homer''': '''''D'OH!!''''' (''Echoes through the zoo and the animals run scared'')
* Lisa asks how Homer was able to get off from work to chaperone for the newspaper field trip. [[PaperThinDisguise He's set up a dummy of himself at Sector 7G, using a pail for a head, sticks with gloves on them for the arms and a tape player attached to the clothes]].
--> '''Tape''': I work hard for the money, so hard for the money. Oh, I something-something money, come on give me lots of honey!
** Mr. Burns has him promoted, but that effort is short lived. When the cassette gets to the end of one side, it causes the player to explode.
* Homer feeling pride after learning several Springfielders have become [[BigEater Big Eaters]] thanks to all his good reviews.

The end credits show there was a Robot Zorro played by Shawn Wayans and a magic taco voiced by Creator/JamesEarlJones.

* The "Glove Slap" montage.
** Especially the visit to Dr. Hibbert, who tries to inject Homer with a shot, but at the threat of the glove, injects himself and offers Homer a lollipop as he falls over.

'''Lenny''': What? I paid $7.10 for this split.\\
'''Carl''': Will you at least call it a banana split, you dumbwad?\\
'''Lenny''': Hey, spare me your gutter-mouth. (''Homer throws the ball at him.'')
** What's especially funny here is the possibility that someone at the bowling alley deliberately set the price of a banana split at $7.10 to mess with customers.

--->''(Ned Flanders shows up)''
--->'''Ned:''' Well, morning, Apu! How are the little blessings?
--->'''Apu:''' Oh, they're a ravenous swarm of locusts. Just eating and screaming and grabbing and poking and pulling and drooling, and two have cradle rash? How can you get cradle rash when you sleep in a suitcase?!\\

* The not-so-subtle advertising campaign: "FUNZO! FUNZO! FUNZO! If you don't have Funzo, you're nothin'!"
* Nelson winding a jack-in-the-box backwards.
* The hype for Funzo is so great that Lenny breaks the store door open so the mobs can loot the stores right away, with poor Moe getting trampled as the crowd runs out, with one of the tramplers wearing cleats.
--->'''Moe''': Now why would you wear cleats to a store?!

--->'''Homer:''' Nothing you say will diminish this honor!
*** And then the head falls off.
** When Kent Brockman asks everyone to stand up until they hear a number greater than their age, Grandpa sits down at around eighty, [[VagueAge then stands up]] [[CloudCuckooLander again at ninety]].

* The first few days on the island, where he's already committed to getting himself high off poison tree frogs to make the time go faster, to, as the dialogue implies, hasn't been going that well. The third lick we see him try gets him ''really'' toasted, and from a POV shot of Homer looking at the frog he's just licked, we see the frog talking in a warped, faded Marge voice, its eyes darting nervously.

-->'''Homer:''' Mmm... [=McNuggets=].
* When Homer and Lisa were checking in to a motel, using shoe polish to disguise themselves.

-->'''Homer:''' You're charging HOW much for a room?
* The private investigator, Dexter Colt, trying to get information from [[TheDitz Ralph]].

-->'''Ralph:''' [[MathematiciansAnswer I once picked my nose till it bleeded]].
-->'''Colt:''' About Lisa!
-->'''Ralph:''' [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Lisa Simpson is a girl at my school]]!
-->'''Colt:''' Someone's already worked this kid over.
* When Homer and Lisa are being chased by Wiggum he thinks he has them trapped due to a sign saying "bridge out", only for them to escape over the not-out bridge and it turns out the sign was partially obstructed and actually said "Bridge Outstanding"(by Overpass Monthly) and Wiggum curses and stomps on his hat in annoyance.
* The Turbo Diary that Lisa wants and eventually gets for her birthday shocks people who are denied access. During the end credits, Bart sneaks it out of her room and tricks Homer into trying to open it.

* "Disco Stu should have disco ducked."
!!301 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS14E10PrayAnything Pray Anything]]"
* Lisa Leslie is taller than Homer. It's realistic, but it's rare to see a woman dwarf him.
* The episode features the Springfield Church's congregation having to meet in the bowling alley because Homer bought the church. Krusty bowls a ball and it accidentally lands on Reverend Lovejoy's foot, leading to this priceless moment:
-->'''Rev. Lovejoy:''' And so we celebrate the--HOLY SHI--ning light of our Lord...
* Kent Brockman reporting on Lovejoy's departure:
-->'''Kent:''' Good evening. Springfield is grappling tonight with the departure of Rev. Timothy Lovejoy, Bible nut. How is our community coping with this spiritual vacuum? Let's ask Arnie Pie in the sky.
-->'''Arnie:''' You wanna know what I see, Kent? I see a slow news day with nothing to fill it.
-->'''Kent:''' You're supposed to be filming people coping with the loss of their church.
-->'''Arnie:''' And how am I supposed to do that? Do I have a magic lens that can see into people's souls? Well, yours would be black, Kent. ''Black as the ace of spades!'' ''(a graphic stating "Techinical difficulties, please stand by" appears on the screen)''

* Bart finds a series of video tapes in the garage one of which is titled "Marge and Homer get dirty" and decides to watch it with Lisa:
-->'''Bart:''' ''(holds up the tape)'' Hey, Lis! Think you're well-adjusted? ♪''I've got something to show you~!''♪
** Turns out the tape isn't quite what Bart was expecting:
--->'''Marge:''' ''(on tape)'' I can't believe you talked me into this!\\
'''Homer:''' ''(on tape)'' It's such a mess. ''Ooh!'' Watch the teeth!\\
''(the tape shows Marge and Homer are actually carving pumpkins for Halloween and getting splattered with pumpkin gunk as a result)''\\
'''Marge:''' Now, don't go telling your buddies at work about this.\\
'''Bart:''' ''(sounding disappointed)'' Every tape is pumpkin carving!
* Bart just found out he had a commercial gig as "Baby Stink-Breath":
-->'''Bart:''' Wait, I was in a commerical?! I don't remember this at all!\\
''(Bart holds up [[CallBack a Butterfinger]] so that [[ProductPlacement the logo is clearly visible to the audience]] and then eats it)''
** Bart and informs Milhouse about his commerical work. Nelson then rides by on his bike:
--->'''Bart:''' Promise me you won't tell anyone about it.\\
'''Milhouse:''' I won't. But these things have a way of getting out.\\
'''Nelson:''' ''(while riding his bike, points to Bart and looks at him)'' Ha-ha! Baby Stink-Breath! ''(he crashes into a tree because he was still looking at Bart)'' Daaah! Gruuh! It was {{worth it}}.
* Before informing Milhouse, Bart attempts to choke Homer over the fact that he used the money from the commercial to buy back incriminating photos of him accidentally dropping Bart as a baby. When his hands were too small, he pulls out Homer's Belt and strangles him with it.
** This is more of a reversal of the fabled "Why you little" running gag where Homer normally chokes Bart over a smart alleck situation. Only this time, spending Bart's commercial money is serious business.
* The sequence with Music/Blink182:
-->'''Tony Hawk:''' Yo, Blink 182!\\
''(they stop playing)''\\
'''Tom [=DeLonge=]:''' [[NoNameGiven We have names, y'know!]]\\
'''Tony Hawk:''' Whatever! Crank it up!\\
''(they start playing again)''\\
'''[[AscendedFanboy Mark Hoppus]]:''' Man, let's trash this place!\\
'''Travis Barker:''' ''After'' we get paid.\\
'''Mark Hoppus:''' Nice!
* Bart trying and failing to keep that he knows Tony Hawk low profile.
-->'''Bart:''' Thanks for the lift Tony Hawk, I gotta go now Tony Hawk. ''(to Milhouse)'' Cool guy, Tony Hawk.\\
'''Milhouse:''' Bart, you know Tony Hawk?!\\
'''Bart:''' Please, I'm trying to keep it low profile. ''(to Tony Hawk)'' Catch you later Tony Hawk!\\
'''Tony Hawk:''' Stay cool, Brett!
* When Bart lifts his shirt to show off a bunch of (clip-on) nipple piercings, Marge's scream is absolutely priceless on account of it sounding ''very'' much like Homer. Why? Because, fun fact, that actually ''was'' Creator/DanCastellaneta's voice! They simply used a recording of him pitched up because ''Creator/JulieKavner genuinely couldn't pull off a scream like that''.
* This line which Tony Hawk states in the DVDCommentary, he still uses to this day.
-->'''Tony Hawk:''' You're going down, Homer. Then up. Then down. Then back up again. That's how the game is played.
!!303 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS14E12ImSpellingAsFastAsICan I'm Spelling as Fast as I Can]]"
* When Bart is asked to spell the word "imply", Nelson jokingly interprets his statement of "I-M-P" as Bart saying that he is [[ToiletHumour made of pee]]. Ralph then says that he made Bart in his pants. Later, Lisa is asked to spell "impune" and Bart attempts to make the same joke about her, but Nelson hits Bart on the head and yells "Shut up, pee!"
!!304 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS14E13AStarIsBornAgain A Star is Born Again]]"
* When Ned realizes that he's got a date with a movie star, an Irish security guard walks past and snarks at him.
-->'''Ned:''' Sara Sloane?! I've got a date with a movie star?!\\
'''Guard:''' Sure you do, and I'm going apple picking with [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Scooby Doo]]. Twoi twoi twoi twoi.
* When Sara's wearing a somewhat revealing outfit, Homer drolls a little over her and drops his nachos when he trips over. He swaps between whining over his nachos and drooling over Sara's breasts. Made even funnier when, hours later, he's still doing it.
!!305 - "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS14E14MrSpritzGoesToWashington Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington]]"

-->'''Homer:''' Uh, I see, a bad moon rising.
-->'''Marge:''' That's CCR!
-->'''Homer:''' Looks like we're in for nasty weather?
* When Homer and Marge attempt to sell their house due to the airplanes flying over it.
-->'''Ralph:''' ''(to Homer)'' I'll give you a milk and 3 crayons for your house.
-->'''Cookie Kwan:''' It's a good deal. I advise you to take it.
-->'''Homer:''' Make it a chocolate milk and you got a deal.
-->'''Ralph:''' I'm walking away. ''(walks away)''
* Lisa's waiting for the right distraction to slip an important bill into congress.
-->'''Homer:''' ''(bursts in on the ground floor, drunk)'' You call this a bicameral legislature??! ''(spits on the floor, and gets immediately assaulted by security, including whaling on his groin)'' OOOH--I say, I say, my groin!!
** The reason why Homer was drunk was because his job was to get a congressman too drunk to oppose the project. It was kind of easy.
-->'''Congressman:''' Hey want to have a drinking contest with me after the vote?\\
'''Homer:''' Why not before?
** Said congressman (from the South, by the way) wakes up at the meeting and says, "I don't wanna fight no Union!"
* Krusty's first assignment as a representative is to clean up Capitol Hill graffiti. Among other standouts, there's "Martin Van Buren is a wiener". And also:
-->'''Krusty:''' Grover Cleveland sucks ''what''?
-->'''Other Representative:''' Leave it! Lest we forget...
* Krusty's United Nations sketch.

* Marge blurting, "[[Series/SaturdayNightLive Live from New York, it's Saturday Night]]!" in her sleep-deprived stupor.
* Milhouse's boasts that when he grows up he'll be a star MLB hitter...then we see a montage of him constantly striking out, before switching to T-ball, throwing the bat, etc. until he finally lightly bumps the ball of the tee into the dirt, then immediately trips while attempting to start running the bases.

-->'''Rod and Todd:''': That's us! Hooray!
* Moe forcing Music/DavidByrne to write and sing his song. Moe's song itself:
-->'''Moe''' (to the tune of "More More More"): Moe Moe Moe! How do you like me? How do you like me? Moe Moe Moe! Why don't you like me? Nobody likes me.
* Why is a shelf of pamphlets at the Simpsons home? When the Simpsons saw it at the motel, Homer noticed it said, "Take One"!
* The dude ranch is set up on the site of an 1881 battle where 56 Indians were killed and 4 Americans lost there hats. Guess which ones the ranch gives respect to.

* A good escalation of BreadEggsMilkSquick.

-->'''Spangler:''' ''(to Homer)'' What are you eating now?
-->'''Homer:''' Cheeseburger.
-->'''Spangler:''' You're a catastrophe. Let me have half of it.
-->'''Homer:''' I don't wanna.
-->'''Spangler:''' I just want the cheese, I don't want the meat. I do want the meat.
-->'''Homer:''' Here's a corner.
-->'''Spangler:''' Let me just bite it, don't rip it! Let me have the whole thing, you'll get some later.
-->'''Homer:''' You're a selfish jerk.
-->'''Spangler:''' I've smelled it, it has to be eaten!
-->'''Homer:''' But it's my burger!
-->'''Spangler:''' I'm driving. I'll kill us!
-->'''Homer:''' ''(Mouth full)'' Fine, I'd rather die!
