History Recap / TheSimpsonsS7E25SummerOf4Ft2

* OhCrap: After snidely rubbing salt in Lisa's wounds by invoking BeYourself almost sees Lisa physically blind him with honey, Bart is left flinching in genuine terror from her.
Also, before that when Lisa sees Bart coming towards her with yearbook in hand. Lisa is defenseless to do anything while Bart exposes her as a bookworm.

* InnocentWhistling: How Homer leaves the beach house after accidentally using the illegal firework to blow up the dishwasher and back up the sink.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: The beach kids decorate the family car for Lisa as a sign that they still view her as a friend, but fail to note that ''Homer'' would react differently to what they've done. Marge also notes it would've been sensible to make sure the shells they used were clean first.

** Bart and Lisa both assume that finding out Lisa's a nerd at home will immediately kill her social standing with the cool crowd she's hanging out with, with Lisa even taking it for granted that they'll treat her to the kind of bullying she gets at school. In fact, they couldn't care less, because they've had fun hanging out with her up to this point and don't see it making a difference.

* SpeaksLikeTotallyTeen: Erin's friends, which is how Lisa's able to figure out they're kids. After all, only kids would be that incoherent.

* PlotHole: The entire meat of the episode is Lisa being upset that she has no friends. Even ignoring that she plays with other kids (like Janey) in plenty of other episodes, the other yearbook staff from the very beginning of ''this'' episode are clearly very friendly with her. Her lack of yearbook signings from ''anybody'' being the symbol of her friendlessness makes this slightly [[JustifiedTrope justified]].

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Lisa may have been restrained, but she got absolutely ''vicious'' with Bart the day after he showed her new friends her yearbook. When he smugly apologises in a backhanded way the next morning, she yanks him by his shirt, hisses at him over what he'd done, and was prepared to do something horrible to him with a bottle of honey before Marge comes back in the room.

** Marge's motherly advice to Lisa about her lack of friends. Lisa tries the opposite, and makes herself into some beatnik. However, her intellectual nature still shines through, but her beach friends actually appreciate Lisa's lessons on nature and [[TooDumbToLive why you can't drink seawater]].

* DidntThinkThisThrough: The beach kids decorate the family car for Lisa as a sign that they still view her as a friend, but fail to note that ''Homer'' would react differently to what they've done.

* IJustWantToHaveFriends: This episode focuses on Lisa's isolation from the rest of her classmates, sparking her voyage to remake herself.
** Reconstructed with Bart, who already is popular in their home ground, but is left disgruntled when he can't impress Lisa's friends and is stuck with Milhouse throughout the vacation (Lisa had expected he'd try to steal them from her and convinced them he was an annoying dork).

* ShutUpHannibal: Lisa, quietly but furiously, blows up at Bart for (apparently) sabotaging her relationship with her friends.
-->'''Bart:''' ''[Snidely]'' Hey, Lise. I guess my little yearbook stunt ''was'' pretty rough, but it did teach you a lesson. It's important to be yourself.\\
''[Marge leaves the room; the very second she's gone, Lisa violently grabs Bart and yanks him into her face, brandishing a bottle of honey threateningly]''\\
'''Lisa:''' ''[[[TranquilFury Cold, vicious hiss]]]'' I know '''''exactly''''' who I am. I am the sister of a ''rotten'', jealous, '''''MEAN''''' little sneak! ''You cost me my only friends''! '''''You've ruined my life!'''''

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: When the family gets to the Flanders' beach house, Lisa and Homer have both forgotten their swimming clothes. While she and Marge go shopping for clothes, Homer decides to make impromptu trunks with the welcome mat and duct tape. He immediately gets in trouble with the police for indecent exposure.

* TranquilFury: During the confrontation with Bart under ShutUpHannibal, Lisa never raises her voice above a quiet hiss -- but that quiet hiss leaves no room for doubt about how utterly, unprecedentedly, volcanically '''''pissed''''' she is at Bart. What makes this better is that while she's hissing, she has a honey bottle positioned over his head and is about to squeeze honey onto his face. When Marge enters the room, Lisa puts the bottle down, releases Bart, and goes back to quietly eating, all within roughly half a second, leaving Bart visibly unnerved.

* OhCrap: After snidely rubbing salt in Lisa's wounds by invoking BeYourself almost sees Lisa physically blind him with syrup, Bart is left flinching in genuine terror from her.

* RageBreakingPoint: The morning after Bart outs her as a super-nerd and her friends appear to walk away in disgust, Bart tries to (somewhat mockingly) tell Lisa that the lesson of what he did is "BeYourself". Lisa grabs him by the collar, [[ShutUpHannibal calls him out]] and nearly tortures him with maple syrup in revenge before Marge walks in.

* EscalatingWar: Lisa is left livid over Bart seemingly destroying her relationship with her new friends, leading to a back and forth at the beach carnival. After she is humiliated when they take their war to the bumper cars, Lisa loses interest and walks off depressed, and Bart to suffer a JerkassRealization.

** Bart tries to mock Lisa with this trope the morning after he outs her. [[RageBreakingPoint She almost attacks him.]]

-->'''Marge:''' ''(seeing that each individual section of an ice cube tray has a note that says "Fill me")'' Well, ''duh!'' With what, Ned?! ''([[TheTapeKnewYouWouldSayThat she lifts one of the notes to find a note reading "With water" underneath]])''

In fact, they couldn't care less, because they know she's fun to hang out with and don't see it making a difference.

* JerkassHasAPoint: "Friends" who ditched Lisa after finding out about her nerdy history would hardly have been worth keeping. Luckily, all Bart's stunt does is prove them to be better people than Bart and Lisa took them for.

* CaptainObvious: When the Simpsons arrive at Ned's beach house they find that he's labeled ''everything'' with its use, down to a "Put food in me" sign on the fridge. [[NotSoAboveItAll Even Marge thinks it's a little much]]:
