We missed this one; opening.
EDIT: Since I'm not the only one looking at these pings.

This was changed without discussion in the interim. A good faith edit trying to appease this thread, at least, but noting it all the same.
Old (what was present when thread was posted):
Current:
The newer image isn't too bad a starting point.
Moon◊The second is pretty cool.
Trope sponsor here; I provided the original image as well as the second image in reaction to the complaint. The thread wasn't open when I updated the image and I wasn't really sure how to respond to it.
You don't, until the thread is opened. It's okay, though :)
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Trying to help is okay, no matter if you're doing it right or wrong. Trying to help the wrong way after being told you're doing it the wrong way is not okay.
As for the image, I'd like something that says something about having to do with the plot of the episode, rather than a weather forecast screencap. I'm not entirely sure how to show that, though. The Appa picture is the best of all I've seen in the thread so far.
Check out my fanfiction!I am OK with 3.2 for the record. With the proposed caption as well.

The Perfect Storm parody episode "The Wife Aquatic"
I'd say that puts less emphasis on the weather impacting the plot than their Reaction Shot to some offscreen terror.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Hm. Is it expecting too much of readers to think virtually everyone knows The Simpsons exists, and that it's not usually about being on a boat in a storm? I think maybe not. That's easily the best suggestion so far IMO.

Crowner's hooked.
Calling this one; can someone please upload and add 10? Thanks in advance.
Caption or no?
It's up, tagged, and sourced.
No good caption is coming to mind.

Crown Description:
Nominations for replacement images:
The trope is about the plot being affected by the backdrop of a storm; the picture of a stormy sea doesn't illustrate this at all (plus I can't make out what's the little blob in the middle).
Edit: looking closely, I think it's Appa from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Really doesn't help.
Some kind of "storm warning" weather-channel screenshot would be more illustrative, like this one◊. I also found a more parodic one, too bad it's of low quality.
