00:01:03,730 --> 00:01:05,857
{\an8}Uh, well, Tim,
just thought you should know,

22
00:01:05,940 --> 00:01:08,651
{\an8}a very special fan club
is waiting to talk to you.

23
00:01:08,735 --> 00:01:10,862
{\an8}Mm!

24
00:01:11,613 --> 00:01:13,907
{\an8}A semi-circle? What gives?

25

{\an8}Ned? Agnes?

{\an8}Mel? The Parson?

27
00:01:18,745 --> 00:01:20,330
{\an8}That's right, your boss.

28
00:01:20,413 --> 00:01:23,708
{\an8}And I'd like to introduce you
to my boss, the Patriarch.

29
00:01:23,792 --> 00:01:27,045
{\an8}Actually, Parson,
we all have the same boss.

30
00:01:27,128 --> 00:01:29,089
{\an8}The Metropolitan.

31
00:01:29,172 --> 00:01:32,425
{\an8}And it is his will
that we come together here for...

32
00:01:32,509 --> 00:01:35,345
{\an8}a divine intervention.

33
00:01:35,428 --> 00:01:37,180
{\an8}Look, since when is it a crime

34
00:01:37,263 --> 00:01:39,474
{\an8}to mix Pinot Noir and Vicodin?

35
00:01:39,557 --> 00:01:43,645
{\an8}Oh, we don't care if you wreck your liver
with Sancerre and acetaminophen.

36
00:01:43,728 --> 00:01:47,857
{\an8}You can pop pain pills
like cran-raisins for all we care.

37
00:01:47,941 --> 00:01:51,194
{\an8}We're here 'cause you're not

{\an8}There's flu going around.

{\an8}The new Jeeps are in at the dealership.

42
00:02:00,829 --> 00:02:03,873
{\an8}Lot of new features,
the big screen up front, where...

43
00:02:03,957 --> 00:02:05,750
{\an8}It's not just attendance, Reverend.

44
00:02:05,834 --> 00:02:08,545
It's that sometimes when you speak,
my mind wanders,

45
00:02:08,628 --> 00:02:11,881
to, uh, non-religious areas.

46
00:02:14,384 --> 00:02:16,636
Timothy, admit it. You're in a slump.

47
00:02:16,719 --> 00:02:20,473
How many souls have you personally
converted to our faith this year?

48
00:02:20,557 --> 00:02:21,891
Negative six.

49
00:02:21,975 --> 00:02:24,310
You have some converting to do.

50
00:02:24,394 --> 00:02:26,604
(groaning)

51
00:02:26,688 --> 00:02:28,857
I haven't been heard from!

52
00:02:28,940 --> 00:02:30,567
And what do you have to say?

53
00:02:30,650 --> 00:02:33,695
Nothing! Just pointing it out.

54
00:02:33,778 --> 00:02:35,947
Okay, I can do this.

55
00:02:36,030 --> 00:02:37,407
I'm a good man.

56
00:02:37,490 --> 00:02:41,035

if not a good Christian community.

in a college town.

get with the pagan agenda.

I'll shoot you off of there.

this year's feature attraction--

67
00:03:07,729 --> 00:03:09,939
the Strandbeest.

68
00:03:10,023 --> 00:03:12,066

69
00:03:12,150 --> 00:03:16,154
Wow.
Uh... is this science, or garbage?

70
00:03:16,237 --> 00:03:18,072
-Dutch art.
-Ooh!

71
00:03:18,156 --> 00:03:20,366
And I'll bet
it's environmentally conscious.

72
00:03:20,450 --> 00:03:21,826
No. It is not.

00:03:30,585 --> 00:03:32,795
Hmm. The wind is picking up slightly.

00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:34,130
This is a disaster!

78
00:03:34,214 --> 00:03:36,424
The Beest is built for
the polite breezes of Europe.

00:04:03,826 --> 00:04:05,203
Okay, I got to warn ya.

92
00:04:05,286 --> 00:04:07,497
Regular morphine
doesn't work on me anymore.

93
00:04:07,580 --> 00:04:10,500
Call this number
and they'll send the stuff I need.

94

It'll say "for elephants,"
but ignore that.

(groans)

96
00:04:14,254 --> 00:04:15,838
Sorry about this, Sophie.

97
00:04:15,922 --> 00:04:18,174
Couldn't have come at a worse time.

98
00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:21,469
I only get one week of custody,
once a year.

99
00:04:21,552 --> 00:04:22,929
It's okay, Dad.

100
00:04:23,012 --> 00:04:25,556
We'll get to know each other
in this semi-private room.

101
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,725
Oh, I'll give you
all the privacy you need.

102
00:04:27,809 --> 00:04:29,811
-Ah...
-(flat lines)

103
00:04:31,771 --> 00:04:34,148
-(screams) Harold?
-Private room!

104
00:04:35,275 --> 00:04:36,943
Mm-hmm.

105
00:04:38,736 --> 00:04:42,532
Uh... so, uh,
how's your act coming along?

106
00:04:42,615 --> 00:04:44,325
I'm not in show business.

107
00:04:44,409 --> 00:04:46,369
What kind of a screwed-up kid are you?

108
00:04:46,452 --> 00:04:48,538
I'm not screwed up. I get good grades.

109
00:04:48,621 --> 00:04:50,873
-I play the French horn.
-Good, good.

110
00:04:50,957 --> 00:04:52,834
You know,
it's funny when someone's playing it

111
00:04:52,917 --> 00:04:54,460
and their pants fall down.

112
00:04:54,544 --> 00:04:56,587
-(chuckles)
-I haven't had that happen.

113
00:04:56,671 --> 00:04:58,047
Well, don't feel bad.

114
00:04:58,131 --> 00:05:00,049
It's actually a pretty complicated rig.

115
00:05:00,133 --> 00:05:02,135
The whole megillah is a big tzimmes.

116
00:05:02,218 --> 00:05:04,262
Tzimmes? Megillah?

117
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:05,430
It's Yiddish.

118
00:05:05,513 --> 00:05:07,890
The language of our <i>fakakta </i>people.

119
00:05:07,974 --> 00:05:10,059
Mom raised me Christian.

120
00:05:10,143 --> 00:05:12,061
A Christian?

121
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:14,564
(groans)
That <i>farbissina </i>shiksa.

122
00:05:14,647 --> 00:05:18,526
How can you ignore the sacred traditions
of the Jewish people?

123
00:05:18,609 --> 00:05:21,904
Krusty, here's your bacon, lobster,
and tref sandwich.

124
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:24,699
Hey, it was supposed to come
with a side of camel.

125
00:05:24,782 --> 00:05:26,117
Extra cloven.

126
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,078
Dad, you don't have to be
sort of funny with me.

127
00:05:29,162 --> 00:05:32,790
The thing is,
I want to celebrate this time with you.

128
00:05:32,874 --> 00:05:34,792
Sweetie, I know you're reaching out.

129
00:05:34,876 --> 00:05:38,046
But to me, Christmas is just another day.

130
00:05:38,129 --> 00:05:41,674
I usually curl up
with a good bookmaker, and...

131
00:05:42,342 --> 00:05:44,969
Well...

132
00:05:45,053 --> 00:05:48,473
Why don't the two of you
spend Christmas with us?

133
00:05:48,556 --> 00:05:50,016
Our home isn't fancy,

134
00:05:50,099 --> 00:05:53,269
but we'd love to set a place
for two more.

135
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:55,521
Marge, we accept.

136
00:05:55,605 --> 00:05:58,107
-Can we bring anything?
-Just yourself.

137
00:05:58,191 --> 00:05:59,484
That'll cost you.

138
00:06:00,902 --> 00:06:02,612
(singsongy) Oh, Maggie.

139
00:06:02,695 --> 00:06:04,489
Guess who just came down the chimney?

140
00:06:04,572 --> 00:06:06,449
A magical holiday friend,

141
00:06:06,532 --> 00:06:09,160
straight from the North Pole.

142
00:06:09,243 --> 00:06:12,246
He's called the Gnome In Your Home,
and he works for Santa,

143
00:06:12,330 --> 00:06:14,791
by watching you all the time.

144
00:06:15,833 --> 00:06:17,960
According to a book sold separately,

145
00:06:18,044 --> 00:06:20,755
the Gnome In Your Home
doesn't need food or sleep.

146
00:06:20,838 --> 00:06:23,591
He lives for just one thing--

147
00:06:23,674 --> 00:06:26,552
to tell Santa if you're bad or good.

148
00:06:26,636 --> 00:06:27,762
(sucking pacifier rapidly)

149
00:06:27,845 --> 00:06:31,849
He's gonna live here on your shelf,
and he never shuts his eyes.

150
00:06:31,933 --> 00:06:33,142
Isn't that cute?

151
00:06:33,226 --> 00:06:37,480
You'd better be good,
or he'll nibble your wittle fingers!

152
00:06:37,563 --> 00:06:39,482
(sucking pacifier rapidly)

153
00:06:39,565 --> 00:06:41,567
(playing "O Tannenbaum" on piano)

154
00:06:48,074 --> 00:06:50,701
-(doorbell rings)
-Oh, boy, Krusty's here!

155
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:54,664
A very merry Christmas,

156
00:06:54,747 --> 00:06:57,333
from the bottom of my heart.

157
00:06:57,417 --> 00:06:59,293
(calling) Did you get the shot?

00:15:32,097 --> 00:15:34,058
Their top god is named Mazda.

319
00:15:34,141 --> 00:15:36,894
-Tell me that's not hilarious.
-(groans)

320
00:15:36,977 --> 00:15:40,105
And now the moment
you've been waiting for...

321
00:15:40,189 --> 00:15:43,859
The nature of the universe
is we are forced to wait for every moment.

322
00:15:43,943 --> 00:15:46,236
-As Mazda teaches us...
-Shh!

323
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,364
My daughter will play the French horn

324
00:15:48,447 --> 00:15:51,283
and no one's pants will drop.

325
00:15:52,618 --> 00:15:54,495
(plays upbeat melody)

326
00:15:56,330 --> 00:15:58,666
I guess this will just be for me.

327
00:16:02,503 --> 00:16:04,755
Well, look at you,
all cool and collected.

328
00:16:04,838 --> 00:16:07,633
Oh, well, even the Lord rested on Sunday.

329
00:16:07,716 --> 00:16:10,719
But Krusty's not ours
till he's b-b-b-baptized.

330
00:16:10,803 --> 00:16:14,890
You have to get his soul
and his bank router number on autopay.

331
00:16:14,974 --> 00:16:17,726
Oh, he wanted to do it
the old-fashioned way,

332
00:16:17,810 --> 00:16:20,604
in the river with Miss Teenage Nevada,

333
00:16:20,688 --> 00:16:22,064
but the river's frozen.

334
00:16:22,147 --> 00:16:23,857
I have to wait until the ice melts.

335
00:16:23,941 --> 00:16:26,735
Mm-mm-mm.
I had you pegged for a closer, Tim.

336
00:16:26,819 --> 00:16:29,905
You know, Ogdenville
is looking for a prison chaplain.

337
00:16:29,989 --> 00:16:33,659
The last one, well,
he got a very cool tattoo...

338
00:16:33,742 --> 00:16:36,161
that he didn't ask for.

339
00:16:36,245 --> 00:16:37,121
-(Helen gasps)
-(glass shatters)

340
00:16:37,204 --> 00:16:38,998

please approach?

346
00:16:57,224 --> 00:16:59,476
{\an8}-(laughing)
-(grunting)

347
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,271
{\an8}You're sure you want to do this, Dad?
Seems kind of meshugana.

348
00:17:02,354 --> 00:17:04,606
{\an8}I want to be a total Christian
for you, babe,

349

(laughter continues)

354
00:17:21,999 --> 00:17:24,293
Huh? Huh? Oh.

355
00:17:24,376 --> 00:17:28,505
Oh, great, my death is
a hacky parody of <i>Frozen.</i>

356
00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:32,301
Dad? But who's the moose?

357
00:17:32,384 --> 00:17:33,969
I'm your first agent.

358
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:36,638
Oh, this is the most we've ever spoken.

359
00:17:36,722 --> 00:17:39,183
-(cell phone rings)
-(groans)

360
00:17:39,266 --> 00:17:40,601
I must be dead.

361
00:17:40,684 --> 00:17:41,977
You're not dead yet.

362
00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:43,979
Listen, I should know, because I am.

363
00:17:44,063 --> 00:17:46,315
And life was no picnic,
but let me tell you,

364
00:17:46,398 --> 00:17:47,983
death is no picnic, either.

365
00:17:48,067 --> 00:17:50,694
Your biggest mistake
is expecting picnics.

366
00:17:50,778 --> 00:17:51,862
Dad!

367
00:17:51,945 --> 00:17:55,032
Oh, I suppose you're not happy
that I'm converting.

368
00:17:55,115 --> 00:17:58,368
Herschel, your heart just stopped,
so I'll make this very quick.

369
00:17:58,452 --> 00:18:01,330
There's no one religion
that makes you a good father.

370
00:18:01,413 --> 00:18:03,499
All you got to do
is think of your children

371
00:18:03,582 --> 00:18:05,334
before yourself, that's all...

372
00:18:05,417 --> 00:18:08,170
except with those oxygen masks
that you get on the planes.

373
00:18:08,253 --> 00:18:09,838
There it's vice-a-versa.

374
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:11,590
Well, I guess you would know.

375
00:18:11,673 --> 00:18:14,676
You're a rabbi
who's seen the face of God.

376
00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:17,012
Actually, I'm a hallucination
caused by cell death

377
00:18:17,096 --> 00:18:18,514
in your suffocating brain.

378
00:18:18,597 --> 00:18:21,850
Also, I saw you texting
during my funeral.

379
00:18:21,934 --> 00:18:24,436
-For shame!
-(cries out)

380
00:18:25,521 --> 00:18:28,023
Oh, reel him in.
You've caught a drowning man!

381
00:18:28,107 --> 00:18:29,483
Slow down.

382
00:18:29,566 --> 00:18:31,318
First I'm gonna play him a little.

383
00:18:35,948 --> 00:18:38,784
"I shall be a fisher of men."

384
00:18:42,621 --> 00:18:45,207
(ice breaking)

385
00:18:45,290 --> 00:18:48,043
I'm alive! Oh, ho!

386
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:50,003
Don't tell my ex-wife.

387
00:18:51,046 --> 00:18:53,048
(whooping and cheering)

388
00:18:53,132 --> 00:18:55,551
Lovejoy is a hero!

389
00:18:55,634 --> 00:18:58,720

he's drunk.
