We'll meet here every morning
at 7:00 and have our own club.

Okay, wait here for two minutes

I'm gonna open

What ice cream flavor
will make my dog feel

in the entire universe?

we say, "excellent."

163
00:07:17,341 --> 00:07:19,345
As such, we have
terminated association

164
00:07:19,411 --> 00:07:21,382
with Homer J. Simpson,
as his actions

165
00:07:21,482 --> 00:07:23,887
do not represent
the values of Evil Corps.

<i>tent our fingers, and listen.</i>

168
00:07:28,897 --> 00:07:31,803
Well, Homer, on the plus side,
this has made people forget

169
00:07:31,870 --> 00:07:33,907
- you almost killed the dog.
- Oh...

170
00:07:40,688 --> 00:07:41,657
of the guy who pushed a pastor
out of a church window.

171
00:07:41,823 --> 00:07:44,763
Uh-huh. And would you
classify that as a death threat

172
00:07:44,829 --> 00:07:47,502
or merely an
act of extreme violence?

173
00:07:47,568 --> 00:07:49,004
Thank you for your rage.

174
00:07:50,373 --> 00:07:51,409
Hm.

175
00:07:51,510 --> 00:07:52,512
Oh, Lovejoy's fine.

176
00:07:52,645 --> 00:07:55,383
But I lost my job and now
that trolls put my photos

177
00:07:55,450 --> 00:07:56,787
and phone number
on the Internet,

178
00:07:56,853 --> 00:08:00,327
I also lost
my anonon-nim-ninim-ninity.

179
00:08:00,427 --> 00:08:01,997
There's also a bunch of TikToks

180
00:08:02,030 --> 00:08:04,201
of people lip-syncing
to what you said,

181
00:08:04,301 --> 00:08:05,971

It's not too late, Homer.

I'm here to help you.

223
00:09:52,752 --> 00:09:54,021
Help me?
Is this

224
00:09:54,121 --> 00:09:56,560
some kind of prank,
like when those YouTubers

225
00:09:56,626 --> 00:09:58,463
chased me with real machetes?

226
00:09:58,564 --> 00:10:00,601
Wow. And no.

227
00:10:00,701 --> 00:10:02,137
I have created a refuge

228
00:10:02,237 --> 00:10:04,709
where people like you
can find redemption.

229
00:10:04,809 --> 00:10:07,982
I run an institute.
We call it The Institute.

(gasps)

231
00:10:09,919 --> 00:10:11,823
And it might just be
your last chance

00:10:11,890 --> 00:10:13,961
at rehabilitating
your reputation.

233
00:10:14,027 --> 00:10:17,167
Wait, wait, are you saying
you can steam clean,

00:10:17,267 --> 00:10:18,202

carpet, if you will?

236
00:10:21,475 --> 00:10:24,716
I am, and I will. And I will.

237
00:10:24,816 --> 00:10:26,853
The Institute is his only hope.

238
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:30,794
Well, my reputation
is everything to me.

239
00:10:30,861 --> 00:10:33,600
That doesn't jibe
with your past behavior.

240
00:10:33,700 --> 00:10:36,573
I'm tired of reputations
being about past behavior.

241
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,946
I'll do it.
Keep it safe.

242
00:10:47,327 --> 00:10:50,200
Here at the Institute,
we break our rehabilitants up

243
00:10:50,266 --> 00:10:52,805
according to the severity
of their mistakes.

244
00:10:52,905 --> 00:10:55,410
HOMER:
Uh-huh. Yep.

245
00:10:55,476 --> 00:10:57,113
That makes sense.

246
00:10:57,147 --> 00:10:58,282

Call 911?

Unfortunately,
that was the only way

320
00:14:02,183 --> 00:14:03,987
to get you your lives back.

321
00:14:04,054 --> 00:14:07,260
Well, there is one other way.
No, we can't.

322
00:14:07,293 --> 00:14:09,999
- What?
- No, it's too radical.

323
00:14:10,066 --> 00:14:13,874
Ah, but it's the only thing
that's 100% guaranteed to work.

324
00:14:13,940 --> 00:14:16,111
Hmm, yeah, it does sound
pretty radical.

325
00:14:16,145 --> 00:14:17,882
Thanks for being honest
about that.

326
00:14:17,948 --> 00:14:19,786
Well, sometimes
the only way to get results

327
00:14:19,886 --> 00:14:21,255
is through radical action.

328
00:14:21,321 --> 00:14:23,459
Sorry, we took a vote.
It's too radical.

329
00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:25,263
Wh... I didn't even
tell you what it is yet.

330
00:14:25,329 --> 00:14:26,933
When you said "radical,"
you said enough.

331
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,135
Bye forever.

332
00:14:28,202 --> 00:14:30,373
Look, I thought that
by calling it radical,

333
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,010
you'd be more likely
to want to do it.

334
00:14:32,110 --> 00:14:33,880
Like you'd be intrigued
or something.

335
00:14:33,980 --> 00:14:36,653
(gasps) Intrigued, eh?

336
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:38,890
You are all here
at The Institute...

337
00:14:40,126 --> 00:14:41,763
...because of
the humiliation you faced

338
00:14:41,863 --> 00:14:44,301
after the world
saw you on your worst day.

339
00:14:44,367 --> 00:14:45,369
(all shudder)

340
00:14:45,403 --> 00:14:47,340
But, what if you could
delete all that

341
00:14:47,407 --> 00:14:50,881
from every computer,
every phone, every meme,

342
00:14:50,948 --> 00:14:53,920
and even every personal
hard drive on Earth?

343
00:14:54,020 --> 00:14:54,956
But that's impossible.

344
00:14:54,989 --> 00:14:58,229
You'd have to invent
something to do that.

345
00:14:58,295 --> 00:14:59,565
Funny you say that.
I did

346
00:14:59,632 --> 00:15:01,536
invent something to do that.

347
00:15:01,603 --> 00:15:04,174
A universal eradication code
that can completely scrub

348
00:15:04,274 --> 00:15:07,213
any image or video
from the entire Internet.

349
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,151
Scrub us.
You scrub us right now!

350
00:15:09,251 --> 00:15:11,890
Oh, I would, but first
I need to upload the code

351
00:15:11,956 --> 00:15:13,459
into the one server
powerful enough

352
00:15:13,527 --> 00:15:16,331
to reach every corner
of the World Wide Web.

353
00:15:17,535 --> 00:15:18,770
ChumNet.

354
00:15:19,572 --> 00:15:21,676
You mean the company
that puts those annoying

355
00:15:21,743 --> 00:15:25,082
clickbait-y headlines
on the bottom of every website?

356
00:15:25,149 --> 00:15:27,120
Yes, they're everywhere.

357
00:15:27,922 --> 00:15:30,193
No platform has greater reach.

358
00:15:30,259 --> 00:15:32,197
But to upload the scrub code
into their servers,

359
00:15:32,263 --> 00:15:36,004
I need you to break in
to the ChumNet headquarters.

360
00:15:36,071 --> 00:15:38,342
Break in?
That sounds dangerous.

361
00:15:38,375 --> 00:15:39,311
It is, Helen.

362
00:15:39,411 --> 00:15:41,215
That was the radical part
I mentioned earlier,

363
00:15:41,315 --> 00:15:43,319
that didn't seem
to land with any of you.

364
00:15:43,385 --> 00:15:45,323
Radical, eh?

365
00:15:45,389 --> 00:15:47,260
Yeah, we don't have
anything to lose.

366
00:15:47,327 --> 00:15:50,266
So, we're kind of like
a suicide squad.

367
00:15:50,366 --> 00:15:53,305
You're exactly kind of like
a suicide squad.

368
00:15:53,405 --> 00:15:54,509
What do you say?

369
00:15:54,575 --> 00:15:56,746
I think we can pull this-O.

370
00:15:56,813 --> 00:15:58,115
I say we do it.

371
00:15:58,249 --> 00:16:01,455
We need to fight for each other,
because we're a family.

372
00:16:01,523 --> 00:16:02,591
ALL: Aw.

373
00:16:02,691 --> 00:16:05,163
A family I don't want or need.

374
00:16:05,263 --> 00:16:07,835
I miss my actual family,
so let's do this.

375
00:16:07,935 --> 00:16:09,037
(all agree)

376
00:16:09,104 --> 00:16:11,308
But if we're going
on a commando mission,

377
00:16:11,341 --> 00:16:13,112
don't we need
some sort of training?

378
00:16:13,212 --> 00:16:14,549
(laughs) Don't you see?

379
00:16:14,615 --> 00:16:17,220
You've already had
some sort of training.

Okay, just stay focused

387

until you find
the ChumNet server room.

388

What about
all the people in there?

389
00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:46,478
There are no people.
Just clickbait.

So whatever you do,
don't stop to click on anything.

They're really terrible.

That guy raised the price

427
00:18:39,939 --> 00:18:41,809
I think that guy
was just president,

that's the football coach

Yes, Homer.
