{\an8}a man so desperate
to get out

17
00:00:57,557 --> 00:00:58,975
{\an8}of five minutes
of calisthenics.

{\an8}One, two, three, four.

{\an8}This new exercise program
is great.

22
00:01:07,358 --> 00:01:10,153
{\an8}Yeah. Every muscle in
my body's getting a workout.

23
00:01:10,236 --> 00:01:12,322
{\an8}Especially my big, fat mouth.

24
00:01:12,405 --> 00:01:13,656
{\an8}Yeah. Especially
your big, fat...

25
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:14,908
{\an8}Oh, wait.

26

{\an8}Raise your right hock.
Aerate.

{\an8}Raise your left hock.
Aerate.

{\an8}Actually, homer,
that's just one.

33
00:01:28,254 --> 00:01:29,255
{\an8}See, each pushup
includes

34
00:01:29,339 --> 00:01:31,841
{\an8}both an up part
and a down part.

Hey, where's Charlie?

37
00:01:35,470 --> 00:01:36,888
How did he get out of this?

38
00:01:36,971 --> 00:01:38,223
He's at home
on disability.

39
00:01:38,306 --> 00:01:40,016
Yeah, he got injured
on the job.

40
00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:41,601
They sent him
home with pay.

41
00:01:41,684 --> 00:01:44,312
It's like a lottery
that rewards stupidity.

42
00:01:44,395 --> 00:01:46,439
Stupidity, eh?

43
00:01:46,523 --> 00:01:48,233
Must hurt self.

44
00:01:48,316 --> 00:01:52,070

May I help you?

50
00:02:18,012 --> 00:02:21,015
Uh... Could you give
me a little push

51
00:02:21,099 --> 00:02:22,100
in the opposite
direction?

52
00:02:22,183 --> 00:02:23,935
Okay.

You can do it, old boy.

Yes, I can.

Yes, yes.
That's the spirit.

69

they'll let you work at home?

70
00:03:10,982 --> 00:03:12,650
Uh-huh.
That's the deal.

71
00:03:12,734 --> 00:03:14,152
No more exercise program.

72
00:03:14,235 --> 00:03:15,528
No more traffic.

73
00:03:15,612 --> 00:03:17,780
No more blood drives
or charity walks.

00:03:17,864 --> 00:03:20,116
Dad, I know we don't
do a lot together

75
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,202
but helping you
gain 61 pounds

76
00:03:22,285 --> 00:03:23,912
is something
I want to be a part of.

00:03:23,995 --> 00:03:25,413
-Dad!
-(screams)

78
00:03:25,496 --> 00:03:26,873
I must protest.

79
00:03:26,956 --> 00:03:27,957
You're abusing a program

80
00:03:28,041 --> 00:03:29,584
intended to help
the unfortunate.

81
00:03:29,667 --> 00:03:32,712
I'm not saying
it isn't sleazy, honey,

82
00:03:32,795 --> 00:03:34,547
but try to see it my way.

83
00:03:34,631 --> 00:03:36,424
All my life,
I've been an obese man

84
00:03:36,507 --> 00:03:37,926
trapped inside
a fat man's body.

85
00:03:38,009 --> 00:03:39,677
Have you told Mom
about this?

86
00:03:39,761 --> 00:03:41,638
No, it would only
worry her.

87
00:03:41,721 --> 00:03:43,598
If you want to add
to her worries, go ahead.

88
00:03:43,681 --> 00:03:45,099
I guess I'm just
a little more grateful

89
00:03:45,183 --> 00:03:46,267
for all she's done for us.

90
00:03:46,351 --> 00:03:48,186
-Dad!
-Yes, sweetheart?

91
00:03:48,269 --> 00:03:50,104
Obesity is really
unhealthy.

92
00:03:50,188 --> 00:03:51,814
Any doctor will
tell you that.

93
00:03:51,898 --> 00:03:54,108
Oh, yeah? Well, we'll
just see about that,

94
00:03:54,192 --> 00:03:55,193
little miss smart guy.

95
00:03:55,276 --> 00:03:56,444
(gasps)

96
00:03:56,527 --> 00:03:58,404
My God, that's monstrous.

97
00:03:58,488 --> 00:04:00,615
I've never heard
of anything so negligent.

98
00:04:00,698 --> 00:04:03,451
I'll have no part of it.

99
00:04:03,534 --> 00:04:05,828
Can you recommend
a doctor who will?

100
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:06,871
Yes.

101
00:04:06,955 --> 00:04:08,706
Hi, everybody.

102
00:04:08,790 --> 00:04:10,500
BOTH: Hi, Dr. Nick.

103
00:04:10,583 --> 00:04:13,086
Now, there are many
options available

104
00:04:13,169 --> 00:04:16,881
for dangerously underweight
individuals like yourself.

105
00:04:16,965 --> 00:04:21,177
I recommend a slow,
steady gorging process

106
00:04:21,261 --> 00:04:23,680
combined with
assal horizontology.

107
00:04:23,763 --> 00:04:25,431
Of course.

108
00:04:25,515 --> 00:04:28,601
You'll want to focus
on the neglected food groups

109
00:04:28,685 --> 00:04:32,272
such as the whipped group,
the congealed group

110
00:04:32,355 --> 00:04:33,898
and the choc-o-tastic.

111
00:04:33,982 --> 00:04:36,276
What can I do to speed
the whole thing up, Doctor?

112
00:04:36,359 --> 00:04:37,986
Be creative.

113
00:04:38,069 --> 00:04:41,281
Instead of making sandwiches
with bread, use Pop-Tarts.

114
00:04:41,364 --> 00:04:43,491
Instead of chewing gum,
chew bacon.

115
00:04:43,574 --> 00:04:46,202
You could brush your
teeth with milk shakes.

116
00:04:46,286 --> 00:04:47,996
Hey, did you go

117
00:04:48,079 --> 00:04:50,164
to Hollywood Upstairs
Medical College, too?

118
00:04:50,248 --> 00:04:53,710
And remember, if you're not sure
about something,

119
00:04:53,793 --> 00:04:56,004
rub it against
a piece of paper.

120
00:04:56,087 --> 00:04:58,214
If the paper turns clear,

121
00:04:58,298 --> 00:05:00,258
it's your window
to weight gain.

122
00:05:00,341 --> 00:05:02,260
Bye-bye, everybody.

123
00:05:04,429 --> 00:05:07,307
Oh, it's a dream
come true, boy.

124
00:05:07,390 --> 00:05:08,725
I can, nay, I must

125
00:05:08,808 --> 00:05:10,727
eat everything
I've always wanted.

126
00:05:10,810 --> 00:05:12,729
Now come on.

127
00:05:12,812 --> 00:05:15,315
Every second I'm out of bed,
I'm burning precious calories.

128
00:05:15,398 --> 00:05:16,399
Now get grabbing.

129
00:05:29,245 --> 00:05:30,872
Eat around
the banana, Dad.

130
00:05:30,955 --> 00:05:32,290
It's just
empty vitamins.

131
00:05:46,095 --> 00:05:47,930
Lucky for you,
this stuff doesn't work.

132
00:05:53,936 --> 00:05:55,229
I don't know.

133
00:05:55,313 --> 00:05:56,773
Fish sandwich.

134
00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:57,857
Are you sure?

135
00:06:04,322 --> 00:06:05,323
Oh!

136
00:06:05,406 --> 00:06:08,242
225? That means
I lost weight.

137
00:06:08,326 --> 00:06:09,577
(clears throat)

138
00:06:09,660 --> 00:06:12,330
Homer,
you're on the towel rack.

139
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,376
Woo-hoo!

140
00:06:16,459 --> 00:06:19,045
Four more pounds,
and my dream comes true.

141
00:06:19,128 --> 00:06:21,214
Working at home.

142
00:06:27,303 --> 00:06:28,221
Here's your lemonade

143
00:06:28,304 --> 00:06:29,847
and here's your beer.

144
00:06:29,931 --> 00:06:33,643
Oh, you're such a vigorous
young go-getter.

145
00:06:33,726 --> 00:06:35,937
When's your next
coffee break?

146
00:06:36,020 --> 00:06:37,730
Anytime I want.

147
00:06:37,814 --> 00:06:38,898
(tiger growl)

148
00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:44,195
(tango music playing)

149
00:06:47,407 --> 00:06:48,741
Oh.

150
00:06:48,825 --> 00:06:51,119
Hey, Flanders, bad day
at the rat races?

151
00:06:51,202 --> 00:06:53,413
Yeah, a crazy guy shot
a bunch of people

152
00:06:53,496 --> 00:06:55,081
and the subway
ran over my hat.

153
00:06:59,335 --> 00:07:01,671
Hey, Lise,
come look at this.

154
00:07:01,754 --> 00:07:02,713
Neat.

155
00:07:09,095 --> 00:07:12,056
-Hello, honey.
-Hi.

156
00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:15,435
Um... There's something
I've been meaning to ask you.

157
00:07:15,518 --> 00:07:17,812
Did you put on
a little weight this week?

158
00:07:17,895 --> 00:07:19,313
I was going
to surprise you,

159
00:07:19,397 --> 00:07:20,815
but what the heck.

160
00:07:20,898 --> 00:07:23,943
Honey, I'm purposely
gaining 61 pounds

161
00:07:24,026 --> 00:07:25,319
to get on disability.

162
00:07:25,403 --> 00:07:26,446
(gasps)

163
00:07:26,529 --> 00:07:28,281
Have you lost your mind?

164
00:07:28,364 --> 00:07:30,116
Have you thought
about your health

165
00:07:30,199 --> 00:07:31,451
or your appearance?

166
00:07:31,534 --> 00:07:33,244
Oh, so, that's it,
isn't it, Marge?

167
00:07:33,327 --> 00:07:34,620
Looks.

168
00:07:34,704 --> 00:07:36,038
I didn't know you
were so shallow.

169
00:07:36,122 --> 00:07:37,832
Oh, please.

170
00:07:37,915 --> 00:07:39,459
I would love you if you
weighed 1,000 pounds, but...

171
00:07:39,542 --> 00:07:40,460
Beautiful. Good night.

172
00:07:42,545 --> 00:07:43,880
Oh.

173
00:07:43,963 --> 00:07:45,381
I've got 15 minutes
to gain a pound

174
00:07:45,465 --> 00:07:47,133
or I've got to face
another day at work.

175
00:07:47,216 --> 00:07:48,759
Bad news, Dad.
We're out of food.

176
00:07:48,843 --> 00:07:50,887
We're even out of the basic
elements of food.

177
00:07:50,970 --> 00:07:53,473
You ate all the tarragon
and you drank the soy sauce.

178
00:07:53,556 --> 00:07:54,974
I need a miracle.

179
00:08:02,482 --> 00:08:05,985
Ah, honey, that looks
just like a real doughnut.

180
00:08:06,068 --> 00:08:09,155
Dad, it says "Non-toxic."

181
00:08:09,238 --> 00:08:11,324
Well, that's a plus.

182
00:08:15,536 --> 00:08:17,497
Woo hoo-hoo-hoo!

183
00:08:17,580 --> 00:08:18,706
I did it!

184
00:08:18,789 --> 00:08:21,209
Uh, Dad,
towel rack.

185
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:25,963
(chuckling)

186
00:08:26,047 --> 00:08:27,215
Oh, my.

187
00:08:30,718 --> 00:08:32,345
(Mr. Burns
clearing throat)

188
00:08:32,428 --> 00:08:35,389
I'm pleased to dedicate
this remote work terminal.

189
00:08:35,473 --> 00:08:37,517
It will allow
our safety inspector here

190
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:39,393
to preform his duties
from home.

191
00:08:39,477 --> 00:08:42,438
And so, excelsior
to you, mister...

192
00:08:42,522 --> 00:08:44,482
What's the name
of this gastropod?

193
00:08:44,565 --> 00:08:47,318
Simpson, sir. One of your
chair-moisteners from sector 7-G.

194
00:08:47,401 --> 00:08:48,319
Yes.

195
00:08:48,402 --> 00:08:49,320
Simpson.

196
00:08:52,073 --> 00:08:54,158
Thank you for your pity.

197
00:08:54,242 --> 00:08:55,535
Mom, are you
ever planning

198
00:08:55,618 --> 00:08:58,204
to step in and put
a stop to this?

199
00:08:58,287 --> 00:08:59,539
Normally, your father's
crackpot schemes

200
00:08:59,622 --> 00:09:00,706
fizzle out as soon as

201
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:02,375
he finds something
good on TV

202
00:09:02,458 --> 00:09:04,669
but this season, uh...

203
00:09:17,682 --> 00:09:19,767
I'm looking for something
loose and billowy

204
00:09:19,850 --> 00:09:21,894
something comfortable
for my first day of work.

205
00:09:21,978 --> 00:09:23,563
Work, huh?
Let me guess.

206
00:09:23,646 --> 00:09:24,772
Computer programmer?

207
00:09:24,855 --> 00:09:26,524
Computer magazine columnist?

208
00:09:26,607 --> 00:09:27,775
Something with computers.

209
00:09:27,858 --> 00:09:28,818
Well, I use a computer.

210
00:09:28,901 --> 00:09:30,111
What's the connection?

211
00:09:30,194 --> 00:09:31,571
Must be the non-stop
sitting and snacking.

212
00:09:31,654 --> 00:09:35,449
Well, sir, many of our clients
find pants confining

213
00:09:35,533 --> 00:09:37,535
so we offer a range
of alternatives

214
00:09:37,618 --> 00:09:40,997
for the ample gentleman--
Ponchos, muu-muus, capes

215
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,499
jumpsuits, uni-sheets,
muslin body rolls

216
00:09:43,583 --> 00:09:45,459
academic and judicial robes.

217
00:09:45,543 --> 00:09:47,378
I don't want
to look like a weirdo.

218
00:09:47,461 --> 00:09:48,421
I'll just go with a muu-muu.

219
00:09:55,511 --> 00:09:57,555

daylight savings days.

235
00:10:34,884 --> 00:10:36,177
Lousy farmers.

"To start, press any key."

237

Where's the "Any" Key?

238
00:10:40,598 --> 00:10:42,016

"Ctrl... "

240
00:10:43,351 --> 00:10:44,560
And "Pg-up"

241
00:10:44,644 --> 00:10:47,313
There doesn't seem
to be any "Any" Key.

242
00:10:47,396 --> 00:10:50,149
Whew! All this computer hacking
is making me thirsty.

243
00:10:50,232 --> 00:10:51,567
I think I'll order a Tab.

244
00:10:53,736 --> 00:10:54,862
Whoop!
No time for that now.

245
00:10:54,945 --> 00:10:56,030

"Venting prevents ex-plos-ion."

00:11:15,383 --> 00:11:17,510
Ooh, this is hard.
Where's my Tab?

255
00:11:17,593 --> 00:11:19,220
Okay, then, yes.

256
00:11:19,303 --> 00:11:20,388
Vent the stupid gas.

257
00:11:28,229 --> 00:11:29,146
Ah, no!

258

This whole thing

00:12:07,268 --> 00:12:08,894
Are you sure
you won't talk to Dad?

276
00:12:08,978 --> 00:12:12,189
I'd like to, honey,
but I'm not sure how.

277
00:12:12,273 --> 00:12:14,692
Your father can be
surprisingly sensitive.

278
00:12:14,775 --> 00:12:16,902
Remember when I giggled at
his Sherlock Holmes hat?

279
00:12:16,986 --> 00:12:18,112
He sulked for a week

280
00:12:18,195 --> 00:12:19,905
and then closed
his detective agency.

281
00:12:19,989 --> 00:12:21,782
Maybe you'll have
to hurt his feelings.

282
00:12:21,866 --> 00:12:23,617
The longer he lives
like this, the harder

283
00:12:23,701 --> 00:12:25,077
it'll be to go back.

284
00:12:25,161 --> 00:12:27,705
Hmm, you're right.

285
00:12:27,788 --> 00:12:31,000
Hmm! Maybe if I use
my least-nagging tone of voice.

00:12:34,712 --> 00:12:35,796

Homer?

290
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:36,797
That's it.
That's the one.

291
00:12:36,881 --> 00:12:37,757
Send him on in.

292
00:12:39,258 --> 00:12:40,301
Dad?

293
00:12:40,384 --> 00:12:41,552
Yes, honey?

294
00:12:41,635 --> 00:12:43,846
Hmm. Mom just
baked a cake.

295
00:12:43,929 --> 00:12:44,847
Ooh!

296
00:12:47,475 --> 00:12:49,643
Homer, we need to have
a serious talk.

297
00:12:49,727 --> 00:12:51,729
You dragged me all the way
from work for that?

298
00:12:51,812 --> 00:12:55,232
Let's quietly and calmly
discuss the pros and cons

299
00:12:55,316 --> 00:12:57,777
of your controversial
plan, shall we?

300
00:12:57,860 --> 00:12:59,028
I--

301
00:12:59,111 --> 00:13:00,613
Con: You're endangering
your health.

302
00:13:00,696 --> 00:13:03,157
Pro: I'm drought
and famine-resistant.

303
00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,785
Con: You're setting a bad
example for the children.

304
00:13:05,868 --> 00:13:07,787
Pro:
I don't have to go to work.

305
00:13:07,870 --> 00:13:09,997
Con: You're running
the air conditioner non-stop.

306
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,207
It's freezing in here.

307
00:13:11,290 --> 00:13:13,375
Pro: Uh...

308
00:13:13,459 --> 00:13:15,586
Uh... I love you?

309
00:13:15,669 --> 00:13:18,839
Con:
I'm finding myself

310
00:13:18,923 --> 00:13:21,091
less attracted
to you physically.

311
00:13:23,803 --> 00:13:27,139
Marge, this is everything
I've ever dreamed of right here

312
00:13:27,223 --> 00:13:29,683
and nobody's going
to take it away from me.

313
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:31,811
You never had
faith in me before

314
00:13:31,894 --> 00:13:36,816
but let me tell you, the slim,
lazy homer you knew is dead.

315
00:13:36,899 --> 00:13:39,401
Now I'm a big, fat dynamo

316
00:13:39,485 --> 00:13:41,529
and where's that cake?!

317
00:13:41,612 --> 00:13:42,655
There's no cake.

318
00:13:42,738 --> 00:13:43,656
Oh.

319
00:13:45,115 --> 00:13:47,827
"Vent radioactive gas?"

320
00:13:47,910 --> 00:13:49,411
Y-e-s.

321
00:13:49,495 --> 00:13:51,455
"Sound alertness horn?"

322
00:13:51,539 --> 00:13:52,498
Y-e-s.

323
00:13:52,581 --> 00:13:53,666

324
00:13:53,749 --> 00:13:55,709
"Decalcify calcium ducts?"

325
00:13:55,793 --> 00:13:57,837
Well, give me a word.

326
00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,964
Give me a... Hey.

327
00:14:00,047 --> 00:14:02,675
All I have to type is "Y."

328
00:14:02,758 --> 00:14:05,469
Hey, miss doesn't-find-me-
attractive-sexually-anymore

329
00:14:05,553 --> 00:14:08,514
I just tripled
my productivity.

330
00:14:08,597 --> 00:14:10,266
Good. Good for you.

331
00:14:10,349 --> 00:14:11,851
"Y." "Y".

332
00:14:11,934 --> 00:14:14,228
Let's see, so many letters
to choose from.

333
00:14:14,311 --> 00:14:15,688
I'll pick "Y."

334
00:14:15,771 --> 00:14:18,858
"Y." "Y."

335
00:14:18,941 --> 00:14:21,735
What? What the heck
are you doing over there?

336
00:14:21,819 --> 00:14:22,862
(groaning)

337
00:14:22,945 --> 00:14:23,821
There. You found the floor.

338
00:14:25,197 --> 00:14:26,699
"Y, y, y, y."

339
00:14:26,782 --> 00:14:28,784
"Y, y... "

340
00:14:28,868 --> 00:14:29,827
I'm going out.

341
00:14:29,910 --> 00:14:31,871
I run errands
during the day.

342
00:14:31,954 --> 00:14:33,497
Could you pick me up
a lemonade and a beer?

343
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:34,707
(door slamming)

344
00:14:40,462 --> 00:14:41,380
(mail slot clatters)

345
00:14:41,463 --> 00:14:43,340
The mail. The mail is here!

346
00:14:43,424 --> 00:14:47,720
Ooh! "An urgent plea
from Edward James Olmos."

347
00:14:47,803 --> 00:14:50,222
"Lisa Simpson,
can you afford to miss

348
00:14:50,306 --> 00:14:52,516
another issue
of the Utne Reader?"

349
00:14:54,435 --> 00:14:55,936
Kids.

350
00:14:56,020 --> 00:14:58,188
Free sample
of fabric softener?

351
00:14:58,272 --> 00:14:59,148
Woo-hoo!

352
00:15:02,651 --> 00:15:03,736
(dryer buzzes)

353
00:15:05,529 --> 00:15:06,739
Mmm.

354
00:15:06,822 --> 00:15:09,199
I can feel three
kinds of softness.

355
00:15:09,283 --> 00:15:11,243
Dad, what are you
doing down there?

356
00:15:11,327 --> 00:15:14,371
Washing
my fat-guy hat, honey.

357
00:15:14,455 --> 00:15:17,791
<i>ANNOUNCER: We now return</i>
<i>to search for the sun.</i>

358
00:15:17,875 --> 00:15:20,252

Uh, what's your
Dad's job again?

363
00:15:35,434 --> 00:15:38,145
He's a nuclear
safety technician.

364
00:15:38,228 --> 00:15:40,606
What's he doing
with that broom?

365
00:15:40,689 --> 00:15:42,650
Uh, what isn't he doing?

366
00:15:42,733 --> 00:15:46,528
I heard that guy's ass
has its own congressman.

367
00:15:46,612 --> 00:15:48,155
(guffawing)

368
00:15:48,238 --> 00:15:50,407
Hey, leave my dad alone.

369
00:15:50,491 --> 00:15:52,785
Just because he's overweight
doesn't mean he's bad.

370
00:15:52,868 --> 00:15:56,121
He's a sweet man,
and he has real feelings.

371
00:15:56,205 --> 00:15:57,247
Hey, what are you
kids looking at?

372
00:15:57,331 --> 00:15:58,582
Hey, look.

373
00:15:58,666 --> 00:16:00,376
He's trying to get up
to yell at us.

374
00:16:00,459 --> 00:16:02,294
Don't make me
close that shade.

00:16:02,378 --> 00:16:04,338
(groaning)

376
00:16:06,423 --> 00:16:08,258
Hey, Homer,
you promised Mom

377
00:16:08,342 --> 00:16:09,635
you wouldn't wear
your dress outside.

378
00:16:09,718 --> 00:16:12,304
Nuts to that.
I'm going to the movies.

379
00:16:12,388 --> 00:16:13,597
Shouldn't you be working?

380
00:16:13,681 --> 00:16:14,848
I got someone
to cover for me.

381
00:16:15,975 --> 00:16:18,143
(beeps)

382
00:16:22,064 --> 00:16:23,107
One for honk, please.

383
00:16:23,190 --> 00:16:25,484
Oh, gee, uh,
just a minute.

384
00:16:25,567 --> 00:16:27,736
I have to check
with the manager.

385
00:16:29,655 --> 00:16:32,116
That overweight guy
wants to see the movie.

386
00:16:33,492 --> 00:16:34,702
I'm terribly sorry, sir

387
00:16:34,785 --> 00:16:36,036
but I'm afraid
our facilities

388
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,496
are not equipped
to meet your needs.

389
00:16:37,579 --> 00:16:39,415
What are you talking about?

390
00:16:39,498 --> 00:16:41,375
What I'm saying, sir,
is that a man of your carriage

391
00:16:41,458 --> 00:16:43,127
couldn't possibly
fit in our seats.

392
00:16:43,210 --> 00:16:44,712
I could sit
in the aisle.

393
00:16:44,795 --> 00:16:46,922
I'm afraid that would
violate the fire code.

394
00:16:47,006 --> 00:16:49,675
MAN: Hey, fatty,
I got a movie for you--

395
00:16:49,758 --> 00:16:51,552
A Fridge Too Far.

396
00:16:51,635 --> 00:16:52,970
(laughing)

397
00:16:54,555 --> 00:16:55,681
Shame on all of you.

398
00:16:55,764 --> 00:16:57,474
Give me my dignity.

399
00:16:57,558 --> 00:16:59,935
I just came here to see
"Honk if You're Horny" in peace.

400
00:17:00,019 --> 00:17:01,020
Sir, if you
just quiet down,

401
00:17:01,103 --> 00:17:02,104
I'd be happy
to treat you

402
00:17:02,187 --> 00:17:04,023
to a garbage bag
full of popcorn.

403
00:17:04,106 --> 00:17:08,235
This may surprise you, but you
can't buy me off with food.

404
00:17:08,318 --> 00:17:10,863
I'm sick of all your
stereotypes and cheap jokes.

405
00:17:10,946 --> 00:17:12,906
The overweight individuals
in this country

406
00:17:12,990 --> 00:17:15,075
are just as smart and talented

407
00:17:15,159 --> 00:17:16,744
and hardworking
as everybody else

408
00:17:16,827 --> 00:17:18,704
and they're going to make
their voices heard.

409
00:17:18,787 --> 00:17:20,372
All they need is a leader.

410
00:17:20,456 --> 00:17:22,249
Huh!

411
00:17:22,332 --> 00:17:24,293
I'll work harder than ever
before and show the world

412
00:17:24,376 --> 00:17:25,669
overweight people aren't

413
00:17:25,753 --> 00:17:28,714
undisciplined,
lazy and irresponsible.

414
00:17:28,797 --> 00:17:29,965
What happened to my bird?

415
00:17:32,926 --> 00:17:35,846
Oh. Marge?

416
00:17:35,929 --> 00:17:37,681
Lisa?

417
00:17:37,765 --> 00:17:39,308
Flanders?

418
00:17:43,854 --> 00:17:46,482
"Explosion imminent"!

419
00:17:46,565 --> 00:17:48,650
Oh, my God!

420
00:17:48,734 --> 00:17:50,360
The plant's going to explode!

421
00:17:50,444 --> 00:17:52,780
(metal rattling and groaning)

422
00:17:52,863 --> 00:17:55,324
Hey, that thing's going
kah-kah koo-koo.

423
00:17:55,407 --> 00:17:56,950
Who cares?
It's Homer's problem.

424
00:17:57,034 --> 00:17:58,285
Wait. I know.

425
00:17:58,368 --> 00:18:00,162
"Vent gas."

426
00:18:00,245 --> 00:18:01,789

429
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:06,919
Oh, stupid bird!

430
00:18:07,002 --> 00:18:09,171
I never should have
put you in charge.

431
00:18:09,254 --> 00:18:10,130
Why, you--

432
00:18:11,465 --> 00:18:12,591
Oh, who am I kidding?

433
00:18:12,674 --> 00:18:14,093
It's all my fault.

434
00:18:16,136 --> 00:18:17,137
I got to call the plant
and warn them.

435
00:18:21,058 --> 00:18:23,685

Oh!

Hey, buddy, you gonna
slow your car down and let me in

445
00:18:45,457 --> 00:18:46,959
because I'm a big, fat guy
and I can't go anywhere

446
00:18:47,042 --> 00:18:48,418
because there's going to be
some poison gas.

447
00:18:48,502 --> 00:18:50,003
I mean it's gonna
be really poisonous!

448
00:18:50,087 --> 00:18:52,047
Everybody's going to be dead,
especially me!

449

450
00:18:57,469 --> 00:18:59,388
Hey, buddy, you got
to let me in your car!

451

455
00:19:12,401 --> 00:19:14,653
I heard your dad
went into a restaurant

456
00:19:14,736 --> 00:19:16,405
and ate everything
in the restaurant

457
00:19:16,488 --> 00:19:18,407
and they had to close
the restaurant.

458
00:19:18,490 --> 00:19:20,576
Hey! My dad may have gained
a little weight

459
00:19:20,659 --> 00:19:23,537
but he's not some kind
of food-crazed maniac!

Oh, that's
raspberry.

00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:37,176

465
00:19:37,259 --> 00:19:40,220

00:20:44,952 --> 00:20:47,287
There's probably a...

487
00:20:47,371 --> 00:20:48,622
(screams)

488
00:20:53,001 --> 00:20:55,212
Homer, your bravery
and quick thinking

489
00:20:55,295 --> 00:20:57,589
have turned
a potential Chernobyl

490
00:20:57,673 --> 00:20:59,633
into a mere
Three-Mile Island.

491
00:20:59,716 --> 00:21:01,510
Bravo!

492
00:21:03,303 --> 00:21:05,681
I think it's ironic that
Dad saved the day

493
00:21:05,764 --> 00:21:08,350
while a slimmer man would
have fallen to his death.

494
00:21:08,433 --> 00:21:10,727
And I think it's ironic that,
for once, Dad's butt

495
00:21:10,811 --> 00:21:11,895
prevented the release
of toxic gas.

496
00:21:11,979 --> 00:21:12,980
Bart!

497
00:21:13,063 --> 00:21:14,731
We'll have you
out of there

498
00:21:14,815 --> 00:21:17,109
as soon as our tech boys
get you decontaminated.

499
00:21:17,192 --> 00:21:19,945
(laughs)
Thank you, Mr. Burns.

500
00:21:20,028 --> 00:21:21,905
It was pretty scary
up there...

501
00:21:21,989 --> 00:21:23,532
(laughs)

502
00:21:23,615 --> 00:21:25,617
For a while,
I feared for my life!

503
00:21:25,701 --> 00:21:27,411
(laughing hysterically)

504
00:21:27,494 --> 00:21:28,996
Oh! Stop!

505
00:21:29,079 --> 00:21:31,248
Now, Homer,
if there's anything else

506
00:21:31,331 --> 00:21:34,167
I can do for you, please
don't hesitate to ask.

507
00:21:39,715 --> 00:21:42,801
Mr. Burns, can you
make me thin again?

508
00:21:42,884 --> 00:21:44,511
I guarantee it.

509
00:21:45,762 --> 00:21:46,847
One.

510
00:21:46,930 --> 00:21:48,849
One.

511
00:21:48,932 --> 00:21:50,350
One!

512
00:21:50,434 --> 00:21:53,186
Bah! I'll just pay
for the blasted liposuction.

513
00:21:53,270 --> 00:21:54,438
Woo-hoo!
