Sir you can't operate a boat under the influence of alcohol.
HomerOh, that sounds like a wager to me.
Homer SimpsonHear ye, hear ye! The intergalactic jester proclaims this conformity factory closed!
[Kids cheer and burst out of the school]
15 years of loyal service and this is how they tell me? A jester with an invisible proclamation?
Homer SimpsonGood morning, Starshine, Seth.
[Seth and Munchie gasp to find their garden is empty]
What's going on?
What happened to our crops?
Homer SimpsonI picked them, juiced them, and delivered them to every store in town. Your business is saved.
But there weren't enough vegetables left to fill that order.
Homer SimpsonThat's what I thought of first. But then I found the other garden behind the barn, the one with the camouflaged netting.
Uh-oh.
Homer, those were our personal vegetables.
Homer SimpsonBut now the town can benefit from their own nutrients.
How could you let me turn into you?
HomerBut-but-but the poncho--
Young Homer"But-but-but the poncho!" Hit the road, square.
Doctor, will he be all right?
Yes, he was lucky. If that were a gladiola, he'd be dead right now.
Why don't you just pull it out?
[laughs] I'm a doctor, not a gardener.
HomerCouldn't you prune some of the leaves so I can watch TV?
What did I just say?
HomerHurry up, my arms are getting cold.
[Lisa sneezes inside the freezer. Marge arrives]
Oh my goodness! Homer, get her out of there!
HomerAw! [pulls Lisa out of the freezer shivering holding an ice cream can]
Homer[Picks the ice cream can from Lisa] Sherbert Hoover? [throws it back on the freezer]
[grumbling and mopping in the kitchen] Who left these muddy claw prints on my clean floor?
HomerSorry, Marge. Pinchy got all dirty in the yard chasing birds. But don't worry! I put him in a nice hot bath.
[sniffs the air] Hey, what smells so good?
HomerYeah... [with growing realization and horror] Pinchy? Pinchy?! Oh...! PINCHY!!!!!!
[Homer hurries away to the bathroom. Later, he is seen crying while eating Pinchy's cooked body at the dinner table]
HomerOh, man, that's good...! [sob] Pass the butter?
[passing it] Are you gonna eat that all by yourself?
HomerUh-huh. Pinchy would've wanted it this way. My dear, sweet Pinchy...! [takes a bite] No more pain where you are now, boy. [breaks the lobster's body in half and sucks out the meat] Oh God, that's tasty! I wish Pinchy were here to enjoy this! [sobs and takes more bites] Oh, Pinchy...!
Can I go to the bathroom before we leave?
HomerOh, we gotta get home. I don't wanna miss Inside the Actors Studio. Tonight it's F. Murray Abraham.
But I really...
HomerF...MURRAY...ABRAHAM!
Well, I gotta hand it to you, Homer, you're really brave to go through with this operation.
HomerIt's not an operation, Moe. The doctor says it's just a procedure.
No, no, no - making polenta, that's a procedure. You're talking about deadly life-threatening surgery here.
Homer[worried] Really? You think It's dangerous?
Oh yeah, and even if you survive the operation--
HomerProcedure! Deadly procedure.
Whatever; the point is, with only one kidney, you won't be able to drink yourself stupid no more.
HomerNow you're just trying to scare me.
Plus, they'll put you on one of those organ donor sucker lists. Everyone who wants an eyeball or a spine or a vestigial tail will be after ya!
HomerBut I don't want that!
Listen, I'm just gonna get right to the point here - can I have your buttocks? I mean, if you die. They look pretty comfortable.
HomerYeah, I guess...
And, uh, are those your original lips?
HomerWell, actually I-- Hey! Quit harvesting me with your eyes! [storms out of the bar]
[watching him leave] Oh yeah, that would look so good on me!
HomerMarge, I've been thinking - what if instead of donating one of my old worn-out kidneys, I gave Grampa that artificial kidney I invented?
Homer, that was just a beer can with a whistle glued to it.
HomerIf I die during the operation, will you do one thing for me?
Oooh, anything, sweetheart.
Homer[serious tone] Blow up the hospital.
YEEEEEESSSSSS?
HomerDo you have a table for the mayor?
YEEEEEESSSSS!
HomerWhy do you talk like that?
I had a STROOOOOOKE!
Homer Simpson[to Bart and Lisa] Hold it, what's your clearance?
We just wanna get a snack.
Homer SimpsonAccess denied.
But, Dad... [Homer pinches the kids on the shoulder, sending them to the floor, unconscious]
Homer, I don't want you using your new sleeper hold on the children.
HomerThey'll be fine in half an hour.
If I was Fat Tony, and God willing someday I will be, I'd just be stewing in my jail cell getting madder and madder.
HomerI don't have to worry about that, he's already out on bail. Well, I'm off to work.
You're guarding the mayor tonight, after Fat Tony swore revenge?
HomerIt's my duty, Marge. Besides, those mobsters don't scare me. Bart, will you start daddy's car?
Homer!
HomerWhat? There's nothing to worry about.
Well, then you start it.
HomerAlright, fine, I'll take a cab.
[As Homer fights for his life against one of Fat Tony's men]
Homer, use the-!
HomerThe Force?
The forks! Use the forks!
