Kodos[Disguised as Bill Clinton] I am Clin-Ton. As overlord, all will kneel trembling before me and obey my brutal commands. End communication.
Kodos[crowd cheers] My fellow Americans. As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball. But tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward, upward not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom. [crowd cheers]
KodosShhhhh!
Hey, Springfield! Are you suffering from the heartbreak of...Monster-itis? Then take a tip from Mr. Paul Anka!
[singing] To stop these monsters 1-2-3, Here's a fresh new way that's trouble free, It's got Paul Anka's guarantee...
[singing] Guarantee void in Tennessee.
[singing] Just don't look! Just don't look! [people turn away: the monsters turn to look] Just don't look! Just don't look! [more people turn away] Just don’t look! Just don’t look! [the monsters try to destroy things faster, but start collapsing. Paul Bunyon falls on the Springfield General Hospital, his ox Babe destroys the birthplace of Jebediah Springfield, and a flying magic carpet destroys the birthplace of Norman Vincent Peale.]
It worked! They're all dead.
Well, except for chubsy-ubsy over there.
[everyone turns and gasps and Lard Lad tempts Homer with the giant donut]
Mmm...sprinkles.
Homer! Stop looking.
Don't make us poke your eyes out, Dad. [they drag him away]
[groaning] Oh!
[Lard Lad collapses, he falls, his donut rolls away. Kodos and Kang, meanwhile, are trying to hitch a ride in the middle of the desert with a sign saying "Earth Capital"]
KodosHere comes something!
Remember the story: we're newlyweds on our way to Earth Capital. [the donut rolls by as Kang smiles] Oh, Shazbot.
Even as I speak, the scourge of advertising could be heading toward your town! Lock your doors, bar your windows, because the next advertisement you see could destroy your house and eat your family!
We'll be right back.
[After Kang and Kodos have been exposed]
KodosIt’s true; we are aliens. But what are you going to do about it?! It's a two-party system; you have to vote for one of us!
[The crowd mutters in consternation as they realize he's right]
Well I believe I'll vote for a third-party candidate!
Go ahead, throw your vote away!
[Kang and Kodos laugh out loud. Ross Perot smashes his "Perot 96" hat. The next day, Kodos announces the result.]
KodosAll hail, President Kang.
[The French neutron bomb nearly hits Kang and Kodos' ship]
KodosWhat the hell was that?!
[speaking into microphone] Calling home planet! This is Ensign Kang reporting a cigar-shaped object moving at tremendous speed!
[on Rigel VII] Sure, Kang, I'm writing that all down.
[he and his superior laugh amongst themselves]
I can't believe it. Jerry Springer didn't solve our conflict.
And now he's dead.
Any-Hoo, this is your last chance. Turn over the baby now!
KodosOr we will destroy all your leaders in Washington!
[not intimidated] Oh, you can't destroy every politician!
[darkly] Just watch us.
[Kang and Kodos laugh maniacally as they enter their spaceship and take off.]
Don't forget Ken Starr!
Suckers.
Come on, Maggie. Let’s go home.
[In Kang’s voice] Very well, I’ll drive. [Maggie laughs maniacally as the screen fades to black and starting opening credits showrunner.] I need blood. [After the credits of showrunner, Halloween ending theme music is hear of end credits roll. After the credits, Regis Philbin yells]
My eyes! My beautiful eyes!
[As the organ music plays in Gracie Films logo, the same as "Treehouse of Horror II" and 20th Century Fox Television logos appears at the end of the episode]
[After the final story is over, but this episode isn't. The scene cuts to the bridge of Kang and Kodos's spaceship]
Can you believe it, Kodos? They left us out of the Halloween show.
KodosAre you sure the space phone is working? [Kang tried it] Hang up, they could be trying to call right now!
I knew we should have sent them a muffin basket.
[The phone rings. Kodos answers]
KodosKang and Kodos Productions. Uh-huh. Yes. Just a second. Do we want to do a commercial for something called, "Old Navy?"
[shrugs] Ehh, work is work.
We're here at game six of the World Series. The highlights so far: a cloud shaped like a giraffe that floated by during the rain delay. Oh, would you look at that? The Batter just called 'time out' again. Now, let's look in the stands at the players' wives. Well, what do you know? They're talking on cellphones. No doubt complaining about the good life.
This is the most boring game in all the universe!
KodosAnd with all the steroids they take, the players look like freaks!
Freaks! Freaks!
[emerges from the left side of Kodos] Freaks! Freaks! Freaks! [Kodos bites his conjoined baby and eats it]
And next week on FOX, catch the new O.C. spin-off, Pomona. It's even hotter away from the beach. Mm-mmm.
If we don't speed up this game, the Simpsons Halloween Special won't air until Administrative Professionals' Day!
KodosSpeaking of which, we must remember to get Dorothy something. [He holds a picture of them with Dorothy, with both making love sounds. Kang then looks at a baseball player who blows bubble gum very slowly.]
The boredom is excruciating! Fire the Accele-Ray!
KodosThis is the best musical in light years!
Light years measure distance, not time.
KodosYou know what I meant.
Once again, they just had a cameo!
KodosDon't be confused, or they'll put us in 4:3 (4 by 3)! [The black bars split into HDTV and transform into SDTV (4:3)] Oh, they're doing it! No!!!!!!
Just because it looks like Season 4 doesn't make it season four!
