Sexy dames and plenty of 'em!

Well, I suppose I could name it the... "Matlock Expressway"!

Fortunately, we have a plan. Professor Frink?
Mu-hi. Good evening, ladies and—
MMan
Quit stalling! What's the plan?!
Alright, just take your seat, just take your seat. [removes cloth, to a scale model of Springfield] Now, working with former Carter-administration officials and military men who were forced into early retirement—for various reasons which we won't go here, okay?—we have planned this defense for the city. [flips switch] As the comet hurdles toward the city, our rocket will intercept it, and blow it to smithereens. Ma-hyvin! [explodes. Flames land onto Moe's bar]

[Slide of Smithers]
My... my parents insisted I give it a try, sir.
[Slide of Quimby, wearing a "Mayor" sash]
QQuimby
Uh, well, that could be any mayor.
QQuimby
Er, uh, well... eh, in light of these new facts, of which I now realize I was largely aware, I must take action. All in favor of demolishing our beloved burlesque house, raise your hands.

The gin in your martini
The clams on your linguine

And so for helping to K.O. litter in our community, I hereby dedicate this statue of Drederick Tatum.

Your press secretary.
QQuimby
I knew I should have hired my nephew!

Okay, so I stink! Tough Toblerone! Read the charter people! I can't be removed from office... except by a simple recall election... please disregard that last part!
QQuimby
Don't you idiots see what this means?
Idiots? Why do we re-elect this guy?
Because his opponent has a long Slavic name.
