Another Simpson's classic. There are lots of laughs throughout the episode.
Homer's diagnosis is clogged arteries and he needs triple bypass surgery. Homer turns to Dr. Nick who advertises, on an infomercial, any surgery for $129.95. Homer has no health insurance from the power plant and the operation goes from $30K to 40K. Homer failed in securing loans from Reverend Lovejoy & Rabbi Krustofsky.
The bit where Dr. Hibbert performs the "fat giggle test" on Homer is priceless.
Another great bit was Dr. Nick , while talking with the Simpsons before surgery, hearing an announcement over the intercom asking him to report to the morgue as the coroner is waiting to see him. Dr. Nick's response, "The coroner. I'm so sick of that guy. I'll see you in the operating place.
While performing surgery Dr. Nick starts singing his version of "Dem Dry Bones."
"The knee bones connected to the.......something.
The something's connected to the red thing.
The red thing's connected to my wristwatch. Uh oh!"
Easily in my top 5 episode from Season 4. A must see for any Simpson's fan.
