Quotes

Sideshow Bob: I can stand in one state, fire a gun in the second state, the bullet will travel through the third, hitting you in the fourth, so you'll fall down dead in the fifth! No single act is against any law, but their sum total is the greatest murder since Snape killed Dumbledore!
Bart Simpson: Oh, I haven't gotten to that part yet!
Sideshow Bob: It's a four-year-old book.
Bart Simpson: I'm a slow reader.
Sideshow Bob: A fitting epitaph.

One of Sideshow Bobs cleverest schemes,
18 August 2010 | by (Ireland) – See all my reviews

The Bob Next Door is a fantastic Simpsons episode,with a lot of shocking surprises,the story all plans out great,its also got to be one of Sideshow Bobs cleverest schemes.

When The Simpsons neighbours move out,they get a new one called Walt Warren,who everyone in Evergreen Terrace gets a good first impression of,apart from Bart who suspects that hes Sideshow Bob,because he sounds a lot like him.
