That rare draft of the constitution

Mr Burns longs for his childhood teddy bear.

This is a very strong episode with some great character moments and strong humour.

The Citizen Kane parody is exceptionally good and the basis for so much humour. Plus I love the references to historical figures in the context of Bobo's journey through time.

The humour is generally excellent with a number of standout moments like Mr Burns' birthday show, his various attempts to obtain the bear.

When Mr Burns interacts with Maggie near the end it gives the story a heartwarming conclusion to remember. I love how intelligent she is written and emotionally aware.
