    • Quotes

      Lenny: Hey Carl, check out the overhead scoreboard.

      Carl: [laughs] Poo... Ah, Homer. What whacky name do you want?

      Homer Simpson: Are poo and ass taken?

      Carl: Yeah.

      Homer Simpson: Damn! Could my life get any worse?

      [Burns appears on Homer's bowling ball]

      Montgomery Burns: Simpson! Duhf, even for a bowler you're fat.

      Homer Simpson: Hey guys, is it normal to see Burns' face on a bowling ball?

      Lenny: Nnh, actually I'd say you're having a severe psychotic episode.

      Homer Simpson: Ugh, what a rotten day!

      [Homer rolls a strike]

      Lenny: Wow, a strike. Hey, if that's psychotic, then why am I taking these?

      [Lenny throws out his pills]

    7/10
    Homer bowls a perfect game in a nearly perfect episode
    Homer bowls a perfect game and nearly loses the love of his youngest Daughter, Maggie, in the process in this fun episode from the 11th series.

    Yes, a bit of the realism this show had at the start has gone (Homer eating from a drum of toxic waste) but the heart of it still remains.

    There are lots of funny moments throughout this episode, that centres on the shows funniest character in Homer.
