    • Quotes

      Homer: Marge? Since I'm not talking to Lisa, would you please ask her to pass me the syrup?

      Marge: Dear, please pass your father the syrup, Lisa.

      Lisa: Bart, tell Dad I will only pass the syrup if it won't be used on any meat product.

      Bart: You dunkin' your sausages in that syrup homeboy?

      Homer: Marge, tell Bart I just want to drink a nice glass of syrup like I do every morning.

      Marge: Tell him yourself, you're ignoring Lisa, not Bart.

      Homer: Bart, thank your mother for pointing that out.

      Marge: Homer, you're not not-talking to me and secondly I heard what you said.

      Homer: Lisa, tell your mother to get off my case.

      Bart: Uhhh, dad, Lisa's the one you're not talking to.

      Homer: Bart, go to your room.

      Lisa: Why don't you just eat him, Dad?

      Homer: I don't need any serving suggestions from you! You barbeque-wrecking, know-nothing know-it-all!

      Lisa: That's IT! I can't live in a house with this prehistoric carnivore. I am out of here!

      [leaves and slams the door]

      Homer: That's it! Go to your room!

    The satire is strong with this one
    The plot is great and in perfect line with Lisa's character development; the gags are a-plenty and are both well-written and well-delivered; the satire manages to hit home and be funny at the same time. There's even a bit of nuanced realism at the end, so it avoids looking preachy.
