    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Hank Scorpio was planned to return as the villain of The Simpsons Movie (2007), but the creators decided that he was too likable to turn into a full-blown villain. The movie's actual villain, Russ Cargill, is also voiced by Albert Brooks.
    • Goofs
      The Simpsons move away to Cypress Creek and abandon their old house, yet only take one car with them (the station wagon), while the other just disappears and is never seen until the next episode.
    • Quotes

      Hank Scorpio: Uh, hi, Homer. What can I do for you?

      Homer: Sir, I need to know where I can get some business hammocks.

      Hank Scorpio: Hammocks? My goodness, what an idea. Why didn't I think of that? Hammocks! Homer, there's four places. There's the Hammock Hut, that's on third.

      Homer: Uh-huh.

      Hank Scorpio: There's Hammocks-R-Us, that's on third too. You got Put-Your-Butt-There.

      Homer: Mm-Hmm.

      Hank Scorpio: That's on third. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot... Matter of fact, they're all in the same complex; it's the hammock complex on third.

      Homer: Oh, the hammock district!

      Hank Scorpio: That's right.

    The Best "Simpsons" Episode?
    Is this the greatest episode of the greatest sitcom in television history? Probably not, but it's still my favorite. Bart's "Leg Up" class, Homer's motivational speech, the greatest Bond villain of them all, and the Denver Broncos - what more could you want? This alone is enough reason to pick up Season Eight on DVD (when it is finally made available to those able to resist the temptation to download 'em all), to preserve one of the finest examples of this much-beloved series for all eternity, or at least until DVDs are replaced by some even shinier format of home video. So look upon the greatness of this episode and despair! And if it's not too much trouble, could you kill someone on your way out? It'd be a big help.
