      Bart: Watch this, Lis. You can actually pinpoint the second when his heart rips in half.

      [he advances the tape in slow motion]

      Bart: And... now!

    Lisa Has a Boyfriend?
    This is the fifteenth episode of the fourth season of the Simpsons and it's a very good episode, one with a satisfying romantic background. The episode revolves with Lisa falling in love, or shall we say some boy falling in love with Lisa. It was also funny to watch how easily corrupt the cops are in Springfield, especially Chief Wiggum. But on the whole, this is a pretty funny episode.

    In this episode, "I Love Lisa," Lisa gives her classmate Ralph a Valentine's Day card out of sympathy, but Ralph takes it the wrong way and he falls in love with Lisa, although Lisa does not return the favor. When Ralph gets tickets for the Krusty Klown anniversary show, Lisa makes her feelings become true to Ralph.

    Overall, this is a very good episode that tackles on weighty issues such as romance. The cultural references are excellent as usual as my favorite scene is Bart channeling his inner Arnold Schwarzenegger in a terrific Terminator 2 sequence. Plus I love how Krusty rocks out to a Doors song, so that was funny. Another fun episode! I rate this episode 9/10.
