The Simpsons

THE D'OH-GHNUT TEAM

Night time.

Hello!

In a conflict as old as pencil and paper,

two mighty armies square off in a battle

between cross and circle...

Remember my son,

the one who controls the center controls the board.

I don't understand, Master.

I begin to fear you are too stupid.

I love you, Rome-O!

I love you, Julie-X!

Tic-tac-no!

On July 4,

it's your move.

From the producers of Duck, Duck Goose,"

Got Your Nose and One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich."

What's going on?

Look at this electric bill!

I'm not made of money! I'm made of man-meat and a skeleton!

It's time to unplug these vampire appliances

that plunge their prongs into our creamy white outlets

to quench their unholy thirst for electrons.

Lamp, computer, Jacob's Ladder...

What the... How long has this been running?

Dad, while I agree reducing consumption is great,

it's hard to make permanent changes in your lifestyle.

Are you calling me fat?

I am suggesting you consider cheaper,

alternate sources of energy.

Alternative Energy Expo.

Where there's expos, there's free Frisbees!

Let's roll. But we'd better make sure robbers don't know we're out.

Come on, let's go. Who you waiting for?

Come on.

Do they think I'm like an idiot?

I'm going to enjoy pooping on their carpet.

You son of a...

Now, on to the next funny booth.

Solar power is a bright idea!

Yeah, so is getting a real job.

Dad! I found what you're looking for!

A churro you can eat in the shower?

Goddag, friendlys.

Behold to you... wind!

The energy that powers Denmark.

I'm not usually one to take the word of a Dane.

Plus, how can I afford it?

Well, there are tax credits, government rebates.

It will pay for itself in 12 to 18...

- Months? - Lifetimes.

Tie it to my car, and you got a deal.

Lars, get the twine!

You will not regret this.

- I'm starting to regret it already. - Too late. Lars got the twine.

Dad, you are leading the way in clean energy.

I Al-Gored it pretty good.

Where's my Grammy for audio book narration?

It's making our meter run backwards!

My goodness! We're traveling back in time!

I can warn President Lincoln to dump his wife before she goes crazy!

Dad, we're just providing power to the electric company.

That's just great.

I discover electricity, and they want to take it from me!

Hello, local utility?

You bastards have gouged Homer Simpson for the last time.

We will cancel your account.

The Simpsons are off the grid.

And so far it's going great.

Gentlemen, tonight's game is brought to us by something special.

The kite's best friend, the flag's partner in patriotism,

you've seen cherubs blow it from map corners...

the wind!

- All right! - Blow me some sports!

Over the ramparts, we...

Over the ramparts we what?

Don't worry, I'll go see what's wrong.

What the... Who turned off the wind?

Dad, if we're really off the grid,

then we won't get power when the air is still.

I'm not crawling back to big electricity!

From now on, the Simpsons are living...

intermittently.

My smoothie is all lumpy!

The wind may have stopped working, but my brain nev...

... er does.

Check it out, gang.

But, it defeats the purpose if you're powering our windmill

with the electricity from Flanders.

This meeting of your fan club is adjourned!

But we haven't read the minutes of last week's meeting!

You used to be nicer!

When is my turn over?

Bart, please!

I'm trying to hear Dr. House's third incorrect diagnosis

before his final correct diagnosis!

Dear Lord, you've got the wind I need,

I've got the prayers you crave.

Let's make a deal.

Nt's Weather Worriers are reporting gusts up to 75...

Now we're cookin' with wind!

Homie, maybe this is too much electricity.

Nothing is ever right for you.

Why can't our house ever be that bright?

Nothing is ever right for you.

Finally.

Well, the lesson here is...

We're gonna go check out the wind damage.

Be careful! If you see a downed power line,

do whatever it is people are supposed to do

in that situation.

Make it stop! Make it stop!

Look at the cool stuff that washed up!

Scuba goggles!

Medical waste!

My God!

A beached whale!

Can you believe that something so mighty

has been rendered so powerless?

I'm gonna have my next birthday party on this thing.

Ay, caramba.

She's such a beautiful shade of blue.

I'm going to call you Bluella the whale.

Check it out! World's biggest armpit fart.

You just made a powerful enemy!

Come on, everybody!

A whale needs help!

Why should we?

Where was that whale when my mom moved out?

Whales are mammals like us.

They're sensitive and deeply intelligent.

Nerd!

I'm going to get real help.

Just try to keep her wet.

Want to learn more about whaling?

Sure!

Want me to "knock it off?"

I'm afraid to answer that.

Never tell a bully you're afraid.

Our wedding china's ruined.

We'll have to eat Thanksgiving dinner off regular plates like animals.

Mom, Dad, there's a whale on the beach.

You gotta help me get her back in the ocean.

All right. Let me get my tool belt.

Man, who are these belts made for, French super models?

Hurry, Dad, hurry!

Homie, can I talk to you for a second?

- Sure. Lisa, bring the car around. - I don't know how to drive.

Haven't you learned anything from watching Bart drive?

A little.

Homie, I happened to read about beached whales

in Springfield Geographic.

It usually does not end well.

We can't let Lisa get her hopes up.

Marge, how hard can it be?

We're just rolling it into the ocean from the beach.
