A black screen gives way to a blue sky filled with drifting tan clouds, and the yellow words "THE SIMPS" then "THE SIMPSON" appear among them, with the letters bobbing and the title being revealed in full. The sequence ends on a view of Springfield below, with green hills, colorful fields, brick buildings, a sign reading "Springfield" on a red-roofed building, and two grey nuclear cooling towers marked with atom symbols, while a dark mound of tires sits in the lower left and an orange dome is at the bottom. > The Simpsons Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S03E03/1043.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s03e03-when-flanders-failed/5214 ## 0:10–0:20 Bart, the spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt, is first seen inside a classroom through a purple-framed window of a yellow school building on a sunny street beside a striped-awning shop labeled DAIRY, then he walks to the chalkboard. He writes 'NOBODY LIKES SUNBURN' and 'SLAPPERS' in repeated rows, and at the end he grins and strikes a bent-knee pose with his arm stretched toward the board, beside a red trash can and a round wall clock. The school's sign reads ELEMENTARY SCHOOL above brown double doors.

Next, Marge, with her tall blue beehive and red bead necklace, reads a Mom Monthly magazine whose cover says Frosted Krusty Flakes at a store counter, while Maggie, with a blue bow, watches a clerk in a grey apron and pink shirt work at a register beside a red package on the counter.

Lisa in her red skirt and pearl necklace plays a light blue saxophone in a music room as two girls in pink play flutes beside her, and a stout older conductor with white side hair and a bow tie raises his hand in front of a music stand. Lisa then walks with the saxophone down an orange-walled hallway toward a pair of blue double doors, passing framed posters and a bust on a red pedestal. > Oh, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S03E03/33367.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s03e03-when-flanders-failed/38372 ## 0:44–0:55 Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt, drives a pink car with his eyes shut, then jerks a hand to his face in wide-eyed alarm while gripping the wheel. Bart, the spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt, rides a yellow skateboard past an orange brick building with an OPEN sign in its window, then stands on his board outside a red door where Moe, holding a white towel, Apu in a green jacket, and the heavy, messy-haired Barney look on. Bart rolls out into the road grinning as Chief Wiggum in his blue police uniform points and shouts after him.

Later, on a grassy hill, Grampa and others lie on blankets while a man in a black skull shirt and Homer in his white shirt and blue trousers walk past, and Bart stands on the roof of a pink car in a driveway next to a yellow garage with a mailbox and a pile of boxes inside. Homer ends up beside the pink car with his arms spread wide, looking toward it. > my God.

Homer grips an orange weed whacker with both hands, glaring and working it along the grass, while Ned stands by with his hands at his sides and the whacker's shaft and head are visible as Homer moves. Across the lower part of the scene, white credit text reads 'Co-Executive Producers AL JEAN & MIKE REISS' and then 'Supervising Producers JAY KOGEN & WALLACE WOLODARSKY', and a blue plate on a red-and-orange lawn mower reads 'PROPERTY OF NED FLANDERS' in the earlier beat, which opens from black. > Hey, Homer, you silly goose, the weed whacker's just for the edges. > You're gonna be out here all day. > I'm almost done. You are a picture and a half.

Homer first crouches over a patch of grass, holding a small orange object, and then stands up to face Ned, who speaks while Homer folds his arms with a scowl. Ned then grins and holds up a white card reading 'THE SIMPSONS' while Homer leans in at his shoulder, and the scene shifts to the pair standing by the fence with Homer holding the card in a white-bordered title and Ned smiling. The on-screen credits read 'Producer GEORGE MEYER' and 'Produced By RICHARD SAKAI, LARINA JEAN ADAMSON, DAVID SILVERMAN' over the sky and houses. > Well, if you're finished by tomorrow, come on over and strap on the feed bag. > We're gonna fire up old propane Elaine and put the heat to the meat. > Nummy nummy num.

Homer then holds up a booklet titled 'Bar-B-Que with the Flanders', which shows Ned Flanders with his moustache and glasses and a woman with curly hair. Lisa, with star-shaped spiky hair and a red bead necklace, reads the same booklet at the kitchen table, where Marge with her tall blue beehive, Maggie with a pacifier, and Homer sit. Homer gestures and talks with an annoyed expression while Lisa keeps reading, and the booklet's cover and a 'The Simpsons' book are visible on the table. > Naughty naughty nut. > The Flanders are having a beef-a-thon. > Incredible Netables, Maudacious Vittles. > Hmm, I think it means he's having a barbecue. > Why didn't he just say so? He's trying to be friendly.

Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt, sits at the counter with a pink mug, first rubbing his face with one hand, then looking up with a frown and opening his mouth to speak. Marge gestures with an open hand as Homer grows agitated, finally throwing both arms out wide in exasperation while Maggie keeps sucking her bottle. Yellow cabinets, a wall phone with a coiled cord, a clipboard on the wall, and a heart-shaped note on the fridge are visible, and a caption reading 'Co-Producer JON VITTI' appears over the lower middle of the scene. > You know, if you gave Ned Flanders a chance... > Oh, here we go again. Look, I don't care if Ned Flanders is the nicest guy in the world. > He's a jerk. End of story.

Marge gestures with her free hand and speaks, then Homer Simpson, bald and stubbled in a white shirt, leans in beside her and bends toward the high chair. Marge then turns her gaze aside with a worried, sidelong look as Homer stays close, and the kitchen shows canisters with rooster designs, a framed picture on the wall, and a magnet-covered refrigerator. On-screen text reads 'Written By Jon Vitti' and 'Directed By Jim Reardon' in white letters over the lower part of the early frames. > we can't hold it against them just because he has things a little better than we do. > Excuse me? > Better? Thanks a lot, Marge. You really put me in my plate. > Oh, Homer. Don't get me wrong.

Maggie, the baby with a blue bow, sits behind them sucking a pacifier, and in the later images Homer leans in close to Marge, who looks sidelong and unimpressed, then Marge turns to face Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair and a red dress, who sits at the counter with a paper reading "The Simpsons" in front of her. Pink mugs sit on the counter, and a corkboard of rooster-themed pictures and canisters decorates the wall behind them. > It's worth feeling three inches tall to find out what kind of a person you really are. > Marge Simpson, president of the International We Love Flanders fan club.

Patties sizzle on the grill, and Bart's spiky-haired head peeks in at the lower right as the group smiles and Marge moves closer. Behind them stand a wooden fence, green trees and a brown house, and in the wide opening view a boy with a bat and a ball sits on the lawn. > Fi-fi-fo-fum. I smell the potatoes au gratin of Marge Simpson. > Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm. Hi, Ned.

Patties sizzle on the grill and Marge's expression shifts as she speaks to Ned, then the scene cuts to Homer lying on the brown living room sofa in a blue shirt and pants, one hand on his chest, gazing at a television. A telephone sits on a small table beside the sofa beneath a sailboat painting and a lamp. > Homer sends his apologies, > but there was some important work at the plant that only he could take care of. > We now return you to exciting 15th round action at the Canadian Football League draft.

McClure talks and gestures with his hands clasped on the desk while the other man listens with a faint smile, and a paper sits on the desk in front of them. The sequence opens on a green title card with a brown football bearing a red maple leaf and the words CFL DRAFT, then cuts to the two men at the desk. > And so the Saskatchewan Rough Riders who scored only four rouges all last season, Jack...

Over the clip he keeps munching, then raises a hand to his face and tilts his head back, while Santa's Little Helper, the brown greyhound, lies on the rug near the white TV, first in view and then mostly at the bottom edge of the frame. Notable objects include a framed sailboat painting on the pink wall, a purple lamp and teal telephone on a side table, and an orange floor lamp. > Stupid Flanders, go ahead, Mars, have a ball. > What if they came back and I was dead from not eating? > and cry there, I don't.

He first holds a small object near his face, then flings one arm up and opens his mouth in a wide laugh while Santa's Little Helper, the brown greyhound, appears at the bottom edge of the frame. He then lifts his bare feet into the air and keeps laughing, rocking back and forth on the cushions. > Oh, why didn't we go to the Flanders house and leave Homer all alone with no food? > And I'd be laughing, laughing for my grave. > Ha, ha, ha.

The dog then sits up with wide eyes and turns to sniff the smoke, with a red lamp and a wall picture in the pink living room behind them. > What is it, boy?

He opens his eyes wide again, sniffing and gaping, and then leans out of a window with a beige curtain, shouting with his mouth wide open while wavy streaks of air blow past him. > What? > Mmm. > Barbecue.

He gestures with one hand as he talks, and then Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants, appears through an arched orange door with a round window. Homer, Marge in her pink dress and blue beehive, Grampa in a brown sweater, and a dark-haired man in a blue sweater gather at the table, which holds a tall stack of burgers, a mustard bottle, and a bowl of food, and Homer raises a burger. > Oh. Hey, everyone, I'm back. > Nice to meet you.

Homer carries a plate of burgers and a tray of orange soda cans, then eats a burger as he walks toward the tree. Bart, in an orange shirt, stands at the right and faces a blond woman in a blue dress and a blond boy in a blue jacket and red shoes, while a brick house and picnic table with people sit in the background. > Homer. > Okay, thanks for coming. > You're it. > Electricity. No electricity. Electricity only in freeze tags. > Okay, now you're it. Hey, no tag backs! Yay, cheater.

In the first frames he scowls and shouts, then Bart, in an orange shirt, and a blonde-haired woman with a tall hairdo and blue top stand in the foreground, the woman jabbing a finger and yelling while Homer glances at them. Homer then slides back behind the trunk, rolling his eyes, before grinning and finally laughing with eyes shut against the tree, tilting his head back. > You lie like a fly with a booger in its eye. > The fly was funny, and the booger was the icing on the cake.

Ned speaks while gesturing, waving with one hand, raising an index finger, opening his arm toward the guests, and finally lifting a hand to his mouth as the guests look on. Red chairs and a wooden fence stand behind him in the backyard setting. > Friends, we love you all. > But I also have a sinister motive for asking you all here. > Sinister being Latin for left-handed. > But enough joking. That was a joke? Shh!

Ned Flanders, in his green sweater, moustache and glasses, stands by a wooden fence and holds up a looped blue cord. The scene then shifts to a red-hot glowing box where a tangled pink cord lies, with orange lawn chairs and a potted shrub nearby. > As of Friday, I'm saying toodaloo to the pharmaceutical game. > Leaving? I can't believe it. What is he talking about? > No, I kid you not. Here's the noose I had to wear for 10 years.

The table holds a roast turkey, bread rolls, white cups, a bowl of food and a red bottle. The scene then shifts to a couch, where the orange-haired woman in a blue top looks off to the side beside the man with glasses and a woman with a tall blue beehive in a pink blouse, all sitting still and watching. > What are you gonna do, Ned? Well, sir, like one out of every nine Americans, > I'm left-handed. > And let me tell you, it ain't all peaches and cream. > Your writing gets smeared.

He spreads his arms wide, then sits with the turkey before him and gestures with his hand near his head as the woman and man smile and talk. In the last shot two curly red-haired children sit at the left of the table and smile as Ned keeps gesturing, and no on-screen text is visible. > Lord help you if you want to drive a standard transmission. > Amen to that.

Homer lifts a sandwich while Ned gestures with an open hand beside a red tablecloth scattered with Duff cans, cups and plates, with two figures on a distant lawn. Homer then turns toward Ned beside a wooden fence, looking surprised as he speaks. > So, Homer, I'm dying to know. > What do you think of the Leftorium? Uh, it sounds like a pretty dumb idea to me.

Ned spreads his hands, then raises a finger while Homer listens with his head turned away. The scene then shifts to Homer alone in a backyard, eyes wide and mouth open, gesturing in front of a tall wooden fence with a red-roofed house behind it. > Oh, well, I know it's a little risky and it's gonna be a lot of hard work, > but gosh darn it, it's gonna be a lot of fun, too. > Fun?

Ned holds up a forked wishbone and talks, and the woman reaches toward it as Homer looks on with a worried expression. Homer then folds his arms and frowns while Ned keeps the wishbone in his hand, with plates of food on a table in the foreground. > Oh, no, the Springfield Mall. Oh, here, you two, make a wish. > Nah. It's fun. No, it isn't. Hey, you must have something you want to wish for, Homer. > Hmm, let's see.

The headline changes to "PRESIDENT SIMPSON DECLARES WORLD PEACE" over a crowded photo of a figure in a suit and top hat surrounded by a throng, and then to "PRESIDENT SIMPSON WINS SUPER BOWL" over a stadium photo of the same top-hatted figure with arms spread. Homer, mouth open, points at the final newspaper while the text stays visible. > Nah. > Mmm. > Hey. > Come on, Homer. I got an ambition to do some wishing.

Homer, bald in a white shirt, stands at the right, glaring and then shouting while Ned and the woman look on. Homer then turns to look at the sky as a cloud-like thought bubble appears above a faded Ned, who holds his arms out and stands in grey trousers. Then the bubble shows Ned alone, wearing his green sweater and grey trousers, arms outstretched, while Homer stares up at it from the bottom left beside the tree. > Keep your pants on, Flanders. I'm wishing as fast as I can. > Ooh.

The bubble then changes to an open grave with a grey headstone reading R.I.P. NED FLANDERS, which fades into the shop image, and in the last frame Homer frowns with eyes closed beside a man with brown hair holding glasses and a woman with curly orange hair in a pink top, with the shop scene faded at the right. > Eh, > too far. > Mmm. > Okay, ready.

They take turns pulling on a wishbone, which Homer grips and raises near his head while Ned looks on wide-eyed. Plates of food, a Dr Pepper can, and cups sit on the table, and the woman later holds the wishbone at Ned's nose as the three of them lean together. > Yes! Oh, yes! Read it and weep in your face! > I've got more chicken bones! What'd you wish for, Homer? > No, no, no, don't say. Otherwise, it won't come true.

Homer leans in and opens his mouth wide to show a mass of chewed brown food, and the woman raises a hand to her face and leans back as Ned glances away. The brown food and crumbs are visible throughout, and the scene ends with Homer's open mouth looming close to the pair. > Ooh, that would be a shame. > What did the plan take?

Bart holds a small white object in one hand and, in the later frames, raises it toward his mouth while glancing up at Marge's towering figure in her green dress and red bead necklace. Marge keeps her mouth open as if speaking, and Bart's grin and wide eyes shift as he gazes up at her. > Six, seven if there's something good on. > Hmm.

Homer, in a white shirt and purple pants and holding a can, hurries in from the right, grabs Bart, and then sits down on the couch with Bart on his lap as Marge looks on. A sailboat painting hangs on the pink wall, and an orange lamp stands beside the couch. > Don't you think you should get a little fresh air and maybe some exercise? > Yeah, but what are you gonna do?

Marge gestures and shouts while Bart and Homer look on, then she stands with her hands clasped as they stare up at her. Finally the family sits on the couch facing a TV showing the words "Itchy & Scratchy Will Return" while Marge gestures toward the set and Homer and Bart watch. > Even as we speak, > millions of children are staring at the TV instead of getting some much-needed exercise. > Those children's parents should be ashamed of themselves.

He smirks, winks, and gestures with one hand, then is shown lying on a purple floor with his head on a block while a man in a white gi raises a wooden mallet above a white slab resting on his belly. The scene ends with two men in white gis, one with glasses and one with black hair, striking the slab with mallets as Akira lies between two grey bricks. > Hello. > I am Akira. > That didn't hurt very much, because I know the ancient art of karate. > Karate focuses the mind and gives one self-confidence. > People from all walks of life.

The man speaks with his mouth open, then the woman with curly hair glances to the side, and the woman in the purple jacket, holding a blue tube, speaks and then grins while raising the tube. The bald man with the goatee looks upward at the end, and the counter and tube are the main objects on screen. > Doctors. Hi-ya!

Homer sips from a red soda can while the three watch a television, then Marge turns to face Homer and speaks as Bart looks up at them. On the TV, a wigged man in an old-fashioned coat holds two wooden boards, with the on-screen text 'WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY SALE!!' and later '$10 a lesson'. > I cannot tell a lie. > This is a great deal. > Hey, Mom, how about if I learn karate?

The scene moves to outside the Springfield Martial Arts Academy, where a karate fighter in white kicks in mid-air and another lies on a blue mat in front of hanging red punching bags. Bart in his orange shirt stands on the sidewalk beside Homer in a white shirt and blue pants, who then steps toward the glass doorway and gestures inside toward a room with pink hanging scrolls bearing Japanese characters. > See, Mart, you knocked TV and then it helped you out. > I think you owe somebody a little apology.

Inside, Ned Flanders, with a moustache, glasses and a green sweater, stands behind the counter beside shelves of mugs and shirts, including a 'I'M WITH LEFTY' tee and a 'CUPS-A-PLENTY' display. Homer approaches the counter and hands Ned a card or bill, and they exchange words as Ned gestures with his hand. In the background, a woman with tall orange hair in a green coat handles mugs near a 'LEFT is RIGHT' sign, while Ned glances over at her. > Well, if it isn't a leftorium. > Hey, Flanders. > How's business? > Oh, a little pokey, but things are gonna pick up. > Oh, I am so sorry. > How much do I owe you?

Beside him, a woman with tall orange hair, a teal pillbox hat and a teal coat with white fur trim stands at the register, first looking off to the side and then frowning as she holds up a pink slip. Homer, bald and wearing a white shirt, appears at the right in front of a rack with a 'KISS ME I'M LEFT-HANDED' shirt and a hanging sign reading 'SALE ALL LEFTY SHIRTS', as he turns his head and glances sideways. Notable objects include a cash register, a rotating card display, bins of cards and a stack of colored boxes on the shelves. > That was an accident. Really? > Well, thanks. > Could you validate my parking? > Absolutely, positively. > So, Flanders, have you sold anything?

An instructor in a white gi with a black belt holds up a red book, The Art of War by Sun Tzu, and walks along the row of blue mats, sometimes raising it above the boys' heads. Bart gestures with his hand as he talks, and by the end the instructor's large hand comes down over the row as all the boys sit holding their copies of the book. > And this is our map, The Art of War by Sun Tzu. > It will teach us our most important lesson.

Bart, in a white gi, sits among them and looks up and talks while the instructor gestures with a raised finger, then turns and walks toward the right. A smaller student in a white gi stands in the background by the window as the instructor moves across the room, and the children stay seated, reading and watching him. > We learn karate so that we need never use it. > Um, excuse me, sir.

As the scene goes on, a curly-haired boy in a gi looks on and the instructor keeps his hands folded and smirks, and Bart turns to face them with his hands out. Later, a scowling Bart, in a brown jacket, gestures beside a bonsai tree in a blue pot near purple-framed windows and a hanging banner with Japanese characters reading ネオ東京を. > When do we break blocks of ice with our heads? > First you must fill your head with wisdom. > Then you can hit ice with it. Yo, sensei, can I go to the bathroom? > You can if you believe you can. > Paying money to read books. > Pfft. The hell with this.

Inside the pink dining room, Homer sits at the table with Bart, Lisa and Marge, who sits at the right end, while Homer grins and turns toward the others. Homer then glares sideways with his teeth clenched, and next he opens his mouth wide, raising a fork in his right hand. Lisa, mouth open and eyebrows raised, sits at the small table beside Marge, who holds a fork over her plate with a pink food item on it.

Beside him, Lisa Simpson, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair and a pearl necklace, sits near a red chair and a shelf holding a white bowl; she looks sideways with a wide-eyed, open-mouthed expression, then narrows her eyes and grimaces with clenched teeth. > Please tell me because I'm dying to know. > It's a German term for shameful joy, taking pleasure in the suffering of others.

Homer talks animatedly, gesturing with his hands and then leaning back with a pensive, scowling expression, while Bart glances up at him and Lisa looks on with a sideways, unimpressed stare. A red lamp sits on the shelf at the upper right, and the pink dining room wall stands behind them. > Oh, come on, Lisa.

Lisa glances sideways with a sour, skeptical look and her pearl necklace shows, and Bart stares ahead blankly. Homer, bald and heavy in a white shirt, sits across the table on the left with his mouth open in an exaggerated, indignant expression, holding a fork with a bit of food on it. Bart then turns his head toward Homer and smirks while Homer keeps talking. A red vase of flowers sits on the sideboard behind Bart, and a framed still-life painting hangs on the pink wall above the table. > Sour grapes. > Boy, those Germans have a word for everything. > So, Bart, what did you learn in karate school today? > Yeah, come on, boy.

Bart lies on a brown couch in a pink living room, propped on his elbow, while Lisa in a pearl necklace sits at the end of the couch and watches him, then Bart lifts his hand to his mouth and opens it wide. A purple lamp and a small blue telephone sit on the side table beside the couch. > I don't know. > Well, sir, we're still gonna try to get this... > Hey, Elise, change the channel. You change it.

Bart rests his head on his hands, then closes his eyes, then sits up and gestures with a raised thumb while speaking, and Lisa watches with a flat, unimpressed expression. In the final moment, a shot of a tall red apple fills the foreground, with a wide-eyed face peeking from behind it. The apple sits on a light blue counter in a dark, black-bordered setting, and a purple lampshade is visible in the background of the living room. > Okay, okay. > I grow weary of this new channel. Change it back. > But Bart... > Apple, apple, apple.

Behind the glass a red apple appears, and Homer glares at it through the window, then ducks back out of view. He then leans in from the side of the window, mouth open and glowering, while the apple sits in the foreground. Next to the machine is a red COLD DRINKS vending unit with a yellow BUZZZ logo, and on a brown wooden double door nearby hangs a blue box labeled OWNER C.M. BURNS, with Homer walking past on the right. > Come on, candy bar. Hey, we know you. > You're that first apple I didn't want. > That thinks it. I'm really gonna let him have it this time.

Burns'. Homer holds a blue box at the door, then Smithers faces him and jabs a finger toward Homer's chest as they confront each other. Earlier, a yellow hand writes 'NO MORE APPLES IN THE VENDING MACHINE PLEASE' on a paper beneath a 'SUGGESTION BOX' sign. > No more apples in the vending machine, please. > Simpson, put that box on Mr. Burns' desk. > Chop, chop.

Homer stands in the background holding a blue box, and a can of cat food and a can opener sit on the table in front of Burns, who gestures with one hand as he talks. The scene ends with a close-up of Homer, wide-eyed and worried, in his white shirt and pink striped tie. > Oh, look, Smithies. Another member of our nuclear family with some helpful suggestions. > And what's your name? Homer Simpson, sir.

He leans toward a blue box with a handle beside a window, then pushes paper into its top, where shredded strips spill out, while the cat remains in his lap. He then grins and reads a sheet of paper, turns his eyes sideways, and rests a finger against his chin as the paper stays in his hand, with a grey cylinder visible outside the window. > Simpson, eh? Mm-hmm. I'm Monty Burns. > Keep that handsome owner out of sight. He's distracting the female employees. > Smithers.

In the wider view, a small Burns figure sits at a purple table near a tall arched window with rain outside, while a bald, heavy figure stands in front of the table and a clown-like figure sits on the floor at the right. A tall painting of Burns hangs on the right wall beside a red crest with a skull emblem, and a red chair sits near the window. > Got me, sir. > Oh, it's a real one. > No more apples in the vending machine, please. > Well, that's almost a sentence. > Can I leave, Mr. Burns? Oh, of course, and don't worry. > There'll be plenty of apples for you.

Smithers, the thin assistant with glasses and a purple bow tie wearing a green jacket and a name badge, stands at the right beside Homer, who stays in the middle of the red-carpeted office with a door behind them. Burns leans forward, first gripping Homer's shoulder and then wagging a hand in explanation, while Homer's eyes widen and his mouth opens in protest. Burns then turns his head away, eyes narrowed and mouth open in a scowl, as he looks toward a window with a grey cylindrical object in view. > Nobody will take away your precious apples. > But the note was asking you to... No, no, no. > Tell my secretary I said you could have a free apple. > She'll make everything all right, I promise.

Smithers, in a green sweater and purple bow tie, stands beside him watching, while Homer in a white shirt walks away through the arched wooden door at the back. Rain streaks the large windows behind them as Burns keeps working the opener and then grins with his eyes shut. > Damned infernal gizmo. > My kingdom for a left-handed can opener!

Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped, thin old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, wearing a green suit, is shown in a framed picture on the wall, leaning over a box with a coin on top. Homer then sits in a car with his eyes closed and a smile, a jar on a small table visible through the window. > Uh, Mr. Burns? > Come on, Homer. Tell him about the store. > I'm dying out here. Sorry, Flanders. > Huh?

In front of a yellow house with a purple door and a purple couch, a yard sale table holds lamps and boxes, and a sign reading YARD SALE stands on the lawn. At the right edge, Homer sits in a pink car, and the orange-haired man turns away with his hands at his sides while Ned gestures toward him. > Are you sure you're not interested? > $200 is only the asking price. > Sorry, Ned. > Hey, I'm flexible.

Behind him Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants with his hands in his pockets, watches with a wary, skeptical expression and at one point gestures toward the side. The lavish pink hutch, purple armchairs and a wooden coffee table with a lamp and red cup sit in the room, and near the end Homer stands on the right while a thinner man in a green sweater, Flanders, is seen across the room near the window and purple front door. The two men shift positions as the exchange plays out, with Flanders moving from the front of the room toward the window and Homer staying still by the armchair. > You don't have to pay all at once. > I'll be here all night if you change your mind. > Hey, Flanders, is everything okay? Oh, yeah, sure. > Thought I'd just get rid of some of the clutter. > See anything you like? Oh, I get it.

In the final part he stands in a living room beside a black gas grill on a small table, while Ned Flanders, the moustached man in glasses and a green sweater, leans over the grill and gestures toward it as Homer, at right, rubs his hands and looks on. Purple shutters, a striped red-and-white stack of cushions, and the black grill are the notable objects on screen. > but it's good enough for me. Well, I wouldn't be caught dead buying this. > Hello. > Ha ha, got your eye on the gas grill, huh? > She's a butane butte. I'll give you 20 bucks for it.

Homer leans in toward a dark grey object on the right, touching it with one hand, while Ned puffs a cloud of smoke and gestures with his open hand. Ned then holds up a green bill marked 20 next to Homer's head, and Homer turns to look at it with his mouth open. A small hooked white tuft of hair sits on Homer's head, and the sky is blue. > 20? > Homer, I paid $300 for this just last year. > You had swindled, my friend. 20 bucks, take it or leave it. > Oh, Homer, be reasonable. > Sorry, no cash for Nettie.

Homer first grins and shows the money, then turns toward Ned, who looks on with a stern expression, and the money is held up to the hedge. Ned turns his attention to a brown wooden box with a lid propped open beside him, and in the final frame Homer turns to the side with his mouth open, talking, while the lid remains raised and the house and trees stay in the background. > Homer, keep on money. Bye-bye, Nettie, bye-bye. > All right, Homer. $20? > $20. > No, I don't want it. What? I changed my mind.

Homer then looks sideways with a smirk, and the scene switches to a sunny backyard-facing room where Homer, in a chef's cap and blue apron, works at a grill while Bart lies on a purple couch. A green-and-white parasol sits on the orange floor, and a green toy vehicle is parked at the bottom edge. > It was a passing fancy. Although, perhaps if you threw in a few lawn chairs, > maybe that tool bench, it might rekindle my interest. > Hey, Bartley-Bootley, care for a steak-a-rooney?

A magnifying glass circle then zooms in on the purple couch and strands of hair, before Marge with her blue beehive and Lisa in a green dress peer around a doorway, Marge pointing at her chin while Lisa frowns. > Sounds scrumptly umptious, dear old Dudley-Doodley. > Hey, Dudley-Doodley. > Homer, this is the Flanders' entire living room set.

In a doorway, Homer glances sideways with a sly grin and then speaks with his teeth showing while Marge clutches her neck, grimaces, and turns wide-eyed. The scene then shifts to a living room where Lisa in her red dress and pearls stands by a pink cabinet, mouth open, as Bart slouches on a purple couch holding a blue ball. > How much did you pay for this? Only 75 beans. > 75 dollars? > Ned must be desperate. > I'm sure you did nothing to discourage this, you scavenger of human misery.

Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt and blue jeans, is then seen standing beside the brown sofa, first with his hands at his sides and then crouching into a squat with his arms out. The room has pink walls, a framed sailboat picture, a purple lamp, and a shelf of books, and the scene plays as a short sequence of Homer shifting from standing still to bending his knees. > Hey, keep your hands off my china hutch. > for entertainment and exercise.

The suited man squints, frowns and speaks while Homer looks at him, then he grits his teeth with a stern glare. Inside the doorway, Homer throws his head back and yells with his mouth wide open while reaching toward the man's face, beside a framed family portrait and a pink wall. > Good afternoon, sir.

The suited man glares and grimaces at Homer, who first scowls angrily and then turns puzzled and uneasy as the two stand face to face at the door. > Does it make you feel good about yourself to owe people money? > We've been very patient with you, Mr. Flanders. > I know, but... Wait a minute. I'm Homer Simpson. > Ned Flanders lives over there. > Oh. > Flanders isn't dead. > Are you sure?

The man, who resembles Herb's suited look but is a one-off character, has a flat, thin face with a grimace, and he reads from or scribbles on the notepad while Homer listens with wide eyes. Over the moments the man's expression shifts from a frown to a grin as he speaks, then back to a stern look, while Homer turns his head and gestures with one hand, his mouth opening to speak. Outside, a suburban street shows a tree, a wooden fence, and a red-roofed house, and a light switch is visible on the wall beside the door. > We don't make mistakes. > Damn right-handed ledges.

Lisa plays her saxophone on a grassy hill beside a path where a lunchbox sits, with a basketball hoop and a group of kids behind her; then a bald, heavy man in a white shirt and blue shorts, a woman with a reddish-brown bob and olive top, and a long-haired person in a purple beanie and black skull shirt gather around her, leaning in to inspect the saxophone as she keeps playing. > Oh. > Check out the saxophone.

The scene then shifts to Homer alone outside at night beside a blue fence, staring with a wide-eyed, anxious expression. > Not since that nice fella from the bank who was only doing his job came and locked it up. > You're gonna live in your car? Oh, no. It's just a little camp out tonight.

Ned's hands shift from open palms spread outward to one hand tucked near his chest, while Homer looks on with a worried, wide-eyed expression. Behind the car window, a red-haired figure sits inside the vehicle with a pink pillow-like shape nearby. The scene stays at the same spot as Ned keeps talking and Homer keeps listening. > Then off to my sister's apartment in Capitol City.

On the right, a small boy with curly reddish-brown hair in a red sweater and an older man with curly brown hair and a moustache look on with smiles, and the city buildings show through the window behind them. Over the five frames Ned's mouth opens mid-speech, closes, and he settles into a grin while Homer stays still with his hands in his pockets. > Hey, what do you think, kids? The big city! > Yay! > Say, Todd, I want to talk to your Uncle Homer.

The moustached man then gestures as the girl waves a hand, and Homer and a brown-haired man in a red sweater turn away from the window toward the street. Finally the two men walk off together past a shop with a sign on its door, while the wide-eyed girl and a red-haired woman remain at the bus window. > You're head of the car till I get back. Okay, Dad. > Race guys are gonna clear up! Put on a happy face. > Brush off the clouds and cheer up.

A green station wagon is parked at the curb on the left, and a dark round shape sits near the front steps. As they move, they pass the porch and the hedges, and Homer appears to carry a cardboard box or tray while the man in red looks ahead, with a pale fence behind them. > Put on a happy face. Ah, listen to that singing. > Those poor fools. > Homer, I'm ruined. I know.

Ned, with brown hair, a moustache and glasses, stares wide-eyed while Homer, in a green sweater over a white shirt, looks on with a flat, strained expression. Ned's position shifts from the left to the right of the frame, and Homer moves behind him, with Ned's mouth ending open in a dismayed look. > You know, at times like these, I used to turn to the Bible and find solace, > but even the good book can't help me now. > Why not? > I sold it to you for seven cents. Oh.

Ned gestures with open hands, then raises his hands to his mouth while he speaks, and in the final moment Homer, now shown in front, holds a white cloth with a small embroidered emblem up to his face with his eyes closed. Houses with lit windows, a hedge and a blue picket fence line the street. > You know, ever since that barbecue, nothing's gone, right? > It's like there's been a curse on me. > It's all my fault. > No, it's not. Yes, it is. No, you tried to warn me about gambling, my family's future.

He stands beside a bespectacled, moustached man in a red sweater who is holding a box on a small cart near the blue front door, and the two of them look down at it together. They then embrace and walk away from the cart toward the house, with a crumpled paper lying on the ground, and a notice is taped to the door. > That's a big enough poke. > I didn't listen. Homer, you were a true friend. > No, I was just blind.

Ned, in a red sweater, hugs Homer from behind while Homer, in a green jacket over a white shirt, turns toward him with wide eyes and an open mouth. Ned then stands alone against the blue siding of a house, glancing sideways with his moustache set and his mouth moving and tightening. > Listen, Flannery, do you still have that store? > For two more days. > It becomes Libertarian Party Headquarters. > I hope they have better luck than I did.

Homer glares and jabs his finger toward Ned, then opens his mouth to speak, and later grits his teeth while still pointing. Ned leans back with wide eyes and then spreads his hands in a helpless gesture, and finally he is seen alone at the right, staring off to the side. No on-screen text is visible. > Landers, you open that store tomorrow. Oh! > Homer, there's no point. I said do it!

Homer begins by pointing with his free arm while holding a small brown object, then pulls a coiled-cord phone receiver to his ear, scowling and shouting into it as he shifts his stance and turns partly away from the wall. Marge watches wide-eyed from behind him as the phone cord stretches across the scene. > Hello, Jerry. Homer Simpson. Remember last month when I paid back that loan? > Well, now I need you to do a favor for me.

The scene then shifts to a heavy man with messy brown hair, likely Barney, in a white tank top, who grimaces while gripping a blue telephone receiver, then slumps back onto a green table under a wall clock and a vertical Pizza sign, feet up and the receiver pressed to his head. A white takeout carton and a small blue box sit on the counter near a sink. > A left-handed corkscrew? > Oh, baby. > Kiss me, I'm left-handed? > That's a classic.

Mr. Burns, frail and stooped with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, sits in a red chair in a library lined with bookshelves, hunched over a small handheld device, with Smithers standing behind him. Smithers, in a green jacket and purple bow tie, then holds a blue box and a white cat in a pink collar sits near Burns, and he next holds an open can over a purple bowl. > Homer Simpson's on the phone. Tell him I went out. > He needs you to help Ned Flanders. > Ned Flanders is in trouble? > Smithers, I'm licked. > You open this can. Okay, but you soften it up for me, sir. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S03E03/1182014.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s03e03-when-flanders-failed/1187228 ## 19:53–20:04 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands at a bookshelf-lined office beside a blue shredder, reading a paper in his hand, then leans toward the machine while Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses and a purple bow tie, stands behind him in a green jacket with an ID badge. Burns then reaches out and points at the shredder while Smithers rests a hand on his shoulder. The scene cuts to a mall lobby with glass doors, potted plants and an escalator, where a man with a moustache and a green sweater over a red jacket leans on the escalator railing, while a girl with long brown hair in a teal dress stands at the left by a shop entrance. > Hold it, Smithers. > I'll open the can. But, sir, how? To the mall. > I'll explain on the way.

Beside the escalator stands a woman with a frizzy orange hairdo, black jacket and pearl necklace, leaning on the railing and looking up at him. The escalator climbs past a store sign reading 'Simply Sho...' and a yellow sign with a thumbs-up and 'EVERYTHING FOR THE LEF...' lettering, with 'HUT' visible on a pink storefront, and green plants lining the upper floor. > Hurry, Nettie, hurry. > Oh, golly, it's a miracle. > Come on, you lefties. Oh, what did I tell you? > It's all here and it's all backwards.

Inside a shop, Apu in a green shirt holds a white box as a moustached man in a karate-style white gi, a man in a blue suit, and a bald man with a white beard crowd around, with a 'SALE' sign on the wall. In the last moment, a woman in a black dress with pearls points at a cash register while Mr. Burns, a thin, hook-nosed old man, and a bow-tied assistant with glasses lean in beside a receipt and a counter-top register. > That's right.

Beside him at left, Smithers, the thin assistant with glasses and a purple bow tie, looks on with a slight smile. Behind them a poster reading 'LEFTY' and a partial sign reading 'EVER' hang on the pink wall of a cramped room. Across the moment Burns gestures and tilts his head, and his expression shifts from scowling to a sly, tight-lipped look as he continues to hold the tin. > Wow, the worm has turned, is it not, my tin-plated friend? > Look at you. You were once so proud of me.

Burns' expression turns sly and smug as he keeps the case lifted in front of him. The scene then cuts to Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a bow tie and dark apron, behind a wooden bar under a 'CHARCOAL' box and a row of bottles. He first grips a red-handled paddle and shouts with his mouth wide open, then lowers it and holds out a red bottle with a blue label, grinning, while patrons, including a woman with orange hair in a green sweater and a man in a dark jacket, look on. > Feel the wrath of the left hand burns. > My life begins today.

Nearby, a thin man with brown hair and a long nose gestures at a shelf of ledgers and left-handed scissors, then a martial-arts man in a white gi with a black belt stands beside posters reading "You're Lefty!" and "I Love Lefties" while swinging a stick. Ned Flanders, with his moustache and green sweater, stands at a cash register showing 34.99 as a curly-haired redheaded woman grins and leans against him. > Wow, what an icebreaker. > Left-handed ledges. > Now I can ride all the way to the edge. Ah-ha-ha, left-handed thunchucks.

Burns takes out a small card or wallet and then points at the counter while Ned Flanders' moustached double looks on. The scene then moves to a showroom where a crowd gathers around a red roadster on a display platform under a sign reading "LEFT HANDED GEAR SHIFT / ONLY 3 EVER MADE," and a large man in a cream hat with a blue band stands in the foreground. The moment ends back at the counter, with Burns grinning and holding money as Smithers and the red-sweatered man lean in, under a wall sign reading "KISS ME I'M LEFT HANDED." > The boys at the diners club will think I've gone quite mad. > Oh, and I'll have that roadster in the corner as well. > Yes, sir. Huzzah for the shopkeep! Huzzah!

Opening on a woman with orange hair pressing her hands to her mouth in a shop with shelves and a box reading 'I ♥ LEFTY APRON', the scene moves to the bar, where Homer and Ned then raise glasses of red drink in a toast as the crowd lifts theirs, and a man holds a sign reading 'KISS ME I'M LEFT-HANDED'. > Homer, affordable tract housing made us neighbors, but you made us friends. > To Ned Flanders, the richest left-handed man in town.

Marge with her tall blue beehive, holding baby Maggie, stands with Lisa and Bart at a store counter, with a woman in a black glove at the left edge, and the scene shifts back to the shop where the curly-haired girl keeps strumming and singing while the moustached man and woman watch, and a blue container labeled "GIVE" sits on the counter. > Everybody! > Race guys are gonna clear up! > Stick out that noble chin, > wipe off that full-up-down look, slap on a happy grin, > And spread sunshine all over the place Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S03E03/1277109.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s03e03-when-flanders-failed/1281697 ## 21:27–21:37 Homer, with his bald head, stubble and white shirt, sings in a crowded bar alongside Marge with her tall blue beehive, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and Ned Flanders with his moustache and green sweater. Chief Wiggum in his police cap squeezes an accordion, Lisa strums a small guitar, and the group clutches red drinks while the pink-walled room behind them shows a SALE sign. As the song goes on, the whole group keeps singing with mouths wide open, and two curly red-haired women and a pale grinning man in a blue suit crowd in at the sides. > Just put on a happy face Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S03E03/1288579.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s03e03-when-flanders-failed/1292333 ## 21:37–21:47 Marge with her tall blue beehive, Homer, Maggie with a pacifier and blue bow, Bart, Lisa, Ned Flanders with his moustache and glasses in a green sweater, and two curly-haired women with orange-red hair crowd together in a pink-walled room with a framed sign reading 'The Pit...' behind them.
