He turns from the board, chalk in hand, then hops sideways in a bouncy, grinning dance with his arms outstretched, while the frame shows the chalk lines and the classroom behind him. Before this, the screen shows a blue sky with drifting clouds and the title "THE SIMPSONS" in yellow letters, followed by the black opening screen. > The Simpsons Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1043.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/6048 ## 0:12–0:23 Homer and Lisa first appear at a yellow house with a pink car in the driveway, then Homer stands beside the car as Lisa rides a red bike carrying a stack of books. Homer then stands in a purple room, reaching toward a wall panel, before the scene shifts to Bart, Marge, Lisa and Maggie in cowboy hats pushing a red trunk across a desert at sunset. The family rides the red trunk away past a saguaro cactus, with mountains and an orange sky behind them.

The screen then changes to 'Developed by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Sam Simon' and holds on that card before fading to black. The scene then cuts to an aerial view of the Springfield Mall, a large pink building with red letters reading 'SPRINGFIELD MALL' beside a blue building with 'Milestone's' partially visible, with cars driving along the streets and small figures walking on the sidewalks. A voice announces the Springfield Mall as the view settles on the outdoor lot and roads. > Ladies and gentlemen, the Springfield Mall, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/24399.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/29613 ## 0:35–0:40 Homer, a bald man in a white shirt, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive, stand among a dense crowd in a mall atrium, with a boy in a light blue shirt and a woman in a pink dress with blue beads at the left edge. Beneath a hanging gold banner reading "MEMORIES OF BONANZA THE MALL SHOW," the crowd faces a large map showing The Ponderosa, Virginia City, Carson City, Reno and Lake Tahoe, while spectators line the balcony railings above. Over the five frames the view gradually drifts upward toward the banner, the woman on the left pushes a blue stroller toward the bottom edge, and the balcony crowd remains in place. > in conjunction with Nostalgia Licensing Corporation, > is proud to present the Stars of Bonanza.

A glowing yellow fireball swells over the map until a fireman in a red helmet and overalls sprays a hose that puts out the flames and burns a ragged hole through the backdrop, and two feathered, fringed performers run through the opening into view. Captions along the bottom read 'Co-Executive Producer GEORGE MEYER', 'MIKE SCULLY', 'STEVE TOMPKINS' and 'Supervising Producer JONATHAN COLLIER'. > Thank you.

The thinner man on the left holds a microphone, lifts it toward his mouth and gestures with his hand as he speaks, while the man on the right stands still holding a microphone at his chest. Over the scene, rotating credit captions appear in turn: Supervising Producer Ken Keeler, Producer David S. Cohen, Producer Richard Appel, and Consulting Producer Ian Maxtone-Graham. > I just wish Ben and Hoss and Little Joe and Hop Singh and Sheriff Roy and all your > favorites could be alive today to see this wonderful turnout. > You know, on the series, we were always trying to kill the Cartwrights.

The white credit captions change in turn from "Consulting Producer DAVID MIRKIN" to "Consultant JOHN SWARTZWELDER" to "Co-Producer COLIN A.B.V. LEWIS" to "Produced by J. MICHAEL MENDEL", while the performers and the spectators packed into the aisles and balconies stay in place. > But it looks like Father Time took care of that for us, right? > Am I right, folks?

The performers take turns holding microphones, gesturing and grinning while the crowd looks on, and one of them later hooks a thumb in his apron as the other speaks. Overlaid credits read "Produced by Richard Raynis", then "David Silverman", then "Richard Sakai" and "Denise Sirkot". > Oh, this sucks. > Weren't there three Indians last year?

Buzzbaum's 5600 Flavors Ice Cream shop and a 'One Size Fits All Lingerie' sign, with a Miscellaneous store and a Simply Shoes storefront behind them earlier on. Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants, walks up beside Marge in the first moments, then turns and gestures with open hands while speaking, grinning and then looking exasperated, as Marge stands with her arms wrapped around Maggie and Bart and Lisa look on. Homer gestures at Marge's arm while the group stays clustered near the shop front, with a 'Written by Jonathan Collier' and 'Directed by Mark Kirkland' credit superimposed across the middle of the scene. > Look, Marge, they opened a new high-tech gadget store. > You love high-tech gadgets. > No, I don't. Light pull you don't. Come on. > Oh, please, you're hurting my arm. > No, I'm not.

Bart holds up a silver gadget, pushes its tip up to his nose and grimaces with his eyes squeezed shut while Lisa watches with a flat, unimpressed look. The gadget then drops onto the counter, where a red-and-silver device lies in front of a grey-and-silver product box. > Hey, Lise, check out the space-age toothbrush. > That's an electric nostril groomer.

Marge first stands watching with a worried look while Maggie gazes ahead, then Maggie reaches toward the red device and Marge grimaces. In the later part of the moment, Marge turns to speak as she holds Maggie, and an open brown suede briefcase sits on the counter at the left edge of the scene. > Night vision goggles? > A bathroom scale from a Soviet sub? > A suede briefcase case?

Marge's face shifts from a grimace to a sidelong, unimpressed glance, and then Homer, bald and stubbled, leans in close to the briefcase from the right with wide eyes and an open mouth. Control panels, a small monitor and a red object line the wood-paneled wall behind them. > Anyone who needs this kind of status symbol must have some terrible emotional problems. > Marge, look! > The world's best jacket.

He turns, gestures with his hands, and reaches toward the jacket while speaking, then pumps his fists in front of him. Meanwhile, a heavy man in a blue t-shirt, pink shorts, and blue sneakers, with a goatee and messy hair, stands at the counter holding up a purple and red belt-like device, while a mustached man in a white shirt and green tie stands behind the counter. The counter displays gadgets, a cassette-style case, and a calculator-like device. > If I had this, it would show everybody. > Show everybody. > Yes, finally, I would like to return your quote-unquote ultimate belt. > I see. Do you have a receipt? Quote-unquote, sir?

The heavy man, first holding a silver-and-purple gadget with a red arrow and red button, talks and gestures with his free hand, then grins and rests a hand on his belly, and finally lifts the gadget up while the moustached man listens with his hands folded on the counter. Shelves above hold a small boxed item and a blue tool, and a red-and-white appliance stands at the upper right, with more electronics and a green-and-silver strap on the counter below. > No, I do not have a receipt. > I won it as a door prize at the Star Trek convention, > although I find their choice of prize highly illogical, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/135552.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/139306 ## 2:23–2:33 A heavy man in a blue shirt with long brown hair hanging from the sides of his bald head stands at a shop counter beside a thin, bald man with a thick moustache, white shirt, green tie and name tag. The heavy man scowls with his hands on his hips and then holds two small discs, while the clerk leans on the counter, clasps his hands in a pleading gesture, and then points a finger and grins. Shelves behind them hold a green-screened device and a red box, a mannequin wearing a red helmet and harness stands at the right, and the counter is strewn with a blue belt, a stack of tape reels and black gadgets. > as the average trekker has no use for a medium-sized belt. > Whoa, whoa, fat, sarcastic Star Trek fan. > You must be a devil with the ladies.

He glares with his eyes narrowed and his teeth bared, then his eyes droop shut as his mouth opens to speak. He then looks sideways with half-lidded eyes, and in the final moment his eyes are closed while his mouth hangs open. > Hey, I... > Oh, gee, I hate to let you down, Casanova, but no receipt, no return.

A mustached clerk in a white shirt and green tie stands behind the counter at first, and the heavy man glances down with closed eyes before looking back at Bart. Bart then holds out a few green bills and a folded purple garment over the counter while the heavy man, still holding the gadget, looks up at him, and shelves of electronics and a red-and-white robotic arm are visible in the background. > I'll give you four bucks for it.

Bart reaches toward the counter and hands over the money as the man takes it, and then the man, still holding the cash, steps back and looks down. Bart exits to the left, and the man turns and walks slowly away from the counter, one hand at his waist, past shelves of gadgets, a tape roll, and a calculator. > Very well, I must hurry back to my comic book store, > where I dispense the insults rather than absorb them. > Wow!

Close-up views of Bart's belt with a whistle, a pouch, a red-dot button, and a white panel marked HELP show him with his hands on his hips, then his face looks sideways with a doubtful expression before a hand opens a round compass held over the belt. > I bet if God wore pants, he'd have a belt like that. > This isn't a belt.

Bart puts his hands on his hips, gestures with his hands and grins, then turns and walks away past a purple wall and a door knob, glancing back over his shoulder as the belt's pink gadget shows on his back. > radon-slash-lie detector, sphygmomanometer, > and it's even got turn signals. > Wow! > Hey, Simpson, wanna trade belts?

The scene cuts to Bart, with spiky hair and an orange shirt, in a purple room beside a wall switch, first looking wide-eyed with his mouth open and then sheepish, lips pressed together and eyes glancing sideways. It returns to the three in the hallway, where the bald boy leans forward with a clenched grimace while the middle boy's mouth hangs open. > because yours is just a piece of extension cord. > Hey, dude, he's ragging on your cord. > Get him!

Bart then looks anxious and grimaces against a grey background with a blue triangular panel, before a glowing LEFT sign appears on a purple and blue disc. Finally, his midsection is shown in close-up, strapped into a purple band with red double-headed arrows and white padded pieces at the sides. > No running! > Time for a little evasive action. > Hey! > He's turning left!

Along the way, the woman grips Homer's arm and the group pauses near the sink, with Homer glancing back as they stop. Bart, in his orange shirt and blue shorts, stands by the lockers holding a handheld device at his waist, watching the group in the distance and then turning to look anxiously to the side. > Help!

A small flaming rocket shoots from his belt toward three onlookers: a girl with reddish-brown hair in a green shirt, a boy with a spiky purple-dyed hairdo and a skull shirt, and a bald, heavy boy in a white shirt and blue shorts. A parachute then opens from the gadget, with a sign below reading "CALL POLICE ASSISTANCE" while the three stare and Bart looks on nervously. > I was hoping it wouldn't come to this, but you guys asked for it.

Homer, bald and heavy in a white shirt, moves in from the left, and a tall figure in a purple knit hat and black shirt and a figure with reddish hair in a green sweater crowd in beside him near the lockers. The group presses together against the wall as the scene closes. > Can't you read Call the Police?

Bart leans against his father's knee, and Homer jerks upright with a startled, wide-eyed look before Bart steps back in front of the table. Behind them a corkboard reading "GOD BLESS THIS MESS" and a "PIZZA" sign hang on the wall, with a glass of orange juice and a pie on the table. > Hey, Dad. Looking good, son. > Hey, what happened to your belt? Some bullies beat me up and took it.

Homer points his finger at Bart while talking, his expression shifting from stern to scowling, and in the final moment he turns toward the pie and gestures with a fork while Bart looks up at him. Purple cabinets, a teal blender, and a pink wall rack are visible behind them. > Son, there's only one thing punks like that understand. > Squealing. > You've got to squeal to every teacher and every grown-up you can find. > Coming to me was a good start. But then they'll just beat me up even worse.

Homer, bald and heavy in a white shirt, stands in a purple kitchen lined with cabinets, a blender and canisters, first with his hand on his chin looking sidelong, then grimacing with clenched teeth and a hand at his jaw. He then grins widely with one finger raised toward his temple, and finally talks with mouth open while pointing a finger to the side with a broad, excited look. > Yes, they are a clever bunch. > I know. I'll squeal for you. To their parents.

The group then gathers on the blue tiled floor beside the cigarette vending machine and a Duff sign: a heavy, stubbled bald man in a white shirt and blue jeans steps forward with a cigar and jabs a finger, while Homer clasps his hands and looks on uneasily. A man in a purple beanie and a black skull shirt, and a red-haired man in a green vest with a cigarette, stand close by with stern expressions as the confrontation builds. > That's for telling me how to raise my lousy kid. > And this is for the crummy life I've had to live! > The thing is, Bart really loves that Belton. > Hey, something's wrong with this guy.

Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a bow tie, grabs a double-barreled shotgun from behind the counter and swings it toward the group as a red pool cue lies on the blue tiled floor. Signs reading "Duff!" and "Cigarettes" hang on the walls near a small TV and a cigarette machine. > Fun's over, fellas. > If you're gonna beat up my friend and my bod, it's a two-drink minimum.

Moe then gestures with his hands while talking to Homer, and later sits beside him holding a small white cloth and a bottle labeled GIN. Behind them the bar shelves hold glasses, bottles and a red-framed mirror. > Geez, Homer, I never seen a guy stand up to that kind of punishment. > I mean, you took a three-man pounding and didn't even fall down. > Big deal. I didn't even get my kid's belt back. > The only thing a loser like me is good for is taking beatings.

Moe dabs at Homer's head or hand with the rag, then leans in and talks to him while his expression changes from a stern look to an open-mouthed, animated speech. Bottles and glasses line the shelves behind them in the dim tavern. > There you go. That's the spirit. > Homer, I've seen prize fighters couldn't take a punch half as good as you. > You know, boxing might be right up your alley.

Moe talks and gestures with his hands while Homer listens, and in the final moment Homer stares ahead with a frowning, open-mouthed expression in front of a cabinet of bottles and a yellow sign.

Homer, bald with a white bandage on his head and wearing a white shirt, is beside him, and Moe rests a hand on Homer's shoulder while leaning in close. Moe then turns to gesture with a fist and a pointing hand, grinning and scowling, while Homer looks on wide-eyed and nervous before Moe's grin widens with his fist raised. A green sign reading 'Duff' hangs on the wall behind Homer, with bottles on shelves and a cash register at the bar. > Their choice. > You really think I could do it? > Well, I don't know.

The scene then cuts to black and to an exterior of Moe's, a purple building with a sign reading MOE'S, a purple door, and diamond-patterned windows under a night sky, with a bit of litter on the sidewalk. > Yes! > I'll take it. Woo-hoo! > Now, Homer, if I'm gonna manage your boxing career, > I want you to have complete faith in me.

Homer then steps out wide-eyed with his mouth open, and the scene moves to Moe's new office, where he gestures beside a desk topped with a small trophy and a golden boxing glove, with Moe Szyslak posters, hanging red boxing gloves, and a bare bulb overhead. Moe leans on the desk, looking annoyed, as a wall-mounted phone and a sign reading SZYSLAK hang nearby. > Come here, let me show you something. > Whoa, I've never been in here before. Yeah, well, > when I realized we hadn't had no ladies in here since 1979, I turned it into an office.

Moe speaks with his mouth open, then folds his arms and grins, and then his expression sours into a frown as he keeps his arms crossed. Posters on the wall show boxers and the words "KID MOE" partly visible at the top. > You used to be a boxer just like me? > Yup. > They called me Kid Gorgeous. > Later on, it was Kid Presentable. > Then Kid Gruesome. > And finally Kid Moe.

Boxing posters on the wall, including one reading KID MOE, and a pair of red boxing gloves hang behind them, with a gold trophy and a 'FOR YOUR QUARTER' machine on the left. In the final moment Homer pulls out a brown-framed photo and gazes at it while Moe keeps talking, and then the framed picture is shown up close: a handwritten note reading 'To Kid Moe, Keep on sluggin, Lucius' above a grinning boxer in gloves beside a man in a dark suit with spiky white hair and chains. > Hey, what's this? > Ah, that's my old spit bucket. > Yeah, I've been meaning to empty that out. > You know Lucius Sweet?

Homer grins and holds up a brown wooden-bordered photograph while Moe leans on the counter, first looking on, then smiling as he takes the picture, and finally frowning as he studies a photo of two men in boxing gear. Red boxing gloves hang on the wall and a sink sits at the right edge of the room. > He's exactly as rich and as famous as Don King, and he looks just like him, too. > Yeah, he was my manager. > Back when I was gorgeous, everybody wanted a piece of me. > But somehow, I just never made it to the big time.

Homer, bald and in a white shirt, speaks in front of boxing posters, including an orange 'TONIGHT SZYSLAK VS. OAKLEY' sign and a 'KID MOE' poster. The scene then shifts to the outside of the Simpsons' two-storey house, with its brown roof, arched windows, attached garage and mailbox on the lawn. > Why not?

Marge, with her tall blue beehive, frowns and glances sideways at Homer, who keeps holding his fork while Maggie sips from a cup at the right side of the table. The family stays seated throughout, with a coffee maker on the counter and a checkered floor below them. > You're 38 years old.

Marge speaks and looks toward Homer, who glances sideways with a sheepish look as they stand together. Marge then steps forward and to the left, her face tense and frowning, while Homer moves out of view on the right, leaving her alone at the sink with the rainy window behind her. > No problem. > A competent doctor! > Don't!

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and red bead necklace, stands arms crossed in a green garment beside the table, glaring and then turning her head away, looking annoyed and frowning as she opens her mouth to speak. A close-up shows an otoscope pressed to a yellow eye of Homer's face, and a wall rack of medical instruments with coiled cords appears behind them in a clinical room. > Well, sir, you more than meet every one of this state's requirements to box, wrestle, > or be shot out of a cannon. > Mm-hmm. > That's all we get for living in a state founded by circus freaks.

He points at the scan, then sweeps an open hand toward it, while Homer, shirtless and yellow-skinned, stands nearby with both palms turned up in a helpless shrug and a worried look. Hanging tubing and a coiled-cord device are visible on the wall beside him, and jars sit on the counter below the scan. > You have an absolutely unique genetic condition known as Homer Simpson syndrome. > Oh, why me? > Don't worry, it's quite beneficial.

He raises a thin pointer toward the brain, then moves it down to the jaw and throat area while smiling and tapping the scan. In the last moment he holds a long wooden pointer near the bottom of the image, glancing off to the side. > Your brain is cushioned by a layer of fluid one-eighth of an inch thicker than normal. > It's almost as if you're wearing a football helmet inside your own head.

Homer, in white underwear, sits on an exam table beside Marge, who wears a green dress and red beads and watches with a worried look, and metal instruments hang on a wall behind them. The scene then moves to a boxing ring with ropes and a dim ceiling lamp, where Homer, in white trunks and red gloves, stands across from a man in a flat cap and grey sweater who holds a red pad, with a trash can and folding chairs nearby. > Why, > I could wallop you all day with this surgical two-by-four without ever knocking you down. > But I have other appointments. > All right, Homer, let's see the left.

A small crack or mark is visible on the light blue wall, and a red wall fixture sits at the left edge. > Okay. Okay, let's see to right.

The scene ends on a close-up of Homer grinning with wide eyes, with a blue-paned arched window with a wooden blind and a ceiling with gold trim behind him. > Okay, punching isn't your thing, but that's okay. > You're not that kind of fighter. > What you're gonna do is stand there while your opponent gets exhausted from over-punching. > Then I can just push him over.

The scene opens on the purple exterior of Moe's, where a banner reads BOXING TONIGHT with the quote "CRUELEST OF SPORTS" from Newsday above the MOE'S sign and purple door.

Homer's eyes widen and his mouth opens, then Moe leans in grinning and holds a small dark object near Homer's head. Posters, hanging boxing gloves, a trash can and a wall sign that reads KID MO are visible in the room. > Okay, you're fighting a guy named Boxcar Bob. > Brawled his way up from the boxcars, did he? > Uh, no, not yet.

Moe then reaches up to a wall hook, lifts a pair of red boxing gloves, and holds them against his chest before carrying them over to Homer's side, where he grins and holds them near Homer's lap. Posters reading 'Szyslak' and 'Kid Moe' hang on the pink wall beside a trash can and a sink. > But he's a hungry young fighter.

The older man holds out a pair of red boxing gloves, and Homer takes one and examines it, then points at the glove, which is wrapped in barbed wire. The older man grins while Homer studies the glove. > I hope you do better with him than I did. > Gee, thanks, Moe. > What's this? > Ah, that's the barbed wire. > We called that the stinger. > They don't let you use that no more.

The scene then cuts to a shirtless, moustached man with swept-back brown hair in green shorts and a belt, bending forward and swinging a red gloved fist at a red-and-white polka-dot sack on a pole, while a man in a tan jacket and green tie and a man in a blue jacket watch from behind the ropes in a dim bar with a red ceiling, a "DRINK" sign and a wall fan. The moustached man then straightens up, holding up both red gloves in a fighting stance, as the man in the tan jacket watches beside him. > Now, no matter how much he hits you, you don't do nothing, okay? > You don't want to get drawn into a boxing match here.

Homer turns to glance sideways, and the scene then shifts to a row of onlookers at the bar, where a bald man in a green shirt with suspenders holds a brown bottle, speaks, and smiles, and a man in a grey jacket and pink sweater grins beside him. A 'DUFF' sign is visible at the top of the frame. > Way to go, Dad! > Take those punches! > Man, that tramp's got the energy of a hobo. > Yeah, he never stops punching.

The man throws punches at Homer, lands a glove on Homer's face so his head snaps back, and then the two stand face to face while the man lowers his gloves and Homer looks on. A man in a white shirt and another in a blue shirt watch from ringside, and an EXIT sign, a wall fan and a partly visible CIGARETTES sign are in the background. > Okay, homer, he's tired. He's tired.

Homer then raises both black-gloved fists overhead in triumph while the red words "ULTRA DELUXE WASH" appear across the screen.

Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a blue bow tie and suspenders, sits at a desk with a stack of papers and a cigar, watching with a wary frown. Behind them hang a boxing poster, a gold trophy of a boxer with raised gloves, and a wall box marked "FOR YOUR COURTESY"; the scene closes on Moe staring sideways, cigar in mouth, looking unimpressed. > Well, word is you manage a stalwart young pugilist who cannot be knocked down. > Homer?

The man gestures with his hands clasped, then raises his hands toward the ceiling tiles, then spreads his arms wide before gripping his gold chain lapels and finally clasping his hands at his waist. The setting is a bar with a framed picture on the pink wall and a sink visible at the bottom of the scene. > the fans are weary of fights that are over before they have an opportunity to even get > drunk. > I just need a body who can sustain verticality for three rounds.

Across from him, a heavyset man in a black jacket, red bow tie, gold chain and glasses, with spiky white-grey hair and a moustache, talks with his hands out, while Moe first rests a hand on his chest and then stares up at him warily. A trash can and tiled floor are visible at the edge of the room. > Yeah, but Homer's no boxer. He's just a freak. > Tatum or fustigate him.

He grins and smirks at first, then rubs his jeweled hands together and holds his hand against his chest, before raising both arms to lower a gold crown onto his head with his eyes closed. > last shot at the big time and I can make it happen. > Three rounds. > That's all I ask.

The scene then cuts to a starry night sky with a crescent moon and drifting purple clouds. Moe and Homer, the bald, heavyset man in a white shirt and blue pants, sit side by side in folding lawn chairs on a rooftop with bushes and a TV antenna behind them, Homer holding a drink, and a purple roof edge in front bearing a large red 'MOE'S' sign. > I gotta be honest with you, Homer. > I didn't bring you up here to show you my new tar paper.

Homer drinks from his bottle and reacts with wide eyes and an open mouth, while Moe turns to talk to him, then grins and holds up a small white parking pass that reads 'Springfield Stadium Parking Pass' toward Homer's face. The scene has the two sitting in white lawn chairs with the bottles resting on the armrests. > You didn't? No. Homer, how would you like to be heavyweight champion of the world? > Oh, sure. > Great.

He holds a small white card or paper in one hand and a brown bottle in the other, his eyes glancing sideways and his mouth moving as if speaking. In the later images he turns his head to the side, looking off to the left, while the bottle and card stay in his hands. > Oh, General. > Who's Drederick Tatum, anyway?

Moe scowls and speaks while Homer looks wide-eyed, then grins and fidgets with a small white card in his hands. The view then moves to the Springfield Penitentiary building, its name in black letters across the top, behind a chain-link fence. > Well, I trust you, Moe.

Behind the cell bars, an inmate in orange wielding a dark club or baton lunges toward a white-capped guard, who raises his hands and steps back, while a yellow flash of light flares near the bars and a bald inmate in orange looks on. Orange paint splatters the wall, broken debris and a chain lie on the floor, and the guard backs away from a barred cell where another orange-clad inmate is held. > Hey, guys, come on, shut up. > Sorry, champ. It was Jerry.

The heavy man looks down with his mouth closed, then speaks while gesturing with both hands, and finally presses his palms together and grins with his gold wristwatch visible against a purple wall. > Champ, Champ, do you feel remorse for your crime? > Oh, yes. Believe me, my God. > If I could turn back the clock on my mother's stare-pushing, > I would certainly reconsider it.

The bald man leans slightly forward, gazes sideways, then opens his mouth to speak, bares his teeth in a scowl, and sets his jaw while looking off to the side. The purple backdrop and the table and microphone stay the same throughout. > Drenerick, what do you think of Homer Simpson? > I think he's a good man. I like him.

In the next moment the clown leans forward, gripping a microphone and gesturing with his other hand while grinning and talking. He then settles back smirking with the microphone held in his hands. In the final moment, the clown is seated at the table, the microphones in front of him, while a line of people with raised hands watches. In the last shot, the clown sits alone at a wooden table in a hearing room under a Parole Board seal, with uniformed officers standing near the windows and an audience of seated people in the foreground. > Thank you, thank you, but the champ has no time for further queries. > This parole hearing is over. > I don't know what it was like.

Marge, with her tall blue beehive, reads a newspaper at the blue-covered kitchen table, where Lisa and Bart sit eating with Maggie in her high chair beside them. In the first two images Homer holds the mug and pours, then in the last images he sips from the mug, and in the final image he lifts his free arm outward while the coffee pot rests on the counter. The purple cabinets, checkered floor and plates of food on the table complete the scene.

Homer starts with his hands clasped at his waist and his mouth open as he speaks, then presses his hands to his chest, lowers them to his hips, and finally stretches both arms out wide while Marge watches him with a blank, unimpressed stare. Behind them are purple cupboards, a corn-patterned towel hanging on the wall, and a white canister on the counter. > but happy anniversary, baby. > Have you lost your mind?

Over the sequence she grimaces, opens her mouth to speak, then looks wary with her eyes narrowed and lips pressed together. In the later images she grins tightly, raises both yellow hands palm-up in an appealing, pleading gesture, and keeps her gaze fixed to the side. > Oh, come on!

Homer, mouth open and eyes wide, gestures with his hands near his chest, then turns to spread his arms wide in an open-palmed shrug while Marge looks on steadily. Kitchen details include a microwave, a jar on the counter, purple cabinets, and a coffee maker with a red carafe on the right. > We could have all the things we always dreamed of! > A snooty butler, carpeted carports, those blue cupcakes they sell sometimes!

Two plates with food sit on the blue tablecloth in front of them, with a small TV, cabinets and wall utensils behind. Homer gestures with both hands at his chest and grins while Marge listens with a wary, sidelong look, then Marge opens her mouth to speak and frowns. Homer raises a hand to his chest and talks, then folds his arms and grins broadly, while Marge keeps glancing at him with her eyes narrowed. > But you'll get killed!

Beside her, Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt, stands with a grim expression and then gestures with both hands, as if arguing his point. Behind them are a purple wall with a framed still-life painting, a blue cabinet, an orange cabinet with a shelf holding a green bottle and a plate, and a wall calendar.

Homer then sits down and eats with a fork as the others keep eating, and the scene shifts to the living room, where Grampa sits on a brown couch with Bart in his orange shirt on one side and Maggie in her blue outfit with a pacifier on his lap, beside a purple TV and a lamp. > Newspaper today. > Society put Dredrick Tatum away for his brutal crime, but he's paid his debt, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/863780.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/865865 ## 14:28–14:36 A muscular, shirtless bearded man with a flat-top haircut and a black belt, an unnamed one-off character resembling no regular, stands behind a jail cell's barred door in a grey, monochrome TV-screen view. He first glares out from behind the bars, then steps forward out of the cell's open doorway, flexing his arms and scowling as he walks toward the viewer.

Homer watches as a large red blob slides in from the right, then the screen shows a title card reading "This is Tatum vs. Simpson: Payback!" in red letters that crack and shatter, which resolves into a clean "Tatum vs. Simpson: Payback" title. > Yay!

SIMPSON PAYBACK", and a Duff Beer blimp overhead. A heavy man in a green cap and with a cigar in his mouth holds up white T-shirts printed with Homer's face and a red boxing glove in front of a "BOXING" sign. > Woo-hoo! > That's your daddy. > T-shirts! Get your T-shirts! > Tell him where you've been by wearing a T-shirt.

The scene then cuts to a door marked 'LOCKER ROOM' under a red ceiling lamp. Inside, Bart sits on a bench and grips the hand of the larger silhouetted man, who leans toward him beside lockers and a pair of hanging red boxing gloves. The two keep clasping hands as the moment closes. > You'll be okay, Dad. > Just make sure he hits you an even number of times so you don't end up with amnesia.

Afterward he stands with his back turned, watching Marge, who has a tall blue beehive and wears a green dress, walk away down the dim, yellow-green corridor under red hanging lamps. > Mo, I'm so glad I found you.

Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a white shirt with a tan sweater draped over his shoulders and a red tie, faces her and scowls, then jabs a finger toward her, leans in and gestures at her, and finally raises a hand to his chin and mouth as he talks. Marge stays still with a worried, tight-lipped expression while Moe's agitated gestures continue. > Hey, hey, hey, I'm not the villain here, okay? > If Homer gets killed in the ring tonight, it'll be because of your negative attitude. > Dare I said it.

Marge points a finger and waves her other hand while Moe holds a thin cigarette, then she reaches out to touch the towel on his shoulder as he glares sideways. In the final moment Moe raises both hands in an open gesture while Marge stares back with a set mouth. > I want you to throw in this towel and stop the fight. > Right, all right, all right, I promise, okay?

Moe then stands in a dim hallway beside a metal trash can, watching Marge in her green dress walk away through a doorway beneath a lit EXIT sign, with a partly visible LOCKER ROOM door on the left. Finally Moe lifts a crumpled towel to his head and wipes it, looking up with a sour expression. > Thank you.

In the final moment the older man in pink tilts his head back with his mouth open, a blue cylinder pressed to his ear and a white handkerchief in his other hand, as the crowd and a man in a green sweater with a rolled paper stay in the background. > Renier Wolfcastle. > TV anchorman and Springfield Institution, Mr. > Kent Brockman. > This just in, go to hell.

Moe gestures with his hands and faces Homer, who listens with a worried expression, while the boxing ring with its lights, rows of seats, and a red 'Duff' banner and 'Kwik-E-Mart' and 'Buzz Cola' signs hang in the background. Moe's hands rise and then lower as he talks and looks at Homer, who keeps staring ahead, and the camera-free view stays fixed on the ring behind them. > All right, Homer, I'm not gonna lie to you. > There's a good chance you can beat Tatum, > but you gotta visualize how you're gonna win, okay?

The cloud then shows a man with swept-back blond hair, in a blue suit and red tie, speaking into a microphone, and in the last moment he closes his eyes and lowers his head while the ring scene stays in the cloud. > Gotcha. > A congenital heart defect has apparently felled Tatum moments before he could step into > the ring.

A man in a white shirt stands in the ring pointing toward the approaching fighter, and the ring's canvas bears a large 'Duff' logo. The group continues down the ramp past rows of onlookers, several of whom stare at the crowd below with wide eyes.

The boxer bounces on his feet, raises his red gloves in a fighting stance, and then lifts both fists overhead in triumph while the crowd in the foreground cheers under bright stage lights. The blue ring apron displays a black lettered sign reading "Duff." > And to challenge the irresistible force of Tatum, we have the immovable object.

In the final part, a bald, heavyset man in a red bathrobe, Homer Simpson, walks down a narrow aisle between cheering purple-seated crowds, flanked by a thin older man in a white shirt and a tall, bald-headed man carrying a bucket, while spectators in the stands watch and a red rope runs along the ring's edge. > He's been called the Brick Hit House and is also known as the Southern Dandy Homer > Simpson.

Banners for Kwik-E-Mart, Blitz Cola, Laramie Cigarettes and Assassin are visible above the arena, and a metal bucket sits on the apron. The opponent is first upright between them, then raises a red-gloved fist toward the ropes, then leans back over the ropes while Grampa and Moe push his face and head with their hands.

Beside him, a man with a tall silver-white spiky hairdo, glasses, a moustache, a red bow tie and a thick gold chain in a dark jacket fidgets with his hands and the chain, grimacing, then grinning and talking as he tugs at it. Moe keeps his sullen, sideways scowl throughout while the man's gestures and expressions shift from mouth-open speaking to a broad toothy grin. > Your boy looks a little soft, Mo. > You do remember our arrangement? > Yeah, don't worry. He'll get you three rounds. > Stupendous, because if he goes down before that bell rings, your future's going with him.

The scene then pulls back to a packed arena where a bald wrestler in red trunks faces a dark-haired wrestler in dark trunks across a blue-roped ring, with a referee between them and a large black logo on the canvas, as the crowd watches from the stands and seats. > Okey-doke. Future down the crapper. > Gotcha. > Due to popular demand, we will forego our national anthem.

A close-up then shows red boxing gloves lunging forward, followed by a muscular, shirtless boxer with a black flat-top and stubble standing in a ring in red gloves, with spectators along the ropes below. > And now, ladies and gentlemen, > let's get ready to rumble!

He then steps forward, gloves raised, as a muscular opponent with red gloves enters from the right over a canvas marked with the word Duff. Homer staggers back with wide eyes as the opponent's huge brown-gloved... fist, a large brown blur, swings toward his face, and the crowd beyond the ropes, including several blue-haired and bald-headed spectators, stares open-mouthed in the final moments. > Okay, Homer, nothing to be worried about. > Just...

Bart raises his hand, then lowers it and gestures while Lisa looks on and speaks, and later Marge leans in with a tall blue beehive while holding Maggie, who has a pacifier and blue bow, as Lisa lowers her eyes. > Wow. > I've never seen Dad hit somebody like that before. > What are you talking about? > Isn't Dad the one in the black trunks? No. > Uh-oh. > What? What? What am I missing? What? And there's Tatum showboating for the crowd.

Homer stands sweating under bright lights, then the boxer kicks up a leg and throws punches, snapping Homer's head back. Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a white shirt and red suspenders, watches anxiously at ringside and then glances up at the glaring arena lights. > Oh, jeez, only six seconds in. > Attaboy, Homer! > Keep dancing.

He stands still at first, looking tired and dejected with his mouth open, then shifts his weight and turns slightly while the crowd watches. On the right, a muscular, bearded, shirtless boxer in black trunks and black boots, wearing red gloves, steps in toward the ring post and stands with his gloves raised, grinning. Ringside, a man in a red shirt and a man in a teal shirt watch with flat, unimpressed expressions, and the ring post with its grey padding stands at the left edge. > Showing utter disdain for his opponent's abilities, > Tatum is taking a short mid-round breather to converse with actor Charlie Sheen.

A bald referee in a white shirt and bow tie then stretches his arms out to hold the fighters apart, as the crowd in the arena under bright lights reacts with open-mouthed expressions and cheers. In the final moment, Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green sweater, raises both arms in the stands while Homer, in white trunks and red gloves, boxes in the distant ring. > You know what's great there is the sea bass. > They do it blackened or sautéed. It's stupendous. > Okay, break it up. Break it up, you two. > Homer! Homer, he's not going to do it! You're going to get tired!

The view then cuts to a blurred crowd of cheering spectators, including a figure with a tall blue beehive hairdo, Marge, near the back. Homer returns in tight close-up, eyes narrowed and mouth set in a grimace, before turning his head further away and squeezing his eyes shut as he clenches his jaw. Only the crowd, the stadium lights and the black background are visible around him. > You've got to hit him back! > Hit him back! > That cactus is right. > I've only got one chance. > I got to knock him out!

Homer raises a glove, then throws a punch at the opponent, who raises his own gloves in return. Later Homer stands hunched with his head bowed between the red and white ropes while a cornerman and spectators with blue hair watch from the ringside. > Hang in there, Homer! Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1161160.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1165956 ## 19:31–19:43 Moe, the grey-haired bartender, and a bald, bearded older man with glasses lean on the blue ring apron at ringside, watching a bout while a crowd looks on behind them. Homer, shirtless in white boxing trunks, stands dazed in the red-roped ring under bright stage lights, then Moe covers his face with both hands as spectators watch from the bottom left. The scene is a boxing arena with a blue ring rope, a grey microphone stand, and a blue cup held by the bearded man. > Only 440 more seconds! > He's getting a second wind. > Oh, he's getting killed. > He's gonna die on his feet. > I can't watch this. > I gotta get out of here.

A heavy man in a purple shirt holds a cup, and an older white-haired man in a pink shirt and gold necklace waves a cup in anger while others cheer and yell. At the ringside desk, a dark-haired doctor in a white coat with a goatee gestures toward the fight, beneath a sign reading "FIGHT DOCTOR". > Somebody stop the fight! > Where's the doctor? > Kill him! > Kill him! It looks like it's all over.

Homer stands warily, then grimaces and looks dazed in a close-up, while the muscular boxer sets his stance, raises his gloves and glares at him with a menacing grin. > Tatum wants to finish this with one punch. > And here it comes. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1197238.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1201200 ## 20:06–20:16 Homer, a yellow cartoon man with bald head and no shirt, is in a boxing ring, dazed and wobbly, while a muscular, heavyset opponent with a buzz cut and stubble throws punches in red gloves. Later, Homer is lifted up and out of the ring by a rope hoist, his feet dangling, while a man in a grey suit pulls him upward. Below, the muscular boxer stands alone in black trunks with arms raised, a crowd of cartoon spectators fills the stands, and the canvas floor reads 'DUFF' in large black letters under bright stage lights. > Oh, my God! > Simpson's manager has flown into the ring and is airlifting him out.

In a dim arena with spotlights on metal trusses, a boxer in red trunks and white boots is hoisted upward on a rope beneath an orange parachute canopy, rising past the lights and then drifting across the rafters toward the right side of the arena. > Ladies and gentlemen, > whatever dignity remained in boxing is literally flying out the window.

Moe scowls, bares his teeth and speaks, then narrows his eyes while Homer, pinned in his grip, stares wide-eyed with his mouth open and then clenched. Their positions barely change across the sequence, with Moe's grip steady and Homer's expression tightening as the moment goes on. > Are you an angel? > Yes, Homer, I'm an angel. All us angels wear faris slacks. > But you stopped the fight.

Homer's mouth opens in a shout with wide eyes and a grimace, then his face relaxes into a closed-eye, content expression as Moe glares and turns his head toward the truss. The scene has a black background with the purple scaffolding and a dangling strap visible. > Won't everyone be mad at you? Ah, let him be mad. > The only thing that matters to me is you're safe. > No! > Sorry.

A caption reads "SPRINGFIELD COLISEUM, TATUM VS. SIMPSON, PAYBACK" as the parachute lands in a pile by the pair, who stand in front of a crowd of onlookers, including a boy in a red cap and a bald older man in a brown coat. Power-plant cooling towers stand in the background.

The boxer's mouth moves as he speaks, then a man in a black tuxedo with a red bow tie, gold chain and spiky grey hair grins and gestures with a ringed hand, and later rests his hand on the boxer's shoulder while the boxer looks on with a sour expression. > Homie, your manager obviously loves you very much. > Lucius, would you do that for me? > Absolutely, I would. > Now, get in the van. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1249790.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1254378 ## 21:00–21:13 Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a white shirt and suspenders, stands outside beside a chain-link fence at night while a heavyset Black man with spiky grey hair, glasses, a moustache, a red bow tie, a black jacket and a heavy gold chain argues with him. The man talks, raises a finger, then grits his teeth, and Moe listens with a sour look before holding a folded white check. The scene ends with Moe alone, staring down at the check in his hands against a purple night sky with bushes behind the fence. > You couldn't even give me one lousy round, Mo. > You will always be a loser. Now take your check for $100,000 and get out of my sight. > I don't need your stinking money.

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green sweater, holds baby Maggie in a blue bow and stands beside him as Bart in his orange shirt and Lisa in her red dress come up in front of the group. Grampa then lifts his hands toward Bart's head, and in the final moment he crosses his arms while Marge rests a hand on Homer's arm and the children crowd close to their parents, with a crowd of onlookers watching in the background.

Marge holds Homer by the shoulders and leans toward him, looking concerned while he stares blankly to the side with heavy-lidded eyes and a dazed expression. Across the sequence she keeps her hands on his shoulders, tilting her head and glancing at him, while his expression stays slack and unfocused. > Oh, homie, are you okay? > I can't remember where we parked. > That's all right. > We'll just wait till everyone else leaves. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1276275.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1278986 ## 21:22–21:30 Homer, in a red bathrobe with blue trim, stands outside at night beside a chain-link fence and hedges while Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green cardigan, grins and pats his shoulder. Bart, in an orange shirt, holds up a small white tooth between his fingers, and Homer then touches his jaw and pinches the tiny tooth himself. The purple night sky and dark blue pavement frame the outdoor scene. > I got your tooth, Dad. > Uh, not mine. > Thank you, Moe. I know you gave up your dreams for Homer.

At first they stand facing each other at a chain-link fence under a purple night sky, with Moe smiling and Marge looking at him. Moe then gestures with both hands as he talks, and Marge looks on. Moe then lowers his head and touches his chest with one hand, looking downcast. Finally the view drops to Moe's grey trousers and brown shoes as he rises off the ground above the fence, while Marge looks up at him with her mouth open. > Well, what a dream's matter, Marge. I was able to stick up for a pal. > Well, so long, Springfield.

Below, a row of onlookers at a fence beside cooling towers watches him: Grampa, Homer in a red NEN jersey, Marge with her tall blue beehive, Lisa in orange, and baby Maggie in blue. The scene then cuts to the family against a dark blue background, with Marge, Homer in a red robe, Lisa, Bart, Grampa and Maggie all raising their arms and waving. > Where are you going? > Oh, nowheres in particular. > I just need some time to think. > Hey, there you are!

As the scene continues, he stands with his arms raised and then leaps about, while white credit text appears over the sky: first 'Executive Producers Bill Oakley & Josh Weinstein', then 'Executive Producers James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Sam Simon'. > People who need people > Are the luckiest people Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1311519.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1314230 ## 21:58–22:06 Opening credits play over a purple night sky with nuclear cooling towers, where a small figure in a red jumpsuit stands by a fence in front of a row of trees, with the credits Executive Producers James L. Brooks, Matt Groening and Sam Simon shown in white letters. The scene then cuts to a rainy tropical island with thatched huts and palm trees, where a grey-haired man in purple pants and a white shirt, wearing a backpack tank, dangles from a rope while holding a dark-skinned man in an orange suit who cradles a baby with a pacifier. Over the rain-streaked scene the credits change in turn from Starring Dan Castellaneta to Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright and Hank Azaria, with the hanging figures staying in place as the rain falls around them. > in the world Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1319443.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1322154 ## 22:06–22:18 A frail, stooped old man with grey hair at the sides, in a white shirt and red tie, hangs from ropes under a canister-like jetpack rig above a jungle clearing of bamboo and a muddy mound, with a figure in a pith helmet below him. He then drifts over a forest fire, gripping a red hose that sprays a white jet of water into flames and grey smoke among burning pine trees. White credit text overlays the scene, reading 'Special Guest Voice Michael Buffer,' 'Also Starring Pamela Hayden,' 'Executive Consultant Brad Bird,' 'Animation Producers Bill Schultz Michael Wolf,' and 'Story Editors Dan Greaney Ron Hauge Ned Goldreyer.' > With one person > One very special > person Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E03/1327368.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e03-the-homer-they-fall/1332164 ## 22:18–22:29 Mr. Burns, a thin, stooped old man, dangles from a parachute above a village of thatched huts while CARE boxes drop past him.
