Homer, the bald, stubbly man in a white shirt and blue pants, then stands beside the pink car in front of the open garage, with a bicycle, boxes and a green mailbox nearby. > ajes Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1043.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/6256 ## 0:12–0:23 A small figure in a cowboy hat and orange shirt runs across a dusty desert at sunset past a red-brown couch and a saguaro cactus, while a larger cowboy-hatted figure watches from the left edge. The couch then appears to drive across the sand carrying Homer in a cowboy hat and red bandana, Marge with her tall blue beehive, and three smaller children in hats, with Maggie among them. The scene ends on a pink television screen that first reads 'CREATED BY MATT GROENING' in yellow lettering and then 'DEVELOPED BY JAMES L. BROOKS, MATT GROENING, SAM SIMON'.

The two climb the steps carrying books, with Bart holding his books under one arm and Lisa clutching a stack of colored books to her chest. On the sidewalk Bart turns to look at Lisa as they talk, and then the two walk together along the path with Lisa in front, while the credits Co-Executive Producer GEORGE MEYER and Co-Executive Producer MIKE SCULLY appear on screen. > You sure look stupid in that green dress, Lise. > That's funny. I don't feel stupid.

A crowd of students in green clothes surges down the hallway and swarms a brown-haired boy in a shamrock hat and shirt, pinching him as they push in. The scene closes on Homer, bald and scowling, beside the shamrock-hat boy, who pinches his fingers together as the purple-haired girl with the green bow glares in the foreground. > Hey, everybody's wearing green. > Oh, no. > Pinch! Pinch! Pinch! Happy St. Patrick's Day, loser!

The group pinches and grabs at Bart as he struggles and yells, and he ends up on the maroon carpet with his mouth wide open while hands keep pinching at his legs. The on-screen credit reads "Co-Executive Producer STEVE TOMPKINS" over the crowd. > Ow! > Quit it! > Pinch! Pinch! Pinch! > Pinch! No one's pinching his legs! > Pinch! > Pinch! Pinch! Oh, it's been St. Patrick's Day for hours, and I'm still not drunk yet!

Homer gestures with his arms, then looks wide-eyed at his wristwatch while the bystanders watch, and he then walks away down the street past a red fire hydrant, with a pink building and the MOE'S sign visible behind him. > Oh, it's never gonna be 9 o'clock. > Oh, Mo!

Moe scowls and then opens the door a crack to peer out, and the man in the green sweater with swept dark hair gestures toward the door as Homer watches with a smile and arms folded. The scene ends with Moe grimacing and clutching the bottle, and on-screen credits reading 'Supervising Producer Jonathan Collier' and 'Supervising Producer Ken Keeler' appear over the lower part of the frame. > Thank God you're here! We'd like to come in and drink, please. > We kicked down the back door, but then there was a metal door. > Yeah, all right. Listen up. This is the busiest drinking day of the year.

Moe scowls and gestures with his hand, then folds his arms, while a man in a grey shirt points toward the door and Carl raises an arm. The scene shifts to two men in green going through the doorway while a third man in a green shirt watches from the side, and producer credits appear in white text across the lower part of several frames. > Where are the designated drivers? > Beat it. I got no room for cheapskates. > Top of the morning to ye on this gray, drizzly afternoon.

Over the first four frames, on-screen credit captions name him in turn as Consulting Producer Dan McGrath, Consulting Producer David Mirkin, Consultant John Swartzwelder and Co-Producer Colin A.B.V. Lewis. He keeps his hands clasped on the podium while he changes expression, from a sleepy-eyed stare to a wide-eyed open-mouthed grin, and in the last frame he grins with his eyes wide and no caption appears. > Kent O. Brockman, live on Main Street, where today everyone is a little bit Irish, > except, of course, for the gays and the Italians.

Chief Wiggum, the fat police chief, then stands in front of a row of onlookers, swinging a nightstick whose tip whirls near a man in a green sweater, who reels back with yellow splatter flying from his face as a white bucket tumbles through the air. > Burn rates and more belong. Nothing to see here. > Just over, folks. Parades just bring out so many emotions in me.

Behind them are a woman with curly black hair in a teal top, a bald man in a green sweater, and a woman with a brown bob in a teal dress. Across the moment, Marge's expression shifts from a smile to speaking with her mouth open, Bart turns his eyes downward, and a hand gestures near Bart's head from behind him. The scene ends on the on-screen credits, which change from 'Produced by J. Michael Mendel' to 'Produced by Richard Raynis,' 'Produced by David Silverman,' 'Produced by Richard Sakai and Denise Sirkot,' and finally 'Written by John Swartzwelder' in white letters over the crowd. > Joy, excitement, looking. > Mom, can I go buy one of those long plastic horns? > Oh, Bart, we've bought those before, > and you always just throw them out the car window on the ride home.

The title card 'Directed by BOB ANDERSON' appears over the crowd, which then turns to a street parade outside Springfield Grocers, where a rainbow-arched 'POT O GOLD' float sits beside a 'ST. PATRICK' float carrying a white-robed, mitred figure with a crozier and green snakes. Spectators in the foreground watch the floats pass along the street. > I get bored with them. > But that won't happen this time.

Bart, in his orange shirt, is squeezed against the wide rear of a large woman in teal and green stockings at a white railing, and he turns to look up at her. Later the crowd watches a Channel Six float, a white tower with a shamrock-trimmed balcony, where a man in a green cap and a woman raise cups and a figure in a 7 jersey sits at its base. > Beep, beep, coming through. > Hey, Notre Dame, move it or lose it. > Luga! > Will the owner of the great big butt please move it out of my face. > Hey, Mom, on TV.

A green-bowler-hatted man in a blue sleeveless shirt crowds in at the right, and a curly-haired Black man appears behind them. As Brockman keeps talking, the Sox fan grips a red cup near him, the curly-haired man reaches over, and the green-hatted man shoves forward and then has his face pushed aside by a hand from the right edge, with green bunting, a building backdrop, and 'SOX' visible on the jersey. > Hey, where's that weather check? > This is some wicked party, huh? Hi, have you seen Sally? > Get away from there. Hey, I need that pencil. > Ladies and gentlemen, what you're seeing is a total disregard for the things St. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/133050.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/137012 ## 2:22–2:32 Principal Skinner, with neat grey hair and a green suit and tie, stands holding a microphone at a St. Patrick's Day event decorated with green bunting, as a shirtless dark-haired man and a dark-skinned man in a blue shirt and green shamrock hat press in around him. Skinner grimaces and wraps an arm around himself while the shirtless man clenches a fist and scowls, then the men keep crowding him as Skinner lifts a hand to his head and speaks, with a brick building facade and a green-striped stage behind them. > Patrick's Day stands for. > All this drinking, violence, destruction of property. > Are these the things we think of when we think of the Irish?

A stooped figure in a tan suit waves from the float, and Bart and others in the street watch as a yellow splat appears on the book and a bottle-wielding man in green rushes the float. Lettering on the book and bottle reads 'The Drunken Irish Novelists of Springfield' and 'Irish Whiskey,' and later the float is seen beside a building sign reading 'John Bull's Fish & Chips' with a Union Jack banner, parked cars passing in front. In the final moments the crowd near the float holds cans of Duff beer, a long-haired woman in a green outfit and a man with a moustache in a blue jacket stand among them, and confetti falls over the scene. > Hey, go, go, go!

The crowd jostles and shoves as a curly-haired man in a green sweater with a moustache, a grimacing curly-haired man, and a man with spiky black hair, all shout and strain forward, with green bunting on the buildings behind them. In the background, green-clad showgirls dance and pose on a wooden Duff beer barrel float beside a Pawn Shop sign. > Hey, give me some room! > Watch the double, Seamus! > Hey, look, everybody, free beer! > Open your yaps, boyos!

Bart is first seen with a wide-eyed look as a green pipe-like object is swung near his face, and as a yellow substance splatters across the scene, Bart rubs his face and then slumps with a dazed, drooping expression as the crowd around him, including Milhouse-like and other one-off townspeople in green shirts, cheers with open mouths. Visible on-screen signs read TWELVE-DAY DRY CLEANERS at number 507 and HEINRICH'S MONOCLE SHOP beneath a red-and-white striped awning. > Hey, what the... Oh...

He holds a red-and-white megaphone to his mouth, kicks his legs and dances, and swings an arm up while others raise cups and fists in the air. A brown bottle with a blue label is in his other hand, and a clear window and tall orange building stand behind the crowd. > Everybody... everybody get naked. > Come on, don't be stuck up. It's going to be great.

Bart Simpson, in an orange shirt and blue shorts, then walks alone down an empty street between lines of onlookers in green under a green 'HAPPY ST. PATRICKS DAY' banner, his arms held out from his sides as he moves toward the viewer. > Well, why not? > This party's just getting started! > Stop the celebration! > That small boy is drunk!

A boy in a green shirt throws both arms up and shouts while a spiky-haired boy in the foreground glances sideways. The crowd then moves into a bar under green banners reading "Erin Go Bragh" and "Kiss Me, I'm Irish," where Barney, a heavy man with messy brown hair, sits at the counter while grey-haired Moe pulls draft beers from the taps and patrons raise their mugs. > Yay! > Look at me! Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/206665.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/212504 ## 3:39–3:47 Homer, wearing a barrel over his head and a green shirt, sits at the bar of Moe's tavern with Barney, Carl, and a long-nosed man in green, all holding beer mugs, while a crowd of patrons stands behind them. Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a green bow tie, first stands behind the counter, then scowls and points a finger at the others as Barney laughs and the long-nosed man looks startled. A small TV on the wall shows a cartoon figure in a red dress, and by the end Homer raises both hands to the sides of his barrel in alarm. > I'm the Prime Minister of Ireland! > Hey Homer, ain't that your kid on TV?

Grey-haired news anchor Kent Brockman, in a red jacket and blue tie, reads from a sheet of paper at a news desk while a small inset picture shows a tall blue-haired woman beside a boy in orange. The on-screen caption reads "6 NEWS DRUNKEN BOY-LIVE". > What are you looking at? > What are you looking at? The innocent words of a drunken child.

Over the five frames he looks down at the paper, glances up with wide eyes, and moves his mouth as he speaks, ending with a stern, steady gaze. A small inset picture in the upper right shows a tall-haired woman in a green dress beside a spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt in front of a storefront with bottles. > Well, I'll tell you what we're looking at, young man. > A town gone mad. > A town whose very conscience was washed away in a tide of beer and green vomit.

The family then rises: Homer stands and walks left across the rug while Marge follows behind him and Bart trails after, moving toward the hallway with a framed portrait of Lisa on the wall. Finally Marge stands in the middle with Lisa partly hidden behind her, Homer stands looking toward the room, and Bart stands beside him by a red side table and chair, all facing one another on the pink-walled room's rug. > I'm going down to Moe's for a couple beers. > I'll come with you. No! > No more drinking.

Marge first looks annoyed and speaks with her mouth open, then Homer, eyes rolled upward, speaks and reaches out to grip her shoulder. Marge looks up at him with a worried expression while Homer keeps talking, and in the last moment Marge lowers her eyelids in a weary, unimpressed look while Homer, smiling, rests a hand on his belly. No on-screen text is visible. > I'm tired of looking like the world's worst mother. > Oh, honey, you're not the world's worst mother. > What about that freezer lady in Georgia? > But what's the solution? > Are we so bereft of ideas that we must revive the antiquated notion of prohibition?

Across the moment he holds his paper with both hands while his eyes widen and his expression shifts from a clenched-teeth grimace to a open-mouthed look of alarm, then to a stern, frowning stare. Only his face and expression change; the blue-tied anchor remains seated behind the desk throughout. > Channel 6 says yes.

The scene then cuts to a crowd of angry women in a packed room, including a woman with orange curly hair and a woman with grey-violet hair, as they clench their fists and scowl. Protest signs read "PROHIBITION NOW!", "SAY NO TO DRUNKS", and a partly hidden "DRAFT MEN, NOT..." sign. > Prohibition. > I tried that in the movies and it didn't work. > I predict this is the last we'll be hearing about prohibition. > We want prohibition! We want prohibition! > You can't seriously want to ban alcohol?

The judge scowls, speaks sharply, and grits his teeth, shifting his head and glancing sideways before finally squeezing his eyes shut in exasperation. The wooden bench, red chair, and carved panels behind him remain fixed throughout. > It tastes great, makes women appear more attractive, > and makes a person virtually invulnerable to criticism. > Oh!

The woman with grey-violet hair in a light blue collar and pink sweater first covers her face with both hands, then clasps her hands near her chin, and later reaches to touch the orange-haired woman's shoulder while speaking. A partial sign reading "now!" is visible at the top of the frame. > Won't somebody please think of the children? > What kind of an example are we setting? > Ladies, please.

Below, a crowd of townspeople with a white-haired woman in a fringed shawl, an orange-haired woman in pink, and a woman with black curly hair watches. The scene then moves to a library where a thin man with glasses, a cap and suspenders reads an unrolled paper beside tall bookshelves of colored volumes and a wooden ladder. > astronauts and World Series heroes have been either drunk or on cocaine. > Wait, looky here.

He studies a long unrolled document, then lifts it higher and turns slightly as he points at it with one finger. The shelves of green, orange, red and blue volumes stay fixed behind him throughout. > Seems there's been a prohibition law on the books in Springfield for 200 years. > It's just never been enforced.

Inside a wood-paneled room with orange and brown geometric walls, an elderly man in a flat cap, glasses, red bow tie and suspenders reads an unrolled scroll while the group watches, and a yellow hand from the left reaches in to take hold of the scroll. Wiggum grimaces and glares while the man in purple speaks and gestures, and the elderly man keeps reading the document. > Get out of here, old clerk guy. > There's also a law requiring ducks to wear long pants. > Wait a minute, let me see that.

The view then widens to a courtroom where a judge sits at the raised bench with several officials, including a police officer in a blue uniform, while a large crowd of women with varied hairstyles stands facing them. An American flag, a green flag, and a wall clock hang or stand in the wood-paneled room as the judge holds the scroll. > Well, I'll be darned long pants. Read the other one, the non-duck one. > And spirituous beverages are hereby prohibited under penalty of > catapult.

Carl sits at a table reading the same paper, and a woman in a purple outfit collapses backward onto the green carpet beside a kitchen counter. > Did you see this, Bernice? > Oh, my.

A yellow bulldozer then shoves a heap of dirt and rubble over the barrels, while the Springfield Shopper headline 'CITY GOES DRY TODAY' with the subhead 'Bums Extend Deadline' opens the sequence, which begins as a black screen. Along the way a red Duff delivery truck drives across the wasteland past a green sign and piles of junk. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/352227.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/357440 ## 6:03–6:08 A grey-haired man in a blue suit and red tie stands at the center of a small group, with a curly-haired man in glasses and a red jacket on his left, a man in a brown suit with reddish hair holding a microphone, and a woman with a tall brown hairdo and red bow tie operating a movie recorder. Outdoors on a dirt ground under a blue sky with clouds, a huge yellow machine with a large purple roller wheel dominates the foreground, while a crowd of onlookers behind it watches. The crowd raises their arms and cheers as the machine's yellow blade sweeps past, and then the focus shifts to the group, where the man in the blue suit faces the reporter's microphone. No on-screen text is visible. > No, we're not worried. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/364739.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/366199 ## 6:08–6:19 A grey-haired man in a blue suit and red tie stands outdoors in front of a yellow microphone held by a yellow hand, with a dark-haired man in round glasses and a maroon jacket behind him against a bright blue sky with clouds. The grey-haired man speaks, then grimaces with his teeth showing, looks sideways, and finally settles into a smug, closed-mouth smile. Behind them, a yellow building with a purple roof sends up grey smoke from a distant chimney. > Our customers buy Duff for its robust taste, not its alcoholic content. > I predict our new alcohol-free Duff Zero will sell even better than our previous brand.

He then holds a can up in one hand, and the scene moves to a tall building topped by a red Duff sign with the caption THIRTY MINUTES LATER. Finally, the man stands before a chain-link fence beside a white sign reading OUT OF BUSINESS, first with his back turned, then turning to face forward with a glum expression. > Oh, yeah. > Well, that's the end of me.

A small group of townspeople, including a boy in blue overalls and a woman in a pink dress, is in the street behind him beside a pink car. He continues to a red door with a round window and a gold knob, under the sign for Moe's Pet Shop. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/391641.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/396021 ## 6:41–6:53 Carl sits at a crowded bar in a red jacket and white turtleneck beside a bald man in a mint shirt and purple tie, with a cluster of patrons packed behind them. Homer shifts from standing in the crowd to leaning on the counter with his arms folded, while a moustached man gestures nearby beneath a Duff sign. Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a bow tie, talks to Homer as Homer holds a foamy mug, with bottles and inverted glasses on the shelves behind them. > Dateline, Springfield. > With Prohibition back in force, > sobriety's peaceful slumber was shattered by its noisy neighbor, the Speakeasy. > Glad you're finally back in business, Mo. > Yeah, that was a scary couple hours. > The suppliers of the illegal booze, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/402485.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/407490 ## 6:53–7:06 Chief Wiggum and Carl sit in a white police car outside Springfield County College, while a stitched pink figure in the foreground points off-screen at the start. A grey-haired man in a dark suit watches from the window of a passing truck, and Wiggum then hands over a stack of cash that Carl takes with a grin. Barrels, a Tony's storefront, and a Springfield County College sign are visible along the street. > Gangsters running truckloads of smuggled hooch on the way from Shelbyville. > And John Law was helpless. > You didn't see nothing. > I don't know why people are always bad-mouthing the Mafia. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/414789.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/420003 ## 7:06–7:16 Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man in a straw boater and fur-collared coat holding a martini, stands at a crowded bar with a grey-haired man in a bow tie and a heavy, messy-haired Barney nearby, while a dancer in a red top and white boots kicks up a leg in the background. The scene opens on the dark exterior of Moe's Pet Shop beside King Toot's Music Store, then moves inside to Moe's, where patrons crowd the bar holding mugs and cocktails as the dancer leaps and the group sways and chats. The bar's pink-and-green lattice panels, an EXIT sign, and a 'Moe's' sign on the wall are visible. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/427719.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/431681 ## 7:16–7:27 Chief Wiggum, the fat police chief with blue hair in a blue uniform, stands in a crowded red-ceilinged club with a woman in a red bikini top, white boots and a blue-beaded necklace, while a woman with a tall brown hairdo and a bikini watches. At first Wiggum and a dancing woman in a red bikini and white boots throw their arms up amid a jostling crowd, then the scene settles as Wiggum raises a hand to his head and the bikini woman leans toward him, while an older woman in a green dress and a woman in an orange dress look on, and a Black man in a white shirt and a man in a light jacket hold drinks. Behind them are an EXIT sign and an orange ISOTOPES banner. > Wahoo! > Shaw! > Oh, geez, this looks bad. Better turn on the all-wigham charm. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/437938.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/442317 ## 7:27–7:39 Chief Wiggum, the fat police chief in a blue uniform with blue hair, grins and shifts his weight in a crowded meeting hall while onlookers watch, and later looks uneasy in close-up as a woman with a tall brown hairdo and blue bow speaks sharply nearby. The scene then cuts to the exterior of Springfield Town Hall at night, its name lettered across the facade, and finally shows the same woman leaning over a wooden table, glaring at a man in a purple suit seated across from her in a room with an exit sign. > PERVERT! Oh, boy. > That sounded bad. > We demand you bring in a police chief who will enforce the prohibition law. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/448990.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/453578 ## 7:39–7:51 Mrs. Krabappel, with her tall brown hairdo and pink sweater, stands at the left edge of a wood-paneled room with a flag behind her, facing a heavyset man in a purple suit and blue tie with brown hair, who sits at a desk beside a thin man in a navy suit and black tie. The purple-suited man speaks with a sneer and clenched teeth, then slumps with half-closed eyes while the thin man turns his head and leans toward him. An older woman with a puffy lavender hairdo in a light blue jacket stands at the right edge as the seated man looks sideways and sinks into his seat, with a pen and a wooden block on the desk in front of him. > Demand? Who are you to demand anything? > I run this town. > You're just a bunch of low-income nobodies. > Uh, election in November. Election in November. > What? > Again? > This stupid country.

He then holds up a yellow telegram in both hands, and a close-up shows its text: "MR. BANNER= SPRINGFIELD NEEDS YOU!= MAYOR QUIMBY SPRINGFIELD." > With rum-running hoodlums in the catbird seat, > Springfield sent for the one man who could clean up the town and shoot the gangsters, > Rex Benner.

LOVE MOM" held by yellow hands, before returning to the man with the envelope. The scene moves to the exterior of the Springfield Police Station, then inside, where Chief Wiggum sits in a red chair with his feet up beside a desk, and the fedora-wearing man stands near the desk while officers look on at a small pink-screened television. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/484651.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/488613 ## 8:13–8:27 Chief Wiggum, the heavy police chief in a blue cap, is first seen reclining in a red swivel chair with his feet up while two officers look on, and a man in a brown suit, fedora and vest stands nearby, unnamed. Wiggum's chair then tips and he sprawls on the purple office floor beside a dropped cap and a tipped red chair, as the officers gather around and the man in the suit gestures angrily. In the final shots, Wiggum is still on the floor in a hallway beside a coat rack, while the man in the brown suit raises a clenched fist and glares at him. > Whoa! > Whoa! Ow! > Hey, I was watching that, and I was sitting there. > Rex Banner, I'm running this department now. > Wiggum, you're out. > Suspended indefinitely.

The man then stands before a row of three uniformed officers beside a barred jail cell, sternly pointing at them and scolding them, and one officer has a round object in his mouth. Wiggum returns in the later frames, seen from behind in the foreground and then in the background as the hatted man glares at the lined-up officers. > Huh? > Tuck in that shirt. > Get those shoes shined. > Take that badge out of your mouth. You're police officers. > What are you waiting for? > Somebody to kiss you goodbye?

Inside a police station with a purple floor, a man in a brown fedora, brown suit and back turned to the room faces a line of uniformed officers, while one officer crouches and hurries away past a doorway. The scene then moves outside, where the same fedora-wearing man, in a grey vest and black tie, stands by a stone wall with bushes and hills behind him and rubs his hands together. > Well... No, no, no, I guess not. > Wasting no time, > Rex Banner tore into the bootleggers like a chippy tearing into a lobster.

Trucks on the road approach the wall, and an orange truck with a blue trailer slams into the barricades and wall, knocking the barricades aside while cars pass behind. The hat-wearing man then appears in a close-up of his scowling face with paper scraps fluttering at the left edge, and the scene ends in a warehouse with stacked wooden barrels as yellow liquid splashes out from the barrels at the lower left. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/529279.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/532615 ## 8:57–9:05 Chief Wiggum, the fat police chief in uniform, stands at the front right in a shooting gallery-like wooden room, firing a tommy gun with flames shooting from the barrel while other officers in blue uniforms fire beside him and spent shells fly through the air. Later, a man in a brown fedora, brown coat and vest with arms crossed stands beside a grey-haired, heavyset man in a green polo shirt and dark coat, who holds a stack of cash that is passed between them while the grey-haired man leans in and then smiles. The room has wooden walls, a sloped wooden ceiling and metal beams, and a ceiling light is visible in the upper left. > How do you know you don't like bribes if you've never taken one? > Here. > Say, this is nice.

The man in the fedora first holds a fanned stack of cash in his palm, then points and gestures with his hand while the man in the coat shrugs with open palms and grins. Next the fedora man crosses his arms and scowls while the greyhaired man, cigar in hand, grimaces and tilts his head, and in the final moment the greyhaired man smirks while the fedora man stands arms folded. A diagonal metal beam and a small round light fixture are visible overhead. > No, no bribes. Okay, you win. From now on, we'll stick to smuggling heroin. > See that you do. > At first, I thought prohibition was a good thing.

A small grey photo shows an unnamed thin-faced man in a dark fedora and suit with a frowning expression. Across all five images the paper stays motionless with no visible action, while a red and blue object sits at the far right beside the paper.

Marge glances toward the window, where a grey-haired man in a dark jacket appears outside. Homer lowers his paper and looks over at Marge, who keeps washing and then dries a plate with a towel as the newspaper stays raised in front of Homer. > People were drinking more and having a lot more fun. > But without beer, prohibition doesn't work.

The man raises a hand and talks animatedly, then slumps forward with his arms resting on the sill and a glum, staring look. The kitchen has orange cabinets, a dish rack, and a newspaper with a printed headline. > Hey, hi. > Can I arrest any of you people for anything? > No. > Ah, jeez, I don't have anything to do anymore.

He sits with his hands clasped and then gestures with open palms while talking, his eyes widening, before he clenches his teeth in a grimace and settles back into a heavy-lidded, sullen look with his chin resting on his arms. > With bannery around, alcohol and crime are history in this town. > And so am I.

A heavy man with blue-tinted hair and a dark blue shirt leans on the windowsill outside, peering in as Homer gestures and talks, then stands with his hands on his hips. Corn-patterned curtains, a dish rack and a faucet are visible at the sink. > Now, don't say that. > Alcohol is a way of life. > Alcohol is my way of life, and I aim to keep it. > Sounds like you have a plan.

The scene moves to the living room, where Bart Simpson, the spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt, is upside down with his legs in the air beside a purple lamp and a side table, while Homer stands by the brown couch watching him. Bart then shifts his head and arms, staying upside down, as Homer looks on. > Maybe I do. > Come on, boy.

Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants, stands in the pink living room by the brown couch with his hand at his mouth while Bart hangs upside down beside a side table holding a lamp and telephone. The room is then left empty, showing the sailboat painting, the purple table and the colorful rug. > where a mysterious person in black keeps a solitary vigil. > I got it! We're going out, Marge!

Bart grips a shovel-like tool over his shoulder while Homer holds a long wooden staff, and the two face each other as Homer talks and gestures, first with his hand raised, then with his arm moving toward Bart while he looks stern. Bart listens with wide eyes as the moon hangs above the scrap heaps. > Whoa, bonanza! > Let's load it up before the rats regroup. > Right. Now remember, don't mention this to anyone. > Not your mother, not Rex Banner, not anyone.

Afterward Homer walks off with Bart, and the trailer's rear door is closed with a license plate reading 13F23. The trailer is then hitched to a pink car, which drives through a forest under a full moon with a figure at the wheel. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/621663.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/624999 ## 10:29–10:41 Homer, bald with stubble and a white shirt, and Bart, the spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt, sit in a pink car at night, Homer gripping the steering wheel while Bart talks and then raises a finger. A bullet-like crack spiderwebs across the rear-view mirror area of the windshield as Homer grimaces and clutches the wheel. Behind them, a white truck labeled "LI'L LUGGER" with an orange stripe pulls ahead on a dark road, while a police car with flashing lights and a man in a hat leaning out of the window aims a gun toward them. > Rex Banner, what a dope. Yeah, look at him trying to aim that stupid gun. > Hang on, son!

Bart waves one arm and Homer grips the steering wheel with wide eyes as leaves swirl around them past gravestones and pine trees. The car then drives along an iron fence, with the trailer's partly visible 'LUGGA...' lettering showing, and finally pulls away across an open grassy field under the moon. > Dad, knocking over grapestone is bad luck. > Really? > I heard good.

Marge stands on a dark blue street near a pink car with its hood up and a white Li'l Lugger moving van parked behind it, and Homer leans out of the driver's door. Marge turns and looks toward the car, gesturing with one hand, then stands with her arms folded and a stern expression as Homer approaches. Homer raises his fists in agitation, then steps forward and points at Marge while gesturing with his other hand in a heated argument in front of the pale green and purple house. > What happened to you, Homer? And what have you done to the car? > Nothing. > I don't think it had broken axes before. > Before, before. > You're living in the past, Marge. Quit living in the past.

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, holds a laundry basket at a brown door labeled with signs reading "DO NOT ENTER," "NO ENTRE," "N'ENTREZPAS," "EINGANG VERBOTEN" and a Chinese warning. Then Homer, bald in a white shirt, and Bart, in an orange shirt, come through an arched doorway into the pink room, Homer carrying bowling balls while Bart holds one. > That's funny. > I used to be able to go down there. > Going bowling, not back revenge stats. Why do you have so many bowling balls?

Homer Simpson, bald and wearing a white shirt, faces her while clutching a stack of black bowling balls against his chest, looking nervous and speechless. Marge turns her back and glances up toward the doorway, then turns back to face Homer with a stern, skeptical glare. Notable objects include the bowling balls, the laundry basket, and the arched doorway with its signs. > Oh... I'm not gonna lie to you, Marge. > So long!

Homer, in a white shirt and blue trousers, swings his arm as his bowling ball rolls down the lane and drops into the gutter, while a scoreboard under the SIMPSONS and BOWLARAMA headings fills with mostly empty circles. Bart's spiky head peeks out behind Homer as he stands at the lane. > Aw, rats, another gutter ball. > Gee, Homer, you sure do suck tonight.

Homer stands with his hands on his hips while Bart sits on a bench-like seat by the scoring console, and Bart's mouth opens as he speaks while Homer gazes ahead and then looks over with a smirk. In the final moment, a dark grey bowling ball rolls down a lane toward ten white pins, with a scoreboard reading 18 above the lane. > Yeah, suck like a fox.

It falls past pipes and lands in a pool of blue water on a wooden lattice platform, with no on-screen text.

Behind them, a mustached man in dark glasses and a blue jacket and a Black man in a green sweater look on, with a tall-haired blonde figure partly visible between them. Visible details include a 'Duff Beer' sign, an orange 'Atoms' pennant, a 'Springfield Isotopes' pennant, bottles on the shelves, a cash register, and a row of empty glasses. > Here you go, Bond. That'll be 45 bucks. 45 bucks?!

Behind him a crowd of patrons watches, including a man in a grey suit with his back turned and a blond man in a green sweater, and a Springfield Isotopes pennant and Duff Beer sign hang on the wall. In the last moment Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a bow tie and apron, holds a banknote and a bowling ball while Barney reaches his hand across the bar toward him. > Well, this better be the best tasting beer in the world! > You got lucky.

Homer first holds a black ball by a ball-return machine, then fans out a stack of green bills and counts them while Bart sits behind a wooden counter under a machine with two round lights. Later Homer stands with his hands at his waist and smiles while Bart slumps with his chin in his hand beside the counter. > You see, boy, the real money's in bootlegging, > not in your childish vandalism. > Oh, so many wasted nights.

In front of him is a banana split topped with whipped cream, a cherry, chocolate sauce, and two small American flags, with sparklers fizzing on either side; he purses his lips and looks down at it while the officers watch, and his hand drifts toward the dish. > What's the matter, chief? > Yeah, you barely touched your banana kaboom. > This isn't a very happy birthday for Rex Banner.

The man in the fedora holds up a newspaper with the headline "Death Panel Beats Panel" while Barney leans over it, jabs toward it, then waves both hands in the air as the paper is lowered onto the table. The scene opens on a close-up of a Springfield Daily News front page reading "Beer Baron Beats Banner" and "Family Sedan Outruns Cops" with a 35 cent price. > And that's the way they play it.

A man in a brown fedora and brown suit steps in close, grabs the front of Barney's shirt and glares into his face while Barney glances nervously sideways. The storefronts, a blue building and the electric cracks across the sky stay visible throughout as the confrontation tightens. > Hello, fishies! > Listen, Rummy, I'm gonna say it plain and simple. > Where'd you pinch the hooch? Is some blind tiger jerking suds on the side? > Yes?

The lit windows, pink front door, pink garage door, green tree, wooden fence and mailbox stay unchanged throughout, with no visible movement. Nothing happens beyond the still view of the house and its driveway. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/781406.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/780989 ## 13:01–13:10 Homer, a bald heavy man in a white shirt and blue pants, pushes a red wheelbarrow full of black bowling balls across a pink room while Bart, a spiky-haired boy in an orange shirt, stands nearby holding one ball. Homer first stands still beside the wheelbarrow with a worried look, then grips the handles and starts rolling it forward, with Bart partly hidden behind the load. Soon Marge, with a tall blue beehive and a long green dress, and Lisa, in a red dress with a pearl necklace, appear in the doorway and the room. The wheelbarrow tips over, spilling bowling balls across the brown floor as Homer and Bart look on, and a yellow puddle spreads beside it. Background details include a wall sconce, a piano with a red lamp, and framed pictures. > Wait a minute. > I forgot to make sure the coast was clear. > Ah, it's probably clear. Let's go.

A red bowling ball chair lies tipped over beside a puddle of spilled beer on the carpet, with two bowling balls on the floor. Homer's mouth opens wide and he grimaces and tilts his head, then he clutches the ball to his belly, while Marge gestures with an outstretched arm toward him and the children stare wide-eyed. > Beer! > I can explain, Marge. Please let me explain. > Oh, why won't you let me explain? > You're the one the papers have been talking about.

Homer clutches a bowling ball and gestures at it with his free hand while Bart holds a second ball, and Marge and Lisa look on. Behind them a red armchair lies tipped over on its side beside bowling balls and a dark puddle on the floor, under a wall-mounted lamp. > That mysterious beer baron who's been supplying Springfield with alcohol. > How have you been getting away with this? > Well, and I can explain, remember? > I fill the balls with beer that I found at the dump, > and then I bowl them and some underground pipes take them into mowers.

The view widens to the living room, where Marge in a green dress gestures outward beside Lisa in her red dress, while Homer holds a bowling ball and Bart in his orange shirt watches. An overturned red armchair, scattered bowling balls, and a dark puddle lie on the floor, and a pink wall lamp hangs behind them. > Homer, that's very clever. > Huh? Mom? > Well, it is. I've known your father since high school, > and this is the cleverest thing he's ever done. > Besides, he's only breaking a silly 200-year-old law.

Marge, first with half-closed eyes, opens them wide and glances sideways, then gives Homer a wary look as he keeps showing off the money. Lisa, with her spiky hair and pearl necklace, appears at the right in a room with a pink wall, a purple cabinet, and a framed picture, her mouth open in a frown. > It is silly, Marge. And look at all the money I'm making. > Ooh! > Mom, prohibition may be unpopular, but it's the law, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/822697.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/826868 ## 13:52–14:03 Homer, Marge, Lisa and Bart stand in a pink living room beside a tipped red wheelbarrow with bowling balls and a brown puddle on the floor, Homer and Marge pointing while Bart raises an arm. Next, at a bar with a Duff Beer sign, Moe, the grey-haired bartender, polishes a glass as Barney, a heavy man in a blue sweater and striped pants, leans on the counter. Moe then raps his knuckles near a small window in a red door, peering through it at a man's glaring eye, while a man in a brown jacket stands at the left edge. > and we still have to go to your room, Lisa. > Open up, Curly. This is a raid.

A face peers through a small slot in the door, its eyes widening and then sinking out of view as the figure ducks back. The scene then shifts to a bar, where Moe, the grey-haired bartender in an apron and suspenders, reaches up to a small panel in a red door as two patrons with beer mugs look on, and he later holds a long metal pole in his other hand. > A raid? > Curly?

The scene shifts to a shop-like area with shelves, a rabbit in a tank, a parrot in a cage, and lobsters in a tank, as Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a blue apron, stands by a red door with his hand at his chin and gestures toward it while a man in a blue jacket and green sweater holds a drink nearby. > neighborhood pet shop.

The man walks forward into the crowded bar, with the officers following close behind, and stops in the middle of the room with his hands on his hips while the patrons with beer mugs look on. Moe stands aside near the door, and a Duff Beer sign and pennants on the wall are visible. > Pet shop, eh? > Well, I just have one question.

The man in the fedora jabs a finger toward Moe's face, then turns away, and Moe scratches his head and folds his arms with a sour, sideways look. The scene takes place in a doorway with a red partial "CIG" sign on the right. > What kind of pet shop is filled with rambunctious yahoos and hot jazz music at 1 a.m.? > Um, uh... > The best damn pet shop in town!

The man steps forward slightly, then speaks with his mouth open and squints sideways at the crowd, with the crowd still holding its mugs and the 'Cigar' sign visible on a machine behind them. > All right, but you people remember. > Baby turtles and alligators may seem like a cute idea for a pet, but they grow up.

The man in the hat walks through the doorway into a back room as Moe watches with a smirk, and a cigarette machine labeled CIGARS sits nearby. Barney, the heavy man with messy brown hair in a torn, stained shirt, sits on a red bar stool holding a mug of beer while a woman with glasses in an orange top holds another mug nearby. > Let's go, boys! > Wow! > Those gears down there really hurt!

He rests his hand on the railing and turns his head, then in close-up he glowers sideways beneath the hat brim, his mouth opening as he speaks and then settling into a tight, grim frown. Nothing on screen shows text. > You're out there somewhere, Beer Baron, and I'll find you. > No, you won't.

Afterward, Homer, bald in a white shirt and blue pants, walks along the front path of the tan two-story Simpson house with its brown roof and arched door, passing a parked pink car and a blue mailbox. > Yes, I will. > Won't. > Daitline, Springfield, the elusive Beer Baron, continue to thumb his nose at authorities.

A dark staircase sits in the background wall next to a puddle of spilled beer. Homer stands swaggering with a fist raised and then with hands on his hips, while Bart sits at the bowling balls and drinks through a funnel and a long curly tube that leads from a cup. Homer's black shoes and blue trousers are seen first near the stairs, showing him walking into the scene. > Swaggering about in a garish new hat, he seemed to say, look at me, Rex Benner, > I have a new hat. > Hey, boy, get crackin'. Mo up his order to 20 balls a night. > Uh, Dad. Call me beer baron. All the beer from the landfill is gone, beer baron.

Stacked bowling balls sit on shelves and atop a yellow washing machine, and wooden barrels lie tipped over on a floor splattered with yellow liquid. Later, a thin, moustached man with a bow tie, who looks like Moe, bursts up through a hatch at the top of a staircase with arms spread wide, while Homer stares at him with his hands clasped at his waist. > We're out of business. > But I can't be out of beer. I'm the beer baron. > Homer, my customers are sobering up, and they ain't gonna stick around for the ambiance.

Homer, in a brown fedora, white shirt and blue pants, stands in a back room lined with shelves and bowling balls, then grins and gestures toward a red box on a shelf. Bart, in an orange shirt and blue shorts, stands beside Homer and watches. Homer then turns to the viewer holding a cardboard tube with a fuse-like tip while Moe's point of view stays in the foreground, and the scene ends with Homer standing with one hand on his hip. > They gotta get me more beer. > Sorry, I'm all out. Oh, how about some turpentine? > Or caulk? > Delicious caulk. Look, find it, buy it, make it.

The scene moves to the outside of the Houseware Warehouse, whose sign reads "Your Super Super-Store Store" above parked cars, and then inside, where Homer stands at a wooden checkout counter under a hanging BATHROOMS sign beside a grey-haired clerk in an orange vest, with bathtubs, toilets, and towels displayed around them. > I don't care. Just get me some booze and fast. > Make it, eh? > Forty-two bathtubs, please. > You know, they're fifty for three thousand dollars today.

The scene cuts to a dark, lit-up two-story house with a pink garage door and a mailbox. Homer and Bart then work at a row of clawfoot tubs labeled GIN, BEER, COGNAC and 12 YEAR OLD SCOTCH, with Homer pouring from a copper still, while Marge and Lisa watch from behind a velvet rope in the foreground. > I said forty-two.

Lisa, in an orange skirt with a pearl necklace, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stand on a wooden staircase behind them watching. Homer first stirs with a relaxed, smiling look, then gazes off to the side with his mouth open while still holding the paddle. Later he stands with one hand on his hip and looks down at the tub while Bart, beside him, stares up at his father. Pipes, a water heater, and a green bin line the walls, and a wooden ceiling with a lightning-shaped crack overhead completes the scene. > Now you're making your own alcohol? > That's even more illegal than what you were doing before. > Remember, honey, we're disobeying an unjust law here. > We're patriots. Like all those people in jail.

The patrons turn excited, throwing up their fists and cheering under the EXIT sign and Go Topes and Isotopes pennants, then Moe moves the ball closer to the bar and a tall, yellow-haired woman in a green shirt grins beside him. The scene ends with a close-up of Moe scowling against a red striped background. > Who wants a bathtub mint julep?

Before this, men in white suits crowd a bar beneath orange Springfield Atoms pennants, one raising a hand and another pointing a finger, and the man in the fedora clenches his fist as he approaches. > Mm-hmm. > Are you the beer baron?

Two uniformed police officers stand nearby as the fedora man gestures with a raised hand, then grabs the front of a heavy, bald man with a ponytail and blue shirt, who shuts his eyes and grimaces. The scene shifts between these figures as the fedora man keeps a firm hold on each of them in turn. > I plead dildidl-dildy as charrediddlyard. > He's not the baron, but he sounds drunk. > Take him in. > Are you the beer baron? > Yes, but only by night.

The fedora man then walks alongside him as Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants, and Bart, in an orange shirt, stroll past in the foreground. A red wagon loaded with sacks labeled BARLEY SOUR MASH and a jar of TEQUILA WORMS sits near the heavy man, and the building shows the number 107. > I'm a mild-mannered reporter for a major metropolitan newspaper. > Don't crack wise with me, Tubby. > Tubby?

Bart holds the GIN sign while Homer, holding a tube, stares in shock with his mouth wide open; then both stand at the foot of a wooden staircase, gaping in alarm. Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green outfit, comes down the stairs toward them, reaching out with a worried expression as Homer and Bart look on. > What on earth happened down there? > One of the stills...

The scene then cuts to the Simpson house, a pale green two-story home with a pink garage door and a white car parked in the driveway. Inside the bedroom, Homer, wearing glasses and reading a green book, sits beside Marge, whose tall blue beehive rests against a pillow as she holds a magazine. In the last moments, Homer lowers his glasses and looks toward Marge with a strained grin while she gazes sideways, with framed portraits of the family on the pink wall behind them. > Uh, nothing, March. I think it must have been that bean I had for dinner. > Kaboom blammo! Excuse me again dear. > Homer, there's no point in pretending you're making those noises.

Homer, bald with a blue collared shirt, lies propped against the pillows beside her, mouth wide open with eyes bulging as he shouts. A purple bedpost, a lampshade on the right, and a picture of a sleeping girl on the wall complete the room. > Your homemade liquor is exploding again. > What dear? > Kablammo! Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1059392.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1062103 ## 17:45–17:52 Homer, the bald, heavy man in a light blue shirt, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and pink top, sit side by side in a bed with purple headboard and blue pillows in a pink bedroom. Framed pictures of Lisa and Maggie hang on the wall behind them. Homer glances sideways with a flat, skeptical look while Marge turns toward him and speaks with her mouth open, then Marge's expression shifts to wide-eyed and talkative as she keeps addressing him. Homer's gaze stays fixed to the side, and Marge's head tilts slightly as she continues talking, with the bedcovers and a lamp shade visible at the edge of the scene. > You made some money and had the fun of being a wanted criminal. > Why not quit now while you're ahead? > Boom.

Homer then gets out of bed in blue pajamas and walks across the red rug toward the doorway, leaving Marge alone reading with the bed covers pulled up. The room stays still apart from their movements, with a small alarm clock on the nightstand and a lamp on each side of the bed. In the final moment Marge is shown sliding down under the covers and reaching toward the lamp, and the bed is empty of Homer, who has gone. > I'll be right back. > Ah!

The figure staggers, then moves right, reeling from the burst and drifting across the floor. It finally tumbles and lies sprawled on its back in the middle of the floor as the spiky burst fades, while Marge's eyes shift toward it. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1084000.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1086502 ## 18:10–18:17 Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and pink dress, stands in the foreground looking on as Homer Simpson, small and bald in a white shirt, sprawls on a blue carpeted floor in front of a dark street with lane markings. Homer shifts and wobbles, pushing up onto his hands and knees and then sinking back down, while small pink motion marks flicker around him. The yellow doorframe edges frame the scene. > I thought about what you said, honey, and I've decided to quit.

Chief Wiggum, a heavy police chief with blue hair and a torn, bloodstained blue uniform with a badge and red-and-white striped pants, steps up to him and points a silver revolver. Homer halts beside a pink building with a glass door, scowling and gripping the cash, then turns to face the gun while Wiggum stands his ground. > Oh, well. > Fun's over. But I still have my wonderful money. > Stick him up! > Geez, what happened to you, Wiggum? You look terrible. > Ah, never mind how I look. You gonna give me the money or not? > Well, I don't think so.

Wiggum lifts his free hand to the top of his head, then glares and points the gun toward Homer, who looks on warily. Wiggum then raises the revolver high above his head while Homer watches, his mouth open. > You don't even have a trigger on that thing. > Yeah, to sell the trigger. Most of the handle to feed my family. > Come on, give me the dough. > I can throw this pretty hard.

Wiggum, in a blue uniform with a badge and red-and-white striped trousers, droops with a sullen expression while Homer looks over at him with a worried face. Homer then turns toward the door, clasping his hands together and looking anxious. > Poor Wiggum. > I'll bet you really hate Rex Manor, huh? > Um, who? The guy who took your job. Oh, yeah.

Wiggum starts with a half-lidded, unimpressed look, then clenches his fist and grimaces with clenched teeth. Homer speaks, then breaks into a sly smile while Wiggum, eyes half-closed, lifts a yellow hand toward Homer's chest. > More than anything in the world. > Hey, how would you like to show him up by beating him at his own game?

A crowd of people in the foreground raises their arms and bobs them, and a sign on a stick at the left edge shifts its position. The setting is a stone building with white columns and tall glass doors. > I'm happy to report that the flow of illegal liquor seems to have dried up. > Public drunkenness has ceased, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1137803.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1140097 ## 19:03–19:15 A scowling man in a brown fedora and brown suit stands at a wooden podium draped with Channel 6 microphones, first gritting his teeth, then raising an index finger, then leaning on the podium with both hands while he speaks. Behind him, a large crowd of one-off townspeople with raised fists and open mouths cheers in front of a street lined with shops and a diner sign reading 'Diner'. > and those mysterious liquor clouds over Evergreen Terrace are gone. > People, Rex Banner has won your war against alcohol! > What about the beer baron?

He grips the podium with clenched fists, scowls, and then raises one fist and leans forward, mouth open as he speaks sharply to the press. The scene is an indoor news conference in front of a grey panelled wall and a window. > The idea that someone like that could operate under my very nose is laughable.

He talks animatedly with his mouth open and fists clenched, then breaks into a broad, toothy grin while gesturing forward with one fist. His expression then sharpens into a narrow-eyed, gritted-teeth scowl as he keeps his fists pressed on the podium. > Well, you all know what laughter sounds like. > We now go live to Evergreen Terrace, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1163663.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1166165 ## 19:29–19:39 Kent Brockman, the grey-haired news anchor in a red jacket and blue tie, speaks into a microphone on a building's steps while two uniformed police officers stand behind him. He raises a clenched fist to his temple, eyes wide and then squinting as he grimaces and talks. Next, a crowd of townspeople on a busy street lined with shopfronts, including a diner, stares and shouts, and a man in a brown fedora and brown suit faces news microphones marked CHANNEL with a stern, skeptical look. > where I am informed that former police chief Wiggum has captured the beer baron. > A captured Homer? > Then the liquor-filled bowling balls traveled through a network of underground pipes Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1170753.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1174715 ## 19:39–19:53 Chief Wiggum, the fat police chief in a blue uniform and cap, stands at the center of a cluttered room with pipes and a water heater, surrounded by reporters holding microphones. Homer, bald and in a white shirt with arms folded, stands at the right, while a slick-haired man in a purple suit smiles at the left and a reddish-haired man in a dark suit is partly visible at the right edge. Wiggum gestures with a pointing finger and speaks with a wide-eyed, worried expression, then settles into a calm stare as Homer's face shifts into a broad, pleased grin. > finally emerging at a nearby speakeasy. > You forgot one thing, Wiggum. > Yeah, what's that?

The scene then cuts to a balding older man in a brown hat, round glasses, red bow tie and suspenders, reading aloud from a long unrolled scroll in the foreground. Behind him a police officer in a blue cap and uniform stands near a wooden catapult where Homer sits in a basket beside a figure tied up with rope, with a statue and a town street in the background. > But what's going to happen to you? > Oh, probably just a slap on the wrist. > And he who shall violate this law shall be punished by catapults.

Chief Wiggum, in his blue police uniform, stands at the platform's edge gesturing and talking while officers look on, and a man in a brown coat, grey vest and fedora clenches his fist beside a wooden structure. A 'Barber Shop' sign is visible among the storefronts behind the catapult. > Last time I helped you. > Sorry, I thought you'd get a fine, or at most three, four years in jail. > Hold it. > This machine is two centuries old. > Better test it first.

Snowball II, the white cat, then sits in the tub as onlookers stand around it, and the view widens to show a large wooden contraption on a town square with a crowd gathered below. Homer ends up lying on the wooden platform while Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stands beside a policeman, a man in a brown fedora and suit, and Chief Wiggum in uniform. > No. > Okay, go ahead. > Wait! > Wait, you can't do this! > All my husband did was violate a law that doesn't make sense.

She gestures expansively with her arms, at times extending both arms wide, reaching toward the old man, and resting one hand on her hip while she talks. Behind them are storefronts, including a pink building and a sign with partially visible lettering reading "OFF". > Now, I'll admit car crashes and fist fights have been down recently, > but prohibition has cost us our freedom.

A man in a brown fedora and brown suit steps forward, first pointing his finger toward Marge and then clenching his fist and gesturing while officers look on, as a crowd watches from below the platform. Behind them a partly visible sign reads "...US" in front of a building, and a large wooden barrel hangs above. > Our freedom to drink! > Now, hold on a minute, Missy. > It's not up to us to choose which laws we want to obey. > If it were, I'd kill everyone who looked at me cock-eyed. > Our laws are in place for a reason.

A crowd of townspeople gathers in a town square, and a man with brown hair and a purple suit and blue tie looks sideways as a large wooden catapult sits in the middle of the square. Storefronts, including The Android's Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop, and a parked purple car line the street. > Send them back to Mama Boy. > That was unexpected. > Well, reset the catapult and let's get this over with.

A stooped old man in a bow tie, suspenders and a flat cap unrolls a long parchment scroll and reads from it, pointing with his finger, while a crowd watches from below. Pink and yellow storefronts, a GAS sign, a statue and a wooden pillory-like frame with a barrel on top make up the background. > Wait. > I've discovered more lines on the parchment. > It says that the prohibition law, which was passed here 200 years ago, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1263971.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1267933 ## 21:13–21:18 Chief Wiggum, the heavyset police chief in his blue uniform and cap, stands on a wooden boardwalk in a small town street while an elderly one-off man in a straw hat, red bow tie and suspenders unrolls and reads a long parchment scroll. A younger one-off man in a purple suit and blue tie steps in beside the elderly man, both looking down at the scroll; the elderly man gestures with a raised finger while the suited man grips the scroll with a tense, gritted-teeth expression. Behind them are pastel storefronts, including a pink shop with a partly visible sign reading "Ship's D...", and a green-awninged shop on the left. > was repealed 199 years ago. > Release the prisoner!

In the first frame, Homer is kneeling on the wooden ground with his hands behind his back while two police officers, one a fat police chief with a cap and the other a Black officer holding rope, restrain him. Next, Marge in a green dress and blue beehive hugs Homer in front of a storefront reading 'Convenience Plus,' with the gavel looming overhead. Then a man in a purple suit with slicked-back dark hair and a blue tie, who looks like a city official, grins beside the embracing couple, and Homer's expression turns uneasy. Finally, Homer and Marge stand side by side with Marge's hand on his shoulder while the grinning man in the purple suit stands to their right, with the gavel and the 'Convenience Plus' sign still behind them. > On behalf of the city, > I'd like to apologize and ask how long it will take for you to flood this town with booze Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1280029.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1282740 ## 21:26–21:34 Homer, in his white shirt, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green dress with red beads, stand with a man in a purple suit and blue tie in front of a large wooden barrel structure beside a street with a sign reading "EON SHOP". Marge clings to Homer's shoulder while he grins, then Homer and Marge clasp hands as the purple-suited man smiles, and in the last moment an older grey-haired man in a dark jacket and green shirt, holding a cigar, leans in with his arm around the purple-suited man's shoulders. > again. > Well, sorry. > I'm not in that business anymore. > Four minutes. > And so, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E18/1287745.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e18-homer-vs-the-eighteenth-amendment/1290456 ## 21:34–21:43 A dense crowd of Springfield townspeople raises frothy beer mugs in a busy street lined with brick and stone buildings, with the caption FIVE MINUTES LATER across the lower part of the early scene. A bald man in a blue shirt and cap, a tall beehive-haired woman, and a figure in a green sweater stand among the revellers, while a man in a bee costume with black antennae stands in the middle of the crowd beside a red-bearded man with a moustache and glasses. Figures on balconies and rooftops wave and cheer, and a large silver beer tank sits on a truck near the crowd. In the final moment, the same crowd, now with Moe the grey-haired bartender near barrels, gathers outside a bar with a sign reading PAV, as several people hold up beer mugs and a stout bald man with glasses and a red sweater looks on. > one town's brief flirtation with prohibition ended in a joyous remarriage to Lady Liquor. > Congratulations, Springfield!

He raises a mug high, lowers it slightly, then tips it to his mouth and drinks as the crowd lifts their mugs in the air. The gathering includes a grey-haired man with glasses on the left and a man with messy brown hair on the right. > the cause of and solution to all of life's problems.

A crowd of cheering people below, several with raised beer mugs, surrounds the barrels, and a man in a blue shirt on the left raises his arm. The scene then goes to black with gold credits: first 'Executive Producers BILL OAKLEY & JOSH WEINSTEIN', then 'Executive Producers JAMES L.
