The scene opens from black onto drifting clouds in a blue sky, with the yellow title text "THE SIMPSONS" over them, before moving to the driveway in front of the yellow house with its open garage, where a bicycle, cardboard boxes and a blue mailbox sit on the lawn.

The television in the foreground then shows the on-screen title card "CREATED BY MATT GROENING", which is replaced by "DEVELOPED BY JAMES L. BROOKS MATT GROENING SAM SIMON" on its blue screen.

The scene opens on a black screen, then fades in on the exterior of the Simpson house at sunset, with a pink sky, a large yellow sun behind the trees, a closed garage door, a pink front door, and a mailbox at the edge of the driveway. The house stays still for the rest of the moment, with no visible movement or on-screen text.

In the first frame she lies under the covers with her eyes closed, then in the next frames she sits up with her eyes open and looks to the side. She then leans over to the left edge of the bed and reaches toward the side, while white text reading 'Co-Executive Producer' with a name below it is overlaid on the lower part of the scene.

Bart slumps with his head on the armrest, then sits upright and covers his face with his hand while Homer slouches back, rubbing his face, before Bart hops off the couch and Homer stands as Marge, with her tall blue beehive, appears at the right edge. Credits read 'Supervising Producer' followed by Jonathan Collier, Ken Keeler, and David S. Cohen. > And now, the thrilling conclusion of Colonel Dracula joins the Navy. > Uh, Colonel? > Blurr!

The scene then moves to a kitchen, where a young girl with spiky hair in a blue dress holds a red soda can in one hand and a green bottle in the other, raising them beside large dark trash bags and a metal trash can. On-screen credits for Richard Appel, Ian Maxtone-Graham and Dan McGrath appear over the scene. > Lisa, what in the heck are you doing? > Oh, it's for my Junior Achievers Club. We're trying to earn money by recycling.

The group stays mostly still at first, with Bart raising his arms, then Maggie is set down and crawls toward Lisa while Marge leans forward. In the final moment Marge is at the counter in a pink robe and yellow gloves, placing a red dish rack of plates by the sink, with a paper towel roll and a curtain printed with carrots and a green-and-orange pattern behind her. Yellow on-screen credits in the first two moments read Consulting Producer David Mirkin and Consultant John Swartzwelder. > Well, recycling is useless, Lisa. > Once the sun burns out, this planet is doomed. > You're just making sure we spend our last days using inferior products. > Well, I think it's a great idea.

Lisa, in a green shirt, sits at the front holding a white plastic six-pack ring, and Bart, in an orange shirt, stands beside her. In the first frames Lisa gestures with open arms over a pile of green garbage bags, then she holds the plastic ring up to her mouth while Marge gestures with her arms outstretched in front of a pink window with a corn-patterned curtain. Bart stands with a flat expression while Lisa, now talking with the ring in hand, looks at him, and in the final frame Bart has half-closed eyes and Lisa looks off to the side with the ring held in front of her. The room has purple cabinets, a checkered floor, and a sink under the window. > Mom, Mom, you're mixing polyethylene with polyurethane. > Marge! Well, I'm sorry. > And you have to cut these up first. Otherwise, animals get caught in them. > Only the stupid ones. I could still use more paper.

Homer first gestures with both hands while Marge, with her tall blue beehive, Bart in his orange shirt, and Maggie with her pacifier and blue bow look on, and Maggie is then seen at the edge. Homer then turns away and hugs a stack of books, including one titled with the word 'Encyclopedia' on its purple spine, while a green garbage bag sits on the floor. Lisa, arms outstretched, reacts to him as he walks in front of the kitchen counter with the microwave and coffee maker, and at the end Homer's back is turned as Lisa gestures toward a green washing machine and a woman's hat on the right. On-screen text reads 'Produced by Richard Raynis', then 'David Silverman', then 'Richard Sakai Denise Sirkot' as the credits roll. > Hey, I know where there's lots of paper. > Dad, you're not supposed to have fun recycling. > This is serious.

The scene then cuts to a title card reading "Written by John Swartzwelder" over a yellow school building with an American flag. Next, a one-off character, a man with swept brown hair and a purple shirt, stands before a hang-gliding poster captioned "I'M HIGH..." and slides a marker along a large thermometer labeled ALBANY. > Oh, okay. > What a load of garbage. > I'm ecstatic. With the money from this, > we're within striking distance of our trip to Albany.

Beside a large round scale reading up to 45, a man in a purple shirt with short brown hair looks around, mouth open, then grins and glances sideways in front of a blue poster reading "I'M HIGH... CAPITALI..." showing a hang glider. The scene then cuts to an empty brown door with a frosted glass window and a silver knob. > Now, let's give a big Junior Achievers welcome to our guest speaker. > I know he can teach us a lot about business, Mr. > C. Montgomery Burns.

Under the banner reading "JUNIOR ACHIEVERS CLUB", with posters reading "UP... WITH BUSINESS!" and "I'M HIGH... ON CAPITALISM!" and a wall clock behind, Burns shifts from clasped hands to pointing a finger as the purple-shirted man raises a hand and steps forward and back. The group stays in place throughout as the speakers alternate and Burns makes his emphatic gestures. > I'll keep it short and sweet. > Family, religion, friendship. > These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business.

Over five moments he raises one hand with fingers spread, then gestures with both hands, puts a hand on his hip, and finally presses his fingertips together in front of his chest. Behind him is a blue poster reading "I'M H..." and "ON CAP..." showing an orange airplane on a cloud, with a round wall dial marked 15, 20, 25, 30 on the left. > When opportunity knocks, > you don't want to be driving to the maternity hospital or sitting in some phony baloney > church or synagogue. > Questions?

Seated in the audience, a man in a purple shirt raises one hand high, then talks and rests his hand on his chin, while a boy with dark curly hair and red glasses in a green shirt and a blond boy in a white shirt and red shorts look on. The man in purple then reaches toward the blond boy's shoulder as the group keeps watching. > Well, I'm going to take advantage of this rare opportunity, > even if you children aren't interested. > Which do you think is more important, hard work or stick-to-itiveness?

WITH BUSINESS! and I'M HIGH... ON CAPITALISM!, while Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, stands at left beside a pile of dirt-like mound and a dial gauge. Seated children watch from wooden chairs in the foreground, including Lisa with her hand raised. Burns gestures with an open hand, then in close-up he clasps his hands together and looks sideways with a worried expression beside the hang glider poster and the gauge. The moment ends with a blue dictionary tilting against a black background. > Are there any real questions? > Yes. > Does your plant have a recycling program? > Recycling?

The scene then shows them in an office beside a blue poster reading 'M HIGH' and 'APITAL', where Burns, in a dark suit and black tie, rests a hand on his chest and leans forward toward Lisa, who stands at the right with her back partly turned and holds a brown object at the bottom of the scene. > I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that term, you adorable little ragamuffin.

Lisa, in an orange dress and pearl necklace, sits in the middle of the row with a tense, grinning expression, and Milhouse, with blue hair and glasses, sits at the right beside a boy in a white shirt and a boy with glasses in a brown vest. Lisa's eyes dart upward and she grimaces, then she stretches both arms out sideways toward the seated children while her hands stay outstretched and she keeps her strained smile. > Hm. You never heard of recycling? > It means to reuse things to conserve our natural resources.

Burns starts with his hands on his hips in a dark green suit and black tie, then scowls and jabs a finger toward Lisa while gesturing with his other hand, next clasps his hands together near his chin with a wide-eyed, anxious expression, and finally grins with his fingers pressed together in front of him. Notable on-screen elements are the poster's bold lettering and the hang glider illustration, with Lisa's chair visible in the foreground in the first moment. > Oh, so Mother Nature needs a favor. > Well, > maybe she should have thought of that when she was besetting us with droughts and floods > and poisoned monkeys. Nature started the fight for survival, > and now she wants to quit because she's losing, well, I say, hard cheese.

Burns then grimaces in close-up beside a hang glider poster reading "I'M HIGH..." as Smithers, in glasses and a purple bow tie, talks with his mouth open and Burns grips his shoulder. Smithers keeps speaking and rubs his chin, with a school bus picture on the wall beside him. > But nature's not our enemy. > Well, surely you agree we can do without her. > No, I don't agree. > No? > How dare you question Mr. Burns. > I'll handle it, Smithers.

CAPITA' poster on the wall. Burns gestures with his hands and speaks to Lisa, who sits on a wooden chair and looks up at him. Lisa then turns to face the viewer with wide eyes and an open mouth, and a boy with spiky blond hair and a blue shirt and an older man with a moustache, glasses and a white shirt sit nearby. Lisa then reaches up and holds a book titled 'Will There Ever Be a Rainbow?' by C. M. Burns, which shows a picture of Burns, while the boy holds the other side of the book. > Shut up, little girl. > If I had spent my life listening to dismal Doras like you, > I wouldn't be worth $200 million today. > But according to your most recent biography, you only have $100 million today.

Burns first stares sideways with narrowed eyes and a pursed mouth, then leans in toward Smithers, who looks flustered, speaks, and spreads his yellow hands out at his sides. Nearby on the walls are a purple poster reading "UP" with a hot air balloon, a second poster reading "...WITH BUS...", and a large round clock face. > I've... I've... > Um, actually, sir, it's considerably less than that.

Audience members, including Lisa and a blue-haired boy with glasses like Milhouse, sit watching in a room with a 'JUNIOR ACHIEVERS CLUB' banner, posters reading 'UP... WITH BUSINESS!' and 'I'M HIGH... ON CAPITALISM!', and a large dial scale above the money. Later, an unnamed man in a purple shirt stands by the scale and gestures toward it as the others watch. > I, um, have to go. > Money Burns, everybody!

Burns first clasps his hands on the desk, then lifts one hand in a gesture as he speaks, while Smithers leans slightly toward him and smiles. Stacks of cardboard boxes sit on the red carpet, and a framed portrait hangs on the wall behind them. > I've called you all here because I need some honest answers. > What is my current financial situation? Great, great. > I hear great. All right, well, let's have a look at my stock portfolio.

One of the men holds a dark folder and the group stares silently toward the desk, with a wall clock and a portrait of Burns on the wall behind them. Burns then leafs through a stack of papers and stock certificates, and Smithers, in a green jacket, purple bow tie and name badge, leans in beside the desk, holding documents and talking as Burns smiles. > Hmm. > Confederated Slave Holdings, how's that doing? > It's, uh... steady. > I'm sure all your stocks are doing well, sir. > After all, you chose them. Mm-hmm.

The scene then narrows to Burns and Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, wearing an olive jacket, purple bow tie and ID badge, standing beside the desk. Burns raises and lowers the folder, grinning and glancing over it, as Smithers looks on, with loose papers and stock certificates spread on the desk and a red telephone and a green stack of papers nearby. > Mm. Well, let's get out the old stock ticker and have a look.

Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, then takes over in a dark blue suit and black tie, gripping the thick beige cable beside a wooden door with a keyhole and a large tangled pile of the same cable at left. He pulls and fiddles with the cable, grimacing and grinning, then his eyes widen as he stares at it, while the glass dome with its mechanism sits on the pedestal throughout. > Here's where I stopped checking it last time. > September 1929... > Oh, no. > Oh, no.

Burns scowls and grits his teeth as he holds the rope, then lets go of it and clasps his hands behind his back, turning slightly to the side while Smithers keeps looking at him. The scene ends with Burns standing sideways in his teal suit and black tie beside the dark wooden door at the left edge of the frame. > Um, well, sir, it happened 25 years before I was born. > Oh, that's your excuse for everything. > I've got to do something to get my money back quickly.

He scowls and speaks sharply to them, then turns to his thin assistant Smithers, who wears glasses, a pink bow tie and a badge, and jabs his finger toward Smithers' chest while Smithers stands stiffly listening. > This calls for an aggressive trading strategy. > Good idea, sir. > Take 50% of my money and put it in the blue chips. > Transatlantic zeppelin, amalgamated spats, congreaves and flammable powders, U.S. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/284451.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/287162 ## 4:50–4:58 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands at left in a dark green suit and black tie, while Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, stands at right in an olive suit with a pink bow tie and an ID badge. In a wood-paneled study with a clock on the wall and bookshelves behind, Burns jabs a pointing finger, then gestures with both hands, then points upward with his index finger and grins, while Smithers listens with a neutral expression. Behind them, a row of identical suited men in grey jackets and ties crowd together and grin, and the scene ends with Burns smiling and raising a fist toward his chest. > hay, and sink the rest into that up-and-coming Baltimore opera hat company.

The scene moves outdoors to Uriah's Heap Recycling Center, a yellow shack under a sign reading "URIAH'S HEAP RECYCLING CENTER", where Bart and Lisa stand with other children as a man in a purple shirt carries a tall stack of newspapers. The bearded man with a long black ponytail in a pink tie-dye shirt takes a small card from him while more stacks of newspaper sit on the ground. > That should set things right again, eh, boys? > Absolutely. Oh, yes, sir. Can't go wrong with Congraves. > A half ton of newspaper and all we get is 75 cents?

Facing him from the right is a bearded man with a long black ponytail tied with a red band, wearing a pink and purple wavy-striped shirt. Behind them stacked bundles of newspaper sit to the left against a blue sky. The man in purple first shows the paper with a tight, grimacing expression, then raises it higher and speaks with his mouth open, while his free hand moves outward toward the bearded man. > That won't even cover the gas I used to go to the store to buy the twine to tie up the > bundles. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/311561.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/314481 ## 5:18–5:31 Homer, the bald heavy man in a purple shirt, stands at left facing a bearded man with long black hair in a pink and purple wavy-patterned shirt, who gestures with open hands and then points and jabs a finger. Behind them is a chain-link fence, a tree, and a pile of crushed cans and recycling bundles. The scene then shifts to a yellow station wagon in a dirt lot in front of a red brick building, where Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie and others climb into the car while Homer walks alongside with his hands at his sides, and the recycling pile sits beside the vehicle. > It sounds like you're working for your car. > Simplify, man! > Oh, well. > Sorry, kids. The trip to Albany is off, and there's to be no more recycling.

Inside the car, Lisa leans over the seat and gestures with her hands while the driver keeps his eyes on the road. The wagon then drives across a dusty lot past a chain-link fence and a tree, with a yellow figure waving from the rear window, and it parks by a low building beside a heap of bundled paper and cardboard. > But we didn't do that badly. We collected enough paper to save one whole tree. > Oh, Mommy, help!

In the office, a row of men in grey suits and red ties stand behind a board showing a red line sloping steeply downward, and they look glum as Burns gestures with his hands spread on the desk. Later, Burns sits in a red leather chair with his back to the viewer while the suited men and Smithers look on, and a gold clock sits on the desk. > Are you saying my money's all gone? > But I made all the right moves, didn't I? > Oh, yes, sir. Every move a right one. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/342634.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/347013 ## 5:52–6:03 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, leans over a desk in a blue suit and black tie, glaring and pointing sharply to the side while Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, a pink bow tie and a green jacket with an ID badge, stands beside him looking nervous. In the later frames, Burns sits in a red armchair behind the desk, with a seated man in a green sweater, likely Ned Flanders with his moustache and glasses, at the left edge, while a row of six suited men in grey and red ties stands behind a red-and-white downward-trending graph on an easel. A brass desk clock sits on the purple desk, and tall bookshelves and wood-panelled doors line the office walls. > I see it all now. > You're just a bunch of yes-men. > I was making the wrong moves and you were too gutless to tell me. > Isn't that right? Yes, sir. > Then I'll fix this myself.

Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, stands at the desk in a green jacket and pink bow tie, first looking on attentively and then speaking while Burns stays seated. Burns then glances around, lets his hands clasp in front of him, and grimaces with a worried, pleading look, while Smithers keeps standing beside the desk in the office. > Smithers take out another mortgage on the plant. > Well, the bank has already foreclosed on the plant. > And your house, sir. > But... what will I do? > Well, the first thing you'll have to do is move out of the bank's house.

Burns, where Smithers clasps Burns's hand while talking. Burns then rises and walks across a red carpet while Smithers grips his shoulder, passing a row of grey-suited men with red ties beneath a portrait of Burns, a wall clock, and double doors. Smithers ends up embracing Burns in the middle of the room as the row of men looks on. > I'll help you pack. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/376001.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/380797 ## 6:26–6:37 Mr. Burns, a frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, and his thin assistant Smithers in glasses and a bow tie appear in a grand mansion with white dust-sheeted furniture and a red-carpeted staircase. The scene opens on a green lawn with a 'FOR SALE' sign in front of a large domed building while a small figure stands near a fountain and birds fly up from the lawn. Burns, carrying a briefcase, and Smithers, with a hand on his shoulder, descend the stairs as a dark-haired woman in red and a small child in red walk across the tiled hall below. > Go on, get out of here. > And I'm sure a pro wrestler such as yourself will appreciate all the closet space, Hitman. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/387679.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/391850 ## 6:37–6:47 A blonde woman in a red suit with a pearl necklace and a briefcase stands talking with a muscular man in a pink tank top, black wristbands, and silver visor-style sunglasses, his long black hair hanging down. In a grand hall with a red-carpeted staircase and tall double doors, two men in suits, likely Mr. Burns and Smithers, appear at the top of the stairs and slowly descend. As they come down, the woman gestures with an open hand while the man stands with his hands on his hips, then raises a hand to his chin, and finally sweeps an arm outward as he speaks. > Ooh, this place has got old man stink. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/398315.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/402277 ## 6:47–6:59 Mr. Burns, frail and stooped with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, holds a brown suitcase while his thin assistant Smithers, wearing glasses, a green jacket and a pink bow tie, steadies him by the back on a staircase with red carpet. Then a blonde woman in a red suit and red heels walks across a ballroom with pink-draped tables and tall pink-paned windows, and a muscular long-haired wrestler in a pink tank top, black trunks, white boots and sunglasses approaches her. They stop face to face in the middle of the room, and the wrestler plants his hands on his hips beside her. > Ooh. > Don't listen to him, sir. You've got an enchanting musk. > And you wouldn't even be the only wrestler in the neighborhood. > The shrieking sheet lives just three doors away. > Hey, I'll take it. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/408533.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/413538 ## 6:59–7:05 A muscular man with long dark curly hair, visor sunglasses and a pink tank top flexes his arms in a pale room with a white draped table and a window beside him. The scene then shifts to Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, who stands beside a bespectacled man in an olive jacket holding a wooden box. Burns lifts a gold-framed portrait of himself off the wall, leaving a lighter rectangle behind, and grins slyly while examining the empty frame. > Uh, would it be all right if I kept this portrait? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/420629.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/422297 ## 7:05–7:15 Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands holding a gilded framed portrait of himself in a blue-walled room with a brown door and blue tiled floor, while a muscular, unfamiliar man with long wavy black hair, visor-style sunglasses, a pink tank top, black pants and black wristbands stands beside him. The muscular man first stands with his arms crossed, then leans forward with his hand on his chin, straightens back to crossed arms, and finally puts his hand to his mouth and pulls a grimacing face with his hands on his hips while Burns keeps grinning and glancing sideways at the portrait. > To remind me of better times. > Why would I want a picture of a pitiful pencil-neck geek? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/426259.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/430430 ## 7:15–7:21 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, holds a gold-framed portrait of himself in a blue suit and looks down at it, then carries it out of a building doorway onto a sidewalk while bending over to look at it. Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses, a bow tie and a green jacket, stands in the open doorway holding a briefcase and watching him. Mr. Burns's mouth opens as he speaks, and the portrait shows a small grey-haired version of him with a dark tie. > Yeah, why indeed. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/436895.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/438563 ## 7:21–7:31 Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, in a blue suit, stands beside a bespectacled man in a green jacket, purple bow tie and name badge in an open doorway with an orange sky and pink clouds behind them. The man turns to Burns, then puts an arm around his shoulders and steers him out through the doorway, and the two pass out of view. The final view shows the empty doorway with a yellow door handle, a dark shrub at the bottom and the orange sky with pink clouds. > I'll make sure he forwards your social security check, sir. > Excellent. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/442525.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/446488 ## 7:31–7:45 Homer Simpson, the bald heavy man in a white shirt and tan tie, and Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and red bead necklace, sit at the kitchen table with Bart, Lisa and Maggie while they eat. The scene opens dark, then shows the family at the purple-and-yellow kitchen table with plates of food, the checkered floor and green stove behind them. The view then moves closer to Homer and Marge: Homer, mouth open and holding a fork, gestures toward three pink utensils hanging on a rack, while Marge, holding a folded newspaper, looks over at him. In the last moment Homer turns to look at Marge, who answers while still holding the newspaper, with a red plastic basket of dishes visible behind her. > Homer, you didn't tell me Mr. Burns went broke and lost the nuclear power plant. > Now, I can't remember every little thing that happens in my day. > You told me about that candy bar you found three times. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/452744.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/458375 ## 7:45–7:57 Bart and Homer stand together in a purple kitchen with a microwave and red utensils on the wall, while Lisa sits at the table reading a newspaper with a small photo on it. Bart talks and rests his hand on Homer's arm as Homer grins and points at himself, and Lisa glances up from the paper with a wide-eyed, wincing expression before looking back down at it. > You found a candy bar? Oh, yes. Gather round my son and I shall tell you a tale. > I normally don't laugh at other people's misfortunes, > but on behalf of the recycling community... > Ha! > Couldn't happen to anyone more deserving. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/466299.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/471513 ## 7:57–8:07 Homer, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt and orange tie, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and red beaded necklace, stand at a kitchen counter with pink utensils hung on a rack. Homer folds his arms and talks, then grins and gestures with one hand while Marge looks on and touches her necklace. The scene then shifts to an office where a frail, stooped old man in a green suit sits in a red armchair behind a desk, his hand raised near his face, in front of a rain-streaked window with green curtains. > They're not going to close the plant, are they? > No, the bank put Lenny in charge. > Ah, attention everybody. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/479020.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/482774 ## 8:07–8:19 Lenny, the man with spiky black hair in a green sweater and purple suspenders, sits at a desk in a red wingback chair beside a small computer monitor and a LENNY nameplate. He looks worried, lifts a hand to his chin, and then stretches both arms up behind his head with a sly, drowsy grin. The scene then cuts to a white door labeled W. SMITHERS with a room 19 plaque and a round brass knob. > Work harder, bye. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/489030.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/493618 ## 8:19–8:29 Smithers, the thin assistant with glasses and a purple bow tie, sits at a round table in a pink dining room across from Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, who holds a spoon over a bowl. Smithers keeps his hands on a blue mug and a green plate while Burns leans toward him and gestures, and then Burns steps up behind him and, with a hand on Smithers' shoulder, pulls his chair back so Smithers gets up, leaving the spoon and bowl on the table. Behind them a framed landscape painting hangs on the wall, and in the first frame an open brown suitcase with a pink sock and a toothbrush sits on the floor beside a blue couch with a white pillow. > Well, sir, I have to get to work. > Lenny's a real bear on tardiness. > Are there any chores I can do? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/500291.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/504462 ## 8:29–8:39 Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, and Smithers, his thin assistant in a green jacket and pink bow tie, are in a pink kitchen dining area with a framed landscape painting on the wall. Burns grips a pair of long tongs with a white cup balanced on top, then handles the tongs over a cup and saucer on a red chair while Smithers steadies him and takes hold of the tongs. Smithers lifts the tongs as Burns sits down at the white-clothed table beside a blue mug and spoon, and Burns is then left seated alone there. > Uh, no, no. > You just stay here and maintain your dignity. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/510719.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/514889 ## 8:39–8:51 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, appears first standing near a round table with a white cloth in a pink kitchen, then a yellow hand pulls a pink grocery list from the white refrigerator, listing cereal, eggs, milk, catsup, mustard, luncheon meat, cabbage, juice, ointment, soap, mop and napkins. Mr. Burns then steps into view at the right, holding up the same pink paper and glancing sideways with a toothy grin while wearing a white shirt and a blue hearing aid. > Ah, here's a chance to earn my keep. > I will go out and get these items from the food jobber. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/521146.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/525734 ## 8:51–8:57 Mr. Burns, a frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, waits at a curb on a city street lined with brick and pastel storefronts, beside a green bench and a partly visible street sign. He steps up to the open door of a white, orange and light-blue city bus, then boards and sits behind the bus driver, a man in a blue uniform and cap gripping the wheel. Mr. Burns then rises and leans in beside the driver, reaching out to pat his shoulder with a toothy grin while the driver glances back with a sour look. > Grocery store, please. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/532824.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/534492 ## 8:57–9:09 Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, and Barney, a heavy man with messy brown hair in an orange shirt, ride a bus together. Burns first stands in the aisle beside Barney, then sits down next to him on a blue bench seat while the bus windows show buildings and a sign rolling past. Burns grins and gestures with his hand to his chest while Barney, scowling and talking, turns his head toward him. > I am riding on the bus. > Hey, aren't you that guy everybody hates? > Oh, my, no. > I'm Monty Burns. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/538663.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/543668 ## 9:09–9:21 Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, pushes a red shopping cart through a grocery store and studies a pink slip while Mrs. Krabappel, with a tall brown hairdo, red glasses and a brown blouse, holds a blue box beside him. The scene widens to a long cereal aisle marked "6 CEREAL", where two shoppers walk along lined shelves of colorful boxes, then returns to Burns, who looks up with his mouth open as he holds the pink paper near shelves stacked with boxes showing stars, horseshoes and a sun. > I'm shopping. > Hmm, cereal. > Oh, my. > I wonder which is the cereal for me. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/550759.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/555555 ## 9:21–9:32 Krusty the Clown, with green hair, a pink shirt, blue bow tie and white gloves, stands beside a shopping cart in a supermarket cereal aisle, first holding up a box of Freshly Krusty O's. Mr. Burns, frail and stooped with a hooked nose and blue-grey hair at the sides, stands facing him and wags a finger while talking. Krusty spreads his gloved hands in a shrug as Burns turns to look along the rows of Krusty O's boxes stacked on the shelves. > Oh, excuse me, could you tell me where I might find the Burns ooze? > Sorry, Pops. They don't put nobodies on cereal boxes. > Hmm.

Nearby, a man in red overalls and a white shirt carries a cardboard box past the refrigerated cases labeled ICE, 1/2 & 1/2 and MILK. > Yeah. I suppose this one looks a bit like me. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/574115.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/575992 ## 9:39–9:50 Mr. Burns, a frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands in a shop beside a glass-doored refrigerator stocked with milk and water bottles, holding a carton marked MILK. A store clerk in a light green shirt with a red apron and dark hair holds a cardboard box and grips the cooler door handle as the door swings. Burns talks and gestures with a raised finger while the clerk, box in arms, looks sideways with a weary, uneasy expression as the cooler door opens and closes beside them. > Oh, thank you, Shopee. > I ventured into search for milk when the door snapped shut behind me. > Yeah, those dairy cases are death traps. > Ketchup.

The bottle's label alternates between KETCHUP and CATSUP, with a tomato logo and a star on the CATSUP label, while the hand tilts and turns it against the shelves. The shelves hold green, blue, red, and purple cans, and the bottle's white cap is visible at the top. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/591424.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/593718 ## 9:57–10:10 Mr. Burns, a frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands in a grocery aisle beside a red shopping cart, holding two ketchup bottles and gazing at them. He then lifts one bottle close to his face and scowls while, behind him, two store clerks in red aprons watch, one with arms crossed and his mouth open as if speaking. Shelves of colorful bottles, jars and boxes fill the store, and a red-labeled ketchup bottle is visible in his hand. > I'm in way over my head. He's talking to the ketchup now. > Burns is sure acting nutty. Maybe going broke and losing his plans destroyed his brain. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/598515.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/603937 ## 10:10–10:21 Inside the Kwik-E-Mart, frail, stooped Mr. Burns with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides holds two red ketchup bottles while a clerk in glasses and an orange apron rests a hand on his shoulder, with Apu, dark-haired and in a green shirt and orange apron, beside them among shelves of jars and bottles. The group then moves together through the aisle, with the clerk's hand pressing Burns forward and Apu following behind. They end up facing the glass entrance doors, where fat Chief Wiggum stands holding a nightstick, a police car visible outside through the window, while the three men stand before him. > Could you come along with us, sir? > Are you here to solve my ketchup problem? > Yes, that's right. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/611653.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/616241 ## 10:21–10:32 Chief Wiggum, the heavy police chief in a blue uniform and cap, grips the arm of Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, as they walk along a sidewalk in front of a yellow building with a red-and-white striped awning. Beside them stands a sign reading "Springfield Retirement Castle" and a white police car with a flashing light sits at the curb on the right. Burns first glances sideways with wide eyes and a worried look, while Wiggum speaks and gestures with an open hand, then Burns closes his eyes and sighs as Wiggum continues to talk, and finally Wiggum shrugs with his palm turned outward while Burns still looks unhappy. > Where are you taking me? What's happening? > Relax. > You've gone off your nut, so we're stuffing you into an old folks' home. > Those store guys signed the commitment papers. > But I'm shopping. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/623123.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/627085 ## 10:32–10:44 Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands outdoors in a white shirt on a sidewalk beside a green lawn and trees, with his eyes wide and mouth open. Homer, bald with stubble and wearing a white shirt and blue jeans, slumps on a bench in a bright green room, drinking from a red and silver can, then lowers the can and sits with heavy eyelids. Later, Homer sits on a bench beside a blue table as Lisa, in a red dress with a pearl necklace, drags a large black garbage bag across a checkered floor toward a pink doorway while Homer holds his stomach and grimaces. > Here you go, honey. > That's about all the recycling I can handle today. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/633341.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/638138 ## 10:44–10:53 Homer Simpson, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt, and Lisa Simpson, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair in a red dress and pearl necklace, stand in the kitchen beside an orange cabinet with glass doors holding wine glasses, a red radio, and plates. Lisa holds open a dark green trash bag that already has cans inside, while Homer leans toward her with a dazed, queasy expression, his hand resting on his belly. Over the moment Homer's face shifts from woozy and grimacing to looking down at the bag, and Lisa's eyes widen as she peers into it, with the bag hanging open between them and a checkered floor below. > Dad, if you just drink one more, I'll have a full bag. > Oh, but Daddy doesn't feel so good. > There's got to be more trash around here somewhere.

Homer sits and talks, then raises his hand toward the cabinet while Lisa reaches up and high-fives him, after which Homer slumps back in his chair with his hand near his belly. Notable objects include a cork board with pinned papers and a drawing, a green refrigerator, and a blue tablecloth draped over his lap. In the last image, the scene cuts to a sunny activity room where Mr. Burns, a frail stooped old man with a hooked nose, sits at a long table with Smithers beside him, while a wrinkled elderly woman with white hair and a pink dress eats, an old man with a walker crosses the room, and a thin man with glasses sits near the back. > Hey, why don't you try the old folks' home? > They practically live in their own filth. > Thanks, Dad. You're welcome, honey. > That's the activity room. We're not allowed in there.

Grampa points and raises a finger while talking, then squints with his eyes closed as Burns watches him, and the table holds food trays, glasses, and a hanging plant against a green wall. The scene then cuts to Burns alone in a corridor beside a door with a small window and red chairs, scowling sideways. > That's the library. > Not allowed in there either. > And don't even think about going in the game room. > Hey, gadman, how are we supposed to pass the time?

Later, Burns sits by a large window in a green sweater with dark curly hair while an elderly woman with grey hair in a wheelchair and a man in an orange cap and glasses sit beside him, all gazing out at a rainy view of a bare tree. The scene closes on the exterior of the Springfield Retirement Castle, a yellow two-story building with red roof and striped awnings, with its sign on the lawn. > Best bet is to stake yourself out a good spot at the staring window. > Don't tear my heart, my achy-breaking heart.

Troy McClure, in a tan hat, blue polo and lanyard, faces Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man in a white shirt and tan trousers, beside an OBITUARIES board, a floor lamp and a door. Troy then turns to a boombox on a wooden table and presses its button while gesturing with his other hand. > I just don't think he'd understand > Come on, Mr. Burns, join the fun! > That's the spirit.

A younger man in a cowboy hat, blue polo shirt, brown shorts and a whistle stands in the center, talking and smiling while his expression shifts from a closed-mouth look to a wide grin with eyes closed. A man with a light blue hairdo and white shirt stands in the right foreground with his back partly turned, and a painting hangs on the wall beside a small wooden table holding a record player. Across the moment the group barely moves, with only the center man's face changing.

He then stands by a window with his hands clasped behind his back, grimacing and speaking to a tall, blue-beehive-haired figure in a white shirt and brown belt, who stands with his own hands clasped behind his back and turns to face him. Outside, a green leaf drifts past a bare tree against a blue sky while the two men keep talking, with Burns's sour expression and the other man's animated mouth the main movements. > So this is how the Monty Burns saga ends. > If I hadn't surrounded myself with those spineless yes-men.

Burns first stands with his arms at his sides and a scowl, then his eyes widen in alarm as he leans toward the window. He moves closer with his hand raised to his chin, and then his face turns to a wide-eyed, open-mouthed grin. > What do you mean you don't have anything to recycle? > You must have some magazines or newspapers. > That voice, that shrill, disagreeable voice, it's her!

Lisa grimaces and holds the sack close as Grampa speaks and frowns, and then Mr. Burns, the frail, thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, appears in a white shirt beside a blue window and gestures with an open hand. Notable objects include the sack, a framed picture on the wall, and a ceiling of tiled panels. > Sorry, we're not allowed to read newspapers. > They angry up the blood. You, the troublemaking girl. > My name is Lisa, Mr. Burns. Lisa Simpson. > It doesn't matter what your name is, you idiot. > What I want to know is, will you help me get my money back?

Lisa then turns to him with a stern look and raises one arm toward him while he straightens up and reaches behind himself. Smithers, a thin man in glasses, a green jacket and a purple bow tie, stands near a doorway gesturing with both hands as Burns looks on, and a small sign on the wall reads "Sign in". > Ha, I'd never help you. You're the worst man in the world. > Yes, that's the kind of moxie I'm looking for. > You're hired. No, I'm not. > Sir, I'm so sorry my grocer committed you. > Well, never shop there again. > Not now, Smithers. I've got an empire to rebuild.

Burns clenches his fists, then raises a pointing finger and smirks, while Lisa, with her spiky hair, orange dress and pearl necklace, stands wide-eyed at the left edge, mouth slightly open, hand extended. The scene is static apart from Burns's gestures and Lisa's wary stare. > And the person who's going to help me is... > That girl!

The kite falls and comes to rest on the grass, and Milhouse runs off to the right as Lisa stands alone. The scene ends with Lisa in a white hat and pearl necklace on a city sidewalk, in front of a building numbered 111 with a yellow van and a green car parked beside her. > Please! > No!

Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose, a white suit and a black bow tie, appears in the rain, first grinning and then looking distressed with his mouth open. Lisa glances around and then moves off to the left, leaving the glass doors and parked cars on an empty, rainy street. > Please! > No!

The pink and green carousel turns, Burns grips the pole and looks anxious, and Lisa passes by alone on her horse while the ride spins through the scene. Homer, bald in a white shirt, then appears in profile against a pink wall beside an orange door, turning his head toward it. > Please! > No!

Burns holds a brown hat, gesturing with one hand toward it and placing his other hand on his chest, then spreading both hands in a shrug before clutching the hat in front of him again. Outside the door are a suburban street, a blue mailbox, houses and a leafy green tree under a blue sky. > Sir, we've never met before, but my name is Mr. > Burns, and I want your daughter to help make me rich again.

Burns gestures with one hand and grins while Homer looks at him wide-eyed, and in between, Maggie in a blue sleeper and blue bow sits on the green carpet inside, sucking her pacifier and pointing a finger upward near an orange chair. The suburban street with trees and houses is visible through the arch, and a framed picture of Bart hangs on the pink wall. > You mean Maggie? > Ah, the baby who shot me. No, I was referring to your other daughter. > Lisa! > You have a guest!

Homer then moves toward the front door holding a brown hat, and Burns drops to his knees on the orange carpet beside a grey fedora, clasping his hands while Lisa watches from the stairs. A green WELCOME mat lies just outside the open door, and a purple coat hangs on a red coat rack. > So, um, how's life in the gutter? > You again. > I've realized the error of my ways, Lisa. > I need someone with your integrity to help me.

He then tilts his head forward, his lips pursed and face strained, and leans further out past the door's edge as he moves closer to the doorway. Behind him, a green hedge and a yellow house with a red door are visible through a window, and his hands stay clasped as he bends lower toward the street. > Please. > Don't refuse this poor old man.

Lisa, in an orange skirt and pearl necklace, descends the stairs while holding the railing, then stands on the lower steps as Homer, in a white shirt and khaki pants, kneels on the floor at the bottom and gestures with one hand. The scene then moves closer on Lisa, standing with her mouth open and her eyes glancing sideways. > Well, if I did agree to help you, > you could only earn money by doing good socially responsible things. > Nothing evil. Nothing evil.

Lisa listens with a wary, unimpressed look, and Mr. Burns continues to gesture. Then Lisa turns toward his outstretched hand, and in the final moments she reaches out and clasps it in a handshake, with framed pictures on the wall behind them. > That's exactly the kind of radical thinking I need. > It's a deal.

Homer holds a red soda can, lifting it to his mouth, tilting his head back and opening his mouth wide as if mid-gulp or laughing, then lowering the can and staring ahead at the TV, while Bart sits with his legs dangling and his eyes narrowing and wincing as the moments pass. The scene ends with Homer lifting the can toward his face again while Bart glances sideways at him. > See that, boy? Why aren't you making any business deals? > I'll do it this afternoon.

Burns gestures with his hand, then holds up a silver can while Lisa looks on, and a grey can lies on the sand between them. The scene opens from a black screen and then shows the two small figures walking along the shoreline in the distance. > You mean there are actually people who will pay good money for garbage? > Not good money, really. > Each can will get you a nickel. Oh, don't poo-poo a nickel, Lisa.

He raises a finger, then leans toward her with his hands pinched together as if offering coins, and later opens his hands and gestures toward her while grinning, before raising his index finger again. Lisa stands still, looking up at him with a flat, unimpressed expression throughout. > A nickel will buy you a steak and kidney pie, a cup of coffee, a slice of cheesecake, > and a newsreel. > With enough change left over to ride the trolley from Battery Park to the Polo Grounds.

Burns gestures with an outstretched hand and leans toward her, then points toward the sand while Lisa looks on with half-closed eyes. The scene cuts to a close view of Lisa gazing sideways at the blue ocean with her eyes half-closed. Finally a green fish with a white mouth and a bubble trail lies on the sand near Lisa's red-and-yellow sandal, while the blue sea and wet shoreline stay in the background. > There's a can.

Lisa holds up a light blue plastic six-pack ring threaded through a green fish, and Burns leans in to look at it as she offers it to him. The two then walk along the top of the dune while the green fish floats in the water below, and a figure in an orange top peeks over the dune. > You have to cut these six-pack holders up, otherwise fish get trapped in them. > I see. > Ha-ha!

The scene then moves to a hardware store with a 'HARDWARE' sign, a purple cash register, a red gumball machine and a bucket labeled 'NAILS 5¢', where Burns, in a white shirt, reaches toward the counter and the bucket while a young clerk with brown hair and a white shirt watches.

He then lifts a can on the end of the grabber, and the scene shifts to a wooden table with scattered coins in front of a chain-link fence. Finally Burns, wearing a brown fedora, stands by a brick building with a clenched fist raised near his chest, beside a stack of papers. > My first dollar.

He gestures toward a bearded man with a long ponytail and a pink tie-dye shirt behind a service window, first pointing an open hand, then raising a finger, while Lisa watches. The bearded man clasps his hands and then spreads his arms wide with a startled, wide-eyed expression, and a stack of newspapers sits in the bottom right corner. > Thanks to you, Lisa, and our hemp-smoking friend. > Shine on, you crazy diamond. > Sounds like somebody's living in the past. > Contemporized, man. > Well, Lisa, as my advisor, You're entitled to 10%.

Burns first stands gesturing with an open hand, then leans in and cups a hand near his mouth as he talks to her. He kneels down to shake Lisa's hand, then stays crouched with a grinning expression while she smiles and gestures back with her hand. > Oh, I'm not doing this for the money. > I'm just happy knowing that future generations will enjoy unspoiled median strips and Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/905071.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/907573 ## 15:11–15:18 Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, wearing a brown fedora and white shirt, leans on his knee beside Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair, red dress and pearl necklace, at a chain-link fence on a dirt strip under a blue sky.

The seated man, who matches Mr. Burns' description only loosely since he is a stout newscaster type with swept-back grey-white hair, talks behind a white paper on the desk, shifting his expression from a sly look to a smirk, with his hands clasped together. The portrait stays fixed on the wall to his right throughout, and the paper and desk remain unchanged while his mouth moves and his face shifts between expressions. > And from our It's Funny When It Happens to Them file, > remember millionaires see Montgomery Burns? > The man who blocked out our son ran over a local boy and stole Christmas from 1981 to > 1985? > Well, guess who's flat broke and picking up trash for a living?

News anchor Kent Brockman, grey-haired and wearing a red jacket and blue tie, steps up with a microphone and questions Burns as he holds a can. Brockman keeps the microphone pointed at Burns while the thin, grey-sided Burns holds up a can and talks back, with a puddle and a yellow stain on the alley ground. > Now that you're completely ruined, how do you feel? > Excellent. > I'm on my way back to the top.

Marge sits upright in a green dress with a red bead necklace and laughs with her eyes closed, while Homer laughs with his mouth wide open and his hand pressed to his chest, and Bart turns his head toward them. In the final shots Lisa sits alone at the right edge, glancing sideways with a wary, uneasy expression and then raising one hand with its fingers bent, as a row of books and a red bedpost stand beside her. > Wow, he went from stinking rich to just plain stinking. > Good one, Mom.

Burns leans toward Lisa with a smile at first, then Lisa looks up and to the side with a worried expression as he speaks. Burns then turns slightly toward the viewer, mouth open mid-speech, while Lisa stands beside him with her eyes glancing sideways. Scattered trash, crumpled paper and a purple cup lie on the green floor, and a box of bottles sits at the left edge. > You have to show them they're appreciated. > Ooh, capital idea, partner.

Mr. Burns, with arms raised, and Lisa in her red dress stand by a door at the back, and a sign reading 'G INC.' hangs on the wall. Over the scene, Grampa raises a can and then a brown bottle as he talks, and the bearded man lifts a bottle, while the figure at the door raises his arms and then holds up a small object near his face. > People, if we meet this week's quota, > I'll take you to the most duck-filled pond you ever sat by. > Oh, hot diggity!

As she reads, her face shifts from a grin to speaking with her mouth open, then the scene widens to show Homer at the right end of the table with a utensil, Bart in an orange shirt, Maggie in a high chair, and Marge standing by the window with a plate, glancing sideways with half-closed eyes. The kitchen has checkered floor tiles, purple walls, and yellow curtains printed with corn. > Wow, even I didn't know he was so committed to recycling. > See? > I told you Mr. Burns has changed. See? > Lisa, nobody likes a gloater, right, homie?

Mr. Burns, frail and stooped with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands at a wooden podium with a microphone while Lisa, in a red dress and pearl necklace, watches from the front of the crowd, and the audience applauds. > Uh-huh. > See? > Yes, thank you, everyone.

Beside him at the railing, Lisa Simpson in her red dress and pearl necklace watches with a fixed stare. The scene then pulls back to a large orange building with a round portrait of Lisa above its entrance, a white sheet draped over part of its front, and a crowd of onlookers in the foreground under a blue sky. > Lisa Simpson. > For if it were not for her infectious moralizing, > we would not be here today to witness the unveiling of... > the Little Lisa Recycling Plant.

In the first frames, a crowd behind them claps and cheers: Moe the grey-haired bartender in a bow tie and vest clasps his hands in front, Milhouse with blue hair and glasses claps beside him, Homer's lookalike Herb in a suit stands near the back, and a heavy man in an orange-pink shirt and Ned Flanders-style figures clap nearby. In the final frames, Mr. Burns leans down and takes Lisa's hand while she looks up at him in the sunlit hallway with large windows and a metal railing at the left. > Oh, ain't that cute? > Makes Little Debbie look like a pile of puke. > Would you like to be the first to take a tour of the plant, Little Lisa? > I'd love to, partner.

At first Lisa and Burns walk along an upper walkway above a conveyor belt carrying colored cans and objects past barrels and a metal machine with a hose-like duct. Then they stop by the windows, where Burns gestures with his hands as he talks and Lisa looks on, first with a wide-eyed stare and later with a sour, unimpressed expression. The scene ends with Burns extending his arm toward the windows as if presenting them. > The whole plant is environmentally sound. > It's powered by old newspapers, the machinery is made entirely of used cans, > and the windows are from the old liquor bottles we collected.

Barney gestures with an open hand, then jabs a finger upward and clenches a fist with his eyes shut as Burns glowers at him in his white shirt. The moment ends with Burns grinning beside Lisa, who now stands at his side and smiles, as he lowers one hand near the window. > Hey! > I thought I told you to stop licking my windows. > I know. You told me. > And when I woke up this morning, I said, Marty, you're not going to lick that... > I'm so proud of you, Mr. Burns.

Lisa gestures with an open hand while speaking, then Burns walks across the room with his arm outstretched as Lisa follows beside him. They stop facing the money, and Burns leans down to touch the pile while Lisa watches. > and you're doing it without endangering the planet or cozying up to the aspen crowd. > Oh, hold your accolades to the end of the tour. > you haven't seen the best part. > I couldn't watch your demonstration of the fish caught in the plastic rings without Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/1072947.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/1077952 ## 18:03–18:13 Lisa Simpson, in a red dress with a pearl necklace, peers through a large white plastic six-pack ring while Mr. Burns, a frail, thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose, bald except for grey hair at the sides, and wearing a white shirt and khaki trousers, holds another ring and raises a finger in an office with computer monitors. He then gestures with an open hand as he walks beside Lisa along a railing past a pallet of bundled plastic rings. The pair stop at the railing to look out over a vast blue sea covered with floating white plastic rings, with mountains on the horizon. > getting an idea. > Look out over the water. > I figured if one six-pack holder will catch one fish, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/1085042.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/1088796 ## 18:13–18:26 Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands in a white shirt beside a machine, gesturing with his hand and then pointing at a pile of interlocked plastic rings, then pressing his fingertips together in a heart-like gesture while smiling. Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair in a red dress, stands next to him at a railing in the office area of a yellow building. Outside, a large white net of six-pack rings spills down from the building's open hatch into the sea, where dolphins and fish swim among green and orange debris and a shoreline with trees lies beyond. The scene is set on the building's exterior, with blue windows and a desk visible inside. > a million sewn together will catch a million fish. > Watch. > What's going on? > I call it the Burns Omni-Net.

Burns gestures with both hands toward the water, and the scene then cuts to a blue-dotted mesh net where whales, fish and a squid are hauled toward a large grinding machine with gears and a conveyor. The sequence ends on a close-up of a lavender-lit wall with rows of round lights and the edge of a spiky blond head at the right.

Above a blue wall, large grey gears with spiked teeth turn at the top of the scene, while a molten orange substance pours out of a grey chute with a round opening and flows down a zigzagging purple channel lined with dark green brick. The orange flow slides steadily downward and to the right, and Lisa's mouth opens as she gasps, with the on-screen moment ending on her wide-eyed face. > Oh dear God.

Orange slurry pours from a grey funnel into rows of green barrels, which fill with the sludge as the pair stand among them. Burns gestures with an open hand while Lisa glances up at him, her eyes shifting as he speaks. > I call our product Little Lisa's Patented Animal Slurry. > It's a high protein feed for farm animals, insulation for low income housing, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/1121746.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/1124457 ## 18:48–18:55 Mr. Burns, the frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, and Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair in an orange-red dress and a pearl necklace, stand together in a factory with green barrels of reddish contents in the foreground and a large tiled wall behind them. Burns talks animatedly, extending a hand toward Lisa, pointing, then spreading his arms wide with his eyes closed, and finally gesturing with both hands while Lisa looks up at him. Throughout, Lisa stays beside him, watching and listening, and no on-screen text is visible. > a powerful explosive and a top notch engine coolant. > And best of all, it's made from 100% recycled animals.

Burns stirs the barrel with a spoon and offers Lisa a spoonful of brown slurry while she holds a hand to her mouth and looks queasy, then she recoils with her arms spread and later jumps back and forth, pointing a finger at Burns, who stands with his back to the viewer. Blue puddles lie on the purple floor beneath a large pipe with green drips. > I think I'm going to be sick. Oh, a spoonful of slurry will cure what ails you. > Oh, you haven't changed at all. > You're still evil, and when you're trying to be good, you're even more evil.

Burns shrugs with his palms up, then tilts his head and spreads his arms wide with a grin, while Lisa, seen from behind, raises one hand toward him. Both remain in place throughout, and no on-screen text is visible. > I don't understand. > Pigs need food. > Engines need coolant. > Dynamiters need dynamite. > I'm supplying it to them at a tidy profit, and not a single sea creature was wasted.

Burns first spreads his arms wide, then raises his hands toward a horizontal pipe, then clasps his hands together with a broad grin while Lisa, seen from behind, gestures toward him. The scene is an industrial plant with no on-screen text. > You inspired it all, little Lisa.

She runs out along a sidewalk past a boy with reddish hair holding a blue recycling bin and a woman in glasses and a purple vest carrying another blue bin, then stops with her arms outstretched in front of the woman. The blue recycling bins and the factory smokestacks with Lisa's face are the notable objects. > Oh! > Stop! > Don't recycle! > It's murder! You're helping Mr. Burns! > But you told us to recycle.

Lisa gestures with one hand and looks up at them with wide eyes, and the scene closes in on her open-mouthed, startled face. No on-screen text is visible. > You convinced us it was good. > No! > It's evil! Please stop recycling!

She sets the bin by the grey trash can, reaches up to tip the bin's contents in, and is watched by the woman in pink, a red-haired woman in a lavender top and purple pants, and a man in a green shirt and blue cap, who all look on. A garbage truck with green barrels rolls up beside the can, and the scene ends on a close view of a yellow spiky-haired figure peeking over a brown wall with its hands gripping the top edge. > Stop! > You can't mix plastic with paper!

She clings to the back of the truck, then is flung into the air over a brown road between an orange car and a blue car, and afterward runs down the middle of the street lined with blue crates and onlookers on the sidewalks. Each stage shows her moving farther along the road, with the barrels and crates as the main objects around her. > Ugh, I can't get the smell of slurry out of my clothes.

Lisa stands with her arms outstretched and mouth open, then covers her face with one hand and sobs, before lowering her hand and standing with her arms out again. She then faces Homer and speaks to him as he sits with a tense expression, while Marge looks on with a flat expression. > A fool to help that horrible old man. > I hope you learned your lesson, Lisa. > Never help anyone.

Inside the living room, Homer sits on the brown couch beside Bart, while Lisa stands on the oval rug and Marge stands nearby. Burns and his thin assistant Smithers, in glasses and a purple bow tie, stand in the archway, with Smithers gesturing toward the room while Burns clasps his hands, and a framed sailboat picture hangs on the wall. > Simpson, what are you doing here? Why aren't you at work? > I made a bad mistake and Lenny sent me home to think about what I did. > But I don't remember what it was, so I'm watching TV.

Both stand in front of a pink wall near a window with a yellow curtain. Burns then turns and points his finger off to the side while grinning, and Smithers stays beside him. Next, Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair in a red dress and pearl necklace, stands at a corner with her arms crossed and a sullen, sideways glance, with a brown door and a green wall beside her. > Well, Lenny's reign of terror is over. > Mr. Burns bought the plant back this morning. > Enough chit-chat. I need to see Lisa. I don't want to talk to you, Mr. > Burns. Oh, I think you will.

Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair and a red dress, stands with her arms crossed and a pearl necklace, looking unimpressed at the edge of the frame in the last part of the moment, while a green figure is partly visible on the left. Burns' gestures grow more expansive across the sequence as he speaks to her. > You see, I just sold the Lil' Lisa recycling plant for $120 million. > Congratulations.

Burns then lifts a check reading "Twelve" to his mouth, and later he holds out a small white slip toward Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa, who stand on a striped rainbow rug with wide eyes, while Marge raises a hand and Homer's mouth opens. > Oh, don't congratulate me. > Congratulate Bay State Fish Sticks.

Bart's eyes shift sideways and his mouth opens as he speaks, while Lisa looks toward the paper, first wide-eyed and tense with her teeth clenched, then open-mouthed as she speaks, and finally turns to a steady, sober stare. Bart drops out of the frame as Lisa stays in view, a brown chair behind her, with the paper held steady throughout. > Lise, have I told you lately that I love you? > Wow, I've never seen so much money.

A yellow hand enters from the right holding a white paper. Lisa looks at the paper with a sad, drooping expression, then lifts her hand and waves it in a dismissive gesture with her mouth open. Her eyes then widen as she gazes sideways with her mouth open, and she settles into a weary, unimpressed look with her hand on her hip. She finally looks shocked, wide-eyed and mouth open, while the hand still holds the paper against the wall. > Oh, but I can't accept that, knowing where it came from. > Can I, Mom?

A hand holding a sheet of paper enters from the right, and Lisa reaches up to take it while the family watches with wide eyes. Lisa then stands by a brown armchair reading the paper with a worried, sighing expression. Mr. Burns, a frail, thin, hook-nosed old man with grey hair at the sides, appears in a dark green suit, smiling and rubbing his fingers together with a sly look. Lamps, a purple lampshade, and a pink wall with a white baseboard fill the room. > Lisa, you do whatever your conscience tells you. > No. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/1271270.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/1276692 ## 21:23–21:35 Marge with her tall blue beehive and red beads and Lisa in her red dress and pearl necklace first stand in a living room, with Homer standing bald and heavy in a white shirt and blue pants at the left, as Marge leans in to nuzzle Lisa's cheek and Lisa closes her eyes. The scene then shifts to a hospital room where Homer lies in a bed with an IV drip and monitor leads attached, while a Black doctor in a white coat holding a clipboard stands beside him and Marge, Maggie with her pacifier and blue bow, Lisa, and Bart in his orange shirt look on anxiously. The monitor's heartbeat trace changes from a spiking line to a flatter one as the doctor keeps talking and the family watches. > You did the right thing, sweetheart. > Well, > that's the first case I've ever seen of a man suffering four simultaneous heart attacks.

In the bed, Homer Simpson lies on a white pillow with a stethoscope-like tube attached to his chest and an IV stand beside him, grimacing and looking weary with his eyes half-closed. Across the moment Homer's expression shifts between a grimace with clenched teeth and a slack, mouth-open groan, while Lisa's uneasy grin and wide eyes stay fixed on him. A white hospital room with a grey cabinet in the background frames the scene. > I'm sorry, Dad. > It's all right. > I understand. > But we really could have used that $12,000. > Um, Dad, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E21/1296712.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e21-the-old-man-and-the-lisa/1299840 ## 21:44–21:54 Lisa Simpson, in her orange-red dress and pearl necklace, stands beside a hospital bed at the left edge, with a figure in a blue top and green skirt behind her and a hand on her shoulder. She looks sideways and then opens her mouth to speak. The scene shifts to an empty green-walled hospital corridor with a yellow floor, an EMERGENCY sign above green double doors, wall signs with left and right arrows, and a gurney on the right.

It begins with gold text reading "Executive Producers BILL OAKLEY & JOSH WEINSTEIN" on a black background, which fades to black and then gives way to a second credit reading "Executive Producers JAMES L. BROOKS, MATT GROENING, SAM SIMON." That text fades out, and the card "Starring DAN CASTELLANETA" appears, followed by "NANCY CARTWRIGHT" alone on black.

First a 'Dialogue Sound Editors' credit lists Bobby Mackston, Terry Greene and Norm MacLeod, then 'Music Editor Chris Ledesma', 'Sound Effects Editor Travis Powers' and 'Re-Recording Mixers R.

The screen lights up with a blue beam and the words GRACIE FILMS, and the audience silhouettes remain visible in front of it. The scene then changes to a golden 20th Century Fox Television logo against a blue sky with searchlight beams, with the text A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY beneath it, before fading to black. > Shhh. > We'll be right back.
