Bart then disappears, and Homer, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt and blue trousers, stands beside the pink car in front of a yellow garage with a red mailbox on the lawn. The scene opens from black onto blue sky and clouds with the yellow title text THE SIMPSONS.

The family then stands on a striped oval rug in front of a 'MEND-A-COUCH' sign with a red arrow pointing down, while Homer stands near the sign and Marge, tall with her blue beehive, looks up at him. The scene ends on a pink-backed television set whose blue screen first reads 'CREATED BY MATT GROENING' and then 'DEVELOPED BY JAMES L. BROOKS, MATT GROENING, SAM SIMON' in yellow letters.

The scene opens from black onto a dusk exterior of a two-story lavender house with a pink door, a pink garage and a mailbox at the curb, and it ends on a pink screen reading 'ITCHY & SCRATCHY in DEAF COMEDY BLAM!' above cartoon cat and mouse silhouettes. > Fight and fight and fight. > Fight, fight, fight, fight, fight, fight. > The S.E. and Spatty Show. > Ha ha ha ha.

The mouse later dashes down a pink corridor past a large ear-shaped chart, and finally a yellow checkered taxi pulls up outside a pink building with a "HOSPITAL" sign, a brown-furred driver in a cap at the wheel and the bandaged mouse in the back. > Shhh.

In the first moment, a yellow taxi with a bear driver sits on the tarmac while a small blue mouse-like character runs toward the plane's stairs. The plane then takes off into a yellow sky, and a sign reading 'AUJOURD'HUI: LE BOMBE ATOMIQUE' with a bomb icon and French flag appears beside the runway. Finally, a group of white-coated scientists in dark glasses, one with a green head, one with blue hair and binoculars, and a pink panther-like figure, stand on the beach watching, while the blue mouse-like character runs across the sand toward the distant palm trees. > Five, > three, two, one, now.

The TV shows a sunny tropical island with palm trees, then an orange mushroom cloud explosion that appears again in the next scene. The screen then cuts to green palm fronds, a pink cloud, and a thin blue pole with a grey tip against a yellow sky, while the boy's mouth hangs open in alarm. > Turn it down. We don't want to wake up Mom and Dad.

The scene then moves to a hospital room where a black cat with an IV tube lies strapped to a bed beside a bald blue mouse, and a red dog in a turban, its finger raised to its lips, is also strapped down nearby. Close-ups show the black cat's wide-eyed, tongue-out grimace while the red dog continues to hush the room, with tubes and white pillows visible throughout. > Shh.

The scene then shifts to a bedroom where Marge, with her tall blue beehive, lies in bed beside a blue nightstand showing a red digital clock reading 8:45, and she turns to look up with an alarmed expression, her hands gripping the edge of a brown blanket as she sits up. Notable objects include the television, a potted green plant, and the glowing clock display. > Oh, > my goodness. > Kids, Homer. We're late for church. I'm glad I dressed last night.

Marge sits on the edge of the bed, then stands beside it and gestures with her hands while Homer stays still on his pillow. Framed pictures of Bart and Lisa and of Maggie in her crib hang on the wall, and lamps stand on the blue nightstands on either side of the bed.

Marge's posture shifts slightly over the moment, moving back toward the red arched doorway as she glances away, and white credit text at the bottom reads Co-Executive Producer Steve Tompkins, then Supervising Producers Jonathan Collier, Ken Keeler and David S. Cohen, and finally Producer Richard Appel. > I'd love to go with you, honey, but I got a lot of work to do around the bed. > Homer, the Lord only asks for an hour a week. > In that case, you should have made a week an hour longer. > Lousy God. > And the very same goes for Ezekiel, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/99683.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/104896 ## 1:51–2:01 Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa sit among a packed church congregation in pews lined with red carpet, while a dark-haired man in a white jacket and blue tie speaks at a wooden lectern with a microphone beneath stained-glass windows. The scene moves from the seated crowd to the speaker at the lectern, then to a close view of him talking into the microphone, and back to the rows of attendees. On-screen credits read 'Consulting Producer IAN MAXTONE-GRAHAM', 'DAN McGRATH' and 'DAVID MIRKIN' as the scene changes. > which brings us back to our starting point, > the nine tenets of constancy.

A dark-haired man in a white vest and blue tie stands at a wooden lectern with a microphone in front of stained-glass windows, first reading from papers, then grinning and looking down at an open book. The congregation watches him throughout, with various sad or unimpressed expressions, as he flips through his materials and settles back into the sermon. > Damn it! > Ahem. > Well, I seem to have lost my place. > So I'll start over. > Aw, for the love of crumb cake. > Our sermon today is on constancy.

Bart's head droops and tilts while Lisa shuts her eyes and slumps, and Bart and Lisa then lean their heads together. The view widens to a packed church where a man in a white robe stands at a lectern beside a yellow flower arrangement in a vase, with congregants in the pews on both sides, several with eyes closed or heads bowed. > Inasmuch as the over, by dint of our application of these principles, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/135344.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/137846 ## 2:21–2:31 Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa sit in a pew at a church service, with baby Maggie in a blue bow beside Homer, while Ned Flanders in his green sweater and a bald man sit nearby. In the first frame Homer slumps with his eyes closed, Marge sits upright in her green dress and pearls, and Bart and Lisa lean their heads together asleep. Over the next moments the scene shifts to a wide view of the congregation with a semi-transparent Marge overlaid in front, and then a view from behind a preacher in a white robe with dark hair at a lectern. In the final frame Homer leans in with his mouth open toward Marge while Bart and Lisa doze against each other, and stained-glass windows and a hanging light fixture are visible behind them. The on-screen credits read 'Produced by Richard Sakai, Denise Sirkot', 'Written by Donick Cary' and 'Directed by Steven Dean Moore'. > we can learn imposes of constancy. > Sweet constancy.

Behind them, a packed church congregation sits in pews, including bald Homer in a blue suit, Marge with her tall blue beehive, and Lisa and Bart at the right edge, while a man with a moustache and glasses leans forward and the front-row people applaud with their hands together. The scene ends with the congregation clapping as the sound-effect buttons are pressed.

Homer sheds his church clothes, leaving them on the floor, until he is in an undershirt and underwear, while Lisa sits on the rug by the closet removing her pink shoes and Bart watches from beside the grandfather clock. > Oh, man, am I glad to get out of there. > Hey, calm down. > You're wrinkling your church clothes. > Who cares? > This is the best part of the week. It's the longest possible time before more church. > Church shouldn't be a chore.

Homer then steps forward in the hallway with Marge and Maggie behind him, while Lisa in her red dress and Bart in his orange shirt gather beside him. Bart raises his arm as Homer glances aside, and a Christmas tree with a tag reading GRAMPA sits at the lower left beside a purple coat on a red coat rack. > It should help you in your daily life. > It should, but it doesn't. Now, who's going with Daddy to the dump? > Me, me. > The dump? Yeah, we're going to get rid of the Christmas tree. > It's starting to turn brown. > Want to come with?

In the final frames, Ned Flanders in a pink shirt and blue tie walks past the First Church of Springfield sign, which reads 'NEXT SUNDAY, THE MIRACLE OF SHAME', while Flanders kneels with a cardboard box in his hands and Marge, in a green dress and red necklace, walks toward him. > No, no. I don't feel like going to a trash pile today. > It's your life. We'll bring you back something nice.

Outside the First Church of Springfield, Marge, with her tall blue beehive, green dress and red beads, stands with her hands clasped as he turns toward her and lifts the box. Signs reading "First Church Springfield" and "Next Sunday: The Miracle of Shame" stand beside them on the lawn, with a green lawn and a brick building behind. > Can you believe it? They give you five Qs and only two Us. > What a world. It's crazy. > So what's on your mind, Marge?

Marge leans forward holding a leafy green sprig near her face while talking, and the man sits with his hands clasped, glancing sideways and then grimacing with clenched teeth. The scene then moves in so Marge is seen from behind with her beehive in the foreground, while the man, beneath a hanging round picture, looks uneasy and tense. > Sermons about constancy and predestitute are all very well and good. > But the church could be doing so much more to reach out to people. > Oh, I don't see you volunteering to make things better.

The scene then switches to Homer, grinning with his eyes shut as he grips the steering wheel of a purple car, with brown fronds blowing in through the open window. Bart, in his orange shirt and blue shorts, struggles in the back seat to hold up a wooden board while brown fronds whirl around him. > Huh? > Okay. > I will volunteer. > I wasn't prepared for that.

In the first two frames Homer, bald and wearing a white shirt and blue pants, strains to pull a scraggly branch from the back of a pink car, which is partly visible in the foreground. Bart, in an orange shirt, is then shown buried up to his head in a pile of brown dirt in the car's rear seat area. In the last frames Bart and Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair in a red dress, stand side by side looking up at Homer, who stands with his hands on his hips near a dirt hole while a discarded bicycle and a red tin sit nearby. > It's my Christmas tree! > Okay, who's up for some scrounging?

Homer, bent over and buried to the thighs, pulls out a battered orange basketball and sand trickles from it as he holds it up. Lisa, half-buried in the trash, lifts a headless yellow doll with her left hand and then looks at it with a wide-eyed expression while the scattered debris, including a red-and-white striped cone, a crushed box and loose papers, lies around them. > Hey, here's a perfectly good basketball half. > I found a Malibu Stacy with no head.

Homer then tumbles backward into the garbage with the raccoon still clinging to him as Lisa and Bart, in his orange shirt, watch. The three finally stand together beside a pink box with printed panels lying in the dirt, surrounded by scattered litter. > Oh my god, help me, Lisa! Lisa, Dad, come here, quick! > There is something that you won't believe. > What the heck is that? > Maybe it's a box from the future.

A yellow hand points at the carton as a blue katakana speech bubble appears, then Homer pulls the carton up into view under a blue sky and stares at it with wide eyes. He then holds the carton up in front of him, where a picture of his own grinning face is printed on the side, and he looks at it in surprise. > It looks Japanese. > What's going on? > Why am I on a Japanese box? > What's that?

Homer then grimaces with bulging eyes against a pink radiating background beside a speech bubble with Japanese-style red lettering. In a wood-paneled office with bookshelves, a dark-haired man in a pink shirt and blue tie reads a large open book at a desk while Marge, with her tall blue beehive, peeks from a doorway holding a broom behind a green armchair. > Oh, my God. What is that? > All done. I swept the aisles and put all the collection plates in the dishwasher. > And you wouldn't believe how many dead pigeons there were on the organ.

LOVEJOY" and an open book. He leans over the desk, looks up at her, and gestures with his hand as they talk, then the scene cuts to a close-up of a beige desk telephone beside a green-covered book whose page shows a line of coded text and a boxed number. > Marge, you are a real time saver. Do you know, thanks to you, > I've rediscovered a form of shame that's gone unused for 700 years? > Wow.

An open book on a green stand and a box with the partial lettering "OVE JOY" sit on the desk in front of him, next to a grey tissue box. The scene then settles on a close view of a beige desk telephone with a coiled cord and keypad beside the open book, with a few lines of printed text visible on its page. > Lovejoy here. > Reverend, this is Principal Skinner. > I'm facing a crisis and I didn't know to whom to turn. > All right. > Mother has gone too far. > She's put cardboard over her half of the television. > We rented man without a face.

A nameplate on the desk reads "REV LOVEJOY" beside an open book. The man sits with his arms crossed and a sullen expression while Marge looks toward him, then he shifts to lean forward with his chin resting on his hand, looking troubled as Marge keeps her gaze on him. A bookshelf with binders and a small plant stands behind them, and a framed painting hangs on the wall. > What should I do? > Well, maybe you should read your Bible.

The desk has an open book and a nameplate reading "REV LOVEJOY". He rests his chin on his hand, glances at Marge, then leans over and studies the open book while she looks on, with a tissue box and a shelf of binders and books behind them. > Um, any particular passage? > Oh, it's all good. > All right. > Thanks anyway.

She looks wide-eyed and talks, leaning forward with her hands resting on the open pages in the later images, while a small cassette-like device sits on the desk at lower left. Her expression stays alert and surprised as she keeps speaking, and her mouth opens and closes throughout the sequence. > Reverend, I hate to say this, but it sounded like that poor man was reaching out to you. > I'm not sure your advice was all that helpful.

Hanging on the wall above is a round, ornate framed picture, and a grey telephone sits on the desk at the lower right. The man's expression shifts across the sequence: he starts with his eyes closed and mouth open while talking, then his eyes narrow in a weary look, then he grins broadly with his fingers pressed together, and finally he leans back with a thoughtful, smirking expression and his hand at his chin. > Oh, Marge, I was once idealistic like you. > It was the mid-seventies, and I was fresh out of seminary. > The 60s were long over, and people were once again ready to feel bad about themselves.

Troy McClure, the swept-back reddish-haired actor with glasses and a tan jacket, then drives a red convertible along a tree-lined road under a blue sky, one hand on the wheel and his hair blowing back as the scene moves past bushes and hills. > I came to Springfield ready to roll up my sleeves and help my fellow man.

The scene then moves to a small office with a wooden desk, red armchair and shelves, where the same man holds a mug and adjusts a tilted framed sunset painting on the wall while a moustached man in glasses and a red sweater stands behind the desk and speaks to him. A telephone sits on the desk beside a window with a view of greenery outside. > There was just one fellow man I hadn't counted on. > Reverend, I'm afraid something terrible has happened.

The collared man gestures with open hands, then lowers them and rests them clasped on the counter while he keeps talking. A green cushion and a red book sit in the foreground. > Well, sit down and rap with me, brother. > That's what I'm here for.

He sits behind the table and speaks, first with his hands resting on the table, then gesturing with both hands open in front of his chest. He grimaces, purses his lips and looks off to the side, then raises his hands in an animated gesture as he talks. No on-screen text is visible. > but my hips slipped and my buttocks came into contact with the buttocks of another > young man.

The scene then dissolves into a kitchen where a brown-haired man in a blue shirt sits at a table with a mug, talking on a green phone, while a grey-haired woman in a pink sweater and teal skirt stirs a pot on the stove, a red-and-white towel hanging from the oven handle. The office and kitchen overlap briefly before the kitchen remains alone. > I see. > Then the calls began. > I think I may be coveting my own wife.

The scene shifts to a dusk cafe under the Eiffel Tower, where a woman with a tan bouffant sips from a spoon across from a suited, brown-haired man in a purple tie who is on the phone, while a red-jacketed waiter holds a phone on a tray beside them. > but I could probably stand to be meeker. > I think I swallowed a toothpick.

He stays on the call with a weary, half-lidded expression, and the coiled phone cord hangs across the scene. The scene then changes to the same man in a pink shirt and navy tie at a table in front of a red booth, where he rests his cheek in his hand and looks bored and sleepy. > Luckily by then it was the 80s and no one noticed. > But you can't let a few bad experiences sour you on helping people.

He gets up and stands behind Marge's chair near a door, looking down, and then the chair is left empty while Marge stands beside it in the office with a plant, a window, and a white box or phone on the desk. > Oh, sure I can. > You handle it. > Me? > No, I... Wait, I can't... > Hello?

Beside him is a red cash register and a yellow Duff Beer sign, with bottles on shelves behind him. Over the moment he leans slightly forward, his mouth opening and closing as he speaks with a stern, scowling expression, and his hand rests on the bar counter throughout. > Uh, yeah, hi. I'm calling for Reverend Lovejoy. > Who is this?

The scene cuts to Moe, the grey-haired bartender, behind the bar beneath a Duff Beer sign, holding a phone to his ear and speaking with his mouth open, while bottles sit on a shelf behind him. Across the frames the split-screen cuts between the two, with Marge remaining on the phone at her desk and Moe leaning on the bar with a stool in front of him. > Oh, well, this is, um, the, uh... The listen lady. > Yeah, well, listen lady. > I got so many problems, I don't even know where to begin here. > Okay.

Across a split-screen divide, Marge, with her tall blue beehive and red beads, stands by a bar-side table and holds a phone to her ear, eyes wide and looking toward Moe. Over the course of the clip Moe's expression shifts from a glare to a closed-eyed, mid-speech look, while Marge keeps her phone at her ear and her gaze fixed to one side. A stool with a red cushion sits in the foreground, and bottles line the shelves behind the bar. > Why don't you start from the top? > Alrighty. Number one, I've lost the will to live. > That's ridiculous, Mo.

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and a green dress with a red beaded necklace, sits in a red armchair on the other side of a split-screen divide, holding a phone to her ear and looking up. In the first three images Moe talks on the phone while Marge listens, both wide-eyed and expressive. In the last image Moe leans on the bar with one hand, scowling, while Marge keeps listening with a phone pressed to her face, and a stack of books and a wall shelf appear on the right. Bottles sit on a shelf behind the bar and a bar stool stands in front of it. > You've got lots to live for. > Really? That's not what Reverend Lovejoy's been telling me. > Wow, you're good. Thanks.

Across a split-screen divide, Moe, the grey-haired bartender, stands behind a bar under a Duff Beer sign, holding a red phone receiver to his ear and gesturing. Over the frames Moe's expression shifts from shouting to a scowl as he leans toward the phone, while Marge keeps the receiver pressed to her ear and her hand on her hip. Shelves of books, a wall of bottles behind the bar, and a bar stool are visible. > Hi, it's me again. I got another problem. > This one's about my cat. > Yeah, shut up! I'm asking her.

The first frames show the whole family eating in silence while Marge looks toward Homer, then the view narrows to Marge and Homer alone at the table with their plates of spaghetti and glasses of milk. Homer turns his head toward Marge, opens his mouth to speak, and gestures with one hand as he talks, while Marge listens with a steady gaze. Framed picture on the pink wall and a kitchen counter with checkered floor in the background. > Why would you volunteer at the church? > I don't know. > Guilt? Shh. > Volunteering is for suckers.

Marge speaks and gestures with an open hand while Homer holds a pink cereal box with a starburst design, looking at it and then up at her. Marge rests her hand on her chest in one frame, then turns her head to look at Homer, who stares wide-eyed and opens his mouth in surprise. A mug rack and a small vase sit on a shelf behind them. > Well, I think volunteering is great. Deep down, it makes you feel... > Homer, will you get that crazy box off the dinner table? > It came from the dump. But Marge, I'm obsessed with it.

The box is pink and purple with Japanese katakana text reading 'ミスタースパーコル' and a speech bubble reading 'ハワーグリーン!', and it shows a cartoon image of Homer's grinning face with wide eyes. Behind them, a woman with a pearl necklace and a bearded girl-like figure in an orange top sit at the table, a green teapot sits on a shelf, and in the later frames Bart's mouth opens and closes as he keeps staring at the box. > Where did it come from? What is it a box of? > How'd my face get on it? Hey, if they got a picture of you, that means they can see you. > They're probably watching us right now. That's ridiculous.

The scene then shifts outside to The Happy Sumo, a wooden building beneath a pink neon sign of two sumo wrestlers, as a pink car pulls up at the right edge of the frame. > Nobody is watching us right now. > Hi.

Homer, in a white shirt and blue pants, sits on a bench with a pink box while Lisa in her red dress and Bart in his orange shirt watch. Homer then stands and the man takes the pink box from him, and the man reads and points at its pink label with katakana text and a cartoon image of Homer's face. > Bye. > Hi. > Akira, can you read this for me? > Ah, yes. This is a product called Mr. Sparker. > Very popular dish detergent. Hey, he looks like you.

Lisa then reaches toward the box and Homer gazes at it, as Apu lowers the box to his chest and studies its printed panels, with his mouth moving as he reads, in the wood-paneled store with a green panel on the wall. > Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. > What's he saying? > He identifies himself as a magnet for foodstuffs. > He boasts that he will banish dirt to the land of wind and ghosts. > Wow.

In the first four views he holds the box out toward Homer, who looks at it with a wary expression while Lisa gazes up at it, and the man grins and tilts the box slightly, then lifts it higher to show its front panel with its sun-like pink design and small printed label. In the final view Homer sits and gazes down at the open pink box in his hands, his mouth slightly open, as he examines the small bar of soap inside. > Yes, you have very lucky dishes, Mr. Simpson. > This soap is from the sacred forest of Hokkaido, > renowned for its countless soap factories. > Hokkaido, eh?

Before this, the scene opens on the First Church of Springfield, where a sign below its tall spire reads "The Listen Lady is In." The man keeps talking and gesturing, and Marge listens with a steady, sidelong gaze. > See, all along, I've been telling Carl I'm married to a beauty queen. > Now he's coming over for dinner. Hmm, Lenny, > I'm sure he'll like your wife no matter what she looks like. > No, no, no, no, it's worse than that. I don't even have a wife.

The man is in a cinder-block room with a closed door behind him, and a black telephone sits on the desk at the right. He first raises both hands, palms out, with his mouth open in an anxious look, then lowers them to rest on the desk, grimaces with clenched teeth, and finally extends one hand toward the desk while glancing downward with a worried, sheepish expression. > I just said I did to, you know, be a big shot.

Marge's expression shifts from uneasy to a wide, talking grin as she speaks, and the man listens with a sly smile. The scene then settles on the man standing beside a door with his hands on his hips, still smiling. > Hmm. > Well, it's time to start telling the truth. > Now, when I have to tell my husband the truth, I cook him a big, delicious dinner. > By the time he's done eating, he's too full and tired to care what I have to say.

The man then stands behind a wooden counter by a pale door against a grey brick wall, grinning, widening his eyes and opening his mouth as if speaking. He later walks down a hallway with a row of people behind him, including a man in a red sweater, a woman with a red headband, an older bald man, an elderly woman with grey curly hair, a man in a white coat with glasses, and a woman in a pink skirt, under a row of ceiling lights. > Wow, that's great. When Carl comes over, I'll stuff him till he don't know what's what.

Earlier, a one-off man in a blue suit and orange tie stands beside a red-headscarfed woman in a lavender top and an older woman with lavender curls and a purple bead necklace, who glares and then speaks while he looks on. The scene opens on the library's exterior, with a broad flight of white steps leading up to the doors marked 'Old Springfield Library'. > Seymour, I'm getting tired. > Tell them we're going next. Well, I'm not principal of the line, Mother. > And you never will be. > I'd like the phone book for Hokkaido, Japan, please.

Homer talks and gestures as the librarian reaches toward a blue book labeled JAPAN that is set on the desk beside a beige telephone. The wall sign reads 'Springfield Library Hours 8-12 7 Days A Week' and the shelf label above reads 'O 507 O 518'. > Okay. Here you go. The phone book for Hokkaido, Japan. > Thank you. > May I please use your phone? > Is it a local call? Yes.

The hand first grabs a teal Hokkaido telephone directory with a phone logo and a map of the island on its cover, then opens the directory to pages labeled E-Ei and Ei-F filled with listings. Next the hand flips the pages open toward the right, where a later section labeled Fo-fr appears, and the hand's fingers rest on the page as it settles.

Homer first leans on the open ledger, then reaches toward the computer keyboard, then picks up a telephone receiver and holds it to his ear while pointing with his other hand. Shelves of colorful books and a sign reading 'Reference' fill the background, and a posted paper schedule with typed lines hangs on the right wall. In the final moment Homer holds the phone to his ear with his head tilted while the young man glances over, and the library setting stays the same throughout.

He slowly lowers his gaze and shifts his head and hand across the sequence, appearing to listen with a bored, drowsy expression. A computer monitor sits at the left of the desk, and a wall sign listing times and words hangs at the right beside a red panel reading 0507 0318. A partial figure with green sweater stands at the far left edge.

He holds a telephone receiver to his ear with one hand while his other arm rests on the desk near a small device and an open book. In the first frames he is mostly bent over the desk, his hand moving slightly, and in the final frame he sits upright with the phone pressed to his head and his other hand resting on the desk. A computer monitor and a bulletin board with handwritten notes are visible at the edges of the scene.

Inside, uniformed workers in orange jumpsuits, one wearing glasses, check clipboards beside a conveyor belt carrying pale green blobs and pink boxes printed with the same Homer face and text. The worker with glasses then presses a button on a wall control panel with a red gauge bar, while the others keep watching the line.

Lisa, with her star-shaped spiky hair, peeks up from the left and Bart, with his spiky hair, peeks up from the right, both watching him. Homer's eyes look upward and his mouth opens and closes as he talks into the phone, with little other movement across the frames. Shelves of books, a sign reading SPRINGFIELD LIBRARY, a pair of glasses and an open book sit on the desk, and number labels such as 0507-0518 and P519-Q532 are visible on the shelf ends.

Beside him, a thin man with dark hair and red-framed glasses in a light blue "Champions of Winning, Superb!" shirt holds a large cell phone to his ear, first speaking animatedly and then smiling. Earlier, a man in an orange jumpsuit and dark-rimmed glasses stands by a wall with a small monitor and holds a large phone handset, and a sign reading "Springfield Library Hours" hangs on the wall. > Hello, > Chief. > Let's talk. Why not? > Hello? Why am I Mr. Sparkle?

The man grins, then points a finger, and Homer's expression shifts to a smug half-smile. Behind them are bookshelves, a wall sign reading "Springfield Library" with hours, an open book and a pair of glasses on the desk, and a red diagonal line slashes across the scene. > Sparkle? Well, I am Mr. Sparkle. You have many questions, Mr. > Sparkle. I send you a premium answer question 100%. > The Lord will hear your lamentations and give solace to your spirit.

In a pew below, Moe, the grey-haired man in a dark suit, raises a hand, then lowers it and closes his eyes, while a lavender-haired woman in purple, a tall brown-haired woman in a green jacket, a man in a grey hat and blue suit, and a woman in pink with auburn hair look on. The woman in pink then speaks with her mouth open, and the congregation sits in the pews around them. > The Lord homage Simpson. I ain't mad at that. > Yeah! > I see it! > Um, could we please not yell out things in the church?

He then stands on a sidewalk with his hands clasped beside an older grey-haired man in a black suit and a blue-haired woman in red glasses and a lilac dress, before a curly-haired woman in a purple suit with a belt takes his arm and walks with him past a house. In the final moment, Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stands among a crowd outside a building with a small girl in a pink dress and bow with curly black hair in front of her, while a boy with blue hair in a brown coat and a woman with a tall brown hairdo look on, and a thin, stooped man with grey hair at the sides and glasses stands in the middle of the group.

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stands at the center, hands raised near her face, while a thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, dressed in a dark suit, stands beside a brown-haired woman in a red dress, and a wrinkled old man with white tufts of hair and a man in green with suspenders stand to the left. A black-haired child with pink bows is partly visible at the bottom. The mood turns to a second group in the final frames: Principal Skinner in a dark suit with neat grey hair stands to the left, a man in a light blue suit and red tie stands beside him, and a man with teal curly hair and white bone-shaped tufts in a brown suit and purple tie gestures with both hands, while a woman with blue hair and red glasses in a pink top looks on in front of a wooden slatted wall. > One at a time! One at a time! > Now who has the most urgent problem? > I have a recurring dream in which I'm falling! > Come right this way, Mel.

The man in the white bathrobe stands with his hands clasped in front of a red-brick wall, then turns and walks away down the red-carpeted aisle of a church lined with wooden pews and stained-glass windows. > Tim, hold my calls.

He then turns toward the windows, where the glowing figure of St. Eleutherius holds a blue book, and he stares up at them in distress. > I'm a shepherd without a flock. > What have I done to lose them?

A bald man in a green robe with a halo and a brown beard then pulls at his beard, which slips partly away from his face, while looking sideways. The beard is shown detached and held in his hands as he stares off to the side. > Hmm.

Beside him, stained-glass windows show a bald, bearded saint in a red robe standing in a cauldron over flames, labeled "St. Donickus", and a bearded saint in a green robe holding his own skin, labeled "St. Bartholomew". As the man speaks, the Donickus window figure clasps his hands together and the Bartholomew figure grimaces. > The lamest reply I've ever heard. Oh, now, please. > I thought saints were supposed to be friendly. > You? > You're just lucky God isn't here.

Earlier, in a church with stained-glass windows of saints and rows of wooden pews along a red carpet, a robed figure in white walks down the aisle toward the front, while the scene then cuts to Marge at the desk. A black telephone sits on the desk throughout, and the stained-glass saint panel labeled St. Dominick shows a figure beside a cauldron. > Hello. > Listen, lady.

Her expression shifts from a sideways glance to wide-eyed concern as she talks, and in the last shot she looks ahead with a serious, pursed face. Behind her are a boombox, a grey trash can, a green wall clock and a refrigerator covered in magnets, and a potted pink flower sits on the table next to a teal cash register-style phone base. The character resembles Marge's wider cast rather than any named regular, so she is described rather than named. > Marge, people say you've got a real knack for solving problems. > Well, this is a little awkward, but Tim came home from church so despondent today. > He's just been playing with his trains all afternoon.

She grimaces, then shifts into a fixed, tight-lipped smile while still listening on the call. The scene then changes to a woman with grey-brown hair in a pink vest over a light blue shirt, who presses keys on a cash register at a wooden counter beside a trash can and a potted plant of red flowers. > We all need a little time to ourselves, Helen. > Just give him a day or two, and I'm sure he'll be back to his old dynamic self. > Okay.

Behind him a blue wall with a staircase-like backdrop and a '666' sign sits beside a toy train set, and its cars (blue, grey, and orange) slide along the track in front of him as he keeps his eyes fixed on the controller and glances sideways. > The tension H.O. scale passengers. > The dining car is closed. > Root beer is still available, but the cost is now $6.50.

Behind him stands a blue doorway with a staircase and two wooden bats on the wall, with a grey electrical box to the left and a wall outlet to the right. As the moment goes on, a row of small colored boxes in orange, blue, and white appears on the counter, an orange object appears at the left edge, and the man keeps glancing aside and fiddling with the device. > If the passengers will look to the right, you will see a sad man. > That is all.

Homer sits on the left while Lisa holds a flat box and Bart watches, and Homer then grins as he tips a pour of small white pellets from a box over his head and lap. Homer then points off to the side while Bart and Lisa hold a dark videotape and a box, with the pellets scattered on the floor and across Homer's shirt and pants. > Look, we got a package from the Mr. Sparkle Company in Japan. > It's a video tape.

Beside the pool sit a glass on a wooden deck, a potted palm, a large window, a bonsai-style tree, and a sandal on the tiled edge. > Smakuru in your home prefecture. > You have chosen wisely.

The scene then moves to a kitchen, where a woman with a short blue bob, a sleeveless green dress, pink gloves and red shoes pulls out a tray of browned, rolled food from the oven, then bites into a stick-like snack and later turns to speak while holding a small object. A pink Japanese-language cereal box bearing a cartoon image of Homer sits on the counter beside a red object. > But please, don't believe me. > Observe this kamashuro.

Homer's head is repeated in the next scene, where a woman with a short dark blue bob, a green sleeveless dress and red heels stands in a kitchen beside an oven with trays of baked goods, hands pressed to her cheeks and one leg raised, while a floating Homer head grimaces above a cabinet and sparkles drift through the room.

Over the course of the moment the women raise their arms, shake their hips and sing with their mouths open while Homer's head changes from a wide-eyed open-mouthed grin to a frown, and a small blue bird flutters in and out of view.

Homer is at first hunched and wide-eyed beside a purple cabinet with a blue device on it, then straightens to stand upright with a worried, frowning expression while the two children stay seated, sometimes wide-eyed and sometimes glancing sideways. In the final shot Homer stands on the left beside the couch with a purple lamp and a telephone on a small purple table at the left, and the kids are still perched on the couch. > Yep, there's your answer, Fishbulb.

The scene fades to black, then shows the yellow First Church of Springfield with stained glass windows and a roadside sign reading "THE LISTEN LADY IS IN."

Marge walks in from the left and stops facing him beside a wooden desk, while a white water heater, a cardboard box and an open box of red items sit nearby and a door stands at the right edge. The man gestures with one open hand as Marge clasps her hands together and looks up at him. > Yes, Marg? > Reverend, I gave Ned Flanders some bad advice. > Now he could be in real trouble. > What happened now? Did he swallow a paperclip? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1062520.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1066691 ## 17:51–17:58 Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stands at a wooden counter in a basement beside a brick wall and a white water heater, talking to an unnamed man with flat black hair, a pink shirt and a blue tie who is not one of the regulars. Marge gestures and speaks, then covers her face with both hands in distress while the man stands with his hand at his chin, looking at her. She drops her hands and gestures again as the man turns his back to the viewer with his hands clasped behind him, and cardboard boxes stack along the right edge of the scene. > No, he's disappeared. > Oh, I'm in way over my head. > I mean, where do the helpers turn when they need help? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1072947.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1074824 ## 17:58–18:08 A slim, dark-haired man in a red shirt and blue tie stands beside a white furnace in a basement while Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and green dress with red beads, sits at an organ, then rises and faces him. The man glances at the purple ductwork running into the furnace, and a glowing yellow window in the wall brightens and then fades to orange. Other objects include a wooden desk with a telephone, stacked cardboard boxes, and an open book on the organ. > Sorry. > Marge, why don't you let me handle this?

Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, then holds a grey receiver to his ear beside a blue phone booth, grimacing and then shouting into it. In the final moment he talks on the phone outside a gas station with red and blue pumps while an elderly man rides a small scooter past behind him. > Hello, church basement. > Yeah, it's Ned Flanders. > Teens have been chasing me all night. They finally stopped to gas up their scooters. > Ned, where are you? I can't see the name of the station, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1089630.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1095261 ## 18:21–18:32 Marge Simpson, with her tall blue beehive and green dress, stands at a counter beside a black telephone while a man in a pink shirt and dark tie, who resembles Ned-less background character with short dark hair, stands next to her in a plain room of grey brick walls. Marge leans toward the phone, then turns and points sharply at the man as he looks on with a tense expression. Later, a man with a brown bowl-cut hairdo, a green jacket and pink collar holds a telephone to his ear and gazes up at a tall sign reading "DISCOUNT GAS" with "REGULAR 1.49 3/4" displayed in black numerals against a bright blue sky with white clouds. > but the gas costs $1.49 and eight tenths. > Eight tenths. > Donny's Discount Gas.

The car arrives at the station's pumps, then Marge stands near the pumps and watches a man in a blue cap and brown jacket by the open garage doorway, while Lisa is beside her. Donny's Discount Gas sign, red-and-white pumps, a blue door and stacked tires are visible, with the red car parked behind Marge and Lisa at the end. > Thanks for swinging by the house, Reverend. > Donnie? What? > Did you see a man being chased by some young hooligans? > I see lots of stuff. > Did you see that? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1113821.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1118200 ## 18:43–18:52 Marge with her tall blue beehive and Lisa in a red dress stand by a doorway as a man in a blue cap and red jacket, cigarette in his mouth, counts money outdoors, then Homer and Bart stand beside a thin man with dark hair in a pink shirt and tie near a red-and-white pillar. The scene moves to the wrought-iron gate of the City Zoo, where Homer, a woman with a reddish-brown bob, and a person in a purple beanie ride small minibikes past ostriches along a fenced path with a sign on the rail. Homer's face turns a sickly green as the three keep riding. > Yes. > Looks like we lost him. Yeah, well, we proved our point. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1124874.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1128002 ## 18:52–19:04 Homer, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt and blue shorts, rides a small green-seated mini bike on the right, alongside a woman with a bobbed reddish-brown haircut in an olive-green top on the left and a figure in a purple knit hat and black shirt with a white emblem in the middle. They ride in a line along a dirt path beside a wooden rail fence, with a chalkboard-style sign behind Homer and a green-and-white map or poster on the wall. The middle rider grits his teeth and scowls, then grins, while Homer turns his head, opens his mouth to speak, and raises a small green object in one hand. As they keep riding, Homer squints with his eyes shut and grimaces, and ostriches stand in the pen behind the fence under a blue sky with trees. > He'll think twice next time he tries to defend his business. > I'm sleepy. > Let's go to school. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1133424.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1138429 ## 19:04–19:17 Ned Flanders, in his green sweater, glasses and moustache, stands before a dam and bushes with a hand pressed to his chest, then opens his mouth wide and raises both hands in alarm. Homer, Bart, Lisa, Marge and a man in a red shirt and dark trousers stand before a signpost reading AARDVARK PAARK, THE EMU EXPERIENCE, HABITAT FOR HUGE MANATEES, BABOON COUNTY, USA and Elephant Cage, and they gradually raise their hands to their cheeks and mouths in dismay. Their hands stay pressed to their faces as they stare ahead. > They're leaving. > The ordeal is open. > Mr. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1145728.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1151359 ## 19:17–19:31 Homer, the bald man with stubble in a white shirt, stands facing a black-haired woman in a pink top and purple shorts who raises a dark camera to her eye, while a young man in a lavender polo and tan slacks stands beside her. The young man grins and points at Homer, and Homer gestures with open hands as they talk on a paved walkway by a fence and a willow tree. The scene then shifts to Homer at the left, Marge with her tall blue beehive in a green dress, and Bart in an orange shirt, all in front of a sign post reading "AARDVARK PAARK," "THE EMU EXPERIENCE," "HABITAT FOR HUGE MANATEES," and a partly visible "ELEPHANT" sign, before Lisa, with her star-shaped hair and white pearls, steps forward and points off to the side with wide eyes. > Spocketer! Mr. Spocketer! > Konnichiwa. > That came from Baboon County, USA!

Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, is trapped in the pit, surrounded by a troop of snarling brown monkeys with bared teeth. In the first frames he leans against a tree trunk while the monkeys close in and circle him, then in the later frames he stands with his arms folded and his clothes torn, the monkeys crowding around his legs, while a tire hangs from a rope on the right. > Oh, help! What do I do? Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1172421.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1173673 ## 19:35–19:46 Homer cups his hands around his mouth and shouts beside Lisa, whose eyes are wide, against a bright blue sky with a white cloud. Bart, arms spread and mouth open, stands at a wooden railing while Marge, with her blue beehive, first raises a fist and then grits her teeth with arms folded. Marge then stands beside a moustached man in a grey jacket and a black cap printed with "ZOO" as he gapes, all against the same blue backdrop. > Play, Dad! > No! Run around in circles! > No, act like a lion! Swipe with the dominant male! > Come on, Ned, knock that monkey down! > Jumping kangaroo rats!

Later, Carl, a Black man in a grey suit and black hat, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and red beads, lean on a wooden railing and watch as the tire hangs from a dead tree among a troop of brown monkeys that climb and reach for it. The tire, rope and tree are the prominent objects, with a raised walkway curving across the background. > You've got to get him out of there! Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1187436.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1189105 ## 19:51–20:02 Lisa, Homer, Bart and Marge stand in a row at a wooden railing overlooking a dirt drop, with a mustached man in a grey jacket and a black cap marked ZOO beside them under a blue sky. Lisa grimaces and Bart's mouth hangs open in alarm, while Marge raises one hand in a gesture near her chest. Their expressions shift from wary to anxious as they keep looking out over the railing. > Geez, I'd like to, but if they don't kill the intruder, it's really bad for their society. > They're gonna kill him? Eventually. > First, they'll eat his skin. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1192858.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1197029 ## 20:02–20:12 Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, rides a large black tire swing hanging from a rope above a pit, while a group of brown baboons with blue faces work the rope and reach upward from below. A baboon on a pale log pulls and ties the rope, and others crouch and reach up at the swing as it swings over a grey stone and a brown bear-like creature with an open mouth. The scene ends with a baboon on the log clutching a blue cup and baring its teeth, against a beige rock wall and a blue sky with green trees. > Tell Maud I want a fancy funeral, big coffin, lots of jewels. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1203285.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1207456 ## 20:12–20:24 Marge, Bart, Homer and Lisa stand at a wooden fence watching a troop of brown baboons on a grassy slope below a tall cliff, where one baboon swings on a tire hanging from a bare tree branch, and Marge turns to the viewer with a nervous grin. Snarling baboons with open mouths then charge across the green grass, while a man with a moustache in a pink shirt and blue trousers sprawls across the front of a red miniature train rounding a curved trestle track and reaches one arm out. > Look! > It's Robert Lovejoy! > Thank heavens! > Entrust your hand to mine, Ned. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1213713.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1218718 ## 20:24–20:34 Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, dangles from a wooden ledge while a man in a pink shirt and blue tie, with dark swept-back hair, grips his hand from atop a red toy locomotive. Earlier, a frayed rope hangs over the beam beside a hairy brown limb with black claws, and a pale blue face peeks above, while a group of brown baboons with blue-grey faces crouch and stand on a green shore below a cliff. Ned then scrambles up and settles onto the toy train's cab beside the man, which chugs along a wooden trestle past a pink carriage with a teal window, with grey smoke rising from its stack. > Oh, thank the Lord. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1225599.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1229562 ## 20:34–20:46 Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, and Milhouse, with blue-black hair, glasses-free face and pink shirt and tie, ride side by side in a red-and-blue cart on a steep tracked mountain railway. In the first images Ned gestures with one hand while Milhouse smiles calmly beside him. Ned then turns and shouts, arms flung out, as a brown baboon appears on the track ahead by the orange station building. Milhouse leans forward and yells back at Ned, who is looking toward him, while a rocky cliff wall rises beside them. In the last images Milhouse stands up in the cart, grimacing and gesturing at the rock face, with a grey-and-red metal contraption and a yellow object in the cart, and a baboon sits in the orange station ahead on the stacked track steps. > He's truly watching over... > Say your prayers, you heathen baboons! Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1235818.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1240406 ## 20:46–20:59 Ned Flanders, in a green sweater with a moustache and glasses, drives a small red locomotive along a cliff-side track while a man in a pink shirt and tie rides in the blue car behind him. A giant brown baboon climbs blue stairs beside the track, and a brown dog sits in the first car near an orange station building. The train rounds the curve, with the man waving and gesturing, and passes under a wooden arch reading "LEAVING BABOON COUNTY USA" with palm trees and a rock wall nearby. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1247288.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1252710 ## 20:59–21:03 Homer, Bart, Marge and Lisa stand in a row behind a wooden fence against a bright blue sky with white clouds and green bushes. Homer on the left stares blankly with his mouth closed, while Bart, in his orange shirt, looks up and then turns his eyes sideways. Marge, with her tall blue beehive, shifts her gaze, and in the final image she lifts one arm outward as Lisa, in her red dress and pearl necklace, glances toward the side with a wary expression. The scene shows the family leaning or standing at the railing with no visible text or objects beyond the fence and foliage. > Oh, those poor monkeys. > They started it. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1260217.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1261260 ## 21:03–21:15 Ned Flanders, in a green sweater with a moustache and glasses, sits behind a pink car-like structure while a black-haired man in a pink shirt and blue tie stands at its side. They talk outside a wooden fence beside a red mailbox, with green bushes and trees behind them. The standing man gestures with one hand and then leans in with a stern, frowning expression as Flanders looks up at him, while the rest of the scene stays still. > You saved me, Reverend. > You really went above and beyond. > Thank you. > Oh, don't thank me. Thank Marge Simpson. > She taught me that there's more to being a minister than not caring about people. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1264597.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1269393 ## 21:15–21:27 Ned Flanders, with his moustache, glasses and green sweater, sits beside a dark-haired man in a pink shirt and blue tie inside a pink rail cart at a wooden fence, the two talking and gesturing while Ned's expression shifts from wide-eyed to half-closed. The cart then rolls along the track through the arch reading "ENTERING BABOON COUNTY USA" between tall rock walls, with the two riding together until the cart shrinks into the distance down the rails. > Amen. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1276275.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1281280 ## 21:27–21:36 Homer, Marge, Lisa, Maggie, Bart, and Carl sit among a packed congregation in the pews of First Church of Springfield, along with a dark-haired man in a white shirt and blue tie. The scene opens on the church's sign reading "Today's Sermon: Conquest of the County of the Apes," then moves inside to a robed preacher at a pulpit beneath stained-glass windows, with rows of worshippers on either side of a red carpet. The camera-free view then closes in on the pews as the people in front, mouths open, lean forward and react in alarm while the preacher speaks. > Baboons to the left of me, baboons to the right. > The speeding locomotive tore through a sea of inhuman fangs. > A pair of the great apes rose up at me, But biff-bam, Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1288162.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1291916 ## 21:36–21:50 A man with swept-back dark hair, wearing a white robe over a shirt and tie, preaches behind a wooden podium with a microphone in front of a colorful stained-glass window with a small blue box hanging on the podium and yellow shrubs at the bottom. He gestures expansively with his arms, spreading them wide, then gesturing with his hands near the microphone while speaking. He grows visibly angry, pointing sharply to the side with a scowl, then ends with a squinting, skeptical expression and a hand gesture at the podium. > I sent them flying like two hairy footballs. > A third came screaming at me. > And that's when I got mad. Frame: https://ultrahouse3k.com/img/S08E22/1297755.jpg Page: https://ultrahouse3k.com/episode/s08e22-in-marge-we-trust/1303594 ## 21:50–21:54 Homer in a blue suit and green tie, Marge with her tall blue beehive and pearl necklace, and Maggie with a pacifier and blue bow stand together in a pew, while Bart in an orange shirt and Lisa in a red dress are seen at the edges and Grampa with white tufts peeks behind them. In the first three moments Homer gestures with his hand, grins and leans forward while Marge and Maggie watch, all wide-eyed. In the last two, the scene pulls back to show a church interior with a red carpet aisle, stained glass windows, and a preacher in white robes with a gold pattern at a wooden lectern, with rows of congregants in the pews. > Now that's religion.

First, gold text reading "Executive Producers BILL OAKLEY & JOSH WEINSTEIN" is centered on the black background and fades out to darkness. Then "Executive Producers JAMES L.

Gold stylized text first reads 'YEARDLEY SMITH', then 'and HARRY SHEARER' appears beneath a small 'and', followed by 'Special Guest Voice GEDDE WATANABE' in the center. The final stretch shows an 'Also Starring' list of PAMELA HAYDEN, DENICE KUMAGAI, TRESS MACNEILLE, KAREN MARUYAMA and MAGGIE ROSWELL stacked in gold letters, which stays unchanged across the last two moments.

A purple beam of light sweeps across the room as the words GRACIE FILMS appear on the screen, then the scene shifts to a golden 20th CENTURY FOX TELEVISION logo rising against a blue sky with searchlight beams, with the line A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY beneath it.
