## 0:00–0:12

Bart Simpson, the boy with spiky hair in an orange shirt and blue shorts, stands at a classroom chalkboard writing the line "MY BUTT DOES NOT DESERVE A WEBSITE" over and over while the chalk-written lines fill the board. In the frames that follow he turns to face the viewer with a grin, then runs away from the chalkboard across the room past a red trash can and desks toward a door, as the words on the board remain partly visible. The opening frames show a blue sky with drifting clouds and the title text "THE SIMPSONS" appearing in orange letters before the classroom scene begins.

## 0:12–0:22

Bart leaps over the pink car in the driveway of the yellow house while Homer, in a white shirt and blue jeans, stands beside the car and Lisa in her red dress rides a red bicycle loaded with books past him. Homer then rushes into a purple room with a red bed, a wall panel and cardboard boxes, staring wide-eyed and reaching toward the wall before dashing out through a doorway. The moment ends with black looping scribbles on a blue background, then a dark screen, then a pale shape on a navy background.

## 0:22–0:29

Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart and Maggie Simpson appear in a sunny field of pink daisies under a smiling red sun in a blue sky, first as a drawn-out sketch of faces and then as the full family. Marge, with her tall blue beehive, stands beside Homer in his white shirt, Lisa is in her red-dressed outfit with a pearl necklace, Bart in his orange shirt, and Maggie in blue with a pacifier and blue bow. The family sinks into the sandy ground until only their heads and shoulders show, and a small pink daisy sprouts in front of them as the sun keeps smiling overhead.

## 0:29–0:36

No regular characters appear; the scene is a pink-framed retro television set with a blue screen, shown as a title card. The first frames read 'CREATED BY MATT GROENING' in yellow letters centered on the screen, and the set remains still. Later the text changes to 'DEVELOPED BY JAMES L. BROOKS, MATT GROENING, SAM SIMON' in yellow letters on the same blue screen, with the television unchanged around it. The on-screen credits are the only notable elements, and no one moves.

## 0:36–0:43

No recognizable Simpsons characters appear; the scene shows a wide landscape of rust-red mountains, blue-grey peaks under a yellow-green sky, dense green shrubs, and a blue stream winding past large white boulders in the foreground. A small walled settlement of tiny buildings sits in a green clearing on the right, and a few red-leafed plants dot the lower left. The view fades in from black, then the scene slowly shifts across the landscape, with the mountains and the clearing sliding progressively leftward and the foreground stream and rocks moving out of the frame edge as the view drifts. No on-screen text is visible.

## 0:43–0:51

Homer, the bald, heavy man in a yellow shirt, is seen first only as a tiny figure in a village of rounded, tan clay houses set among green trees and a blue river. The view glides across the village, past its winding paths and wooden structures, then closes in on a circular plaza ringed by a wall of pink, brown and white donut-shaped stalls. Homer stands in the open plaza between wooden benches and a wooden archway, with stacked donut-like objects around him, and the scene ends with a dissolve that fades the village image into the plaza view.

## 0:51–0:57

Homer Simpson stands barefoot in a torn brown loincloth in the center of a courtroom-like arena on the Planet of the Donuts, facing a crowd of anthropomorphic donut and pastry figures seated on benches. In the foreground, a white frosted donut with sprinkles, wearing black boots, sits in the middle of a bench row beside a pink donut and a blue donut, and he speaks and grimaces with an angry expression. The mouths of the spectators and the white sprinkled donut move as they talk, and a caption reading 'Co-Executive Producer GREG DANIELS' appears over the bottom of the scene in the later frames.

> Homer Simpson,
> you stand accused of eating half the population of the Planet of the Donuts.

## 0:57–1:09

Homer stands on a grassy hillside, looking wary, amid an angry crowd of anthropomorphic hot dogs, donuts with white sprinkles, and a pink donut wearing a blue polka-dot bow tie. The crowd jostles and raises clenched fists while the pink donut talks, and a pink hot dog with a leafy green garnish turns to Homer and grins as he looks back at it. On-screen credits reading CO-EXECUTIVE PRODUCER GEORGE MEYER and SUPERVISING PRODUCER MIKE SCULLY appear over the scene.

> As Hermes defense attorney, I feel we should be messi- Hey!
> Did you just take a bite out of me?
> Um, maybe. I sent you to death!

## 1:09–1:14

Homer, in a brown loincloth and blue collar, stands in a sandy arena while a sprinkled white donut with grey eyebrows and a yellow-and-blue headband, along with a pink donut with a bow tie, watches from the stands and a table of donut spectators. In close-up, the angry white donut shouts and grips a wooden beam while a pink donut scowls beside him, then the scene widens so Homer walks across the sand as a large shadow looms over the ground, with the on-screen credits reading 'Supervising Producer STEVE TOMPKINS' and then 'Co-Producers DAVID S. COHEN BRENT FORRESTER'.

## 1:14–1:21

Homer, wearing only a loincloth and clutching a small stick, stands before a huge brown drooling monster with rows of fangs and a crowd of pink and tan lumpy creatures behind it. The monster glares, leans over him, and then Homer climbs onto its raised arm and is swallowed into its open mouth, while the creature smacks its lips with closed eyes. The scene then cuts to Homer in a white shirt and tie, slumped in a chair with his eyes shut and mouth open, tears on his cheek.

> Um...
> Omar...

## 1:21–1:28

Homer Simpson sits in a blue chair at a control console, crying with his mouth open and clutching his pink-striped tie while a thin one-off man with dark swept-back hair, a green sweater and purple suspenders leans over him and grips his tie. Homer then stops crying, grins, and raises his fists and then flings his arms wide as the man watches beside him. White on-screen credits reading 'Producers Jonathan Collier Ken Keeler' appear over the lower middle of the scene.

> Omar, wake up! It's time for a coffee break.
> Yep, I earned it.

## 1:28–1:33

Homer, in a white shirt and pink tie, rises into view through a square opening in a purple tiled wall, beside a brown pipe with green goo on it. He grimaces, widens his eyes, and opens and closes his mouth while a bright white light panel glows behind him, then a blue translucent splash engulfs him and turns his face purple-grey. The splash spreads and bulges outward across the opening as he stays in place, with his mouth open in a wince.

> Doughnuts.
> Wow, there's only one doughnut left.

## 1:33–1:43

Homer, in a white shirt and pink tie, stands at a plant control counter beside a thin man with messy brown hair, a green sweater and purple suspenders, and a Black man in a grey coat over a pink sweater. Homer holds a pink box marked DONUTS, takes out a donut, and bites it while the men look on, then raises the donut and later presses it into a slot in a beige wall panel beneath a green gauge with a red needle. Consulting producer credits (David M. Stern, David Mirkin, Ian Maxtone-Graham) pass over the lower part of the scene.

> Yeah, you drooled all over it, yeah.
> Gentlemen, there's only one solution.
> We place this last doughnut in the reactor core, exposing it to radiation,

## 1:43–1:49

Homer Simpson stands behind a control panel with blue valve handles inside a control room window, while Ned Flanders in a green sweater with a moustache and glasses and Carl, a Black man in a white lab coat and pink sweater, watch beside him. In the first frames Homer turns a valve and talks with his mouth open, then the view shifts to a consultant with a bald head, grey hair at the sides and a teal tie, identified by an on-screen caption reading Consultant John Swartzwelder. That man, who is very thin and stooped, gestures with an open hand toward the others while Carl and Ned look on. In the last frames the consultant keeps gesturing and then the room is shown empty, with a red-cross First Aid cabinet, a fire extinguisher and a metal bin visible, as the speakers have left the scene.

> thereby making it big. Yeah, it worked on my hand.
> Oh wait, it's this hand.
> Whoa!

## 1:49–2:00

Homer Simpson and Lenny with spiky black hair, plus Carl in a grey jacket and pink shirt, work at a plant control room as a claw lowers a glazed donut over a green dome, and Homer's eyes bulge as he hits the knobs. The scene then cuts to the power plant's chimney ablaze, marked by the caption "Ten Minutes Later". White-suited firefighters spray foam at a burning reactor while a suited worker walks across the floor holding the donut on a line, and Mr. Burns in a dark suit watches as a crowd of workers, Homer among them, looks on.

> Uh, sir, we found the problem. Some idiot threw this in the reactor core.

## 2:00–2:08

Mr. Burns, the frail, very thin, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, stands on a rooftop with tanks behind him while a figure in a white hazmat suit holds a pair of tongs. Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt and pink striped tie, raises a small charred object on the tongs and then holds it between his hands, while Burns scowls, shakes his fist, and points at him. Smoke drifts up from the object, and a 'Produced by J. Michael Mendel' credit appears over the scene for a few frames before the view narrows to Homer alone, staring wide-eyed as he clutches the blackened item in his hands.

> Success!
> You did this? How could you be so irresponsible?
> Uh, it's my first day. Since I've never seen you before, maybe it is your first day.

## 2:08–2:16

Mr. Burns, a frail, stooped old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, and his thin assistant Smithers in a white radiation suit and glasses stand in a grey plant room with blue pipes along the wall. Burns rubs his chin and grins slyly while Smithers lifts a white helmet overhead and then holds it at his chest, and Burns later presses a hand to his ear with his eyes shut before glancing sideways with a scowl as Smithers speaks with his mouth open. The on-screen credits shift from 'Produced by Richard Raynis' to 'David Silverman' and then 'Richard Sakai'.

> Very well, carry on.
> Uh, sir, that's Homer Simpson. He's been working here for ten years.
> Oh, really? Why did you think you could lie to me?

Mr. Burns, a frail, thin old man with a hooked nose and grey hair at the sides, in a dark suit, stands beside Smithers, his thin assistant with glasses in a white protective suit, while Homer, in a white shirt and pink tie, holds a small brown object near a chain-link fence topped with barbed wire. Burns scowls at Smithers, then turns and gestures with his hands, shrugs, and pulls at his lapels before jabbing a finger toward Homer and shouting. On-screen credits read 'Produced by Richard Sakai,' 'Written by Joshua Sternin & Jeffrey Ventimilia,' and 'Directed by Milton Gray.'

> It's my first day. Well, why didn't you say...
> Whoa!
> You're fired!

## 2:24–2:25

No characters are visible in this moment; the Simpson house stands on its green lawn under a clear blue sky, with its brown roof, chimney, arched windows, front door, attached garage, yellow picket fence, and a blue mailbox at the curb. Across all six images the scene stays completely still, with no movement, actions, or on-screen text, and the only details are the house, the trees, the purple tree in the yard, and the neighboring houses at the right edge.

> Oh, fired. I can't believe it.

Homer Simpson, in light blue pajamas and brown furry slippers, lounges on a red couch in the living room, holding a blue remote, while Lisa Simpson, in a teal dress, sits on the floor at the right edge reading a magazine titled Junior Skeptic. Homer starts with his head tilted back and mouth open, then slumps into a drowsy pose with his eyes closed, and then his eyes open again as he stares sideways in a glazed, idle expression. A purple lampshade lamp, a teal rotary phone on a side table, and a framed picture on the wall sit in the background.

Homer Simpson, the bald, heavy man in a light blue shirt, slumps back on a red couch in the living room, holding a blue remote control, while Lisa, the girl with star-shaped spiky hair, sits at the lower right reading a magazine labeled 'JUNIOR'. A purple lamp, a turquoise telephone and a pink wall fill the background. Homer's eyes shift and he stares ahead, then his mouth opens as if speaking, and in the final frames he smirks with his eyes glancing sideways while he keeps holding the remote.

Several uniformed sailors in white with black neckerchiefs appear first on a ship's bridge: a man in a tan uniform and cap raises binoculars while a sailor with a clipboard stands beside him, and a grey warship sails across a pinkish sunset sea shown on a television-style screen. Next, a tan-uniformed officer and a sailor in white turn a hose reel on a metal deck, then two sailors in white spray hoses at a golden statue of a mustached man in a plumed hat on a pedestal, with houses and a blue sky behind them. The moment ends with a heavyset sailor in a white cap spraying a hose at the statue's side under a bright sky.

> Daybreak. Jakarta.
> The proud men and women of the Navy are fighting for freedom.
> But you're in Lubbock, Texas, hosing stains off a monument.

## 2:52–3:03

Homer, bald and heavy in a light blue shirt, slouches on a red couch beside a teal phone and purple lamp while Lisa, with star-shaped spiky hair, reads a Junior Skeptic magazine next to him. The scene opens on a TV showing a white-uniformed sailor in a cap aiming a hose at a house, cuts back to the living room, then returns to the TV, where a sailor opens a US NAVAL RESERVE sign beside a truck tire and two men in white uniforms haul and hold crates marked CHIPS and BEER.

Homer Simpson, bald and wearing a light blue pajama-style outfit, sits on the edge of a red couch in a pink living room beside a purple lamp and a teal telephone, while Lisa, with star-shaped spiky hair, a red dress and a string of pearls, sits beside him reading a magazine labeled Junior Skeptic. Homer talks, gestures with one open hand, and scowls, then grins and gestures with a fist, while Lisa glances up at him and then back at her reading. Near the end Homer stands with a fist raised and a hand on his hip, facing the room in front of the lamp and couch.

> You know, Lisa, I've taken a lot from this country.
> Maybe it's time I gave something back. Are you thinking of joining the Naval Reserve?
> Would you be proud of me? Eh, sort of. Then I'll do it

Homer, the bald heavy man in a white shirt, sits at a desk in a recruiting office filling out a form while a uniformed recruiter with short brown hair, a long nose and sergeant's stripes on his tan uniform sits across from him, with an Uncle Sam 'Want You' poster and an American flag behind them. Outside, the storefront sign reads 'The Naval Reserve: It's not just a job... it's a really easy job,' beside an open door, a blue van and a red stain on the sidewalk. As Homer scribbles and gapes wide-eyed, the recruiter glances sideways with a strained, uneasy expression, his mouth opening and closing as he speaks.

> Just fill out this form and you're on your way to the reserve.
> There's a question that's crossed out Well due to a recent presidential order we're not
> allowed to ask that particular question Well, I think I can make it out are you a homosex?

## 3:28–3:42

Homer Simpson, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt, sits at a wooden desk reading a paper at first, then sits up and turns to a recruiting officer in a grey-brown uniform with a small medal, a man with short dark hair, who stands behind the desk in front of an Uncle Sam 'I Want You' poster and a flag of stars and stripes. Homer hands over the form, and the officer's expression turns alarmed as he raises both hands in protest and then clamps them over his ears, while Homer stares at him with a worried look. The officer keeps his hands over his ears as Homer stands in front of the desk, and the poster's 'NOW!' text is visible, with a dark box on the desk. Homer's mouth opens in an exclamation before he is left standing, looking puzzled, as the officer's view is blocked and the scene fades on Homer's wide-eyed expression.

No characters appear in this moment; the Simpson family house stands empty at night beneath a crescent moon and a star-filled purple sky. Its lit upstairs window and pink front door glow while the pink garage door stays closed, and nothing moves across the scene. A white mailbox sits by the front walkway, with a pink picket fence along the yard.

Homer, the bald, heavy man in a white shirt, and Marge, with her tall blue beehive and pink top, are in their dim blue bedroom at night. Homer first stands beside the bed, then sits on it and pulls up the grey blanket while Marge sits up, looking worried. He talks and gestures with a raised palm and then an open arm toward the pleated-shade lamp on the nightstand, grinning before leaning back against the pillow as Marge watches, with a framed picture of Bart and Lisa on the wall behind them.

Homer, a bald heavy man in a white shirt, and Barney, a heavy drunk with messy brown hair, are at the bar with Moe, the grey-haired bartender. The scene opens on a dark house at night, where a wrapped object smashes through a bay window, scattering glass across the lawn, before moving to the outside of Moe's with its yellow sign. Inside, Moe pours beer from the taps while Homer holds up a mug and talks, and Barney leans on the bar beside him.

> Nighty night.
> Well, guys, I won't be seeing you for a while.
> Where are you going?
> I've joined the Naval Reserve.

Over several moments Apu talks and grins, and Moe, the grey-haired bartender in a blue apron, slides in with a mug and a towel; Homer and Barney each hold beer mugs on the wooden bar, with a Duff Beer sign and a dartboard on the wall behind them. Near the end, Homer leans in with a wide grin and reaches across to clink his mug against Barney's and Moe's, while Barney smiles and Apu watches, all of them ending the scene in good cheer over their beers.

Homer's face and mouth shift from a wide-eyed grin to a slack-jawed look as he speaks, and Moe glances sideways and mutters with a white towel in hand while Apu keeps a steady gaze. Beer mugs sit on the wooden bar, a 'Duff Beer' sign and a dartboard hang on the wall, and a row of clean mugs rests on a shelf at the right.

Krusty the Clown, in a red headband, lavender outfit and bow tie, sits at a table across from a suited man with an eyepatch and a cigarette and a red-headbanded man in a brown hat, with a row of suited mobsters watching behind them and a revolver on the table; Moe, in a grey-haired bartender's apron, steps in to gesture while Krusty's expression shifts. The scene cuts to a blue BUS DEPOT sign beside a white bus marked U.S. NAVAL RESERVE, where Homer with a suitcase stands on the sidewalk with Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie as a heavy man waits in the bus doorway and a couple embraces at the right. Homer raises a hand in farewell as a passenger boards the bus.

> Diddy Ma!

Marge, with her tall blue beehive and beaded necklace, stands with baby Maggie in a blue bow and Lisa in a red dress near the bus. Homer turns away with a scowl, then throws his arms wide in an emphatic gesture, while the family watches. Later Homer crouches down, reaching toward a sack and a coiled rope on the curb, as Lisa and Bart look on, and a light blue car drives along the street.

Beside him, a stern man in a tan uniform shirt with a small ribbon bar and a wide-brimmed black hat with a gold badge speaks through a frown, then narrows his eyes and clenches his teeth in a scowl. The scene shows Homer's expressions shifting from talkative to smug and the uniformed man's irritation growing in front of the same building and sky.

Bart scowls, then his eyes tear up as he steps forward, points an accusing finger and flings his other arm out toward his father, and the scene then cuts to Homer and Lisa at the table with plates of food, Homer slumping with his arms folded on the tabletop before sitting back upright with his arms crossed and a sour expression. Purple cabinets, a green refrigerator, a blender, a spice rack and a checkered floor fill the kitchen.

> Well, I'm keeping this earring and you can't stop me.
> Oh, I always thought Lisa would be the one to get her ears pierced.
> Can I? No!
> Time to reap the benefits of being cool.

Bart and Lisa walk along a sidewalk beside a tan brick building and green bushes, with Bart in his orange shirt and blue shorts and Lisa in her orange skirt, pearl necklace and blue backpack. Bart gestures with his hands while they pass a group on a lawn, where Nelson, in an orange shirt and blue vest, stands with other kids, several of them wearing earrings. Back on the sidewalk by a fence and trees, Bart keeps gesturing and talking as Lisa looks on, holding her backpack straps.

He grimaces, then gestures with one hand, and the view widens to a naval base with a grey warship, cranes and rows of houses. Finally, a drill sergeant in a black campaign hat speaks at a wooden podium to a line of white-capped recruits in blue uniforms.

> My neck hurts and my ear hurts. I have two owies.

Homer, in a blue uniform and white sailor cap, stands among uniformed sailors before a rainy dock where a submarine floats in the water, then in a brown coat and navy cap with gold bars he waits under a corrugated shelter with other men in brown coats. Lisa in an orange hooded raincoat and red boots walks up to him while Marge, Bart and Maggie with her pacifier watch nearby, and Homer crouches down to hug her. He grins and squeezes her tightly as she clings to him, with rain falling outside the shelter.

The scene then shifts to a rainy outdoor setting with a water tower and small buildings behind them: Homer in the brown coat and blue cap faces Marge, who wears a long grey-violet raincoat and tall blue beehive, while Maggie in a pink hat and pink coat clings to her side. Homer reaches out with his hand to touch Marge's coat, then lowers his hand and gestures with a closed fist toward her, sharing a sideways look with her, while Maggie looks up at them.

Homer returns to the rain alone, one hand on his cheek before folding his arms and glaring, with a blue mailbox-like object visible at the edge of the scene.

Wine bottles, glasses of red wine, a salad bowl, bread, butter, and pink-rimmed plates crowd the white tablecloth. The officer in white speaks and gestures while sipping his wine, then sets the glass down and leans toward Homer, who listens with wide eyes before the officer's hand reaches out toward the table as the moment ends.

Homer Simpson, bald and heavyset in a blue cap with a gold emblem and a tan uniform with a white undershirt, stands beside a woman with a short platinum-blonde bob and tan uniform with shoulder epaulettes, in a cramped interior with blue zigzag-patterned upholstery and an overhead light. Homer holds an orange pencil, first resting it against his lips and looking thoughtful, then speaking with his mouth open and gesturing with it, and later lowering it to a spiral notepad he holds while she stands with pursed lips and a flat expression. The notepad's spiral binding and the pencil are the main props, and the woman's expression stays largely unchanged as Homer talks and writes.

> Yes, he is handsome in an ugly sort of way.
> Captain, how are we supposed to get home with no equipment?
> Don't worry, I've been working on it.
> Yes, uh-huh.
> Carry the two.

No regular characters are visible; this is a close view of a spiral notepad held by a yellow cartoon hand, with a pencil drawing on its page. The drawing shows a shark-like creature with a jagged open mouth and a speech bubble reading "Yarrrgh!" beside a tiny figure standing on a submarine-like shape in the waves. Across the moment, the pencil tip moves slightly as the small figure and the shark drawing shift only marginally, while a stick-figure swimmer with a bubble-filled pail sinks in the lower right. The background is black and the drawing is shown in a static, fixed position throughout.

Homer Simpson, in a tan uniform and blue cap with a gold-striped badge and holding a spiral notepad, stands beside a blonde bob-haired woman in a matching tan uniform inside a cramped control room with blue zigzag-patterned seats and panels. Homer lifts his hand toward his cap, shuts his eyes and speaks, then turns to look sternly at a short-haired black-haired man in a tan uniform, who grimaces, speaks, and then gazes sideways while Homer frowns. A reddish-haired figure works at a console in the background, and the man's blank white name tag is visible on his chest.

> All right, I can't waste any more time. People's lives are depending on me.
> Mr. Sulu, make a left.
> Aye, aye, Captain.
> Setting course for Rigel 7. I mean, home.

No characters appear in these frames; the scene is an animated map with no regular or one-off people visible. A dotted chain-like line with a small segment at its tip traces a curving path across a pale grey-blue map with latitude and longitude lines, first near the coast beside the label SPRINGFIELD HARBOR on the green sea edge, then the trail extends and bends toward the top-left while the map pans, and later the view shifts to a yellow eight-pointed compass rose marked N with the same dotted line running from it down and to the right, which then curves upward as the line keeps moving. On-screen text reads SPRINGFIELD HARBOR and a compass N.

No regular Simpsons characters appear; this is an animated map-style title sequence with a blue globe-like grid, a yellow compass rose marked N, and a dashed white route line. Green cartoon sea serpents with striped purple-and-white tails appear at the top and then slide across the screen in the early frames, while the words RUSSIAN WATERS in white serif capitals sit on the blue background. As the sequence progresses the serpents pass out of view, the title drifts and shifts position across the screen, the dashed route curves and recedes, and the background fades from blue to dark purple and navy.

On a purple-framed TV screen, grey-haired anchor Kent Brockman in a red jacket and blue tie reads from a sheet of paper, blinking, grimacing and gaping beside a framed photo of a man in a fur hat holding a bottle. Back in the room, Marge gasps with her mouth wide open, then Lisa narrows her eyes and grimaces while Maggie, sucking her pacifier, looks on.

Grampa, the wrinkled old man with white tufts of hair, beige coat and white button, stands before a microphone held by an unseen hand from the left, with a lamp and a framed barn painting on the wall behind him, all shown on a TV screen with a purple border. He squints and frowns, then opens his mouth to speak while clasping his yellow hands together and gesturing with them in an agitated way. He briefly grimaces and gapes with wide eyes, then settles back into a stern, grumpy expression as he continues talking to the microphone.

> My Homer is not a communist.

The scene cuts to the United Nations Building, a tall glass tower beside a low tan assembly hall with flags out front. Then a one-off delegate with short brown hair and a blue suit and red tie sits at a desk behind a RUSSIA nameplate and a glass of water, clasping his hands, then raising one hand to gesture as he speaks.

Troy McClure, with swept-back reddish hair, sits behind a RUSSIA placard, smirking and speaking, then turns to gesture as his placard changes to SOVIET UNION and he keeps talking. The scene then shifts to a parade in front of an onion-domed cathedral, where floats and a crowd pass below a purple banner with a white peace sign that is replaced by a red flag with a gold hammer and sickle.

A brown teddy bear in a party hat sits on a red float beside a white winged horse float as small grey tanks roll along a brick street past a castle-like building. Soldiers in brown coats with rifles stand at a doorway, then turn and march out past a large wooden gate. A yellow sign on grass reads "BERLIN REUNITED AND IT FEELS SO GOOD" while a green rolled carpet is unrolled beside it. Last, guards in dark uniforms walk dogs along a low wall topped with barbed wire, passing a grey watchtower.

He sits up and climbs out as the glass shatters into shards that fly through the air, and the crowd throws up their hands in alarm. He then steps down from the coffin edge and raises both arms toward the crowd with his mouth wide open, while broken glass lies scattered across the platform.

The scene then fades to black, and the on-screen credits list Executive Producers Al Jean and Mike Reiss, followed by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening and Sam Simon in gold lettering on a black background.
