Lisa's Date with DensityEpisode Number: 160 Season Num: 8 First Aired: Sunday December 15, 1996 Prod Code: 4F01 |
Chalmers buys his dream car…a Honda. Someone has stolen the H from the insignia on its hood, making Chalmers cry like a little girl. Skinner tries to find the culprit. Meanwhile, Homer obtains a telemarketing machine. Skinner conducts a search of the students' lockers and discovers that the usual suspect, Nelson, had stolen it. Nelson gets detention, but also the admiration of Lisa. She falls for his rebellious ways and tells him how much she likes him. Homer's telemarketing machine calls for people in Springfield to send one dollar to "Happy Dude at 742 Evergreen Terrace Springfield." Nelson disgusts Lisa, but Marge tells her to try to change him. Her subsequent attempt leads to her first kiss. Nelson's friends are mad at him for having a girlfriend. They want to attack Skinner's house but Nelson will only join them later. Homer's auto-dialer gets him in trouble with the cops. Nelson gets in trouble for his prank on Skinner. Lisa decides to break up with Nelson, leaving an open window for Milhouse. Homer rigs the telemarketing machine to dial an apology to everybody in town.

(edit)
Blackboard Joke: None.
Couch Gag: The room is upside-down. The family runs in on the ceiling and sits down on the couch, until they fall to the "real" ground. (edit) This episode is the first hint at Milhouse's crush on Lisa. (edit)

(Homer's auto-dialer message.)
Homer: Greetings, friends. Do you wish to look as happy as me? Well, you've got the power inside you right now. So, use it, and send one dollar to Happy Dude, 742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield. Don't delay, eternal happiness is just a dollar away. (edit) Lisa: Do you want to come over to my house after school?
Nelson: Okay, but if anyone sees us, I'm just there to steal your bike. (edit) (Milhouse chokes on his milk and it sprays out of his nose)
Nelson: Way to drink, Poindexter! (edit) Homer: Eh, morning Apu.
Apu: Good morning. One doughnut with sprinkles, and (gasps) wait a minute. These are not sprinkles sir.
Homer: What do you mean?
Apu: You've clearly taken items from the candy rack and placed them on top of the doughnut in an attempt to pass them off as sprinkles.
Homer: Well, it was like that when I got here. It really was!
Apu: A mounds bar is not a sprinkle. A Twizzler is not a sprinkle. A jolly rancher is not a sprinkle sir. Perhaps in Shangri-la they are, but not here.
Homer: Oh. (walks out)
Apu: Thank you, come again. (edit) Mr. Largo: Do you find something funny about the word "tromboner"? (edit)

The auto-dialer shouldn't call Flanders more than once in a row. It should go on to the next number.
(edit)
The inside of Skinner's house looks like the Bates Motel in Psycho.
(edit)
The first telephone number dialled, 555-0001 (Mr. Burns), is a reference Die Hard With A Vengeance.
(edit)
The observatory that appears in this episode looks like the one from Rebel Without A Cause.
(edit)
Mr. Burns' phone number is 555-0001, Prof. Frink's lab is 555-5782, and the Flanders' is 555-8904.
(edit)
Uter is a character like Augustus Gloop in Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Choclate Factory
(edit)
Nelson's poster: "Nuke the Whales"
The poster in Nelson's room spoofs Greenspace's 1980s-circa poster "Save the Whales." (edit)
