Plot
Scratchy goes to Itchy's barber shop for a haircut. Itchy seats Scratchy in the chair, then pours barbecue sauce and flesh-eating ants onto Scratchy's head. The ants devour the fur and flesh from Scratchy's head, leaving only his skull. Itchy then uses the chair lift to propel Scratchy into the air, through the ceiling, and into Elvis Presley's television in the room upstairs, where Elvis is watching TV. Elvis comments that "This show ain't no good" and shoots the TV.
Trivia
- This is the only episode so far to have an ending theme performed by an unknown singer, who sounds similar to the singer of the theme to Porch Pals.
- The original plot was to have Itchy chop off Scratchy's tail and head with a cleaver and dance in a fountain of blood coming from Scratchy's neck, but Bart decided that it was "too predictable."
- The inspiration for the episode was an incident where Homer was trimming the hedges, accidentally sheared off the top of Marge's hair, and attempted to fix it by putting a stick on top of her remaining hair to put the cut-off hair back into place -- all while Marge, totally unnoticing, was reading a magazine.
