Synopsis
Homer has a car accident and loses his driver's license, which means that Marge now has to do all of the family's driving. Homer comes to enjoy walking instead of driving, but the extra responsibility stresses out Marge. She becomes increasingly accident-prone (starting with running over Homer in the car), and Homer is on the receiving end of all of her accidents. This puts a strain on their relationship, but a visit to a marriage counselor sorts everything out.
Plot
During a school field trip to Springfield Aquarium, Principal Skinner spots some unusually large pearls in a giant clam. The "pearls", however, turn out to be Bart mooning everyone. After pulling the prank, Bart tries to get out of the water, but in short order is grabbed by an octopus, punched in the stomach by a sea turtle and pounded on the head by a hammerhead shark. Following the aquatic assault, Bart goes to the hospital to have his injuries treated.
At the hospital, Marge realizes that Homer has the family's health insurance card, but she can't find him anywhere. This prompts Dr. Hibbert to postpone treating Bart, instead chaining him to a radiator and leaving him there until the card is found. When Homer finally shows up with the card, he says he was sidetracked by watching TV at the video store, and Marge demands that he get a cell phone. Fortuitously, cell phone saleswoman Lindsey Naegle happens on the scene and sells him one on the spot.
