A Recipe for Distress Pt. 1

Auto starts

Sideshow Bob: My name is Robert Terwilliger, your new director. Complete transparency…I'm a convicted felon. Airshot: Convicted of what? Sideshow Bob: Faking my own death, rigging an election, a bunch of attempted murders… Krusty: Don't forget the time you tried to frame me for robbery. Airshot: And you want this guy to direct your movie? Sideshow Bob: Would you rather star in a flop directed by Krusty, or in a blockbuster hit directed by a hardened criminal? Moby Man: My agent said I'm one flop away from hosting game shows, so I choose the criminal! Sideshow Bob: Alas, I can not change my past, but I can forge a new future. Your futures. For the better. Now, are there any objections before we begin? Homer: Just one… Are you going to try and kill Bart again? Sideshow Bob: If there's time. Now, let's take this scene from the top.

Hydrangea: Well, sometimes Magnesium Man takes my lunch, even though my name is clearly written on it. Sideshow Bob: Good! Imagine that the Pain Lords are actually Magnesium Man coming for your lunch. It's up to you to stop him. And…action! Hydrangea: If you want this Love Gem, you'll have to pry it from my cold, dead fingers you human filth! Sideshow Bob: Cut! That was terrific. Magnesium Man: *eating Hydrangea's lunch* Yeah, great job, Hydrangea. Hydrangea: Leave. My. Lunch. Alone! *tackles Magnesium Man* Krusty: Magnesium Man and Hydrangea are fighting on set? We need to stop them! Sideshow Bob: Don't be a fool! I've just given birth to brilliant performances! Keep rolling cameras!

Quetzelica: I guess deep down I'm still that scared little girl who couldn't help her sister when she needed it most. Black Voodoo: You're a stronger person now, and I know you won't let us down. Sideshow Bob: Cut! Quetzelica, I need to see tears in this scene. The audience should be mourning your self-doubt. Sideshow Bob: And Black Voodoo, don't rush it. We want to feel the tension before we know your true feelings. Now, take it from the top. Krusty: Wow, Bob, how did you become such a good director? Sideshow Bob: Working the Krusty Show helped, but it wasn't until prison that I learned how to remove hesitancy. Now I see a vision and just go for it. Krusty: Is that why all the best actors are reformed inmates? Sideshow Bob: If they were in my cell block, then yes.

Sideshow Bob: Attention all! It's time for our big helicopter scene. We only get one shot at this, so let's give it our best. Bart: Whoa, mama! That thing is awesome! Sideshow Bob: Hands off. The military is lending us their prototype for promotional purposes only. The General: This is the Ultra RX Kill-O-Bird 5000. It costs two hundred million taxpayer dollars. Bart: Why risk it in a movie? The General: Son, putting high-tech military machinery on the big screen is the greatest recruitment tool we have. The General: Why, if I let you fly this puppy, I'll bet you'd want to join the Air Force! Bart: Damn straight, I would! Marge: Excuse me, that's my son, and he's a minor. The General: Of course, we wouldn't dream of recruiting minors. The General: *hands Bart a pamphlet* *whispers* Psst, come see me when Sergeant Wet Blanket isn't on duty.

Sideshow Bob: Before we start filming, safety regulations require me to inspect the helicopter. Krusty: Knock yourself out. Bart: You idiots! You've just given Sideshow Bob access to a helicopter he can use to escape. Krusty: That's ridiculous. Sideshow Bob: And here's an ending for your movie: the convicted felon flies off into the sunset. Bart: Wait, you're leaving without even trying to kill me? Sideshow Bob: *sigh* I'd love to, Bart. But this movie has me a little burnt out. Sideshow Bob: If you want, I could try and cut your head off with the helicopter blades as I take off. Bart: Nah, no need to force it.

Chinnos: We just lost our director! How will I know what motivations to use? Airshot: Who's going to tell me I did a great job after each scene even when I didn't? Moby Man: And how will I know whether the camera is picking up my muscle definition? Black Voodoo: Pfft, we all know those muscles are implants. Moby Man: You take that back! Black Voodoo: Only when you take that six pack back to the plastic surgeon! Bart: The crew is tearing itself apart. It looks like your movie is once again a mess, Krusty. Krusty: *sigh* I never thought it'd come to this, but it's time to do the one thing I was avoiding. Bart: Run that clown nose of yours through the dishwasher? Krusty: Okay, two things. That and it's time I actually tried to direct this movie.

Anyway, we've got an ending to shoot and that's exactly what we're gonna do! Magnesium Man: I can't believe you don't like us. Krusty: Forget I said that. Hydrangea: I don't see how we can.

Krusty: Someone once inspired me to remove all hesitancy and just go for my vision. That's what I did.

Polystar Executive: Krusty, we'd like to discuss the reviews for your film. Krusty: Sorry I let you down. Polystar Executive: You didn't let us down. Krusty: I didn't? But the movie flopped. Polystar Executive: Yes, but you went over budget. Now we can place the blame squarely on you and Polystar Pictures gets to save face. Krusty: So that's why you added all those expensive superheroes to the movie? Polystar Executive: Yep. So congratulations on making a real stinker. Krusty: Congratulations?! My reputation is ruined! Polystar Executive: I guess you can't make an omelet without breaking a few condor eggs. Spoiler alert: you're the condor egg. *chuckles* Polystar Executive: Hey, that's not bad… Maybe I should write our next movie…

SideshowMel: Krusty, we're on in five. Krusty: Cram it, Mel. Bart: See, didn't that feel good? Krusty: I guess it did. Bart: The simple pleasures make life worth living.
