Plot

Bart fires spitballs at Lisa and Janey and one is covered in blood. Lisa then complains to Bart about it but Bart finds out he is losing his last baby tooth. Bart then starts to worry that he is becoming an adult and has to give up his life as a kid. Lisa then tells Bart that when she is feeling down she writes stuff and Bart decides to write hilarious speeches on t-shirts. They quickly become popular and Bart opens his own t-shirt stand but Chief Wiggum shuts it down and Bart tries to go to the novelty expo to increase sales. There Bart finds out that Krusty is selling better t-shirts and Bart gives up. However, a businessman named Goose Gladwell finds Bart's t-shirts and distributes them. Homer then realizes he just lost his spot in the family and ends up watching a Declan Desmond movie on TV. The movie then tells Homer instead of moving to the Springfield Retirement Castle he can spend time with Lisa. Homer enjoys spending time with Lisa but after Lisa's project on nuclear energy is about to lose to Martin's robot named CHUM (short for "Childlike Humanoid Urban Muchacho") and Homer uses real plutonium to power Lisa's project and Lisa begins to hate Homer again. In the mean time Goose Gladwell is selling the rights to Bart's t-shirts to the Disney company and Bart is not even given a single penny. Homer then comes to the store and after a discussion with Goose Homer is able to end sales to Bart's t-shirts and Homer is able to reprise his role as father again. During the credits Bart tells Nelson there is more than one way to remove a tooth.
