Synopsis
Lisa takes a job at King Toot's Music Store. Meanwhile, Homer discovers that Ned Flanders helped record his and Marge's favorite song, causing Homer to have difficulties getting into a romantic mood.
Plot
Lisa is sad because her saxophone is broken. She has bent the mouthpiece, and needs a new one. She asks Marge and Homer if they can buy a new one, but they cannot afford it. The next day, Lisa is at King Toot's Music Store, where she asks if she can put on a layaway saxophone mouthpiece. Mr. Largo tells her she can't. Jer is not happy with what Mr. Largo did, so he dismisses him. Lisa tells Jer that she's happy to help if he needs someone new, and he says he would appreciate her help. Lisa goes to work, and on the first day, Marge discovers the album Blue-Haired Beauty in the store. She buys it from Lisa for the song on the album. It was on a mixtape Homer made for her when they first dated. She had never seen the actual album before.
The first real customer Lisa meets is Moe. He asks her to bring down a tuba and a kettle drum. Lisa asks him if he's really going to play them, but he says he just likes to see people lifting heavy objects. Then he asks her if she can take down the big xylophone. Lisa's next customer is Comic Book Guy. He wants a Vulcan lute, but Lisa says the store doesn't have it. So Comic Book Guy asks for a chidinkalu horn, but Lisa says the store doesn't have that either. Lisa shows Comic Book Guy an ocarina, and he buys it.
Marge and Homer eat a romantic dinner at home. Marge starts playing the album she bought. Just when they start kissing, Ned Flanders starts singing on the LP.
