Plot[edit]
Principal Skinner inaugurates the Springfield Elementary Learning Annex, but Lisa points out that just it's a trailer, so Skinner explains it's a low cost solution to the overcrowding classroom. Bart tells Milhouse that he now sees a canvas, and that blank and lifeless edfice will soon be home to his masterpiece. Milhouse asks him if he means El Barto. A new kid in Bart's class, Brad, overhears and asks Bart if he is El Barto. When Bart finds out that Brad likes throwing rocks at the greenhouse, Captain Squid and Yogimon cards, he asks if he wants to come over to his house, which he does. Bart and Brad get on well together and Milhouse feels left out. Brad and Bart decide to make some "El Barto Action" and go to the school to spray at the new trailer, which is monitored by Groundskeeper Willie. Willie wakes up and starts chasing them, but they manage to escape after the spray paint sprays into the face of Willie. The next day Bart tells Milhouse what happened yesterday and he finds that someone has tagged "El Barto" on the trailer. Bart realizes that it is Brad and when he meets him, he has a completely new design; he looks just like Bart.
