Plot[edit]
The workers at the Nuclear Power Plant take part in a strike demanding a five cent wage increase. Mr. Burns refuses to comply and shuts off the town's power, although the residents cope better than expected. Instead of agreeing to Smithers' suggestion of giving in to the demands, Burns opts for the much more expensive option of creating an entirely new work force from a single cloned employee. After seeing how the cloning process works in the lab, Burns and Smithers watch a clone hatch from an egg, having used Smithers' DNA.
As the rest of the Simpson family discuss Homer getting replaced by a clone, Bart decides he wants to the process done to himself, and gets out an investigative reporter kit. At the power plant, the Smithers clones have led to an increase of productivity and profits, although the original Smithers is unhappy at all the attention Mr. Burns gets from them, and the clones also start to fight over Burns. In his reporter disguise, Bart asks to enter the plant to speak to Burns. One of the clones tries to force him away, but is tricked into letting him in when Bart mentions a clone he dislikes. The clones obsess over Mr. Burns to the point where they become violent and start killing each other, until one suggests they kill the original Smithers to get full access to Burns. The clones chase after the original, who hides and eventually steals the clothes from one of them, allowing him to escape.
At the Police Station, Smithers asks for help and tells Homer that Bart is in the plant and likely in danger. Smithers recruits Homer by disguising him as Mr. Burns and entering the plant with him. The clones are initially fooled, but Homer accidentally loses his fake nose when eating donuts and is pursued by them. After escaping again with Homer, Smithers pleads for help in Moe's Tavern. Everyone initially refuses until Moe announces there is no beer left. The clones trap Burns and attempt to forcefully make clones of him so they can have one each, while locking Bart away in an old daycare room. Smithers gets the townspeople to enter the plant as a conga line, and the clones immediately join in. The townspeople start to fight the clones but are overpowered by them. Bart emerges with a vintage Malibu Stacy doll and the clones all turn their attention to him. Smithers gets the clones to chase Bart into Mr. Burns' office, then orders them into a vault, threatening to destroy the doll if they don't. The clones obey, and Burns wants to kill them, but Llewellyn Sinclair instead offers to take them to Broadway. Eventually, the clones all perform in their own musical, and Burns agrees to the original employee pay rise demand.
