Synopsis[edit]

"After performing CPR on a tased raccoon, Lisa discovers her calling to be veterinarian and becomes an intern at the local office, but learns a tough lesson when her neglected class hamster dies. Meanwhile, Marge moonlights as a crime scene cleaner for a little extra money, and the trauma of the gory scenes make her increasingly dead inside."


Plot[edit]

The Simpsons are at an indoor water park, but seeing that one of the main attractions has a very long line, Bart decides to pull a prank, announcing that the pools are infested with fishes that can "swim up people's wieners", and the only cure in case that happens is to roll naked on the snow. The prank causes huge panic, as all men rush outside while Bart enjoys the ride.

In the middle of the clutter, a raccoon enters the park, but one of the employees shoots the animal with a taser gun. Lisa decides to help the animal by performing CPR on him, which works. She is proclaimed as a local hero. As she proves to be responsible with animals, Miss Hoover gives her the responsibility to take care of Nibbles, the class pet, during spring break. Realizing that being a veterinarian is her new calling, she volunteers as an intern at Dr. Budgie's clinic.

Later, Marge is stuck in traffic, as the cleanup team is not able to reach a car accident scene (as they are stuck in traffic). Chief Wiggum convinces Marge to clean the street, and she does it remarkably well. Wiggum also invites Marge to make other crime scene cleanups, as they can keep all the money and jewelry they find. Back home, Marge realizes that their ceiling fan is old and unsafe, so she decides to do another cleanup job to get money for a new fan. Her new job is to clean the scene of a "suicide-murder". She does get enough money for a new fan, but the body parts and the blood end up traumatizing her.

Meanwhile, Lisa is so thrilled by the emotion of saving animals that she becomes more ignorant towards others. That's when Bart decides to remind her that she is so busy taking care of other people's pets that she forgets about her own class pet: Nibbles. He is extremely depressed and ill, and Dr. Budgie says that the only solution would be to perform surgery. However, Nibbles dies only after a few seconds of the operation, making Lisa extremely sad, as she technically kills an animal by neglecting it.

Back home, Homer realizes that if he takes Marge to calm Lisa down about the deceased hamster, this could calm Lisa down, but also put Marge's emotions back together, and it does. The episode ends showing Nibbles' funeral and a video memorial with clips of past episodes.
