+ | '''Marge''': [yawn] Lisa, what in the heck are you doing? | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Lisa''': Oh, it's for my Junior Achievers Club. We're trying to earn money by recycling. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Bart''': Oh, recycling is useless, Lis. Once the sun burns out, this planet is doomed. You're just making sure we spend our last days using inferior products. | ||

+ | '''Mr. Burns''': I'll keep it short and sweet. Family, religion, friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business. When opportunity knocks, you don't want to be driving to a maternity hospital or sitting in some phony-baloney church. Or synagogue. | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | '''Mr. Burns''': Questions? | ||
+ | |||
+ | (a long pause, and Principal Skinner raises his hand) | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Principal Skinner''': Well, uh, I might take advantage of this rare opportunity even if you children aren't interested. Ah, which do you think is more important? Hard work or stay-tuneded-ness? | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Mr. Burns''': Are there any REAL questions? | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | '''Principal Skinner''': A half-ton of newspaper and all we get is 75 cents? That won't even cover the gas I used to go to the store to buy the twine to tie up the bundles. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Hippie''': It sounds like you're working for your car-r-r. Simplify-y, ma-an! | ||

+ | |||
+ | '''Smithers''': Um, well... sir, it happened 25 years before I was born. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Mr. Burns''': Oh, that's your excuse for everything! | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | '''Kent Brockman''': Remember millionaire C. Montgomery Burns? The man who blocked out our sun, ran over a local boy, and stole Chrismas from 1981 to 1985? Well, guess who's flat broke, and picking up trash for a living? | ||
+ | |||

+ | |||
+ | '''Burns' Underlings''': Yes, sir. Absolutely. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Mr. Burns''': Oh, I see it now; you're nothing but a bunch of yes-men. I was making all the wrong moves, and you were too gutless to tell me! | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Burns' Underlings''': Yes, sir. Absolutely. Every move the wrong one. | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | '''Real Estate Agent''': And, I'm sure a pro-wrestler such as yourself will appreciate all the closet space, Hitman. | ||

+ | |||
+ | '''Mr. Burns''': Yeah. Why indeed. | ||
+ | ---- | ||
+ | '''Marge''': Homer, you didn't tell me Mr. Burns went broke and lost the nuclear power plant! | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Homer''': Now I can't remember every little thing that happens in my day. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Marge''': You told me about that candy bar you found three times. | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Bart''': You found a candy bar? | ||
+ | |||
+ | '''Homer''': Oh yes. Gather around, my son, and I shall tell you a tale. | ||

+ | |||
+ | '''Lenny''' [over the intercom]: Attention, everybody... um... oh... uh... Work harder, bye! | ||

[The family finds Lisa in the kitchen rummaging through the garbage]
Marge: [yawn] Lisa, what in the heck are you doing?
Lisa: Oh, it's for my Junior Achievers Club. We're trying to earn money by recycling.
Bart: Oh, recycling is useless, Lis. Once the sun burns out, this planet is doomed. You're just making sure we spend our last days using inferior products.
[Marge puts a six-pack ring in a wastebasket]
Lisa: Mom, Mom! You're mixing polyapolane with polyurethane.
Homer: Marge!
Marge: Well, I'm sorry!
Lisa: And, you have to cut these up first. Otherwise, animals get caught in them.

Mr. Burns: I'll keep it short and sweet. Family, religion, friendship. These are the three demons you must slay if you wish to succeed in business. When opportunity knocks, you don't want to be driving to a maternity hospital or sitting in some phony-baloney church. Or synagogue.

Real Estate Agent: And, I'm sure a pro-wrestler such as yourself will appreciate all the closet space, Hitman.
Bret "The Hitman" Hart: [sniffs] Eww. This place has got old-man stink!
Mr. Burns: Ooh.
Smithers: Don't listen to him, sir. You've got an enchanting musk.
Mr. Burns: Uh, would it be all right if I kept this portrait? To remind me of better times?
Bret "The Hitman" Hart: Why would I want a picture of a pitiful pencil-neck GEEK?!
Mr. Burns: Yeah. Why indeed.
Marge: Homer, you didn't tell me Mr. Burns went broke and lost the nuclear power plant!
Homer: Now I can't remember every little thing that happens in my day.
Marge: You told me about that candy bar you found three times.
Bart: You found a candy bar?
