Sypnosis
In order to get back at his dad, Bart goes undercover as a graffiti street artist and plasters Homer's unflattering image all over Springfield. But one night, Bart and Milhouse get caught in the act by established street artists Shepard Fairey, Ron English, Kenny Scharf and Robbie Conal (guest voicing as themselves), and to Bart's surprise, they invite him to exhibit his satirical artwork in his very own gallery show. Meanwhile, a hip, new health food superstore opens in Springfield that threatens to put Apu and the Kwik-E-Mart out of business.
Plot
Lisa attempts to wake up Homer, and after the fire alarm fails she opens a can of Duff, instantly waking him up. Lisa tells him Marge's birthday is the next day (March 19), and that he needs to start going around town looking for a good and not insulting present. Homer announces that he's already bought a present, which shocks Lisa. He also adds he put some thought into it, shocking Lisa even more. He reveals it as a state-of-the-art food masher-mupper, named Puree-Station 3. Lisa says Marge is going to love it, but Homer says it will make love seem like chewing mere tin-foil, because today he's getting it autographed. Lisa guesses by Lenny, but instead by "the box lady herself" (Paula Paul). Lisa is so amazed she almost faints.
The family go to Swapper Jack's, so Homer can get the present signed. Homer, Bart and Lisa find the shop great, with a clear premise, like Hawaii but without the murderous locals, and unusual jelly. Homer thinks the family won't be shopping at the Kwik-E-Mart any more, then Apu appears behind a cheese stand. Homer is surpised to see Apu out of his "natural habitat". He says he is finding out who is real customers are, and who is going to cheat on him. Many residents, including Lisa, Sideshow Mel and Nelson, complain about the products, but he answers that he's always considered them his friends, and friends do not betray friends. Homer protests, and Apu and Homer get into a fight with cheese sticks. Apu is nearly victorious, but is restrained by two employees. Homer gets his masher-mupper signed, and Paula suggests calling Marge live from her show tommorrow, and wish her a happy birthday.
At home, Marge's presents are an apron with a sarnet from Lisa, a bunny from Bart, and before Marge opens Homer's present he goes to the phone saying this will make it her most awesome birthday ever. After a long time, there is no phone call, and Homer gets angry. He goes to call Paula, but the phone is dead. He sees it chewed, and realises it was caused by Marge's rabbit. Homer gets angry at Bart and the rabbit, and then Lisa suggests Paula might have left a message. She twists the wires together, and presses "Voice Mail". Paula calls but Marge isn't there, then she tries again, but afterwards she gets angry at Marge for making her look stupid and not picking up.
After Marge goes upstairs, sad and quite fed up, Homer tries to resist strangling Bart, so tells to get in the rabbit cage. After getting in their, Homer later wants him to get out, but he claims he's adapted the cage. Homer eventaully gets him out, then tries lying in their saying it's not comfortable, but almost instantly falls asleep.
Production
The end credits theme was sung by Nicholas McKaig after the version of the theme song he sung was uploaded to YouTube in January 2012.
