"Marge in Chains" is the 21st episode of The Simpsons' fourth season.
Synopsis
After many of Springfield's residents purchase a 'Juice Loosener', which are shipped from Japan, the dreaded Osaka Flu hits the town. Many of the townspeople are affected by the illness. Due to tiredness from having to look after the rest of her ill family while shopping at the Kwik-E-Mart, Marge accidentally forgets to pay for Grampa's bottle of bourbon when shopping at the Kwik-E-Mart. She is then arrested for shoplifting. As usual the family hires Lionel Hutz to defend Marge at her trial and as usual, he loses the case. She is sentenced to 30 days imprisonment at Springfield Women's Prison. Marge's absence is felt at home as Homer struggles to cope without her. The annual bake sale also suffers. Without Marge's marshmallow squares, the Springfield Park Commission fails to raise enough money to pay for a statue of Abraham Lincoln. They have to purchase one of Jimmy Carter instead. The townspeople are disgusted by this and riot, using the statue as a battering ram. So, to save his career Mayor Quimby has Marge released from jail. The townspeople cheerfully welcome her back. They even unveil a statue for Marge, though it's just the Jimmy Carter one with Marge's hair added to it.
