Synposis
The carnival is in town and the family is all excited over it. Among the attractions is Hitler's original car. Bart decides to sit in it, but he accidentally makes it go forwards and crashes it into a tree, enraging the carnival owner.
To pay for the damage he's done, Bart must work of his debt as a carny, which gets Bart excited and Homer wanting to be a carny too. At their first day, they meet Cooder and Spud, two carnies who run the ring toss booth. When they have to leave for something, they put Homer and Bert in charge of their game. When Chief Wiggum comes by looking for a bribe, Homer doesn't get the gist of it, so Wiggum shuts down the game and takes it away. The booth also happened to be Cooder's home so Homer invites them to live with him. He gives them tickets to a glass-bottom floor boat tour, but then when they return, Cooder has taken over his house.
The Simpsons are forced to live in the treehouse and they plot a way to get their house back. Homer comes up with an idea to beat them at their own game. He makes a bet with them that if he can throw a hula-hoop onto the chimney, they get their house back and if not, he'll sign the deed to them. Just when Homer is about to throw, he and the family run into the house and trap them outside. Now settled in their home, Homer proceeds to fix his couch "groove" that Cooder has messed up.
Notes
- A barrel of "Lil' Lisa Slurry" from The Old Man and the Lisa can be seen on the ocean floor during the boat tour.
- The episode title is a reference to the comedian Art Carny.
- The song that plays during the closing is "Groove Me"
- A deleted scene from this episode shows Principal Skinner and his mother visiting the ring toss booth while Homer and Bart run it.
- When Marge asks how the Athena was able to sink, it cuts away to a Shark ramming the glass causing fractures not unlike the one that doomed the Athena, with Bart and Homer taunting it (by mooning and jiggling the gut, respectively), implying that the Athena sunk because rowdy tourists started taunting some of the wildlife.
