Episode Information
| ||||
"Brake My Wife, Please" is the twentieth episode of Season 14.
Synopsis
Homer has a car accident and loses his driver's license, which means that Marge now has to do all of the family's driving. Homer comes to enjoy walking instead of driving, but the extra responsibility stresses out Marge. She becomes increasingly accident-prone (starting with running over Homer in the car), and Homer is on the receiving end of all of her accidents. This puts a strain on their relationship, but a visit to a marriage counselor sorts everything out.
Plot
During a school field trip to Springfield Aquarium, Principal Skinner spots some unusually large pearls in a giant clam. The "pearls", however, turn out to be Bart mooning everyone. After pulling the prank, Bart tries to get out of the water, but in short order is grabbed by an octopus, punched in the stomach by a sea turtle and pounded on the head by a hammerhead shark. Following the aquatic assault, Bart goes to the hospital to have his injuries treated.
At the hospital, Marge realizes that Homer has the family's health insurance card, but she can't find him anywhere. This prompts Dr. Hibbert to postpone treating Bart, instead chaining him to a radiator and leaving him there until the card is presented. When Homer finally shows up with the card, he says he was sidetracked by watching TV at the video store, and Marge demands that he get a cell phone. Fortuitously, cell phone saleswoman Lindsey Naegle happens on the scene and sells him one on the spot.
The next day, Homer goes to an electronics store to buy a hands-free set for his new cell phone. However, he is enthralled by the variety of automotive accessories which plug into the cigarette lighter, so he ends up buying a bunch of them, including a DVD player, a snow cone maker, a deep fat fryer and a fog machine. With his car stuffed full of accessories, Homer drives around town using them all at once (and talking on his cell phone as well), paying no attention whatsoever to the road. As a result, Homer drives onto a pier, then off of the end and into the ocean. The Coast Guard pulls Homer's car out of the water, but Homer has to go to court for his reckless driving. Judge Constance Harm revokes Homer's driver's license in a thoroughly decisive manner: She cuts up the license, guillotines the pieces, feeds the remaining shards to a pair of dogs, and then orders the court officers to "Burn their poop!"
With Homer no longer able to drive anywhere, Marge now has to do all of the driving for the family. In addition to running her own errands, Marge now has extra chores such as picking up Homer's dry cleaning in Shelbyville and driving Lenny and Carl around. In the meantime, Homer has to walk everywhere he goes, and while walking to Moe's Tavern he discovers he enjoys walking and starts walking all over town just for the fun of it. However, Marge finds the extra driving to be increasingly stressful, and as a result she accidentally runs over Homer in the street.
