Bart, [[Lisa]] and Milhouse arrive at Kamp Krusty. The trio are quickly greeted by [[Martin]], who tells Lisa that he's working on a musical pageant about the hardships of the pioneers who settled the West and that he could use her help. Lisa eagerly agrees to take part. She and Martin begin talking about the history and hardships of the pioneers, such as the {{w|Donner Party}} (who ended up resorting to cannibalism in order to survive). Bart and Milhouse, however, mock the whole idea of the project. Lisa gets angry and tells them to get lost, and Bart decides that he and Milhouse are going exploring in the woods. Milhouse agrees, as long as they're back in time for lunch.

Bart and Milhouse go into the woods, and Bart says that experiencing nature is what Kamp Krusty is all about, not having a musical pageant. He waxes euphoric about all of the trees, but then quickly becomes bored. Milhouse says he wants to go back to the camp, as he's getting hungry. Bart says he thought they were heading back, but Milhouse notices that nothing they see looks familiar and thinks they're lost. They keep walking, and Bart casually notices a bear that they didn't see before. When it dawns on them that it's a '''bear''', they run further into the woods, screaming "Bear attack!" A wider view, however, reveals that the bear is actually a statue holding a sign that admonishes visitors to not smoke in the woods.

Bart and Milhouse are grateful to have gotten away from the bear, but realize that they're definitely lost now. Milhouse says they've been gone for hours and it's starting to get dark, and they both notice that they're getting hungry. Milhouse presses Bart for answers about where they will sleep and what they will eat, and Bart says he's too hungry to think straight. Bart then recalls Lisa's mention of the Donner Party, and other examples from history where people had to eat each other to survive, and concludes that cannibalism isn't just for savages. With this rationalization, Bart starts hallucinating, then drools and looks at Milhouse, who in his vision has turned into a giant lamb chop. Milhouse asks what Bart is mumbling about, and "Why are you looking at me like that?" Bart, however, is unmoved from his hallucination. He licks his chops and bites Milhouse on the leg, which elicits a loud scream from Milhouse.

Bring Your Parents to School.jpg

Bring Your Parents to School Day is a Bart Simpson Comics story that appears in Bart Simpson #14.

It's "Bring Your Parents to School Day" at Springfield Elementary, and a number of students and parents (among them Bart and Homer) are seated in Mrs. Krabappel's classroom. Over the intercom, Principal Skinner gives a general welcome to everyone. However, he too has brought his mother to school for the day. She criticizes Skinner's diction and posture, and the two of them get into an argument over the open mike. The argument annoys Mrs. Krabappel, but amuses the students and parents in her classroom.

As the school day gets underway at 8:00 a.m., Bart gives Homer the lowdown on how to behave in the classroom, telling him to avoid eye contact with the teacher, and, above all, to not embarass him. Homer replies that it won't be a problem—"It'll be like shooting pork in a barrel", as he puts it, misquoting the expression "shooting fish in a barrel".

At 9:00 a.m., Homer goes on a tirade about Gilligan's Island. Bart envisions Homer as a big dumb-looking ape and reminds him that they're talking about the War of 1812. Bart is embarrassed by Homer's tangent, but everyone else thinks it's funny.

At 10:00 a.m., Homer takes over the classroom discussion to tell a fart joke, but fails to get any laughs. As he delivers the punchline, Bart sees him as a loudly braying donkey and pleads with him to shut up.
