Synopsis

"Marge and Lisa turn Lisa's sad experience into a successful graphic novel-turned-Broadway show, but they struggle with creative differences and ego."

Plot

After having a nightmare about her locker, Lisa runs to Homer and Marge's bed. Lisa has had the nightmare four time already and due to Homer having used all their insurence-covered consueling sessions, they take her to the Springfield Community College, where the students makes practice on people.

Homer takes Bart to groom like a dog, while Annette takes Lisa, and she suggests art therapy, to draw a typical day for her. Back home, Lisa is frustrated at her bad drawings, so Marge helps her drawing while she explains her feelings.

Lisa takes the drawings to the college, but loses them on the steps. Kumiko collects them and sells them at the The Android's Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop as a graphic novel, called Sad Girl. Lisa and Marge complain to Comic Book Guy and Kumiko, but when they see that people are buying the books, Lisa is happy and stop Kumiko from burning them.

Marge and Lisa get commissioned by Kumiko to do a sequel and they bond. When Bart and Homer see this, they agree to bond too and they go fishing, however they steal the fishing poles of other fishers and are beaten up for it.

At the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con, a panel is held by Roz Chast, with Alison Bechdel and Marjane Satrapi, with the public diminishing Marge. At home, Lisa and Marge argue with each other and break apart. Upstairs they meet Guthrie Frenel, a theatrical director, and he wants to make a broadway show.

However, the play set by Guthrie is set to focus on Marge's work. Lisa is upset and takes it on the therapist and when the play is on, Marge sees her disappointment. She draws her face on a spotlight and shines it on the stage, enraging Guthrie, which causes a chain reaction that ruins the show. At the Springfield Sardi's, Guthrie checks on the reviews of the disaster, while Bart is drawing mustaches on pictures.
