The school children are tasked to sell chocolate in Springfield and before Lisa starts selling, she goes home to watch a Mars rover documentary. Homer drives her to Shelbyville afterwards to sell the chocolate, as everyone in Springfield has already bought some. On the road, Homer takes a shortcut across the desert, and runs over the Mars rover on a fake Mars set. Lisa is outraged at the hoax, however she leaves when the scientists tell her there would otherwise be no space program. Later in the day, Lisa and Homer are watching the live documentary again and the words "Homer Rules" are found in the dust. A scientist attempts (probably unsuccessfully) to dismiss it as natural erosion.
