History[edit]

Mr. Burns had made Bart his heir and paid Krusty $400 to deliver Bart a pizza at Burns Manor. Bart wondered how The Krusty the Clown Show could be airing live at the same time, but an upbeat Krusty explained he had just put on a re-run and didn’t expect anyone to notice—except he groaned upon seeing the re-run was extremely outdated, as Krusty had interrupted his usual programming to announce and then explain that Argentina had just invaded the Falkland Islands.[1]

Mr. Burns said the paintball fight at the Power Plant was "more fun than the Falklands War I caused".[2]
