Episode Information
|
"And Maggie Makes Three" is the thirteenth episode of The Simpsons' sixth season. It is notable for recounting the birth of Maggie. The episode title is a play on the lyric "And baby makes three" from the song "My Blue Heaven".
Plot
When looking through the family photographic albums, Bart and Lisa comment on the lack of baby pictures for Maggie. As Marge insists on the weekly hour for the family without watching TV, Homer recalls Maggie's conception and birth. Homer hated working at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, and had a dream job of working at a bowling alley. Through 'careful' budgeting, he managed to make that dream come true. He quit the power plant, and went to get a job at Barney's Bowlorama. It meant less pay, but also less stress, a friendly atmosphere, and enabled them to have just enough money to get by with the four of them.
However, when Homer and Marge "snuggled" to celebrate this development, she became pregnant. Knowing that another baby would mean that Homer would have to get a better paying job, Marge tried to keep it a secret from Homer as long as she could, but Patty and Selma managed to find out. Even though they promised not to tell Homer, they phone up the two biggest gossips in town who spread the word quickly around town that Marge was pregnant, and threw her a "surprise" baby shower after "forgetting" that Homer was due back from work soon.
Homer was not happy when he found out about the new baby, and completely unenthusiastic about the impending birth. Because of the financial problems caused by the pregnancy of the baby, Homer was forced to quit his dream job and go back to the Power Plant, and Mr. Burns smugly allowed him to return, but only after placing a plaque in Homer's station saying "Don't forget: you're here forever," to remind him that he could never quit again (even though hes done so many a time later). As much as he dreaded the idea of having another child, as soon as Maggie was born, Homer immediately cared about her and took all of her baby photos to work, positioning them around the plaque to alter it into saying "Do it for her".
