**In "Viva Ned Flanders", Homer tries to get Ned to accept being a polygamist on the argument that having two wives can be great. Homer imagines himself lazing in a hammock while Marge and Amber do yard work. Events play out in a completely different direction after the "Vegas wives" arrive in [[Springfield]], as Marge is clearly hostile to the idea of having Amber in the house.
