Format
Entrepreneurs come to the Vultures, Mr. Burns, Lindsey Naegle, The Rich Texan and Howard K. Duff VIII to get funding and help with their business ideas and products. The Vultures can offer to take a percentage of the profits in return for investing money into the idea.
History
On the show, Milhouse and Kirk Van Houten came to the Vultures with a bling retainer to make retainers "cool". Howard K. Duff pulled out before he even saw the presentation and Lindsey Naegle offered three hours of her time for 90% of the company, then 95%. After Kirk and Milhouse argue a bit, Mr. Burns sends them down a trap door. After the Van Houtens, a woman with a treadmill for babies was on the show before she and the babies were sent down the trap door.
On another show, Homer was on the show with "Toilet Breakfasts", eating breakfast on the toilet. Mr. Burns wanted to take 100% of the company as he thought Homer developed the idea on his time.
Behind the Laughter
Vulture's Nest is a parody of Shark Tank, which is also referenced in the episode when Homer slips up and refers to the show as Shark Tank.
