Synopsis
Homer calls the family to gather around for a portrait. They do not listen and resume their daily routines. Homer calls them up but they still do not listen. The family finally gather around when he shouts for them to make a portrait.Homer sets the camera for the automatic timer however he arrives in the shot to late and ends up blocking Marge and having Bart and Maggie out of the shot.
The next shot Bart and Lisa are already bored and want Homer to be a lot quicker so that they could resume their daily routines. Lisa says "Mumbo Jumbo", prompting Homer to ask what did she say, annoyed although says it was nothing. He wants the family to be closer although becomes too close eventually by the shot, resembling a mutant.
In the final shot Bart then tries to use profanity to get Homer to speed up however Homer continues on and has everyone smile correctly in the final shot, however Bart is making faces which messes up the final shot as an annoyed Homer strangles him while Maggie and Lisa make faces and Marge falls asleep.
