EPISODES 150px "The Falcon and the D'ohman" - NABF16 Original airdate: September 25, 2011 ---------------------------------------- 7.91 million Homer befriends Wayne (guest voice Kiefer Sutherland), a reserved security guard recently hired by the nuclear power plant. Plagued by violent flashbacks from his past as a CIA agent, he must overcome his tortured nightmares to save Homer from a Ukranian terrorist. Meanwhile, Marge fantasizes about being a contestant on "Top Chef" hosted by Tom Colicchio (guest voicing as himself), and the future of Springfield's hottest "it" couple Nedna, Edna Krabappel (guest voice Marcia Wallace) and Ned Flanders, will be revealed after months of online fan voting and speculation. "Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts" - NABF17 Original airdate: October 2, 2011 ---------------------------------------- 6.12 million Principal Skinner challenges Superintendent Chalmers to take over Bart's education after one of Bart's pranks leads to a school fundraiser debacle. Chalmers takes an unconventional approach to teaching American history which sparks a fascination in President Teddy Roosevelt. Encouraged by Bart's educational renaissance, Chalmers takes Bart and his band of "Rough Riders" on an overnight excursion to Springfield Forest, but after a minor accident, the school administration fires Chalmers for taking the boys on an unauthorized field trip. Determined to get Chalmers' job back, Bart and the boys hold the school hostage until the administration reinstates Chalmers, and they stand up for the teacher who made a meaningful impact. 150px "Treehouse of Horror XXII" - NABF19 Original airdate: October 30, 2011 ---------------------------------------- 8.01 million In the spooky opener, Homer takes a dangerous dive into an isolated canyon on Candy Eating Peak, but when a crashing boulder traps his arm, he tries to bite off his arm. In "The Diving Bell and Butterball," the first of three hair-raising Halloween tales, a venomous spider bite leaves Homer paralyzed, but when Lisa discovers Homer's ability to communicate through natural gases, he is able to express his love for Marge. The killer spells continue in "Dial D for Diddly" when Ned Flanders, devout preacher by day, transforms into a cold-blooded vigilante by night, when Homer pretends to be God to tell Ned to murder Homer's enemies. In the final terrifying tale, "In the Na'Vi," Bart and Milhouse are assigned on a mission to access a sacred extract on a distant planet, Rigel 7 (the notable home of Kang and Kodos). They morph into the land's indigenous one-eyed avatars, but when Bart finds love and an eternal mate abroad, he is caught in planet warfare. 150px "Replaceable You" - NABF21 Original airdate: November 6, 2011 ---------------------------------------- 7.97 million Bart's science fair project, a mechanical baby seal, outshines Lisa's brainy asteroid model and quickly becomes a popular pet among the retirement home patrons. Meanwhile, Homer's new and eager assistant, Roz Davis (guest voice Jane Lynch), steals Homer's job, forcing him to team up with Flanders to reveal her true colors and evil past. 150px "The Food Wife" - NABF20 Original airdate: November 13, 2011 ---------------------------------------- 7.53 million Marge takes Bart and Lisa on a weekend excursion, and when an unexpected restaurant detour awakens their taste buds, fellow foodies Amuse Bruce and Fois Garth (guest voices Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim) inspire them to start their own food blog, "The Three Mouthketeers." The threesome scores an exclusive reservation at Springfield's premiere modern restaurant, but Marge has an unsettling dream during which Anthony Bourdain, Gordon Ramsay and Mario Batali (guest-voicing as themselves) lead her to reconsider inviting Homer. And later, Marge directs Homer to a different type of cooking lab where he gets into a bind with law enforcement authorities.
