Plot

Homer tricks the family into going to a psychologist by pretending to take them out for frosty chocolate milkshakes. He seeks an answer to the family's problems, saying that they don't laugh any more. Bart says "I ain't leaving until this bowl's empty". Homer angrily tells Bart to put the mints back. After Bart ruins the bowl of mints by spitting them out, Lisa kicks the psychologist in the leg after scolding Bart for ruining the bowl of mints for everyone, Homer scolds the psychologist for calling Lisa a borderline psychotic, Bart shoots him with his dart gun because he dislikes him, and Lisa cuts his tie with scissors much to Marge's horror; the psychologist angrily asks them to leave his office. The family breaks into a collective chuckle after the psychologist kicks them out of his office.
