Character Information
|
Aristotle Amodopoulos was a fictional character on The Simpsons, voiced by Jon Lovitz, in Homer Defined episode. Ari is the owner of the Shelbyville Nuclear Power Plant. He is introduced to Homer by Mr. Burns after Homer unwittingly "saves" the plant from a total melt down. Ari wants Homer the hero to give a pep talk to his plant's lackluster workers as to what it means to be a valuable employee. Homer is hesitant to accept, but Burns forces him into it. At the Shelbyville Nuclear Power Plant, Homer is giving a bumbling speech when an impending meltdown threatens the Shelbyville plant. They all turn to "Hero Homer" and usher him into the control room, asking him to perform his heroic deeds once more. In front of everyone, Homer repeats his juvenile rhyme that saved him the first time and presses a button blindly and once more by sheer dumb luck, he manages to avert this meltdown as well. Ari is bewildered that his supposed "hero" was such an idiot. But Homer is even more widely derided as a lucky imbecile than he was hailed as a hero, and "to pull a Homer" becomes a widely-used phrase meaning "to succeed despite idiocy".
He also appeared in the Homer at the Bat as the rival team to Mr. Flander's baseball team.
It's implied at the end of 24 Minutes that he might have been killed, as the ending had a nuclear bomb going off at Shelbyville.
