He lives with Waylon Smithers for a short while, and gets put in the Retirement Castle. Soon, Burns begs for the help of Lisa, She rejects but after patience and irratation, she gives in to help him. Eventually, Burns opens the Little Lisa Recycling Plant. It all goes well until Lisa realises burns is 'recycling' the bottle plastic containers together to clean the sea and sell the meat. Everyone but Lisa in town is ,apparently, brainwashed to recycle until Lisa tries to stop Mr Burns. It ends with Mr Burns selling the Plant for $120 million. He offers 10% to Lisa, she refuses and Homer has four simultaneous heart attacks (thinking she turned down $12000 dollars). She later says that 10% of $120 million wasn't 12000 it was 12 million. Homer suffers another heart attack.
