Plot
When Homer is playing noisily in the yard, it disrupts Flanders' bible-study group. Coaxed by the reverend, a frustrated Flanders takes it upon himself to redeem Homer by inviting the Simpson family on his church retreat to Jerusalem. Homer gets caught by officals for saying pancakes are better than latkes. The tour guide says Israel is safe. They first go to the old city but unappreciative of the history and culture, Homer would rather hang out at the hotel’s breakfast buffet rather than tour the city. But when an eccentric tour guide takes the group to famous monuments, including the Dome of the Rock and the Wailing Wall, Homer finally proves he is not beyond salvation.[2] They go to where Jesus had the last supper. The tour guide gets in a fight with a guy and Israeli curses. Flanders prays for homer to be saved. He asks him to show respect. He tells him to turn the camera off like dracula and tells him he might benefit from the spririuality. Homer orders falafal with pepperoni and the guy askes if he knows what falafel is. He says yes.
