Hey, look at this classified ad for the Arcturus Modelling Agency. I'm a shoo in!

"Seeking fat, middle-aged, bald man with background in nuclear safety". Dad, don't you think this ad is suspiciously targeted at you?

|
Just because I have one of those things -- a background in nuclear safety?
|
|
Also, since when do we get the newspaper? When does ANYONE get the paper?

Well, I can't ignore a tiny ad in a dead paper. I'm off to catch my big break!

Good luck improving on this beefcake.

Hair and muzzle makeup wasn't so hard – I don't see what all those models are complaining about.
|
|
Homer, you must initiate Project Lazarus. Gather minions and form your own superpower.
|
|
Oh, no! I've developed a judgmental inner voice, like all models!

The voice you hear is coming from the headset we gave you.

I THOUGHT you were different from the voices I usually hear.

|
How 'bout Krusty Burger? They've got free WiFi and a new seven-patty burger, called the Widowmaker. It makes funerals fun again!
|
|
This will be a brand new state-of-the-art facility, not some slop factory. I've set up an account for you with near-unlimited funds.

Thanks, but I'll just get Sky Finger to pay for it.

A talking car?! I knew they were real!
|
|
No, Homer, over here.
|
|
Mr. Scorpio? I thought you… you know… died.
|
|
You can't kill an idea, Homer – just break many of its bones, collapse some of its organs and force it into hiding. But I'm back, and I want you to be my number two.
|
|
A fella always dreams of meeting a number one who needs a number two!

That would be four. We'll need more than that.

Willie can hide cameras everywhere and watch ‘em all from me custodian's closet.

I appreciate the disturbing offer, but we need to think bigger. I'm talking global positioning satellite levels of peeping tomfoolery.

In my day, we used to just root through people's garbage.

Hey, you're talkin' about my home there!

Task: "Build the Surveillance Post". Task: "Launch the Drone Scan".

Uh oh, I think I broke something.

What, that flash? Drones have a tendency to overload like that.

Lucky for us, it also wipes the memory of anyone who looks at it and sends them packing.

You did cover your eyes for that, didn't you?
|
|
Um… what answer doesn't make me look stupid…?

Oh, brother.
