Driven to Drink: The LifeBoat Story is a documentary series about LifeBoat, founded by Persephone Odair.
Plot
The documentary started off with an interview between Lisa Simpson and Persephone, where Persephone explained why she made LifeBoat. Her grandfather was a World War II sailor whose ship was destroyed by a torpedo. He survived on a life boat, but had no drinkable water. Eventually, he died from dehydration. Persephone then asked Lisa if she knew any billionaires, and Lisa mentioned Mr. Burns, but told Persephone not to go to him. However, Persephone went to convince him to fund LifeBoat anyway. Eventually Burns accepted and went into partnership with Persephone.
The documentary continued going over the start up of the company, where it was revealed that Burns gave one of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant cooling towers over to Persephone and LifeBoat, along with the staff of Sector 7-G. The company became a success and Burns and Persephone eventually got married in a private ceremony. After the LifeBoat device was shown off to the board of directors, problems started happening where employees were getting fired. Professor Frink, who was the lead scientist on what happened inside the LifeBoat device, wasn't even allowed to see what was inside it. And after Carl Carlson had concerns about LifeBoat, he emailed Persephone but then went missing. Online reactions towards Persephone started to turn negative so Mr. Burns bought Twitter for her and deleted all the negative tweets.
A whistleblower within LifeBoat came out and revealed that the device was all a sham. When news about Carl's disappearance broke out, Persephone was asked about it by a reporter, who complained about them believing a man who wouldn't reveal his identity over her. After this final episode, the documentary changed to show LifeBoat in a positive light because Mr. Burns bought out the company behind it.
