Plot
Krusty's extravagant lifestyle is eating into his profits. Along with this, he owes money to the mob. His accountant informs him that he will be bankrupt in a month, and suggests opening up a clown college, to train people to act as him for various events and functions.
It just so happens that a billboard of the new clown college catches Homer's eye. Unable to get the image out of his head, he decides to join. After graduating, Homer shows up for various Krusty events, but soon tires of the pratfalls and punchlines. Homer then finds that his similarity to Krusty allows people to assume he is the real clown, and ends up getting free stuff and kickbacks.
Meanwhile, Krusty is in trouble with Fat Tony, and skips town. Tony and his goons see Homer attempting to purchase a vehicle, and kidnap him.
