"If you're so sure what it ain't, how 'bout telling us what it am?"

―Moe, to Lisa

"Speaking from a strictly medical point of view…that ain't right."

―Dr. Hibbert

The Angel Skeleton (aka the Springfield Angel) was a supposed skeleton of an angel that was excavated by Lisa at Sabertooth Meadow, the soon-to-be sight of a new mega mall.

The skeleton created a scandal in the town, and sparked age-old debates of science vs. religion.

As it turns out, the skeleton was a hoax to advertise the new mall, aptly named the Heavenly Hills.

Behind the Laughter

A scene explaining the contents of the skeleton, which included plaster, among other things, was not used in the finalized episode.
