Plot
Aesop, played by Ned Flanders, is telling fables to the public but Homer keeps interrupting to jazz them up.
The Ant and the Grasshopper
An ant (Flanders) is working hard preparing for winter while a grasshopper (Homer) lazes about all day on his fiddle. When winter arrives, the ant offers the grasshopper half of his food, but the grasshopper eats it all.
The Fox and the Grapes
A fox (Moe) asks Bart (who repeatedly cries 'wolf') to reach some grapes for him. A dog (Santa's Little Helper) loses his bone in a river trying to attack his reflection. The wind (Selma) and the sun (Patty) have made a bet to see who can make Bart take his jacket off. Bart takes it off for wind because she gave him five drachmas. Bart uses the money to bet on a tortoise against a hare in a race. The tortoise wins after the hare has been found to have taken steroids. The racetrack gets attacked by Wolfman, the Mummy, Dracula, fighting cocks, an eagle, flying saucers, and mole people.
Aesop tells Homer to stop interrupting, but because Homer's stories are more interesting, Aesop's spot is given to an infomercial. Hypocrates (Dr. Nick) advertises a way to remove a sandal rash.
