History
After Homer lost his job at the Power Plant, he found out that CarGo was hiring and applied. Antoine and Zora liked Homer due to his abysmal driving record and his passiveness. After this interview, Homer made it through to the final stage of the application. Antoine and Zora told everyone to sit for hours doing nothing, which Homer succeeded at doing, getting the job. Antoine and Zora then show Homer the self-driving car, then get annoyed at him when Homer doesn't seem to understand that it drives itself. Antoine then goes with Homer on his first test drive.
When Homer and Marge convinced the programmers to start having fun, Antoine and Zora decided to promote Homer and hire Marge because they inspired their workers. When Homer and Marge realized the cars were listening in on their conversations, they confronted Anroine and Zora about this. Antoine told them that the cars used their conversations to take them to their corporate sponsors. He then told them that they signed nondisclosure agreements so they couldn't stop them.
When Marge found out that Homer, Mr. Burns and Smithers were shutting down the self-driving cars, she went to tell Antoine and Zora. They then told Marge that the next step for their company was to move the microphone to the key fob so they could always hear what their customers were talking about. Marge then helped shut down the cars.
Later, Antoine showed off the new way to win over consumers, talking tattoos.
