Lisa! Betcha you can't tell me, in five paragraphs, your favorite thesis and supporting statements about an American President?
|
|
You're trying to get me to write a school essay for you, aren't you?
|
|
Essay writing is hard for me, Lisa. I'm not like you. You know… boring.
|
|
Best be on your way to the library, brother. The Dewey decimal system is a tough nut to crack.
|
|
I'd rather die!

|
I've got it! Why read about the Presidents, when I can go speak to them myself?
|
|
You mean… use Dad's toaster to travel back in time and collect America's greatest leaders?
|
|
That's actually… kind of… brilliant!
|
|
Be back soon. Just need to set this thing to the date of America's founding -- One million B.C.
|
|
Try 1789. But wait… something's nagging at me. The Fourth of July… U.S. Presidents… augh, what is it?
|
|
|
Don't know, don't care. Like I said -- you're boring. Bye!

|
That was quick.
|
|
|
Several months from my point of view. I‘m eleven now, by the way.
|
|
I figured out what was bothering me. Each year at this time, a different ex-President appears in Springfield.
|
|
|
Lincoln, Washington, Roosevelt, Nixon. And now we know why. YOU brought them all here. With Dad's toaster.
|
|
It IS pretty hard to get the return year right when your only time machine control is a “doneness” knob.
|
|
If you'll excuse me, I want to freshen up for whichever ex-Prez is coming this year!
|
Task: "Make Bart Wait for Presidents to Arrive". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 6 seconds.

|
Who's coming this year, Bart?
|
|
|
Mike.
|
|
|
President Mike?
|
|
Plans are nothing, planning is everything!
|
|
|
Oh… “Ike”. Not “Mike”, dummy. As in “I like Ike”.
|
|
Well, so far Cue Ball hasn't written word one of my essay. You can like Ike all you want. I am NOT a fan.
