Plot
When Homer, Lisa, Bart come back from Trick-or-Treating, they get a load of candy. Marge tells them not to eat too much or they'll get nightmares. They all scoff at her, but they do have nightmares.
- Lisa's Nightmare: The Simpsons visit Morroco and Homer buys a mysterious monkey's paw that grants wishes but with great misfortune. Maggie then wishes for a golden pacifier, Bart wishes for fame and fortune, but everyone dislikes them since they're so famous. Lisa wishes for world peace, but when Kang and Kodos see that the Earth is vulnerable, they attack. Homer then wishes for a turkey sandwich, which was supposed to save everyone (according to Homer). The Turkey turned out to be a little dry, and to his disgust, throws the paw away and Ned Flanders finds it. He wishes that the aliens would leave and that he lived in a castle.
- Bart's Nightmare: Bart is a boy who's able to bend reality with his mind and he will turn anyone who thinks badly about him into a creature. Marge tells Homer Bart's out of control and Homer goes to him. Bart then turns him into a jack-in-the-box. They start to spend quality time and Bart becomes less mean and turns Homer back to normal. Then Homer kisses Bart and Bart wakes up, horrified.
- Homer's Nightmare: Homer is fired from his job and he becomes a grave digger. He falls asleep in an open grave. Mr. Burns and Smithers think he's dead and take him to their lab to take out his brain and put it in a robot. The robot then acts like Homer when Mr. Burns expected the ultimate worker, they return the brain (Smithers convinces him to do so), The robot falls on Mr. Burns and crushes him and his head is sewed to Homer's body. Homer wakes up and realizes that Mr. Burns' head is actually sewed on him.
