Synopsis[edit]

"Bart is separated from his family at the airport, gets on the wrong flight, and ends up in a seat reserved for a boy his age named "Brit" Simpson, ending up in England. Once there, Bart finds himself in the town of Springshire, where everything looks and everyone acts all too familiar. He even has to evade the evil Sideshow Bobby, a former police officer with a grudge against Brit."


Plot[edit]

The Simpson family is sitting on a plane and finds out that Bart is not with them; instead, another boy is in his seat. They are worried about what has happened to Bart. It turns out he was sitting in first class in the airplane. Before the plane took off, Bart went to get a first class ticket. When his family boarded the plane, however, Homer accidentally brought another boy instead of Bart. Bart leaves his seat to visit his family in second class, but he finds he is on a plane to England. When the plane lands, the other boy's family, whose name is also Simpson, discovers that they have the wrong boy with them. The mom, Marnie Simpson, calls Marge and they find out that it will take a week before the airline can send the boys home, so each boy must stay with the other one's family in the meantime. The English Simpson family lives in the town of Springshire. The eldest daughter, Lily, shows Bart the house and his new bedroom. Bart follows the father, Omar, to his workplace, the Springshire Wind Power Plant, and discovers that he has a worse job than Homer.

The next day, Bart and Lily go to school, where Bart becomes popular among the students by telling them all he knows about American history. Bart's story is not liked by the teacher, Mrs. Plumtree, but is a hit among the students. He becomes best friends with Milquetoast and plays with him after school. Bart and Lily watch Fish & Chip, which is part of Krumpet the Klown's TV show. Omar comes home early because the wind stopped blowing, so he has no job. Omar tries to watch TV, but the signal is cut because he has not paid the TV license. Bart wants to help him get more money so he can afford it, so they open an amusement park called Wind World. The amusement park becomes popular, but as the wind increases in force, the Ferris wheel begins to rotate faster until it breaks off its base, and Bart and Omar are trapped on the Ferris wheel, which crashes into the candy floss machine. It doesn't stop rotating until it is in the middle of Westminster Bridge. After it starts raining, the candyfloss melts. After a week, the boys go home again. When Bart comes home, he discovers that the town is not the same as before and Homer and Lisa tell him what happened while he was away: it turns out that the other boy, Brit Simpson, is the best prankster ever.
