They decide to make some films where Springy answer some questions from Bart's friends about the Olympics but they have a problem they can nothing about the Olympics, they ask Lisa but she does not want help them because she will not get any credit so they visit Grampa which provide them with facts about the Olympic Games. Bart and Homer let their friends participate in the videos as illustrator to the answer from the questions. Bart and Homer start filming, theirfirst question is "How did the Olympics get started in the first place?".
It started when Zeus was bored, he did not like what he saw when he watched Earth so and Zeus threatened the people that they must make things more intresteing or he going to wipe out every living thing. On Earth, they decided to start a big sports events to entertain the gods and established the first olympic with sports like running, wrestling, pankration and javelin. Zeus liked what he saw and he find out at he will rest of his life just wants to watch sports, drink and eat ribs. When Zeus' wife asked him why he liked wrestling, he told her at it's for most of them are not wearing clothes which made his wife to also start watching the sport.
The second question Springy answer is "Where were the Ancient Olympics Held?". The story began with the Olympic Commitee, Hercules, Larry King, and Great Poet Homer gatherd where to hold the game. They want to have it in Sheboygan, but beacuse America's was still a wilderness, as Pocahontas still trying to guide Lois and Clark to the Pacific, they could not find a place so they sought out an oracle who told them to talk to god. The comitee go to Thor who did not care where they hold it, Bacchus tell them that they could choose olympia, who have the water which is excellent for brewing beer.
The third question that the answer is "Why Did the First Olympic Atletes Compete in the Nude?". The answer is unlike morden times was the Greeks saturated with corporate sponorship, one day the Olympic Games presented a new opportunity for advertisers, a large Toga with advertising messages, but the athlet had problem to compete in the new toga clothes so the refusing wearing the clothes but they got no further because the sponsors demanded them so they decided to compete naked. The athelets soon found it more confortable to compete naked and since the new record was set they countine to compete naked. They decide in Greece at all have right to dress how they want and after that became Greece a democracy.
Homer and Bart have completed their first three movies and publish them on myTube. Lisa don't like the films for it's chaotic hodgepodge of bad sets, hammy acting and nonsensical history. When Bart tell her that the videos has now been seen by 1.65 million, start Lisa produce her own movie with true information. Meanwhile countine Homer and Bart produce more films about the Olympics with their friends as actors.
The fourth question Bart and Homer got was "Whut en tha wairld di' tha eerly olympians doo fa spairt?" but since they did not understand the question they made a film about "all the events in the early Olympics." The best in was wrestling to the king of the Olympic Commitee closed it as a protest to the nudtiy tax and introduced human lawn darts but they tragic toll it took on lawns point to the fires of war and soon Greece invaded its brother oppostie greece. But the real point of the wrestling was decides to home field advantage for the chariot races Which was stupid beacuse they always had the same winner, Chariotosarus Which was impossible to destroy until twin Wolf Cubs discoverd their secret Weakness. The Chariotosarus Explodes and out of it came two million greek troops because he was a Trojan Chariotosarus. The Greeks and their opposties Greeks fought savagely like Wrestling. Wrestling was only paid part-time so you had to be great in all sports like custard boarding competitive chewing, sitting very still and being very quiet and horseback boxing as a last summary was Wrestling a large part of the sport.
Time for the fifth question, "How did the tradition of the Torch Realy Get Started." The story begins for a long time ago in Greece when the olympics committee need find a new place for the olympic games, meanwhile in the Ancient Greek heaven was Prometheus chased after stealing fire from Zeus but he lost the fire which falling to the ground where the fire starts burning on a stick. They had never seen fire before in the Earth so a Greek took the fire and began to run away with it because he wanted the gift from the gods, soon want everyone in the Greece the fire and began chasing the man who had the fire, finally got a man called Homer it but he had to hide it but he failed and begins to burn himself so he jumped in a pool Which was filled with grease so the fire spread and burned almost the entire city, they then decided to have the Olympics there then, the fire continued as a symbol for a new city to find the Olympics.
Time for the sixth and final question, "Has Been Bowling Even an Olympic Sporting Event." History is unfortunately not so good, it has never been highly ranked, they have tried it as an obstacle in horse jumping, as a gravity in diving and as hunter in 110 m hurdles, but they have not end so well. From the start was bowling a sport that the whales played, but is now popular with all, the sport has not changed so much, in ancient Greece they drank before the game which is happening today and afterwards throw they the balls, the winner is honored as the Olympics. Although bowling is not a branch is currently still sports contestend in a large stadium or bowl.
Lisa has completed her film about the Olympics where she tell the true story about the olympic, for the first olympic games was not created by Zeus or Larry King. It was heled in Olympic in 776 B.C. and Thor and Wonder Woman had nothing with that. The first games was in a "Stadion" where they played discus, javerling throws, boxing, wrestling and pankration. They compete naked to show their esthetic male body and as a tribute to good. The olympic flames was introduced in [[Berlin 1936 Olympics] as a symbolic for prometheus steal the fire from Zeus. And bowling have not a connection to the olympic. Lisa like her movie, although only 12 have seen it and 14 million has seen Bart's film. Bart will then get a visit from an exectuive from the Historical Channel That pay him $5000 for his film.
Bart presents now his movie for the class, Edna like his movie but because is not historical correct, Skinner let him go to summer school. Bart tell him at he'll do anything for avoid it so Lisa presenting an idea for Skinner as Bart accepts, he will not have school under this summer if he gives $5000 dollars to the Special Olympics Program. Bart does it to get a summer vacation, just after he did it came Cheif Wiggum in the class and tell Bart at Bart he must under the summer clean of all graffiti he did at the surveillance tapes.
