When Mensa International disscussed the problems about the lesser intelligent (seemingly "stupid") Springfiedians, they rampaged The Mayors Office with evidence to prove their case. The Mayor however (Quimby I) had all his evidence destroyed and fleed town via air. By law, Mensa Springfield were now in charge of Springfield, - intending to make it perfect for Springfiedians with extremely high IQ's. After their gazeebo was taken over by idiots, - they stood up to them, until Stephen Hawking showed up. Proffesor Hawking then used his built-in boxing glove to elliminate on of the Sprigfiedian Mensans: Seymour Skinner. A riot then started as the Springfield Idiots attacked Gazeebo 7 and the proffessor flew out just in time using his built-in hover-device. Mayor Quimby I then returned to Springfield to take full power.
