[[Lisa]] is happy she has received an A++ but gets annoyed when she gets laughed at by the other students in the school playground when the [[school bus]] soaks her. In [[Springfield Prison]] at the same time [[Cecil Terwilliger]] is getting sprayed with the water hose by mistake by [[Eddie]]. Later that day it is time for [[Sideshow Bob]]'s monthly parole hearing. Cecil complains to Wiggum that he never gets one and they discovered that he is not in the prison register and so he is set free. Cecil moves into [[Dr. Colossus]]' old house while at the time Lisa is eating dinner. She gets upset when no one listens to her but do to [[Bart]]. Cecil is thinking of a plan so that he becomes as famous as his brother and after he dismisses Bart Simpson, he chooses to kill Lisa Simpson. Next week get Lisa death threats by mail and Bart gets upset that he did not get it. [[Marge]] contacts the prison where Sideshow Bob is and they verify he is still there. When Lisa comes to the school, she notices that they reduced the music budget and banned saxophone at the school. After school, Lisa goes to the library only to discover that [[Comic Book Guy]] bought it. Bart still does not understand why Sideshow Bob is looking for Lisa, and when it is time for [[The Krusty the Clown Show]] it is suspended. Later in the evening it's announced on the radio that [[Springfield Elementary]] is permanently closed and Lisa gets even more depressed while Bart is happy. When Lisa tries to sleep, she remembers that the handwriting in the letter is not the same as Sideshow Bob's after comparing his threatening letters to the one she received. Lisa talks to Bart and he says he has a homepage about Lisa on the Internet and it's probably why someone knows so much about Lisa. Lisa contacts {{ap|Benjamin|nerd}}, {{ap|Doug|nerd}} and {{ap|Gary|nerd}} who finds the IP address of the person who visited the website and where is located. Bart and Lisa go to the house and outside they get kidnapped by Cecil who thinks about throwing them in boiling water. Lisa lets him first tell her about his plan and it turns out that Homer's nerd friends were onto everything. In the middle of discussion between Lisa and Cecil about the details of his plan the police come to arrest him and rescue Bart and Lisa. It turned out that Lisa suspected they would be kidnapped and called the police, and like most villains, he is dependent on the Stockholm Syndrome. In prison, Sideshow Bob is angry that Cecil has become so popular and Lisa is happy and she has an arch-rival and goes to sleep.

Plot

At Springfield Elementary School, the kids are fleeing whilst Lisa thinks about what a wonderful day it is. Lisa then gets splashed by the school bus as it went through a puddle. All the kids laugh at Lisa as they get on the bus. With everyone saying hi to Bart, a new kid asks who Bart is. After Martin explains who he is, Lisa tells the new kid about herself, and Martin points out that she's Bart's sister. The new kid then says that it must be great having such a cool brother. At Springfield Penitentiary, Cecil Terwilliger is accidentally drenched with water by Eddie, who was testing out the riot hose. As Sideshow Bob walks through the yard, all the prisoners greet him. When a new prisoner asks who Bob is, Snake explains that he's a homicidal genius. When Cecil tries to introduce himself, Snake points out that he's Bob's brother. Shortly after, Bob's monthly parole hearing is ready to happen. Cecil questions why he never gets a parole hearing and Chief Wiggum realizes that Cecil was never processed as a prisoner, so he was free to go. After leaving prison, Cecil finds himself a new hideout, taking over Doctor Colossus' old one since he didn't pay his rent on time.

During dinner, Lisa tries to talk about her music but is ignored by the family, who are waiting for Bart to talk. Bart then apologizes for getting Agnes Skinner arrested for crimes against humanity and the family talks about that rather than listening to Lisa. Lisa then storms off to her room. Meanwhile, Cecil is trying to figure out a plan to get out from his brother's shadow. After briefly considering killing Bart Simpson, Cecil decides to destroy Lisa instead. The next week, a death threat arrives at the Simpson house. Despite Bart thinking it was for him, it turns out to be directed at Lisa instead. Marge calls the police and Chief Wiggum confirms that Bob's still in prison. When the kids get to school, Lisa finds out that music class has been eliminated due to budget cuts, and when she confronts Principal Skinner, he confiscates her saxophone from her.

Lisa's life gets continually worse when she finds out that Comic Book Guy now owns the Springfield Public Library and is replacing all the books with graphic novels, and when The Krusty the Clown Show replaces The Itchy & Scratchy Show with a British comedy instead. After Marge calls the police to once again confirm that Bob is still in prison, the radio announces that Lisa's school is now permanently closed. Later that night, Lisa goes through Bart's previous death threats and finds out that the handwriting on the letters is similar to the ones from Sideshow Bob, but is slightly different. After Bart reveals that he's put Lisa's secrets and the things she cares about online, a wrecking ball comes through the wall. Bart and Lisa then decide to do something about the attacks against her.

Bart and Lisa go to Benjamin, Doug, and Gary and have them trace down the IP address of the person who accessed Bart's website. They find that it leads to 125 Hideout Road, and when they're spying on it, Cecil captures them. Cecil then explains his plan and how he orchestrated everything. He got onto the school board and quickly took charge as everyone else was bored and then got the school to ban music and eventually close. He then repeated this with the library committee to get Comic Book Guy ownership of the library. Finally, he got Benjamin, Doug, and Gary to blackmail Krusty to get The Itchy & Scratchy Show off the air. When he's then questioned about the wrecking balls, Cecil says that wasn't him. It turns out that Homer had annoyed the Construction Workers' Union by eating their lunches.

Cecil plans on lowering Bart and Lisa into liquid nitrogen to turn them into frozen trophies. As he gets ready to do so, the police break in to arrest Cecil. Cecil realizes that they called the police before he captured them and they were just stalling for time until they got to the hideout. Lisa and Cecil then bond over being arch-enemies and Cecil is taken back to prison. When back in prison, Cecil is taken to solitary and is happy over being considered the worst Terwilliger, whilst Lisa falls asleep next to her first death threat note.
