"Stark Raving Dad"
"Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington" 037


[When Bart's lucky red hat turns a load of white laundry pink, Homer is forced to wear a pink shirt to work. His shirt catches the eye of Mr. Burns as he reviews the security footage of the employees coming to work, as all the SNPP employees march in unison wearing identical white shirts.]
Burns: Why is that man in pink?
Smithers: Oh, that's Homer Simpson, sir. He's one of your boobs from Sector 7-G.
Burns: Simpson, eh? Well, judging by his outlandish attire, he's some sort of free-thinking anarchist.
Smithers: I'll call Security, sir.
Burns: Excellent. Yes, these color monitors have already paid for themselves.

[In Sector 7-G, Homer's co-workers are laughing behind his back at his pink shirt.]
Carl: Quiet, here he comes!
Lenny: Hey Homer, we saved this doughnut for you with pink frosting on it!
[The other workers laugh uproariously.]
Homer: Mmm, thanks! [takes the donut, then realizes it matches his shirt] Hey! Just because I have a pink shirt doesn't mean...
[Homer's protest is abruptly cut off when security guards arrive and restrain him.]
Security guard: Drop that doughnut now, Pinkie!

[The pink shirt makes Mr. Burns question Homer's sanity. Homer is given the Marvin Monroe take-home personality test to fill out. Homer talks Bart into helping him with it, and Bart tries to administer the questions while Homer watches TV.]
Bart: Hey, Dad, do you hear voices?
Homer: [angry] Yes. I'm hearing one right now while I'm trying to watch TV.
Bart: [checks box] Yes. [moves on to next question] Are you quick to anger?
Homer: Bart! Shut up or I'll shut you up!
Bart: [checks box] Yes. [next question] Do you wet your pants? [thoughtfully] Well, even the best of us has an occasional accident.
[Bart checks "Yes" to the "wet pants" question, then "Yes" to the rest of the questions on the form.]

[The next day, Homer turns in the personality test. After his answers are analyzed, security guards grab Homer to cart him off to the New Bedlam Rest Home for the Emotionally Interesting.]
Smithers: [to security guards] Careful, men. He wets his pants.

[At New Bedlam, Homer is given a Rorshach test. The doctor shows him the first inkblot.]
Homer: The devil with his fly open.
Doctor: Right. [shows the next inkblot]
Homer: Uh, that's a spill on the floor with bugs going after it. Uh, they're going to eat it.
Doctor: Good. [shows the next inkblot, which looks like Bart]
Homer: Let's see, it's [angry] THE BOY!!!!
[Homer lunges at the paper and is restrained by two orderlies.]
Homer: This isn't fair! How can you tell who's sane and who's insane?
Doctor: Well, we have a very simple method. [stamps Homer's hand with a stamp that reads "INSANE"] Whoever has that stamp on his hand is insane.

[The orderlies put Homer into a cell with "the big white guy who thinks he's the little black guy".]

"Michael": One white glove, covered with rhinestones.

[Because Homer is too embarrassed to call his family from a nuthouse, "Michael" makes the call for him.]

"Michael": Hello? Who's this?
Bart: I'm Bart Simpson. Who the hell are you?
"Michael": I'm Michael Jackson.
Bart: [skeptical] The Michael Jackson? [scoffs] No way!
"Michael": It's true. I'm with your father in a mental institution.
Bart: Uh-huh. And is Elvis with you?
"Michael": Could be. It's a big hospital.
Bart: Aw, c'mon. If you're really Michael Jackson, who were your last four dates for the Grammys?

Bart: Shiver me timbers! You are Michael Jackson!

[A nurse gathers Homer and some other patients together to discuss their problems.]
