Plot
When the family gets cyber-robbed, there is no money left for their family vacation. They go to a savings seminar to help with their problems. They find out that they can get cheap plane tickets to anywhere when there isn't anyone occupying the seats. The flight they go onto is heading for Tokyo. They start buying various things that cost a fortune there and Homer is arrested for attacking the emperor (he thought he was a sumo wrestler). Then they're stuck with 1,000,000 yen (Japanese currency), but they need that money to get home. Their money is then blown away in the wind when Homer folds a flying crane origami to show Lisa "something Japanese." They try to earn money by gutting fish at the Osaka Fish Concern, when on the TV they see the "Super Happy Smile Time Family Wish Show" that can grant the winners a wish if they win. They go the game show to win plane tickets back to Springfield, but to get them, they have to grab them off a bridge that's suspended above a volcano. Meanwhile back in Springfield, Moe sees Homer on TV and he, Lenny, and Carl find out Barney was putting beers on Homer's tab. Back in Japan, the Simpsons get the tickets, but fall in the lava, which turns out to be a Orangeade loaded with Wasabi. When taking off for their return trip home, the Simpsons' plane is attacked by Godzilla, who happens to also be battling Rodan and Mothra, among others. Their plane wriggles free, and they return to Springfield without further incident.
