Plot
The Thing and I
Bart and Lisa hear strange noises coming from the attic one night and get curious about them. The next morning, they ask Homer and Marge about the noises. Homer and Marge tell them to never go up into the attic. Homer then goes up to the attic with a bucket of fish heads. The next time Homer and Marge are out of the house, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie go into the attic to see what's up there. They see what they think is a monster and get scared and flee. During this, the monster got out of its chains and seemingly escaped from the house.
When Homer and Marge return, Bart and Lisa tell them that something escaped from the attic. Homer and Marge then explain that Bart was a conjoined twin, and the other twin, Hugo, was found to be evil. They kept him locked in the attic whilst Bart got to live his life. Homer and Marge then call Dr. Hibbert and they all go to find Hugo, leaving Bart alone. Hugo then shows himself to Bart, having not actually left the house. Hugo takes Bart up to the attic so that he can sew him and Bart back together again, believing that they were better that way. Dr. Hibbert then enters the attic and knocks Hugo out. Dr. Hibbert then realizes that the scar on Hugo doesn't match him being the left twin, so that makes Bart the evil twin. Bart is then confined to the attic whilst Hugo lives with the rest of the family.
The Genesis Tub
For Lisa's science fair project, she places a tooth in a tub with Buzz Cola to see the effect of cola on teeth. Bart then enters Lisa's room to show her his "science project", which is him using a balloon to give Lisa a static shock. Lisa then touches her tooth in the tub and transfers the static electricity into the tooth and cola. The next morning, Lisa wakes up to find that mold has grown around the tooth. She then uses her microscope to find that there is a tiny stone age civilization living in the mold.
The new microscopic beings start advancing at a very fast rate, eventually outmatching Earth's technology. As Lisa is studying her new life, Bart comes along and sticks his finger into the tub. This causes massive damage to the city and angers the people. They create spaceships and fly out to attack Bart in his sleep. Bart gets outraged at this and tries to destroy The Little Universe, but Lisa stops him. Bart tells Lisa that she won't be able to protect it forever and leaves. A shrink ray is then used from The Little Universe and hits Lisa, shrinking her down.
The people of the city introduce themselves to Lisa and worship her as their god. They are then shocked to find out that Bart, who they refer to as the devil, is Lisa's brother. When Lisa asks to be grown again, the people tell her that they can't do that. Bart then comes back and takes The Little Universe and submits it as his own science project, winning the science fair. Lisa gets annoyed as she should have won the gift certificate then demands that her people bring her some nice shoes.
Citizen Kang
Kang and Kodos capture Homer and ask who his leader is. Homer says there's going to be an election, so Kang becomes Bob Dole and Kodos becomes Bill Clinton. Before dumping Homer off their ship, Kang sprays him with rum so that no one believes him. On the day of the election, Homer stumbles upon Kang and Kodos' ship and goes inside to free the real Clinton and Dole. He accidentally pilots the ship into space. Clinton and Dole agree on leading the country together and ask Homer to let them out. Homer accidentally ejects them from the ship and they die from the lack of oxygen and float on into the dark void of space. Homer then crashes the ship into the White House and climbs down and exposes Kang and Kodos to be aliens. Despite not being the real competitors, the people have to vote for one of them anyway. One of the citizens suggest a third-party vote, and Kang replies, "Oh, sure. Go ahead, throw away your vote." In the end, Kang wins the election. As the president he and the Rigellians enslave the human race to build a giant laser cannon to fire at a planet the humans have never heard of. Marge comments that Homer was right but that it's his fault that they're enslaved. Homer replies, "Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos." and is whipped by a Rigellian.
