It turns out Bart ate all the cookies and then he goes to bed and has a nightmare. It starts when ominious heads of Homer, Marge, Lisa, and Maggie appear and say quotes from The Shell Game. Bart then falls out of his bed and is on a kitchen counter and is small and ran over by a giant cookie jar. After that, Homer appears and strangles out hero and wakes Bart up. It all turns out that Bart had a scary nightmare and Homer offers Bart a cookie only to have Bart scream like a girl.
