Rosa Barks *bark* On my way, Chief.
Narrator Meanwhile, in the basement...
Wiggum - Guilty Alright, I'm willing to concede that we may have lost control here.

Wiggum Or we hire a LOUD dog behavior expert to trick the dogs into giving the power back to us.
Lou These dogs are pretty smart. Do you really think an expert can outsmart them?
Wiggum Pfft, just leave it to me, Lou.
Wiggum - Confused By which I mean the expert. But leave it to me to hire the expert – and then we'll leave it all up to the expert.

Wiggum So you're from the Dognitive Behavioral Therapy Institute?

Wiggum I don't want to hear that again so please proceed.
Elaine Wolff I'm a firm believer in getting inside the mind of a dog to really analyze their motivations. I can solve your pooch problem by bringing in an expert.

Elaine Wolff Of course. The carrot and the stick. It's classic behavioral conditioning.
Wiggum - Confused You can understand him?
Elaine Wolff When you're married to a crazy person for ten years, you pick up some things.

McGriff the Crime Dog I'm the one asking the questions, ma'am.
McGriff the Crime Dog Now Mr. Simpson, is your dog, in fact, a good boy?
