Synopsis[edit]
Maggie and Bart clash over what to watch on TV, and Maggie gets her way by pulling a prank and framing Bart.
Maggie is sitting on the couch, happily watching The Happy Little Elves on TV. She looks concerned as Bart walks into the living room, and her concern proves to be warranted when Bart picks up the remote and changes the channel to The Itchy & Scratchy Show. Maggie gives Bart a dirty look as he settles into watching Itchy & Scratchy, and when he starts laughing at the cartoon she angrily leaves the room. Maggie then finds some cans of spray paint in a closet, and a crafty expression comes over her face as an idea occurs to her. She picks out a couple of cans and goes to the hallway. She then gets to work spray-painting the wall, quickly making the letters "EL".
Later, as Marge is doing some ironing, Maggie goes to her and gets her attention by urgently tugging on her skirt and pointing in the direction of the hall. She then leads Marge to the hallway, and Marge is dismayed to see the now-completed "El Barto" graffiti tag on the wall. Marge gathers up some cleaning supplies, goes to the living room, grabs Bart by the hand and drags him to the hallway, evidently to make him clean up the graffiti.
Maggie smiles evilly as a confused Bart is led away. Then she changes the TV channel back to The Happy Little Elves, sits back down on the couch and gets back into her show.
