- Bart: Now I'll never get my hands on that---
- Comic Book Guy: Wait, rapscallion! If you bring me the definitive glossary of comic book sound effects so I can provide scholarly footnotes in my letters to numerous editors, I will trade you for it.
- Bart: Deal!
- Bart: [thinking] That's a cinch. I've read enough comics I can make one, myself.
- Comic Book Guy: And if it doesn't include the best sound effect ever, "Kracka-Thoom!", it's not definitive!
- Bart: Wham, ka-blam, pow, whump, krack, crash, and slurp. Is that it? If I don't find more sound effects I won't be able to trade for that "Radioactive Man"!
- Lisa: What's all the hubbub, bub?
- Bart: I'm making a glossary of comic book sound effects.
- Lisa: Wow... I'm impressed!
- Bart: Eat my shorts. But just to make sure, a glossary is like a dictionary, right?
- Lisa: Researching old comics is a good start, but it's limiting.
- Bart: What do you mean?
- Lisa: Listen. What sounds do you hear?
- Sounds: Zzzzzzzzzzzzz
- Bart: Zzzzz. snurk.... gnughn... and flib-bidi-libbida-bip.
- Sounds: I-libbid-abip!
- Lisa: I read that one of the most valued contributors to the Oxford English Dictionary was a murder who was confined to lunatic asylum. I think you'll do fine.
- Bart: Thanks, Lisa. I just go an Idea for some field research!
- Homer: Why you little-!
- Bart: Comic Book Guy will love hearing this—it is "klonk" with a "k"!
