Lisa *raises hand* Krusty?
Clown Principal Krusty - Happy Yes, dear. Do you want a bawoon animal?

Lisa - Thoughtful I might be interested, but only if you can demonstrate how clowning benefits mankind.
Clown Principal Krusty What's that? You want to see my performing tiger?! *laughs*
Lisa - Sad I said nothing of the sort. It's cruel to keep animals caged for our amusement.
Clown Principal Krusty - Happy Well then let's let him out, shall we? *opens tiger cage*
Miss Hoover - Confused Is part of his performance to jump out the open window where the fourth graders are having recess?

Wiggum - Annoyed I don't see that tiger wearing a leash, Lou. Do you?
Lisa - Confused Is releasing the tiger some kind of metaphor for breaking the shackles of society?
Clown Principal Krusty - Annoyed No, it's a metaphor for me getting screwed. Do you know how much that tiger cost?
Wiggum - Serious Not nearly as much as the animal rescue team is gonna run you.
Clown Principal Krusty I did get one kid to sign up, so today wasn't a total bust.
Ralph - Happy This tiger's breath smells like tiger food.
Clown Principal Krusty - Exhausted I stand corrected.
