Well, there's lots of needy kids out there...
I see what you're saying -- I need to buy a gun.
No, Dad. You could really brighten the holidays for those less fortunate.
You're right. It's time to rebuild my self-esteem.
No, Dad. You could really brighten the holidays for those less fortunate.
Hey, what happened to...?
Yessss?
I'd like to buy all these toys for some needy children. Is this enough dirty, dirty money?
Why, I don't think I've ever seen such generosity. You're a modern-day Kris Kringle, sir.
I'm just tryin' to dig myself out of a pit of shame.
Say no more. I had a bit of a shoe-sniffing problem myself. I'm still not allowed on the third floor.
It's okay.
Wanna rehearse, Dad?
I don't need to rehearse. Ho, ho, ho, Merry... Line!
Christmas.
What? Lemme see that.
Prepare to be boarded!
What are you doing here? I told you I'm not your monkey anymore.
Not for one million dollars?
Oh, so much money...
Not for one million dollars?
But Santa can't be evil...
Not for one million dollars?
But it's so much money.
Oh, Dad. You sold your soul.
Not yet, honey.
What's going on?
Let's just say Lisa gave me an early Christmas present. The gift of dignity.
Didn't you get the e-mail?
What's an e-mail?
Or a quiet phone call.
I don't have a computer.
Why not? Anything goes today.
That does it. I'm getting a computer! As soon as somebody lets me outta here!
Why not? Anything goes today.
Oh. I'm so stupid.
Hmmm, well, do you need a paperweight? Because if you buy that machine, that's all you're gonna have. Is an expensive paperweight.
Well, a paperweight would be nice, but what I really need is a computer. How about that one?
Mm-hm. That technology is three months old. Only suckers buy out of date machines. You're not a sucker, are you, sir?
Heavens, no!
Oh, good, because if you were I would have to ask you to leave the store.
I just need something to receive e-mail.
That's the same computer astronauts use to do their taxes.
I was an astronaut.
Of course you were.
Five thousand dollars!
You only have ten seconds to decide, sir.
This is the best computer in the world and always will be, right?
Dad, you shouldn't drag that around.
That's right! Top of the line!
Dad, you shouldn't drag that around.
Stupid pothole. Don't worry, head. The computer will do our thinking now.
Did I hear my name? My ears are burnin'.
Good start! Now finish the job!
Ah, you're busy. Catch you later, compu-tater.
$5000 for a computer and it can't handle a simple assignment.
Dad, I'll set up your computer. Why don't you and Bart go play in the back yard?
You're it!
Okay, you're ready to go. I've written down the basic commands so that anyone can understand them.
Hmmmmm.
Homer, bring that back in the house.
Fine!
Homer, bring that back in the house.
Ooh, a dancing Jesus. De-de-de-de-de-de-de-de. If there's a better use for the Internet, I haven't found it.
You have the right to remain fabulous!
Here it is, everybody! The world's greatest website!
You have the right to remain fabulous!
You'd think all the noises would be annoying, but they're not.
I got suspended from school today.
No kiddin'. What do you think of my page, Lisa? Be honest. It's great, isn't it? Go ahead and say it's great if you want to.
I took a swing at a cop.
They can't sue me if they don't know who I am. I'll just call myself Mr. X.
I'm just mad all the time.
Yep, you can't go wrong with Mr. X.
Mom wants you to come to bed.
I can't. My web page hasn't gotten a single hit.
Mom wants you to come to bed.
Come on.
You have to offer people something: a joke, an opinion, an idea...
That lousy pothole! Why don't they fix it?
I heard Mayor Quimby spent the street repair fund on a secret swimming pool for himself.
Get out! Who told you that?
Nelson.
Hmm, that's the kind of dirt that belongs on my web page.
You can't post that on the Internet. You don't even know if it's true.
Nelson has never steered me wrong, honey. Nelson is gold.
You know, it might've been Jimbo.
Beautiful. We have confirmation.
Good Lord! We've discovered the ruins of an ancient city! Okay, you do better.
I did it. I changed the world. Now I know exactly how God feels.
Do you want turkey sausage or ham?
Bring me two of every animal.
A new Internet watchdog is creating a stir in Springfield. Mr. X, if that is his real name, has come up with a sensational scoop.
Darn tootin'.
I'm happy you got the potholes filled, but it's still irresponsible to present rumors as facts. Maybe you should quit while you're ahead.
No way! Mr. X is gonna keep on digging... and probing... until every person in this town is in jail!
The public should be warned. I wish Mr. X were here.
Oh, I don't know, Carl. He might be closer than you think.
Are you him? Are you Mr. X?
No!
Uh, but you talked in that real sly voice. Hey, hey, everybody, Homer's Mr. X!
I am not. Or am I?
Are you?
No!
Well, if Mr. X were here right now, I'd buy him a tall frosty.
Hey, Moe, can you keep a secret?
No.
Not even a little one?
No.
What if I just whisper it?
Oh, pshaw.
I love spying.
Let go of me! I'm innocent!
Whoa... He's in trouble.
Unfortunately, we don't know who he is. So his cash award will be used to feed starving children.
Nooo!
Unfortunately, we don't know who he is. So his cash award will be used to feed starving children.
I'm Mr. X! Gimme! Gimme!
He is Mr. X! Hah!
Thank you, folks. And now I'm off to expose more secret conspiracies and...
He is Mr. X! Hah!
I bit my tongue!
I'm proud that you won the Pulitzer...
Finally.
But I do feel bad about the starving children...
They're with God now.
Oh, well, that's good... Oh.
Hey, guys. How's it goin'?
Oh, well, that's good... Oh.
Oh, don't worry about the Mr. X thing. I'm just here for a beer.
So hungry.
I smell another Pulitzer.
Well, you can't post news if you don't have any.
That's a great idea! I'll make up some news!
At least take off your Pulitzer Prize when you say that.
Let's see now... "BULLETIN: New Race Discovered Living Six Inches Under... Denver."
Oh, Dad...
All Named 'Morton'... or... 'Mortonson'...
Hey, Mr. X! I got a tip for ya. In science class, they're dissecting frozen hoboes. And I have the bindles to prove it.
Real news is great, son. But I'm gettin' a thousand hits an hour with grade-A bull plop.
Hey, Mr. X! I got a tip for ya. In science class, they're dissecting frozen hoboes. And I have the bindles to prove it.
Gimme a hundred Lotto tickets, Apu. Because Mr. X is on a roll.
Hey, Mr. X! I got a tip for ya. In science class, they're dissecting frozen hoboes. And I have the bindles to prove it.
Stop it, Apu. You're scaring me.
Hey, Mr. X! I got a tip for ya. In science class, they're dissecting frozen hoboes. And I have the bindles to prove it.
What's going on?
Hey, Mr. X! I got a tip for ya. In science class, they're dissecting frozen hoboes. And I have the bindles to prove it.
Help, I'm being kidnapped!
This is... The Island.
How do I get outta here?
Oh, no one leaves The Island.
So I'm a prisoner? How come?
Because you know something.
But I don't know anything. At least I don't think I do.
See you tomorrow.
No you won't!
I'm Number 15. What number are you?
I am not a number, I am a man. And don't you ever... Oh, wait, I'm Number 5. Ha ha! In your face, Number 6!
Yes, well done.
Who are all these oddballs?
Well, they keep us here because we know too much. Number 27 there knows how to turn water into gasoline. Number 12 knows the deadly secret behind Tic-Tacs. And I invented the bottomless peanut bag.
Wow.
Well, they keep us here because we know too much. Number 27 there knows how to turn water into gasoline. Number 12 knows the deadly secret behind Tic-Tacs. And I invented the bottomless peanut bag.
So, who brought us here?
I don't know.
Did you bring us here?
Uh, the shoes are part of the uniform.
Oh, they drugged the tea. They knew my one weakness.
Ow. Please. Don't do that.
Sorry.
I'll be blunt. Your web page has stumbled upon our secret plan.
That's impossible. All my stories are bull plop. Bull plop!
Oh don't be cute. I'm referring to the flu shot exposé. You see, we're the ones loading them with mind-controlling additives.
But why?
To drive people into a frenzy of shopping. That's why flu shots are given just before Christmas.
Of course! It's so simple... Wait, no it's not. It's needlessly complicated.
Yes it is. And we can't have you out there mucking it up now, can we?
No, sir.
There's a good boy. Let's get you some ice cream. There you are.
Look, you can drug me all you want, but my family won't rest till they find my drug-bloated corpse.
I wouldn't count on that, Number 5. As far as your family knows, Homer Simpson is walking in the front door right about now.
I'm sorry. What?
I am a new tie wearing.
I'm tired of being drugged and gagged. There's gotta be a way to escaped.
Sorry, old chap. But you're proving quite the caterpillar in our buttermilk.
Huh?
We're shutting you down.
Not a chance. No one can silence me, but me!
That arranged can be.
Whuh?
Yes, fight and struggle!
If I know me, he won't like being kicked in the crotch.
Yes, fight and struggle!
Oh, Marge. It's me, the real Homer!
Can I turn this off?
Absolutely.
The dog thinks so, too.
The dog thinks so...
The dog thinks so, too.
Bad dog.
