Quotes and Scene Summaries


Lisa is playing with two Happy Little Elves dolls in the living room, when Bart jumps out from behind the couch, toy gun in hand. He pretends to shoot Lisa. Lisa: Don't you realize that playing with guns is an obvious cover-up for your male inadequacies? Bart: Oh, yeah? Well ... why would anyone play with dolls? Lisa: Why would anyone play with you? Bart: [angry] Why would anyone play with you? Lisa: [angry] Why would anyone play with you? Bart: [angry] Why would anyone play with you? Homer walks in and picks both of the kids up by the back of their shirts. Homer: Why would anyone play with either of you?!

This capsule is ©1999 by Jordan Eisenberg. The Simpsons and Butterfinger remain the propeties of FOX and Butterfinger, respectively. Any meaningful contributions to society at large by my work here was stricty unintentional. Thanks to Brian Petersen for supplying tapes of the commercials, without which there could be no capsule.
