"Now hold on, Armon Tamzarian is an unsavory character who played us all for chumps."

[5F02] [responds to France]

"I stand by my prejudice slur, do your worst you pretensious savages."

"I'll bet I get blamed for this."

[at the witch burning]

"You are all hereby found guilty of the crime of witchcraft. I sentence you hags to be burned at the stake until you are deemed fit to re-enter society."

[later, at a witch trial]

"Let us throw open the floor to wild accusations." "People, let us not turn into an angry mob. Goody Simpson is entitled to due process."

"vote Quimby"

"Do what he says, I'm too rich to die."

[Quimby runs out]

"vote Quimby"

[5F09] [to Homer, the Sanitation Commissioner]

"Simpson, you idiot. You spent your entire years budget in a month. Your department's broke." [Homer says he will find a solution] "You'd better, because those garbage men won't work for free"

"Did I hear a briefcase opening?"

[to Homer]

"I don't know how you did it Homer, but you certainly solved that budget crisis." [trash bulges the ground] "what the hell is that?" [trash comes up] "What's this? Melon rinds, pantyhose, a term paper from Texas Tech, Simpson do you know anything about......"

[at the Town Hall]

"...and all those opposed to horse whipping Homer Simpson. And now, all in favor of reinstating Ray Patterson"

"Now people, we are far from screwed."

"Time for panic has come. We must move forward and turn to the town's all purpose contingency plan." Plan B? "yes, B"

[5F13] [on television]

"I ordered the re-opening of this prison to send a message to the criminals of Springfield. If you commit a violent crime in my town, you are going to end up here. To demonstrate what you're in for, I will now strap myself into this electric chair, which was deactivated over 30 years ago, and I can only assume, still is. Now, as I mime the convulsions of a condemned criminal, I remind my staff not to come to my assistance, no matter how real my performance may be."

"Turn off the chair."

[AABF16] [to the olympic committee]

"And we will do anything. Including, but not limited to, anything, to make your stay here tolerable."

"And that's not all, we've just chosen our official olympic mascot."

[AABF17] [to audience in mall]

The lights dim and a fanfare plays. Mayor Quimby makes an announcement from a central stage.

"Attention, good shoppers of Springfield, someone very special has just entered the store. The world's most popular billionaire..."

"Please welcome the owner of Fortune Megastores, Arthur Fortune!"

[AABF18] [in quimby's office]

Back in their street clothes, the gang marches into Mayor Quimby's office, announcing that the "jig is up" and that their report (on gazebo reservation reform) will change how things are done in the town.

Convinced that one of his scandalous deeds has caught up with him, Quimby calls for his goons, who shred all his incriminating documents. Quimby himself flees on horseback to a waiting plane. Shortly thereafter, the police burst into the office.

% At City Hall, Mayor Quimby tries to fend off the press.

Some reporters see one of the Mayor's aides trying to discreetly close a door behind him and senses that something is up. They barge into the secret room. We see a lavish pool, a roman bath with statues, and girls in bikinis.

A city worker is working with a spade from a bag labeled "pothole cement".

"Good Lord, we've discovered the ruins of an ancient city! OK, you do better."
