The Simpsons (animation)/Recap/S04/E11 Homer's Triple Bypass

Homer's eating habits catch up with him when he has a heart attack at work.

""Perhaps I'm being too hasty, you are highly skilled...at goofing off! Now don't worry Homer, you're the kind of guy I could really dig...a grave for!""
 * Bait and Switch Comment: Mr. Burns uses this to lure Homer into a false sense of security.


 * Beat Still My Heart: We get an inside look on Homer's heart reacting to Mr. Burns yelling at him.
 * Hollywood Heart Attack: Happens when Mr. Burns berates Homer for the latter's work ethic.
 * Shout-Out:
 * The opening sequence of the episode parodies |Cops. Interestingly, it wasn't in the original animatic, and was added to increase the episode's length.
 * The scene where Homer sings in a church as a boy is based on Empire of the Sun.
