Line 22:
* "Hurricane Neddy" saw Ned's character and faith in God tested when his house is destroyed in a hurricane. The townspeople rally behind the Flanders family and rebuild his house, but their workmanship -- in the understatement of the year -- leaves something to be desired. When the poorly constructed house falls apart, Ned's inner frustration finally reaches its boiling point, going on a tirade and calling everyone out on what he perceives as their shortcomings. Everyone responds with disgust and/or are upset ... until we get to Homer, whom Ned calls "the worst person I have ever met!"<br />'''You'd Expect:''' Homer to be deeply saddened that his friend told him such a thing, or maybe start a violent-tempered argument, especially given that Homer sees many flaws in Ned and has openly discussed his disdain for him in the past.<br />'''Instead:''' (relieved) "Gee, I got off easy!"
* “The Joy of Sect” Homer is placed in the ‘Circle of Judgment’, being subjected to degrading comments in the effort to destroy his self-esteem in order for him to be brainwashed. <br /> '''You’d Expect''': Homer being a [[Jerkass]] would be protective of his image and violent about it. It almost happens when Moe tells Homer about his body odor. <br /> '''Instead''': Homer knowledge the comments, calling them a ‘smart group’. He even smells his own armpit to confirm Moe’s complaint. <br /> '''[[Truth in Television]]''': Considering Homer’s low intelligence, he’s less likely to be brainwash due to the difficulty until…

Homer shows Marge that he’s been making extra money as a result of this. Lisa has a [[Screw the Money, I Have Rules]] route all over it. <br />'''You’d expect''': Marge to agree with Lisa, which would mean handing Homer and Bart over to the newly powerful police force despite knowing the end result. <br /> '''Instead''': Marge is pleased with the men on the idea and the ingenuity to pull it off since she thought it was clever to revolt against a ridiculous law over what people can drink. Lisa protests the decision, only to order to her room by everyone including Bart.
