'''Homer:''' ''(sarcastically)'' Great plan, Bart. }}

* This comment from Mr. Burns, after reading Homer's letter:

'''Mr. Burns:''' No, I didn't. Who is it? Frankenstein? The booger man?!

'''Smithers:''' It's the man in the bag, sir; I think he's alive!

'''Smithers:''' Thank you, sir. }}

** Mr. Burns is removing Homer's brain from his head so it can be placed into the robot.

** Also:

{{quote|'''Marge:''' Maybe you could take some consolation in the fact that something you created is making so many people happy.

'''Marge:''' Well, ''duh''. }}

{{quote|''(In church, Homer blindly puts money into a collection plate)''

'''Bart:''' Homer, that was a twenty!

''([[Jump Cut]] to a badly stung hand dropping a huge pile of change into the jar.)'' }}

* A little later, Homer is building the doghouse and smacks his thumb with a hammer.

==== 52 - Homer at the Bat ====

* Barney's [[Cavemen vs. Astronauts Debate|argument]] with Wade Boggs:

'''Barney: LORD PALMERSTON!''' ''(he punches out Moe)'' }}

* The mishaps of each of the professional players, especially the fate of Ozzie Smith.

{{quote|'''Homer:''' Well, he's got all the money in the world, but there's one thing he can't buy.

'''Marge:''' What's that?

'''Homer:''' A dinosaur. }}

* Homer declaring that he's okay to go to Duff Gardens (despite being sick from eating a rotten hoagie) only for him to pass out on the floor and crawl away.

** After seeing Bart and Lisa leave with Selma to the amusement park, Homer finds the rotten hoagie on top of the garbage can.

''(Marge knocks it out of his hands)'' }}

* Everything Surly (one of the Seven Duffs) says.

{{quote|''(An evil cult, bearing a striking resemblance to the Stonecutters, goose-steps in sync with one another, practicing their [[Ominous Latin Chanting]])''

'''Evil Cult:''' ''(whispering, on tiptoes)'' All we own, we oo-wwwe. All we own, we oo-wwwe! }}

'''Bond:''' What's this? "Rules for draw and stud poker"?

'''Blofeld:''' What a pity, Mr. Bond. ''(Jaws and Oddjob grab Bond)''

'''Blofeld:''' I'm not falling for that one again. }}

* The deleted scene:

{{quote|'''Mr. Burns:''' I suggest you leave immediately.

''(They all scream and run back into the house. The robot then explodes, its severed head landing near the gates of Burns Manor.)'' }}

** Arguably the best part of that scene is how the way Mr. Burns says "The ''robotic'' Richard Simmons" indicates that he has other versions of Richard Simmons waiting to be unleashed.

'''Homer:''' Heeeere's Johnny! ''(the camera pulls back to reveal an empty room)'' D'oh!

''(Homer chops through a second door)''

'''Family:''' Aah! }}

* Also this moment in Homer and Marge's bedroom:

==== 125 - 'Round Springfield ====

* This part of Lisa's dream:

'''Other guys:''' We're sorry. }}

* Krusty tries to defend himself on TV:

{{quote|'''Mr. Burns:''' Who the devil are you?}}

* Then later:

'''Homer:''' ''(offscreen)'' D'oh! }}

'''Homer:''' I know. ''(Scene cut to the Nuclear Power Plant)''

'''Mr. Burns:''' You know Smithers, I think I'll donate $1 million to the local orphanage... when pigs fly!

'''Mr. Burns:''' No, I'd still prefer not. }}

* When Lisa has to explain Bart's plight to Homer:

{{quote|'''Lisa:''' ''(rapidly)'' Bart rented a car with a phony driver's license and drove Martin, Milhouse, and Nelson to week out in Knoxville and their car got crushed and they're out of money and they can't come back home and Bart's working as a courier and he just got back from Hong Kong!

'''Homer:''' ''(calm again)'' I have thought this through. I will send Bart the money to fly home, and then I will ''murder'' him. }}

* The phone calls Marge keeps answering before the credits roll.

* The entirety of ''Steamed Hams'':

{{quote|'''Chalmers:''' Good Lord, what is happening in there? ''(the house is on fire)''

'''Skinner:''' No, mother! It's just the northern lights! }}

* The scene where Nelson Muntz gets payback by a very tall man and has to walk before his car, with his pants down, and has to wave and blowkiss at people. Everybody watching laughs at Nelson in the same way ''he'' normally does to them.

'''Lisa:''' And [[The Stoner|it smells like Otto's jacket...]] }}

* Later, backstage at the festival:

''([[Cypress Hill]] begin to perform 'Insane in the Membrane' with the orchestra backing)'' }}

'''Crowd:''' Booo!

'''Kang:''' Very well, no abortions for anyone.

'''Crowd:''' Yaaaaaaay! ''(waves miniature flags)'' }}

** Later, when everybody on Earth is forced into slavery under Kang's control of power.

* The ''Itchy & Scratchy'' writers seemed to have taken Homer's suggestion to not kill Poochie off to heart....or have they?

{{quote|'''Itchy:''' Hi, Poochie. You look like you've got something to say. Do you?

''(The cel with Poochie on it is crudely moved upwards, as it then cuts to a title card reading, "Note: Poochie [[Dropped a Bridge on Him|died on the way back to his home planet]].) }}

* Rex Banner looks over Springfield, determinted to stop the alcohol bootlegging.

{{quote|'''Rex Banner:''' You're out there somewhere Beer Baron. And I'll find you.

'''Homer:''' ''(faint again)'' ... Won't! }}

* Homer runs out of liquor and decides to brew his own.

* Homer bought a gun, and Marge does not like that:

{{quote|'''Marge:''' I don't want any guns in the house Homer, they only cause accidents! Remember when Maggie shot Mr. Burns?

'''Lisa:''' That would've made a lot more sense... }}

** (This is funnier when you know that the alternate ending to "Who Shot Mr. Burns" was that Smithers shot Mr. Burns, rather than Maggie.)

* Homer turns out to be more of a gun nut than the NRA. Double points when he turned on the TV with his gun...and the show that came on had a cowboy fall off a roof after getting shot. Let's put it this way: you can tell you're in trouble when you're told off by a crabby old lady, a mobster, a hillbilly, a cynical bartender, and a TV clown with a seedy underbelly.

{{quote|'''Agnes:''' ''(with her typical motherly sternness)'' I've never seen such recklessness.

'''Krusty:''' Listen, yutz. Guns aren't toys. They're for protecting your family, hunting dangerous or delicious animals, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|keeping the King of England out of your face]]. }}

* Bart discovers the gun hidden in the veggie crisper in the fridge and decides to play William Tell with Milhouse. Milhouse holds the apple ''in his mouth''.

* After the family is kicked out of their own house, Homer decides to ask the police for help:

{{quote|'''Homer:''' Carnies took over our house, you've gotta help us!

'''Homer:''' Thank you so much! }}

* When the family is thinking of a way to get their house back:

'''Ralph:''' At my house, we call them "uh-ohs"! }}

* The fire safety play:

'''Ned:''' ''(rolling around)'' It's not working! It just spreads the flames! }}

{{quote|'''Homer:''' Who are you?

'''Man:''' The spirit of Cesar Chavez.

'''Chavez:''' Because you don't know what Cesar Chavez looks like. }}

** Also, when Homer is trying to convince Sherri to go to a dance with Bart.

{{quote|'''[[Fail O'Suckyname|Melvin Eugene Punymier]]:''' [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner|The geek shall inherit the Earth.]] ''(picks up one [[Jerk Jock]], throws him through another)''}}

* How about ''Jaws Wired Shut'', when Homer saves Marge at the demolition derby?

'''Demolition Derby Announcer:''' A man on a donkey?! Never in my six weeks on the job have I seen the likes of this! }}

* ''Sweets and Sour Marge'', when Homer is smuggling sugar.

'''Bart''': Hey, how about one of those religions where you eat a human heart?

'''Lisa''': No.

'''Lisa''': (''Emphatically'') No! }}

** Also from ''She of Little Faith'' after Lisa leaves the church forever.

* From ''The Great Louse Detective'':

** As the police can't figure out who's trying to kill Homer, they decide to release (Albeit, tagged) someone with... experience in trying to kill one of The Simpsons. ''(The extremely high security cell opens up to reveal... Sideshow Bob, restrained in such a manner he's suspended in the middle of the room.)''

'''Bart & Lisa:''' AHHHH! BOB! }}

** The ''[[Overly Long Gag|absurdly]]'' [[Long List|long list of Homer's enemies]], [[Call Back|most of whom are from previous episodes of the show]].

{{quote|'''Tony Hawk:''' Yo, Blink 182!

''(they stop playing)''

'''Mark Hoppus:''' Nice! }}

** This line which Tony Hawk states in the DVD commentary, he still uses to this day.

** The spoof of the opening sequence, where the now-obese Bart is buying snacks from a vending machine instead of writing on the chalkboard. When the bell rings, it takes forever to reach the entrance. As he skateboards, the ground underneath him cracks, he bends the street sign he usually grabs, makes Marge's car spin out of control, and as he gets home, he lands on Homer's car, making him fly out. Finally, as the other Simpsons sit down on the couch, they look at each other, wondering where Bart is.

{{quote|'''Bart:''' (''groaning, clutching his chest'') My heart! It hurts so much! Like it's caught in a vice!

'''Homer:''' (''sobbing'') Oh, why won't you dance? [[Skyward Scream|DAAAAAAAAAAAANCE!]] }}

{{quote|'''Homer:''' *sobbing at Moe's* No man should have to outlive his fictional wizard!}}

** Best part is Angelica's delivery of the line "I somehow escaped from the hourglass!" And then Lisa reads the real ending and decides Homer's was better.

'''Homer:''' Um, they went to [[Star Wars]] land and...fought Star Wars. }}

** Nobody mentions the opening of the episode?

'''Royce Lumpkin:''' And he's drinking bottled water

'''Lisa:''' Keep it down! I'm reading [[Harry Potter]]

[[Throw It In|Grampa:]] And here comes Grampa [[Non Sequitur Scene|with an otter!]] }}

'''Lisa:''' Bart! ''(grabs Larry)'' if you don't want him, give him to me.

'''Bart:''' How come you never act like this when I'm cruel to real animals?

'''Lisa:''' ''(angrily)'' I'm a FREAKING BUDDHIST!! }}

** Likewise, the main story, filled with [[Cassandra Truth|Cassandra truths]], [[Brick Joke|brick jokes]], [[Ironic Echo|ironic]] ''and'' [[Meaningful Echo|meaningful echoes]], laced with a heaping helping of good, old-fashioned [[Shout-Out|shout-outs]] to make any elderly viewer laugh. One exchange in particular got this troper, who took a cinema history course recently, laughing hysterically. It takes place during Abe's reminiscing of being a shoe-shiner on the platform for the Tinsletown (a.k.a. Hollywood) express. As the train pulls in, out steps the usual parodies of classic actors like Fatty Arbuckle, the Three Stooges, and Paul Muni (who, apparently, always looked like Frankenstein, even in real life), and Abbot and Costello. Abe looks up, realizes that he's shining the shoes of [[Clark Gable]], and this exchange takes place:

{{quote|'''Young Abraham (excitedly)''': Clark Gable!

'''Gable (curiosity raised)''': ''Gone With The Wind'', eh? Let's see... ''(flips through pages)'' Garbage, garbage, my line, garbage, my line, garbage, garbage, my line, epic war plot, fancy dresses, ''Yes!'' I can do this! ''(closes book, hops on train)'' ''(Shouting)'' Thanks, kid! Don't tell this to another soul for about 60 years! }}

* The scene in the episode ''Stealing First Base'' in which after Bart's earlier kissing of a girl lands the school in trouble, the school declares itself an 'Affection Free Environment'. An informational play is carried out with Skinner and Willie acting as Bart and the girl respectively, [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100729185349/simpsons/images/thumb/d/de/Fgefg.jpg/957px-Fgefg.jpg and the two of them, rather uneagerly, kissing each other.] When everyone in the assembly hall starts laughing at this, Superintendent Chalmers steps in and threatens to make them keep kissing until the kids stop laughing. Needless to say it doesn't stop.

** While the ostrich attacked the Simpsons, one of them hit the ostrich with an object, after being beaten with the object from the ostrich, someone besides Homer, or Marge, or even Lisa said "WHY YOU LITTLE..." and strangled the ostrich.

* This conversation, from when Lisa became the manager for Bart's Baseball team:

'''Mike Scoscia''': I did! But [[I Love Nuclear Power|it also gave me super-managerial powers]]! }}

** From the same episode: "I made baseball as much fun as doing your taxes!"
