﻿1
00:00:07,608 --> 00:00:09,441
FOLKSY ANNOUNCER: Well, it's
the first Saturday in September,

2
00:00:09,443 --> 00:00:11,943
and that means one thing
in Springfield.

3
00:00:11,945 --> 00:00:13,979
It's that time again.

4
00:00:13,981 --> 00:00:16,114
Opening day of peewee football.

5
00:00:16,116 --> 00:00:17,449
(over P.A.):
And everybody's headed

6
00:00:17,451 --> 00:00:19,851
down to Child Soldier Field
to catch all the action.

7
00:00:19,853 --> 00:00:21,420
It all comes down to this,

8
00:00:21,422 --> 00:00:22,788
the first game of the year,

9
00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:24,456
perfect season on the line.

10
00:00:24,458 --> 00:00:26,958
And drunks are being rolled
off the field.

11
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,026
Ladies and gentlemen,

12
00:00:28,028 --> 00:00:30,295
your Springfield Neutrinos!

13
00:00:30,297 --> 00:00:32,597
(crowd cheering)

14
00:00:34,868 --> 00:00:36,001
BART:
Huh?

15
00:00:36,003 --> 00:00:37,002
NELSON:
Where'd everybody go?

16
00:00:37,004 --> 00:00:38,003
BART:
I can't see.

17
00:00:38,005 --> 00:00:40,839
(gasps) They over-
fogged the run-in!

18
00:00:40,841 --> 00:00:42,307
They put those
kids in danger

19
00:00:42,309 --> 00:00:43,942
just to psych
up the crowd.

20
00:00:43,944 --> 00:00:45,477
Yeah, are you
psyched up now?

21
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:46,678
Huh? Are you?!

22
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,147
(players panicking,
helmets clonking)

23
00:00:49,149 --> 00:00:51,149
Concussions!

24
00:00:51,151 --> 00:00:53,719
Concessions!

25
00:00:55,356 --> 00:00:56,855
(door dings)
Aah!

26
00:00:56,857 --> 00:00:58,457
(anxious chatter)

27
00:00:58,459 --> 00:01:01,026
My boy hit his head
doing football!

28
00:01:01,028 --> 00:01:02,527
I'm a doctor's wife.

29
00:01:02,529 --> 00:01:04,363
Save my boy first!

30
00:01:04,365 --> 00:01:06,698
My boy needs an MRI!

31
00:01:06,700 --> 00:01:07,699
(clamoring)
Ow!

32
00:01:07,701 --> 00:01:08,700
Ow!
Ow!

33
00:01:08,702 --> 00:01:10,001
Ow! Ow!
Oh!

34
00:01:10,003 --> 00:01:11,002
(theme music playing)

35
00:01:11,004 --> 00:01:12,304
With head injury concerns

36
00:01:12,306 --> 00:01:14,072
on the mind,
the town has shut down

37
00:01:14,074 --> 00:01:15,574
its peewee football program.

38
00:01:15,576 --> 00:01:17,008
Professor, what
danger does this

39
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:19,010
concussion threat
truly pose?

40
00:01:19,012 --> 00:01:20,045
Uh, well, Kent,

41
00:01:20,047 --> 00:01:22,080
these children will
need their brains

42
00:01:22,082 --> 00:01:25,083
unbruised for the demanding,
high-tech jobs

43
00:01:25,085 --> 00:01:26,084
of the future:

44
00:01:26,086 --> 00:01:29,554
polishing and buffing
our robot masters.

45
00:01:29,556 --> 00:01:30,589
Indeed.

46
00:01:30,591 --> 00:01:31,857
And here to
defend youth football,

47
00:01:31,859 --> 00:01:33,925
we have... Nelson's dad.

48
00:01:33,927 --> 00:01:35,093
Are you wearing makeup?

49
00:01:35,095 --> 00:01:37,095
Is it worth the risk
to your son's health

50
00:01:37,097 --> 00:01:39,598
when only .1 percent
of youth football players

51
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:40,899
make it to the pros?

52
00:01:40,901 --> 00:01:42,901
You saying my boy doesn't
have what it takes

53
00:01:42,903 --> 00:01:44,403
to play pro ball? Huh?

54
00:01:44,405 --> 00:01:45,937
Boy, show him your moves.

55
00:01:45,939 --> 00:01:47,072
Juke it, juke it!

56
00:01:47,074 --> 00:01:49,241
(grunting)

57
00:01:49,243 --> 00:01:51,543
Why are you dekeing it
when I said juke it?

58
00:01:51,545 --> 00:01:52,577
Take a lap!

59
00:01:52,579 --> 00:01:53,745
Without football, Kent,
(Nelson groans)

60
00:01:53,747 --> 00:01:55,914
how are kids gonna learn
character like I did,

61
00:01:55,916 --> 00:01:57,416
you stupid fruit-munch?

62
00:01:57,418 --> 00:01:59,885
And what is your problem,
smart-nuts?

63
00:01:59,887 --> 00:02:00,886
(grunts)

64
00:02:00,888 --> 00:02:02,954
Which brings us
to this question:

65
00:02:02,956 --> 00:02:04,089
if not football,

66
00:02:04,091 --> 00:02:06,491
what sport is safe
for our children?

67
00:02:08,595 --> 00:02:11,062
But there are so many
club sports

68
00:02:11,064 --> 00:02:12,964
that can eat up
all our free time.

69
00:02:12,966 --> 00:02:14,099
What about baseball?

70
00:02:14,101 --> 00:02:15,434
(scoffs)
Baseball--

71
00:02:15,436 --> 00:02:16,768
rife with steroids!

72
00:02:16,770 --> 00:02:18,270
Then test for steroids!

73
00:02:18,272 --> 00:02:20,605
Oh and then there'll
be no home runs!

74
00:02:20,607 --> 00:02:23,442
(all arguing)
Um, I think
I-I may have a solution.

75
00:02:23,444 --> 00:02:24,443
Wait, wait, wait, wait.

76
00:02:24,445 --> 00:02:25,811
What about biathlon?

77
00:02:25,813 --> 00:02:28,480
That teaches kids to ski
and kill.

78
00:02:28,482 --> 00:02:29,614
How about Frisbee-golf?

79
00:02:29,616 --> 00:02:31,216
If I could just
have your attention...

80
00:02:31,218 --> 00:02:33,418
Hey, what about
Filipino tooth-fighting?

81
00:02:33,420 --> 00:02:36,421
It builds biting,
jaw strength and mouth work.

82
00:02:36,423 --> 00:02:38,590
The champion for a long time
was a dog.

83
00:02:38,592 --> 00:02:40,759
(groans) No one is
listening to me.

84
00:02:40,761 --> 00:02:42,093
Well, maybe no one
wants to hear

85
00:02:42,095 --> 00:02:43,428
your ridiculous idea.

86
00:02:43,430 --> 00:02:45,664
Let's go, we're late
for prenatal yoga.

87
00:02:45,666 --> 00:02:46,765
Milhouse is ten.

88
00:02:46,767 --> 00:02:49,267
Why are we still doing that?

89
00:02:49,269 --> 00:02:50,602
Poor Kirk.

90
00:02:50,604 --> 00:02:51,937
No one listens to him.

91
00:02:51,939 --> 00:02:54,272
Even Luann treats
him like garbage.

92
00:02:54,274 --> 00:02:56,274
(sighs)
Love's funny like that.

93
00:02:56,276 --> 00:02:57,309
Help him out.

94
00:02:57,311 --> 00:02:59,444
Make people listen
to his idea.

95
00:02:59,446 --> 00:03:00,645
Oh, why me?

96
00:03:00,647 --> 00:03:02,113
I only came to this concert

97
00:03:02,115 --> 00:03:03,949
because I was told
it was a potluck.

98
00:03:03,951 --> 00:03:04,950
(grunts)

99
00:03:04,952 --> 00:03:07,986
(groans)

100
00:03:07,988 --> 00:03:10,288
(arguing continues)

101
00:03:10,290 --> 00:03:12,791
Attention, smothering parents

102
00:03:12,793 --> 00:03:14,926
who only came
to hear themselves talk!

103
00:03:14,928 --> 00:03:16,795
You're an idiot!
(arguing quiets)

104
00:03:16,797 --> 00:03:19,865
This guy has as much
right to bore us

105
00:03:19,867 --> 00:03:21,299
as any of you!

106
00:03:21,301 --> 00:03:22,701
Take it away, buddy.

107
00:03:22,703 --> 00:03:24,936
(echoing):
<i>Buddy, buddy, buddy...</i>

108
00:03:24,938 --> 00:03:26,438
"Buddy." Huh.

109
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,007
Um, I've got an exciting sport

110
00:03:29,009 --> 00:03:31,810
that's great exercise
a-and teaches teamwork.

111
00:03:31,812 --> 00:03:32,811
Lacrosse.

112
00:03:32,813 --> 00:03:34,513
La-what?
What-cross?

113
00:03:34,515 --> 00:03:35,647
What-what?

114
00:03:35,649 --> 00:03:36,648
Lacrosse.

115
00:03:36,650 --> 00:03:38,483
It's the perfect combination of

116
00:03:38,485 --> 00:03:40,952
America's two
least watched sports:

117
00:03:40,954 --> 00:03:42,554
soccer and hockey.

118
00:03:42,556 --> 00:03:44,689
(murmuring excitedly)

119
00:03:44,691 --> 00:03:46,658
Any kid can learn
to play lacrosse.

120
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:47,893
Even this.

121
00:03:48,462 --> 00:03:49,661
(parents gasping)

122
00:03:49,663 --> 00:03:52,364
This isn't a drive-in movie.

123
00:03:53,367 --> 00:03:54,533
(parents gasping)

124
00:03:57,304 --> 00:03:58,570
Everybody,

125
00:03:58,572 --> 00:04:01,339
feel free to whip stuff
at my son's face.

126
00:04:01,341 --> 00:04:03,408
(laughter
and indistinct chatter)

127
00:04:05,512 --> 00:04:06,845
Yarr.

128
00:04:06,847 --> 00:04:07,979
Now hold on there.

129
00:04:07,981 --> 00:04:10,015
Lacrosse has the second highest
concussion rate,

130
00:04:10,017 --> 00:04:11,149
right after football.

131
00:04:12,152 --> 00:04:15,020
(chanting):
Safer than football!

132
00:04:15,022 --> 00:04:17,022
Safer
than football!

133
00:04:17,024 --> 00:04:19,057
Hey, why don't we
have this fruit-munch

134
00:04:19,059 --> 00:04:21,192
teach our kids
this crazy sport?

135
00:04:21,194 --> 00:04:23,094
Me, coach your kids?

136
00:04:23,096 --> 00:04:25,196
Most of you won't even
make eye contact

137
00:04:25,198 --> 00:04:27,432
when I'm weighing your yogurt.

138
00:04:27,434 --> 00:04:29,067
I'll do it.

139
00:04:29,069 --> 00:04:31,269
If Homer will coach with me.

140
00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:32,270
Huh?

141
00:04:32,272 --> 00:04:33,939
We've come too
far together

142
00:04:33,941 --> 00:04:35,574
on this crazy ride.

143
00:04:35,576 --> 00:04:37,409
It wouldn't feel right
to do it without you...

144
00:04:37,411 --> 00:04:38,410
buddy.

145
00:04:38,412 --> 00:04:40,545
(echoing):
<i>Buddy, buddy, buddy...</i>

146
00:04:40,547 --> 00:04:41,813
Mm?

147
00:04:43,884 --> 00:04:45,016
Oh, fine,

148
00:04:45,018 --> 00:04:46,718
I'll coach with this guy.

149
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,119
But I promise you this:

150
00:04:48,121 --> 00:04:50,889
I will never stop
complaining about it.

151
00:04:50,891 --> 00:04:53,224
(cheering)

152
00:04:53,226 --> 00:04:55,427
(grumbling):
Stupid sport I never heard of...

153
00:04:55,429 --> 00:04:58,063
make me wake up early
on a Saturday...

154
00:04:58,065 --> 00:04:59,764
probably have to
slice oranges...

155
00:04:59,766 --> 00:05:00,899
Don't even know the rules

156
00:05:00,901 --> 00:05:02,434
because I refuse to learn 'em...

157
00:05:02,436 --> 00:05:04,603
my kids will probably suck
at it...

158
00:05:04,605 --> 00:05:05,770
And I'll have to kneel down

159
00:05:05,772 --> 00:05:08,607
on photo day,
knees get all wet...

160
00:05:08,609 --> 00:05:10,308
despite my bad attitude,

161
00:05:10,310 --> 00:05:12,744
I'm thrilled by the
nonstop action...

162
00:05:12,746 --> 00:05:14,412
kids running towards me

163
00:05:14,414 --> 00:05:16,815
with a look of joy
I've never seen before...

164
00:05:16,817 --> 00:05:18,383
Dad, we won!

165
00:05:18,385 --> 00:05:19,951
It's okay, kids.

166
00:05:19,953 --> 00:05:22,587
What matters is
you tried your best.

167
00:05:22,589 --> 00:05:24,255
Have an orange slice.

168
00:05:24,257 --> 00:05:25,757
No, we won!

169
00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:28,093
Yes, we're all winners.

170
00:05:28,095 --> 00:05:31,096
Because losing
teaches valuable lessons.

171
00:05:31,098 --> 00:05:32,764
Have an orange slice.

172
00:05:32,766 --> 00:05:33,932
We did it, buddy.

173
00:05:33,934 --> 00:05:36,101
You and I make
a great team.

174
00:05:36,103 --> 00:05:37,435
We won for real!

175
00:05:37,437 --> 00:05:39,337
For the first time in our lives,

176
00:05:39,339 --> 00:05:40,772
we can say "Good game"

177
00:05:40,774 --> 00:05:42,440
and actually mean it.

178
00:05:42,442 --> 00:05:43,675
Good game!

179
00:05:43,677 --> 00:05:45,110
Uh, good game!

180
00:05:45,112 --> 00:05:47,178
Ha! That's loser talk!

181
00:05:52,285 --> 00:05:55,353
(cheering)

182
00:05:55,355 --> 00:05:58,390
(groaning)

183
00:05:59,626 --> 00:06:01,493
Wow, pizza really does

184
00:06:01,495 --> 00:06:03,028
taste sweeter
after you win.

185
00:06:03,030 --> 00:06:05,263
(humming happily)

186
00:06:05,265 --> 00:06:06,264
Dude.

187
00:06:06,266 --> 00:06:08,133
My kids have never
won at anything.

188
00:06:08,135 --> 00:06:09,334
All the girl
does is read

189
00:06:09,336 --> 00:06:10,435
and the boy's
got one of those

190
00:06:10,437 --> 00:06:11,803
paying attention diseases

191
00:06:11,805 --> 00:06:13,438
that isn't really
a disease.

192
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,140
Awesome job, guys!

193
00:06:15,142 --> 00:06:17,442
How do you know so
much about lacrosse?

194
00:06:17,444 --> 00:06:19,978
Wait. You want to know about me?

195
00:06:19,980 --> 00:06:21,980
(disinterested
mumbling)

196
00:06:21,982 --> 00:06:23,982
Well, it all goes back
to my college days,

197
00:06:23,984 --> 00:06:28,887
<i>where I was the star attackman</i>
<i>on our lacrosse team.</i>

198
00:06:28,889 --> 00:06:29,954
(crowd cheering)

199
00:06:29,956 --> 00:06:31,589
(marching band playing)

200
00:06:33,994 --> 00:06:36,327
<i>I'd even been drafted to play</i>
<i>in the pros</i>

201
00:06:36,329 --> 00:06:38,129
<i>for the Milwaukee Zoom.</i>

202
00:06:38,131 --> 00:06:40,699
<i>After scoring the</i>
<i>championship-winning goal,</i>

203
00:06:40,701 --> 00:06:42,500
<i>I was on top of the world, man.</i>

204
00:06:42,502 --> 00:06:44,502
<i>I was high-fiving everybody.</i>

205
00:06:44,504 --> 00:06:46,337
<i>For the first time in my life,</i>

206
00:06:46,339 --> 00:06:49,007
<i>no one, and I mean no one,</i>
<i>was leaving me hanging.</i>

207
00:06:49,009 --> 00:06:50,175
<i>I was slap-happy,</i>

208
00:06:50,177 --> 00:06:52,410
<i>I couldn't stop myself,</i>
<i>until...</i>

209
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,514
<i>I highed one five too far.</i>

210
00:06:56,516 --> 00:06:59,350
(metallic clank)
(wrist shattering)

211

(retching)

213
00:07:04,891 --> 00:07:07,926
<i>My Zoom dream died that day.</i>

214
00:07:07,928 --> 00:07:09,394
Mm...

215
00:07:09,396 --> 00:07:10,462
(grunts angrily)

216
00:07:11,431 --> 00:07:13,732
Uh... Ah...

217
00:07:13,734 --> 00:07:14,733
(metallic clicking)

218
00:07:14,735 --> 00:07:17,535
My wrist healed,
but my wrist in here...

219
00:07:17,537 --> 00:07:18,903
never did.

220
00:07:18,905 --> 00:07:21,773
I've never high-fived
my own son.

221
00:07:21,775 --> 00:07:23,908
The mascot wore
a suit of armor?

222
00:07:23,910 --> 00:07:25,076
Just like a knight!

223
00:07:25,078 --> 00:07:27,679
Yeah, but now lacrosse
has brought us together.

224
00:07:27,681 --> 00:07:29,914
Hey, a toast
to new friendship!

225
00:07:29,916 --> 00:07:32,717
Could I get a roll of
toilet paper, please?

226
00:07:32,719 --> 00:07:35,153
I get nosebleeds
when I drink.

227
00:07:36,123 --> 00:07:38,123
To... new...

228
00:07:38,125 --> 00:07:39,791
friendship.

229
00:07:40,727 --> 00:07:42,427
Mm. Mm-mm. Mm-mm.

Wake up! Wake up!

Oof!

(Maggie coos)

236
00:07:57,410 --> 00:07:59,577
It's 6:00 a.m.
on a Saturday.

237
00:07:59,579 --> 00:08:01,946
We have a weekend
lacrosse tournament!

238
00:08:01,948 --> 00:08:03,481
(horn honking outside)
There's Coach K!

239
00:08:03,483 --> 00:08:04,549
Come on, come on, come on!

240

Come on, Dad!

(grunts, gasps)

245
00:08:14,761 --> 00:08:18,429
Check out the travel van, brah!
(chuckles)

246
00:08:18,431 --> 00:08:20,098
Two days, ten games,

247
00:08:20,100 --> 00:08:23,301
700 miles and
one sweet mixtape.

248

I hope you like
Big Bad Voodoo Daddy,

249

about to swing.

Uh...

254
00:08:36,283 --> 00:08:37,782
I'm pretty sure a mixtape

255
00:08:37,784 --> 00:08:39,184
isn't just the same song

256
00:08:39,186 --> 00:08:40,785
over and over again.

257
00:08:40,787 --> 00:08:43,655
No, no, dude, they're
different live versions.

258
00:08:43,657 --> 00:08:46,624
You can tell because
some are longer.

259
00:08:46,626 --> 00:08:48,827
(music stops)
Hey, you want a hit
off my vape pen?

260
00:08:48,829 --> 00:08:50,361
It tastes like passionfruit

261
00:08:50,363 --> 00:08:52,297
and people think
you're a smoker.

262
00:08:52,299 --> 00:08:53,765
Why would I want that?

263

Don't worry,

Marge isn't here.

265
00:08:56,469 --> 00:08:57,802
Oh, speaking of which,

266
00:08:57,804 --> 00:08:59,804
where is the
craziest place

267
00:08:59,806 --> 00:09:01,539
you two have
ever done it?

268
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:03,842
What?
Let's both say it
at the same time.

269

Don't!
Chipotle!

271
00:09:06,813 --> 00:09:08,546
There are kids back there!

272
00:09:08,548 --> 00:09:10,148
Oh, they can't hear us.

273
00:09:10,150 --> 00:09:13,117
I got 'em watching
classic lacrosse matches.

Textbook ankle-breaker

And Paul Gait
with the dip and dunk!

278
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,860
Everyone be sure to fuel up

279
00:09:21,862 --> 00:09:23,561
with a rice sandwich.

280
00:09:27,534 --> 00:09:29,467
Mmm.
Mmm.

281
00:09:29,469 --> 00:09:31,202
HOMER:
<i>Rice in a sandwich?</i>

282
00:09:31,204 --> 00:09:32,637
<i>That's mush-on-mush.</i>

<i>Doesn't this dweeb know</i>
<i>kids need bologna to win?</i>

284
00:09:35,375 --> 00:09:38,309
Those sandwiches
had so many carbs!

285
00:09:38,311 --> 00:09:39,844
I've never played harder!

286
00:09:39,846 --> 00:09:41,479

Uter, watch those
alligator arms!

289
00:09:45,185 --> 00:09:46,551
Hug the pipe, Sherri!

290

Bart Simpson with
the Canadian egg roll!

293
00:10:02,068 --> 00:10:04,235
We won every game.

294
00:10:04,237 --> 00:10:07,438
Kirk is like a sports genius
who everyone hates.

295
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,107
Worse than Jim Harbaugh?

296
00:10:09,109 --> 00:10:10,942
Well, not that bad.

297
00:10:10,944 --> 00:10:13,444
I know Kirk's
a bit of a dizzy duck,

298
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:16,247
but remember,
you're doing this for the kids.

299
00:10:16,249 --> 00:10:17,548
Right, right. The kids.

300
00:10:17,550 --> 00:10:18,917
Everything for the kids.

301
00:10:18,919 --> 00:10:20,218

Oh, God, he's coming!

302
00:10:20,220 --> 00:10:21,319
Hide, Marge.

303
00:10:23,924 --> 00:10:24,923
Oh, good call, buddy.

304
00:10:24,925 --> 00:10:26,090
Disco nap.

305
00:10:26,092 --> 00:10:27,759
We got to power up
for tonight. (chuckles)

306
00:10:27,761 --> 00:10:28,927
Tonight?

307
00:10:28,929 --> 00:10:31,229
Which gentlemen's club
should we hit first,

308
00:10:31,231 --> 00:10:33,765
Skin City or
the Tassel Castle?

309
00:10:33,767 --> 00:10:34,899
Gentlemen's...

310
00:10:34,901 --> 00:10:36,134
you mean a strip club?

311
00:10:36,136 --> 00:10:38,436
Yeah, Wiggles has
great dancers,

312
00:10:38,438 --> 00:10:40,071
but they're
kind of stuck up,

313
00:10:40,073 --> 00:10:42,774
if you believe
Lap-Aficionado.com.

314
00:10:42,776 --> 00:10:44,442
Which, uh--
(chuckles) I do.

315
00:10:44,444 --> 00:10:46,444
Why would I want to go
to a strip club?

316
00:10:46,446 --> 00:10:48,279
I'm married to a naked lady.

317
00:10:48,281 --> 00:10:51,783
Drive time to Sapphire Diamond
is only 39 minutes.

318
00:10:51,785 --> 00:10:54,085
That's the fastest
it's been all day.

319
00:10:54,087 --> 00:10:55,653
Hey, wa-- 38 minutes!

320
00:10:55,655 --> 00:10:58,089
Listen, Kirk, I'm a lot
of kind of guys--

321
00:10:58,091 --> 00:10:59,590
a booze guy,

322
00:10:59,592 --> 00:11:01,626
a don't-know-my-kids'-
birthdays guy,

323
00:11:01,628 --> 00:11:03,995
a steal-the-blow-dryer-
from-the-motel guy,

324
00:11:03,997 --> 00:11:06,931
but I am not a strip club guy.

325
00:11:06,933 --> 00:11:09,767
You do want to hang with me,
don't you, buddy?

326
00:11:09,769 --> 00:11:10,768
(groans softly)

327
00:11:10,770 --> 00:11:12,170
<i>I can't do it.</i>

328
00:11:12,172 --> 00:11:13,938
<i>I can't pretend to be</i>
<i>this guy's friend</i>

329
00:11:13,940 --> 00:11:15,273
<i>for one more second.</i>

A jock!

332
00:11:20,013 --> 00:11:22,680
I didn't spit on my hand
for the post-game handshake.

Hey, pal,
I don't like Kirk, either,

334
00:11:24,651 --> 00:11:28,286

important pre-game rally.

The truth is your husband
and your father

431
00:15:23,189 --> 00:15:25,323
is a soul-sucking loser
who found out

432
00:15:25,325 --> 00:15:29,060
I was only pretending to be his
friend for the sake of the team.

433
00:15:29,062 --> 00:15:31,762
But, but why did he empty out
our bank account,

434
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:33,698
and all in one-dollar bills?

435

Oh, no.

436
00:15:34,934 --> 00:15:36,934
There's only one thing
a man like Kirk wants

with that many singles.

438
00:15:38,571 --> 00:15:40,705
To hand out to the poor?

439
00:15:40,707 --> 00:15:41,706
Worse.

440

I'll go get him.

I'll also get him.
No, me! Me!

443
00:15:47,614 --> 00:15:48,946
I just need to go home

my special sweat pants.

445
00:15:50,717 --> 00:15:53,918
No, it's my husband's fault
that Kirk has run off

446
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,388
to that jiggle joint
and only he can get him out.

448

00:17:39,659 --> 00:17:41,359
(moans)

492
00:17:41,361 --> 00:17:43,027
Where are they?

493
00:17:43,029 --> 00:17:45,363
Maybe we shouldn't
have sent Homer Simpson

494
00:17:45,365 --> 00:17:46,530
into that den of sin.

495
00:17:46,532 --> 00:17:47,531
(Marge groans, Ms. Hoover gasps)

496
00:17:47,533 --> 00:17:49,400
My husband's a good man.

497
00:17:49,402 --> 00:17:50,801
He can do this.

498
00:17:50,803 --> 00:17:52,002
(chewing sounds)

499
00:17:52,004 --> 00:17:54,672
Oh, worst food I've ever had.

500
00:17:54,674 --> 00:17:56,040
So much...

501
00:17:56,042 --> 00:17:58,042
Is that guy still
in the champagne room?

502
00:17:58,044 --> 00:17:59,844
He hasn't slept in days.

503
00:17:59,846 --> 00:18:02,646
He brought a cooler
of rice sandwiches.

504
00:18:02,648 --> 00:18:04,515
He says they give him energy.

505
00:18:04,517 --> 00:18:08,185
Wait, who do I know
that likes rice sandwiches?

506
00:18:08,187 --> 00:18:12,490
(gasps)
Bart's friend's dad!

507
00:18:12,492 --> 00:18:14,392
So anyway, they
can't call it bourbon

508
00:18:14,394 --> 00:18:16,227
unless it's from Kentucky.

509
00:18:16,229 --> 00:18:19,730
It's the American bourbon...
He's not a loser
paying for lap dances;

510
00:18:19,732 --> 00:18:22,533
he's a loser
paying for listening.

511
00:18:22,535 --> 00:18:24,535
Kirk, we've got to go.

512
00:18:24,537 --> 00:18:26,604
The big game is
about to start.

513
00:18:26,606 --> 00:18:28,572
Come on... buddy?

514
00:18:28,574 --> 00:18:31,041
Oh, now I'm your
buddy again, huh?

515
00:18:31,043 --> 00:18:32,910
Well, guess what, buddy.

516
00:18:32,912 --> 00:18:36,247
Carmeleena and Bodacious
are my true friends.

517
00:18:36,249 --> 00:18:38,949
Nothing, nothing
that we had was real.

518
00:18:38,951 --> 00:18:41,118
Well, it was all fake.

519
00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:44,221
But, damn it, somehow you turned
our fat, lazy, loser kids

520
00:18:44,223 --> 00:18:45,556
into winners.

521
00:18:45,558 --> 00:18:48,125
Kirk Van Houten,
I don't like you.

522
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:50,928
But I respect you.

523
00:18:50,930 --> 00:18:52,096
Respect?

524
00:18:52,098 --> 00:18:53,597
That's the one thing
you can't buy

525
00:18:53,599 --> 00:18:55,433
in a place like this.

526
00:18:55,435 --> 00:18:56,600
(loud peeling)

527
00:18:56,602 --> 00:18:59,470
I've got to get to that game!

528
00:18:59,472 --> 00:19:02,573
Hey, that's a great realization
you had there, pally.

529
00:19:02,575 --> 00:19:04,408
Now if we could just settle
this up, eh?

530
00:19:04,410 --> 00:19:06,444
$15,000?

531
00:19:06,446 --> 00:19:10,748
12 lap-dances an hour, times
three girls, times 56 hours,

532
00:19:10,750 --> 00:19:13,317
pole tax,
glitter recycling fee.

533
00:19:13,319 --> 00:19:14,785
It's quite a ride.

Now, the secret
to the ultimate rice sammy

579
00:21:11,103 --> 00:21:14,905
is to make sure the rice is
really wet, li-like soaking.

So after going in
to find it a third time,

584
00:21:21,547 --> 00:21:24,782
they just decided to leave the

thank you, I just lost it!
