Mine’s gotta be Marge on the Lam. It’s got Ballet as bears driving little cars, it’s got Homer about to have his arms sawed off cause he didn’t let go of soda, it’s got good waffles sticking together, it’s got moonshine straight from your own still, it’s got ghost cars, it’s got Miguel Sanchez, it’s got Sunshine and Lollypops and Raibows, it’s got precious antique cans, it’s got suspects in a…red car who are passing directly beneath the earth’s sun…now. it’s hilarious and really encapsulates season 5s ‘fuck it, we ball’ attitude.

    Homer the Smithers has one of my favorite underrated jokes:

    Burns: Here, tell me how my stocks did yesterday.

    Homer: Uh… they all won.

    Burns: What about my options?

    Homer: Well, you can either get up or go back to sleep.

      Burns’ genuine consideration before saying 'I think I’ll get up" is absolutely perfect delivery. Homer and Burns on sorta friendly terms is always magic. On that note Mointain of Madness is similarly great. Burns and Homer as allies is a fantastic pairing that it’s kinda odd they never caught on to it that much.
