"#The Simpsons #" "D'oh!" "Hey, kids." "Look who's making breakfast." "Itchy and Scratchy?" "That's right, kids!" "Never start the day on an empty stomach." " It's delicious." "Want to try?" " Yea!"

" Here I am." "But thanks to Stabby-Oh's, most of me is still in bed." "That ad campaign may have crossed a line." "Ah, what can you do?" "Sex sells." "Homer, you're still here?" "You should have left for work an hour ago." "They said if I come in late again, I'm fired." "I can't take that chance." "And, kids, you're gonna miss the school bus." "It's only two blocks away!" " But I gotta spit." " You can spit on the bus." " Uh, Mom." " Not now, Lisa." "Chew, chew, chew!" "Swallow, swallow, swallow!" "Mmm!" "Aw, darn." "Looks like we'll have to stay home today." "Not on my watch!" "Stop!" "Stop!" "Oh, you want to drag?" "Yeah!" "I'm not racing!" "It's me, Marge Simpson." "No." "You eat my dust!" "Hoo-hoo!" "Whoa!" "It's like Speed 2... only with a bus instead of a boat." "I did it!" "I caught the school bus!" " Now hurry up and get on." " But, Mom, the school's right here." "I won." "Don't take that away from me." "Okay." "Everybody off." "Oops." "Almost forgot." "Picking up a new kid today." "Wow." "A new kid." "I wonder what they're like." "Help me!" "Help me!" "Aw, man."

"One Hour Dry Cleaner?" "Man, that's fast." " Kids gone?" " Yep." "It's great to have some time just to ourselves, huh?" "You read my mind." "So... this coffee's good, huh?" "Yeah." "The, uh" "The milk really takes the edge off." "You know, I think our marriage is" "I got it!" " No, I got it." " No, I do." "Your baby is dead."

"Sorry about that." "But the truth is... your baby, Maggie Simpson, is dead!" "Dead tired of baby-proofers who don't provide a free estimate." "Let's start in the kitchen." "Now, pretend I'm a baby." "Me like to explore." "That's a pretty big caboose for a baby." "Homer, don't be-Wow, that is huge." "Ooh!" "Pretty colors." "Me want a drink." "Oh!" "She got it open." "You see how quickly your baby could have been drinking this "Similac Baby Formula"?" "No!" "Oh." "This is such an eye-opener." "I always pictured the kids dying in the living room." "Okay." "With the window bars, toilet latches... dingo alarm and grapefruit squirt shield, your total cost would be" " Wow!" "I'm rich!" " Three dollars?" " That doesn't seem so bad." " That's the price of the clipboard." " Here's your estimate." " Mm-hmm." "Hmm." "We don't need your high-price safety junk." "Thank you." "Look at the new kid hogging the teeter-totter." "It's like she owns the place." "Yeah!" "She thinks she's" " Pig in the City." "Give her a break." "Remember your first day at school?" "Not as long as I keep taking these." "Well, someone's gotta make her feel welcome." "Hi there." "My name's Lisa." "What's yours?" "Now don't feel bad, honey." "Did you know back in grade school, I had a bully problem myself?" "# Everybody was kung fu fighting #" "#Those cats were fast as lightning ##" "Good times." "Why don't you try reaching out to this new girl?" " See if you two have a common interest." " Hmm." "Well, lots of people like jazz fusion." "Okay." "That's in the maybe file." "What if you two bond over your Malibu Stacy dolls?" "What if you two bond over your Malibu Stacy dolls?" "They're not dolls." "They're aspiration figures." "But it might work." "That baby-proofing crook wanted to sell us... safety covers for the electrical outlets." "But I'll just draw bunny faces on them to scare Maggie away." " She's not afraid of bunnies." " She will be." "Uh, Francine?" "I think we got off to a bad start." "So" " Hey!" "You like Malibu Stacy too." "Oh, yeah." "And you like the same one I like... with the grad student glamour pack... just like the one in my..." "Iocker." "That's mine, isn't it?" "Tastes like yours." "How aboutjazz?" "Do you likejazz?" "I like jazz." "Milhouse?" "She got you too?" "Yeah, but it's not so bad." "I'm standing on Ralph." "We're a totem pole." "There and there." "See, honey?" "Daddy's protecting you from all the sharp, scary things." "Here." "Hold this a sec." "Ow!" "Oh, my" "Ow!" "Okay, Maggie." "Put it down." "Ow!" "Okay now." "Put- it- down." "Oh!" "Okay." "That's quite enough." "It's not funny anymore." "D'oh!" "D'oh!" "No, no, no!" "Oh, Homie." "Ow." "Ooh." "Ow." "Now do you realize how unsafe the American home is?" "Baby accidents occur every three minutes." "I'm the one who told you that." "Yeah, but this is me talking." "Look." "I already encased the telephone in concrete." "How are you supposed to dial?" "Reach into these holes." "I use a carrot." "Isn't that a little excessive?" "I mean, how are the buttons dangerous?" " Baby could order poison." " Oh, that's ridiculous." "Poison Delivery Service." "A gift basket of poisons is on its way." "Oh, I'm a horrible mother." "Of course you are." "Marge, I finally discovered the reason God made me- to protect his tiniest, most breakable creatures." "And I've got to share that gift with the world." "Ow!" "Get her out of here." "Why you throwing tomatoes at yourself, huh?" "Why you throwing tomatoes at yourself?" "Your very question is faulty." "You're faulty!" "Knock, knock." "What do you want?" "Would you bullies be interested in some bodyguard work?" "Oh, this is so funny." "We were just talking about moving into protection." "We're offering a recess and lunch package that's very affordable." "Well, I'm gonna need full coverage." "My bully is highly aggressive." " Check out these Indian burns." " Good technique." " Check it out." " Ho-ho!" "Triple twist!" "Nice work!" " You sure this was done by hand?" " Yeah." "She's a real purist." ""She"?" "Sorry." "We don't do girls." " They bite and kick and scratch." " And sometimes we fall in love." "Wow." "There's so much I don't understand about bullying." "Yeah." "There's a lot of history there." "Did you know it predates agriculture?" " Mm-mmm." " Let's walk." "Finish the job." "I just don't understand Francine's motivation." "Why does she only go after the smart ones?" "That's like asking the square root of a million." "No one will ever know." "Someone will." "I'm gonna crack the bully code." "# Oh, de, doo, doo Saving those babies #" "#And the soft spots on their head Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo ##" "A pointy deity."

'Tis a mighty puddle of puke." " I'm sorry." " Oh, that's all right, lad." "It reminds me why I got into this business." "Willie, I need to see the school security tapes." "Security tapes?" "There's no security tapes." "It's hard to miss the cameras." "Aye." "Willie's a stinkin' liar." "Why does the school need to watch us all the time?" " School?" " Oh, here's the tape I need." "Oh, my God." "That roll of towels is nearing the end!" "Ach!" "It's on double red stripe!" "How did she know I was there?" "Hey." "That time she looked right at me and didn't touch me." "Hmm." "Of course." "The nose clip." "Hey, Willie." "I think I'm onto something." "Check this out." "Not talking, eh, Willie?" "Just listen then."

"And so, as, uh, heavyweight champion... recognized by nine of the 14 sanctioning bodies..." "I sincerely urge you all to stay in school." "Uh, thank you." "Thank you, Drederick Tatum." "That was truly a K.O." ""Knockout Oration."" " Need a ride home?" " You really don't want that." "Trust me." "Mr. Tatum, do you mind if I swab you with this damp rag?" "No." "Not at all." "Swab away." "Whoa, whoa." "Nobody mentioned a beaker." "Please?" "It's for science." "Oh, for science." "In that case, proceed." " Lisa, this is outrageous." "Explain yourself." " Shh!" "It's working." "Look." " Nelson, what are you doing?" " I don't know." "I can't help myself." "Hey." "Cut it out." "I insist that you desist." "Sorry." "I'm so sorry." "Yes!"

"Scientists, please." "Looking for some order." "Some order, please... with the eyes forward and the hands neatly folded... and the paying of attention." "Pi is exactly three!" "Very sorry that it had to come to that, but... now that I have your attention... we have some exciting new research from young Lisa Simpson." "Let's bring her out and pay attention." " She's just a little girl." " In the larval stage." " Silly." "Let's not listen." "My study is entitled " Airborne Pheromones and Aggression in Bullies."" " Bullies?" " I'm afraid." "For as long as there have been smart people... there have been bullies to prey on them." "From Galileo... to Sir Isaac Newton... and even in the animal kingdom." "But why do the brawny prey on the brainy?" " Is it jealousy?" " Yes." "Yes." "No." "The reason is chemical." "Not possible." " That's impossible." "Chemicals are our friend." " She's a witch." "Please, Dr. Koop." "Let me demonstrate." "This is my test subject, Francine." "I'd like to thank her parents... for helping with the caging." "Let me out of here!" "I have isolated the chemical which is emitted by every geek, dork and four-eyes." "I call it "Poindextrose."" "Whoo-hoo!" "Simpsons rule!" "Sorry." "You're dead, nerd!" "The bully has caught my scent, and she's at maximum rage." "Professor Frink." "Very well, Lisa." "I'll just finagle this- glayvin." "Are you mad, Frink?" "Put down that science pole!" " Huh?" " My God, she stopped in her tracks." "The little girl's invented some sort of bully repellent." " Silly." " Let's not listen." "Actually, it's just ordinary salad dressing." "So that's where that went." "The pungent vinegar and tangy Roquefort... block the smell receptors, rendering the bully harmless." "Congratulations, Lisa." "You are truly the standout of this year's Big Science Thing." "A gift certificate from JCPenney?" "Yes." "You'll love their slacks." "Oh, honey, we're so proud of you." "So all her bullying was just to get some attention." "No, Dad." "Didn't you listen to anything I said?" "Just to get some attention." "Lisa, help!" "Yes!" "Yes!"
