The Simpsons: Lisa the Skeptic

During an archeological dig in Sabertooth Meadow, the students of Springfield Elementary School unearth a strange skeleton of what appears to be a winged human. Everyone in town believes that it's an angel's skeleton, but the ever-logical Lisa doesn't think so. As she tries to find out the skeleton's origins, Homer exploits the miracle by charging people to see it--and things get really scary when the angel skeleton predicts that the end of the world will come.

Couch: The living room is a sauna, with three guys in towels relaxing. The Simpsons (also in towels) arrive, but leave sheepishly as the three men glare at them.



Episode Quotes
Lisa: I can't stand those morons!
Marge: Maybe so, but I'd appreciate it if you didn't call them morons.
Lisa: But they are morons! What kind of grown person could believe in angels?
Marge: Well, your mother for one.
Lisa: You? But you're an intelligent person, Mom.
Marge: There has to be more to life than just what we see, Lisa. If you can't take a leap of faith every once in a while, well, then I feel sorry for you.
Lisa: Don't feel sorry for me mom, I feel sorry for you.

Chief Wiggum: You're under arrest slime bag, what's this punk in here for Lou?
Lou: 235 unpaid parking tickets, totaling $175.
Chief Wiggum: I hope you brought you're check book, wise guy.
Homer: I hope you brought you're check book, wise guy. (gets it out his pocket) You lousy cops. Lucky for you I'm double parked. (gives him check) Now, can I please have my motor boat!?

Homer: (singing) Here's the angel! See the angel! It's my angel! No one else's! Next to the rakes!
Lisa: I don't think you should call this thing an angel. You don't have any proof.
Homer: Now Lisa, if you look closely you'll notice I never once used the word "angel."
Lisa: What about the sign?
(She points at a sign which says "angel" in huge letters.)
Homer: Err... that's a typo.

Lisa: Hey, they can't just build a parking lot on Saber Tooth meadow. That's where they found all them fossils.
Homer: Fossils Schmossils. You can't stop progress because of some musty old bones. Bones Schmones.
Lisa: But they might be paving over rare specimens. Pull over so we can complain Dad. Come on who wants to complain with me? (silence) Fine, I'll come back later. Who wants to come back with me? (silence) Fine.
