When Lisa is unable to figure out a simple brain teaser, Grampa Simpson tells Lisa that she is genetically predisposed to lose her intelligence at a young age, just like Homer, Bart, and Grampa himself. Meanwhile, Apu turns his Kwik-E-Mart into a carnival sideshow after Jasper locks himself in the grocery freezer in order to stay alive in the future.

Episode Quotes |
| |
(Up in the attic, Grampa shows Lisa a picture of Homer after he won his first-grade spelling bee.)
Lisa: Wow. Dad was a good speller?
Grampa: Oh, your dad used to be as smart as a monkey, then his mind started gettin' lazy and now he's as dumb as a chimp.
Lisa: Grampa!
Grampa: Hey, I am too. And your brother's coming along nicely. Look at Bart's homework. Back when he was your age, he was as smart as a chimp.
(Grampa opens up a box labeled "Bart". On top of a stack of homework is a paper of Bart's from the second grade. It has a smiley face on it with the comment, "Great Work!")
Lisa: This is just two years ago!
Grampa: That's right. Then the Simpson genes kick in!
(Grampa leafs through the paper like an animator's flip book and the smiley faces on the corners of the papers gradually turn into frowns and eventually to a skull and crossbones.) | Guy: I'm sorry little girl, we just don't put people on TV, unless of course you're replying to an editorial.
Lisa: Uh...I am! I'm strongly opposed to...proposition, ah, 3...0...5!
Guy: You're against discount bus fares for war widows?
Lisa: Uh, you bet I am! | Television: Man has always loved his buildings, but what happens when the buildings say, "No more."
(Images of buildings collapsing appear on the screen, Bart and Homer cheer)
Homer: I didn't think it was gonna fall over.
Bart: The best part was when the buildings fell down! |
