Bart Gets an F


Homer remembers that it's Big Gorilla Week on Million Dollar Movie. Bart tries to go study, but Homer yanks him into the living room. Homer and Bart watch ``Gorilla the Conqueror'' together. ``Oh, well, maybe just one more hour.'' The movie ends with the gorilla, in a cage, set adrift at sea. Homer sobs, ``It's so unfair... Just because he's different.'' Bart leaves for his room to study.

Bart enthusiastically cracks open his history book. He tries reading but dozes off.

Homer: Pssst. Marge, come take a look at this.

[Bart has fallen asleep at his desk]

Marge: Oh... the little tiger tries so hard. Why does he keep failing?

Homer: Just a little dim, I guess.

“I have friends in college who are looking for summer work; I’m on an aircraft carrier," said Midshipman 2nd Class Chris Pogue of Chesapeake, Va. "I spent time with a SEAL [Sea, Air, Land] team last year. Not a lot of people get to do these things. I get to watch F-14s {Tomcats} land right next to me. How amazing is that?”

Aboard Kennedy, the 20-year-old was exposed to navigation, conning, chart work and engineering. His running mate, Air Traffic Controller 1st Class Paul Greenough taught the political science major a great deal about air traffic control at sea.

Air Traffic Controller (US Navy)

Air Traffic Controller (abbreviated to AC) is a United States Navy occupational rating.

Air Traffic Controllers provide air traffic control services in air traffic control towers, radar air traffic control facilities, fleet area control and surveillance facilities, and air operations offices ashore and afloat. They also operate radio communication systems and light signals, direct aircraft under Visual Flight Rules (VFR) and Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) conditions, and operate surveillance radar, precision radar, data link approach systems and Identify Friend or Foe (IFF) equipment. Other tasks include operation of ground and shipboard controlled approach systems, response to emergency air traffic situations, maintenance of current flight planning information and reference material, assistance of pilots in preparation and processing flight plans and clearances.

Bart Gets an F


Lisa and Maggie join Bart.

Lisa: Everyone knows you're faking it, Bart.

Bart: Well, everyone better keep their mouth shut.

-- ``Bart Gets an F''

Bart calls Milhouse to get the answers to the exam.

Bart hums through the exam. Ms. Krabappel grades it on the spot. ``This test is worse than Milhouse's exam!'' This is the final straw.

Homer and Marge join Bart in the classroom.

Ms. K: Mr. and Mrs. Simpson, I think you know our district psychiatrist Dr. J. Loren Pryor.

Homer: Hey, Dr. J.

Dr. J: [ahem] I think we have on our hands here a classic case of what laymen refer to as fear of failure. As a result Bart is an underachiever and yet he seems to be... How shall I put this... proud of it?

Homer: Hmmm.

Dr. J: One of his problems may be his short attention span which can lead to blah blah blah blah...

Homer: Uh-huh.

Dr. J: Blah blah blah, blah blah blah...

Homer: Mmmm...

-- Bart is close to failing fourth grade, ``Bart Gets an F''

Unlike the other students in the class, Bart has not shown any improvement over the semester. Indeed, his grades have gotten worse. Bart cracks. ``Okay, okay! Why are we dancing around the obvious? I know it, you know it. I am , okay? Dumb as a post! Think I'm happy about it?'' Dr. Pryor reluctantly recommends that Bart be held back. Bart protest, but Marge suggests it might not be so bad.

I find myself thinking about this time a long time ago. I may have been in the 4th grade at the time, I don't remember. One of us, maybe me, accidentally made up the fold-out sofa bed with the dog still in it. She stayed in there all day. I came home from school and sat down on the sofa wondering where she was. Then I started hearing her faintly crying out, but I couldn't tell where the sound was coming from. This other neighbor kid was sitting on the couch too, we had to have been crushing her. Eventually I realized she was inside the couch and let her out. She jumped out and ran to the water bowl. I can certainly understand how that dog must have felt.
