Bart Gets an Elephant
Original airdate in N.A.: 31-Mar-94
Bart is inexorable: "Uh, Gentlemen, I am not leaving without my elephant." But he and Homer are both tossed out anyway. "Where's my elephant?" Bart demands at the window repeatedly. The DJs close the window, but over the song they play next, Bart's queries can still be heard faintly. At the Springfield Retirement Castle, Abe notes, "Hey, they're playing the elephant song!" Jasper loves that; it reminds him of elephants. Kent Brockman even editorializes, "So isn't that what we're all asking in our own lives -- 'where's my elephant?' I know that's what I've been asking."

Kamp Krusty
The program is interrupted by a special bulletin: ``Krisis at Kamp Krusty''.
Ladies and Gentleman, I've been to Vietnam, Afghanistan, and Iraq; and I can say without hyperbole that this is a million times worse than all of them put together.
-- Kent Brockman, ``Kamp Krusty''
In the background, Krusty is burnt in effigy. Kent is granted an interview with the ring-leader...
Don't be the boy, don't be the boy...
-- Homer watches a news report, ``Kamp Krusty''
It's the boy. Homer immediately loses his hair and regains his gut.
Bart: We want the whole world to know that this was a really crappy camp.

`Clean your house of racism'/Clinton says U.S. at a turning point
GREG McDONALD Staff
TUE 10/17/1995
HOUSTON CHRONICLE
AUSTIN - President Clinton issued an urgent appeal here for racial harmony Monday and warned that a widening "rift" between blacks and whites is "tearing at the heart" of the nation's unity.
"Clean your house of racism,"Clinton admonished both blacks and whites in a sensitive but strongly worded speech at the University of Texas aimed at easing the racial tensions that have developed in the aftermath of the O.J. Simpson murder trial.
Clinton said the nation had reached "a turning point" and must confront squarely the truth about its failure to bridge racial divisions and ensure that all Americans are afforded the same opportunities.
"This moment, in which the racial divide is so clearly out in the open, need not be a setback for us,"Clinton said. "It presents us with a great opportunity - one that we dare not let pass us by."

Bart Gets an Elephant
Original airdate in N.A.: 31-Mar-94
Homer, Lisa, and Bart walk in with a cheery, "Hi Mom!", and tuck into the breakfast Marge has kindly prepared.
Bart: After breakfast, me and Milhouse are going down to the ravine. We got a tip from a six-year-old that there's a dead Martian down there.
Lisa: And I'm going to the park to jam with "The Little White Girls Blues Quartet." Wanna come with me, Daddy-O?
Homer: I'd love to, honey, but Daddy has to go to a beer-drinking contest today.
Bart: Think you'll win?
Homer: Son, when you participate in sporting events, it's not whether you win or lose: it's how drunk you get.
Bart: Gotcha.
-- The wisdom of age, "Bart Gets an Elephant"
"Well, gotta go!" says Bart, getting up to leave. Homer and Lisa do the same. Marge, however, blocks the doorway.
Bart: Uh, it's hard for us to leave when you're standing there, Mom.
Homer: [cheery] Push her down, son.
-- "Bart Gets an Elephant"
"No one's going anywhere!" Marge begins angrily. "We're going to clean the whole house from top to bottom," she says, handing out buckets and mops all around. "Oh dear God, no!" cries Homer, and in a panic, Bart runs to the front door and grasps it frantically, trying to get out. Marge warns him that escape is impossible.
Marge: Now each one of you take a floor and get started.
Homer: I call the basement!
Bart+Lisa: Fine.
Homer: [questioningly] D'oh? [Turns on the light in the basement, sees the huge mess] D'oh!
-- The cleaning spree begins, "Bart Gets an Elephant"
Bart wipes lamely away at the coffee table in the living room.
Bart: [whining] I'm tired. I'm hungry. Can't we just buy a new house?
Marge: Oh, Bart, cleaning doesn't have to be a chore! Here, work to the music. [turns on the radio]
Ernie: You load sixteen tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt...
Bart: Amen, Ernie.
-- Apt cleaning-music, "Bart Gets an Elephant"
In the basement, Homer wears a back-pack with an air compressor in it. He pulls the chain to start it, and blows all the papers on the floor into a swirling vortex. Paper is strewn everywhere when he shuts it down and dusts his hands.
Homer: All done.
Marge: You're not done. I want you to throw away these old calendars and TV Guides.
Homer: Are you mad, woman? You never know when an old calendar might come in handy. Sure, it's not 1985 now, but who knows what tomorrow will bring? And these TV Guides: [fondly] so many memories.
