Marge:
You lost five percent of your brain.
Homer:
Me lose brain? Uh-oh! (Everybody laughs) Why I laugh?
Lisa:
Like Halloween and Christmas, April Fool's Day traces it origins to Pagan ritual.
Homer:
God bless those Pagans.
Homer:
...and that's the story of April Fool's Day.
Lisa:
Dad, I was telling the story!
Grampa:
Coma? Pfft. Why I go in and out of comas all the... (snoozes briefly) French Toast please.
Bart:
(spying on Homer) I've got to fool him before the day is out. But how? He must have a weakness.
Homer:
Ah, beer. My one weakness. My Achilles' heel, if you will.
Bart:
Beer! Beer is the cheese. But how to use it...
Homer:
(drops his can) Whoo! It's a good thing that beer wasn't shaken up anymore, or I'd have looked quite the fool. An April Fool, as it were.
Lou:
That sounded like an explosion at the old Simpson place.
Wiggum:
Forget it, that's two blocks away!
Lou:
Looks like there's beer coming out of the chimney!
Wiggum:
I am proceeding on foot. Call in a Code 8.
Lou:
We need pretzels, repeat, pretzels.
TV:
The following is a public service announcement. Excess of alcohol consumption can cause liver damage and cancer of the rectum.
Homer:
Mmm... beer.
Hibbert:
You're a veterinarian?
Vet:
That's right. And for an extra twenty dollars, I'll give Homer a tick bath and then spay him.
Bart:
(pulls out money) Here you go, doc.
Marge:
Bart!
Bart:
Shop around; You can't beat that price.
Homer:
What if I wind up as some vegetable, watching TV on the couch? My important work will never be completed.
Lisa:
Is a coma painful?
Grampa:
Oh heck, no. You relive long lost summers, kiss girls from high school... it's like one of those TV shows where they show a bunch of clips from old episodes.
