Goodman: Now, who knows how the Skinners could have resolved this problem? {everyone puts their hands up} Without resorting to violence. {all hands but one descend} Or childish name-calling. {the last hand comes down} Anybody? {nope} OK. That's OK, because making a happy home isn't like flipping on a light switch.

Cletus: Duh, light switch?

Goodman: There are a lot of little tricks to it, things you should have learned a long time ago. Such as, if you leave milk out, it can go sour. Put it in the refrigerator, or, failing that, a cool wet sack. {much later} And put your garbage in a garbage can, people. I can't stress that enough. Don't just throw it out the window.

Marge: This is so humiliating.

Homer: {writing furiously} "Garbage in garbage can"...hmm, makes sense.


It's graduation time from "Family Skills". Everyone is dressed in gowns and mortarboards. They come up two at a time to get their diplomas.

Goodman: I'm very proud of you people. You've learned how to care for your children, you've learned how to maintain your homes, and you've all passed a drug test. Except for Marge -- Marge, you tested positive for Crack and PCP.

Marge: Oh my! {"Fifteen minutes later"}

Goodman: OK, the retest says you're clean. Sorry about the mistake.

Marge: The only thing I'm high on is love...love for my son and daughters. Yes, a little LSD is all I need.

Goodman: All right, sounds very good.

The class cheers and throws their mortarboards into the air. Some class members fire guns.

No mu Hyon (El Presidente) is pushing the social services bit. He's having buildings built for welfare work in areas where services are badly needed, and enrollement is up in most social welfare programs at the universities.

Is there going to be a number you can call when a kid comes in with an adult-size handprint on her face?
