Quotes 

• Nelson Muntz : Shoplifting is victimless crime. Like punching someone in the dark.

• Bart Simpson : Buy me "Bonestorm" or go to hell!

  Marge Simpson : Bart!

  Homer Simpson : Young man, in this house, we use a little word called "please".

  Bart Simpson : It's the coolest video game ever!

  Marge Simpson : I'm sorry, honey, but those games cost up to and including $70. And they're violent, and they distract you from your schoolwork.

  Bart Simpson : Those are all good points, but the problem is, they don't result in me getting the game.

  Homer Simpson : I know how you feel, Bart. When I was your age, I wanted an electric football game more than anything in the world. And my parents bought it for me, and it was the happiest day of my life.

  [pause] 

  Homer Simpson : Well, good night.

• Homer : Stealing! How could you? Haven't you learned anything from that guy who gives those sermons at church? Captain Whatshisname? We live in a society of laws. Why do you think I took you to all those "Police Academy" movies, for fun? Well, I didn't hear anybody laughing. Did you? Except at that guy who made sound effects.

  [makes some sound effects and laughs to himself] 

  Homer : Where was I? Oh, yeah: stay out of my booze.

  Bart Simpson : Mom, I'm really sorry.

  Marge Simpson : [in an emotionless tone]  I know you are.

  Bart Simpson : Is there anything I can do?

  Marge Simpson : I don't know.

  [pause] 

  Marge Simpson : Why don't you go to bed?

  Bart Simpson : Okay.

• Don Brodka : Hey, kid; one more thing. If you ever set foot in this store again, you'll be spending Christmas in juvenile hall. Capisce?

  [Bart looks confused] 

  Don Brodka : Well, do you understand?

  Bart Simpson : Everything except "capisce".

• Bart Simpson : You guys made a snowman family?

  Homer Simpson : Check it out, boy! It's like looking into a living snow mirror.

  Bart Simpson : Why didn't you wait for me?

  Marge Simpson : I didn't think you'd mind. I figured you were getting a little too old for this. But you can still make one. There's some snow left under the car!

• Gavin's Mom : Gavin, don't you already have this game?

  Gavin : No, Mom, you idiot! I have "Bloodstorm", and "Bone Squad", and "Bloodstorm II", stupid.

  Gavin's Mom : Oh, I'm sorry, honey. We'll take a "Bonestorm".

  Gavin : Get two. I'm not sharing with Katelyn!

  [the employee gets two copies of the same game] 

  Bart Simpson : That must be the happiest kid in the world.

• Gavin's Mom : [after seeing Bart get escorted by the security guard]  That boy's parents made some terrible mistakes!

  Gavin : Shut up, Mom!

• Bart Simpson : [while Bart and Lisa are brushing their teeth]  Man, I thought Mom was going to scream me stupid. She didn't even raise her voice.

  Lisa Simpson : I admit I haven't known Mom as long as you have, but I know when she's really upset. Her heart won't just wipe clean like this bathroom countertop; it absorbs everything that touches it, like this bathroom rug.

  Bart Simpson : [looks at the rug]  Really? You think this might be one of those forever-type things?

  Lisa Simpson : [with her mouth full of toothpaste]  I don't know.

• [the family are heading to the mall for photos, but Bart is wearing a disguise] 

  Marge Simpson : What's the matter with your face? Is that a fake nose? Are you wearing chin putty?

  [Bart is shown to be wearing an aviator cap and sunglasses aside from the putty] 

  Bart Simpson : [abrasive]  I don't have to listen to these wild allegations!

  [His fake nose falls off and is eaten by Santa's Littler Helper. Marge takes off the rest of his disguise] 

  Marge Simpson : Please, Bart; no more pranks. It would mean so much to me if we could have just *one* nice family photo.

  [She gestures to a trio of family photos. The rest of the family looks normal in each of them, but in the first, Bart is cross-eyed and sticking his tongue out; in the second, he's wearing a black square moustache and saluting; in the third, he's holding a speech bubble next to Homer, which reads "I stink!"] 

  Homer : [looking at the last photo]  Hey! I don't remember saying that.
