Couch: The Simpsons rush in - but they've shrunk.

Trivia:

• The Osaka flu speaks with the voice of Snake.
• Quimby's motto is Corruptus in Extremis.

Homage: Flanders laughs sinfully at an episode of US sitcom Married With Children.

Hi, I'm Troy McClure, you may remember me from: such films as P Is For Psycho and The President's Neck Is Missing.

Itchy and Scratchy in: Germs of Endearment.

Mmmmm: ...pie.

Notes: 'Can you imagine a world without lawyers?' We like Bart's plan to rescue Marge from prison by becoming the glamorous Bartina, and Lionel Hutz is supremely inept - 'I move for a bad court thingy,' he tells the judge.
