Only one recording today, after a few frankly overstuffed days, and it starts with a Hello to Jason Isaacs, being interviewed by Richard and Judy.
Then, it’s The Simpsons – Raging Abe Simpson.
Grandpa and Mr Burns are the last remaining members of the Fighting Hellfish.
The last of them alive will be able to find a treasure, so naturally, Mr Burns wants Grandpa dead, and he calls an assassin.
The first attempt involves putting poison into his dentures glass and setting his alarm to go off. But Grandpa throws the glass across the room and puts the aram clock in his mouth.
They disguise themselves as Homer and Marge.
Next he just comes in all guns blazing. Lucky the home has an armed response from the nurse.
Grandpa goes to Homer’s, and tells Bart all about his experience in the war leading the Fighting Hellfish, along with Mr Burns, and the fathers of Chief Wiggum, Principal Skinner and Barney.
They find a number of valuable paintings, and agree to store them safely until there’s only one of them left.
Bart doesn’t believe him, until Mr Burns cuts a hole in the side of the house and demands Grandpa’s key. Grandpa gives it to him.
But Bart steals the keys from Burns. “Now we can get the treasure.”
The treasure’s at the bottom of a lake, so Bart has to dive for it.
Burns follows them and steal the pictures. Then pushes Bart overboard.
Grandpa has to rescue him.
Then they go after Burns.
But the State Dept arrive, looking for the stolen paintings, which they return to their rightful owner. “I must get back to Dan Centrum in Stuttgart in time to see Kraftwerk.”
“Well, at least I got to show you I wasn’t always a pathetic old kook.” “You never were, Grandpa.” “Oh, I’d hug you, but I know you’d just get embarrassed.” “I won’t get embarrassed. I don’t care who knows I love my grandpa.” “Hey, fun boys, get a room.”
Media Centre Description: Grampa and Mr Burns, the last surviving members of a World War II army unit, vie for a priceless collection of rare art hidden in a secret location.
