Quotes 

• Homer Simpson : [Homer is driving the family car]  Okay, once more. Where are we going?

  Mrs. Krabappel : To Capitol City.

  Homer Simpson : And why are you and the old lady in the car?

  [Camera pulls back to reveal Mrs. Krabappel and Mrs. Skinner sitting next to him] 

  Agnes Skinner : We're going to talk Armin Tamzarian into coming back.

  Homer Simpson : And why is Marge here?

  [Camera pulls back again to reveal Marge riding shotgun] 

  Marge Simpson : I came up with the idea.

  Homer Simpson : And why am I here?

  Marge Simpson : Because the streets of Capitol City are no place for three unescorted ladies.

  Homer Simpson : And why are the kids here?

  [Camera pulls back to reveal Bart, Lisa and Maggie in the back seat, sticking their heads out of the window] 

  Marge Simpson : Because we couldn't find Grandpa to sit for them.

  Homer Simpson : Then why is Grandpa here?

  [Camera pulls back to reveal that the kids are sitting in Grandpa's lap] 

  Abe Simpson : Because Jasper didn't want to come by himself!

  [Jasper turns his head around, revealing he is riding in the very rear] 

• Superintendant Chalmers : Now let's clear this up. Who exactly are you?

  Sgt. Seymour Skinner : Sergeant Seymour Skinner, U.S. Army.

  Principal Skinner : It's true. I was in his platoon. But, they said you were killed on that scouting mission.

  Sgt. Seymour Skinner : No, just captured. It's kind of a funny story, really. After five years in a secret P.O.W. camp, I was sold to China for slave labor. And since '77 I've been making sneakers at gunpoint in a sweatshop in Boo-Haun.

  Marge Simpson : That's not a funny story.

  Sgt. Seymour Skinner : Well, I guess you had to be there.
