Bart's First Job
Topic: The Simpsons
Act 1: Living Room - EVENING
The Simpsons (except for Homer) are watching TV, while discussing their plans for the future.
Marge: Bart, every day after school, you're so lazy. You need to get a job.
Bart: But I'm only 10! I can't get a job yet!
Lisa: You can get odd jobs, such as mowing people's lawns, or babysitting.
Marge: As long as it makes money, it's a job
LOUD CRASH
Homer screams "D'oh!" from a distance
Bart: What the heck was that!?
Maggie sucks her pacifier.
The camera switches to the kitchen, where Homer crashes his car into the house.
Marge and Lisa walk to the kitchen.
Act 2: Kitchen - Evening
Lisa: Dad, what happened? Why did you crash into the house?
Homer: I fell asleep while driving, and the wheel just turned it self, and I crashed (falls asleep)
Homer drops a bottle of beer.
Marge: Homie! I can't believe you were drinking and driving! Do you know how dangerous that is?!
Homer: (snoring)
Marge: He fell asleep. It's gonna be very expensive to fix the wall.
Lisa: I'll go get my piggy bank. There's more than enough in there to fix it.
Lisa leaves the kitchen
Homer: (having Vietnam flashbacks) AAAAA! (imitates sniper rifle) Saigon is falling!
Marge: You didn't even fight in the war! How can you be having flashbacks about it?
Homer: (wakes up) Oh hey Marge, how's it going?
Marge: You crashed your car into our house!
Lisa walks back into the kitchen.
Lisa: I was wrong. I don't have enough to fix the wall.
Marge: In that case, I'll make Bart earn some money.
Marge walks back to the living room, where Bart is sitting.
Act 3: Living Room - Evening
Marge: Bart, we need to talk
Marge takes the TV remote, and turns off the TV, while Bart is watching.
Bart: I was watching that!
Marge: We need to talk.
Bart: Ugh, fine (rolls his eyes)
Marge: You need to make your own money because we have to fix the wall that your father destroyed. You'll start tomorrow morning by mowing people's lawns. I'll post an ad for you on Facebook!
Bart: It's 2024, not 2010, mom. No one uses Facebook except for Grandmas and Soccer moms.
Marge: Doesn't matter, I'm still using it.
Bart: I'll mow people's lawns for 1 month. That's it.
Marge: You need to do it every day after school for 3 hours until school ends, young man!
Bart: Fine. But don't say I didn't warn you.
Homer walks into the room.
Homer: (while drunk)Hey Marge! (looks at Bart)Hey, whatever your name is. Benjamin? No. Brickhead? No. Dang It I forgot your name. D'oh!
Bart: My name is Bart! Homer!
Homer: That's right! Fart!
Bart: (screams really loudly)
A montage then plays, showing Bart mowing people's lawns and him getting paid. It plays while"Livin' On A Prayer" by Bon Jovi is playing as background music.
TEXT ON SCREEN: 6 months later
Act 4: Dinner Table - Night
The Simpsons are together, at the Dinner Table.
Marge: You did it Bart! You made over $30,000 by mowing lawns in just 6 months, and we finally fixed the wall your father crashed into!
Camera shows the wall Homer drove into, with glue marks, and lots of bandages on it.
Maggie and Lisa: (applauds Bart)
Lisa: Bart was also able to pay me back for that time when he stole $100 from my piggybank!
Homer: I'm the proudest dad ever! (pats Bart on the shoulder)
Marge: And I'm the proudest mom ever! (pats Bart on the shoulder)
Maggie: (walks over to Bart, and gives him a pacifier)
Maggie and Bart: (sucking pacifier)
Ralph Wiggum comes flying through the window, breaking the glass, hits the wall, and falls on the ground.
Homer: (yelling) That window was expensive!
Ralph: I just did something dangerous!
Lisa: Ralph, can you please leave?
Ralph: Okie dokie
Ralph jumps out through the whole in window
Homer: Great, now we gotta get the window replaced!
Homer throws a rock that he got out of thin air, and throws it. It hits the wall, and leaves a giant hole.
Homer: D'oh!
Marge: Not again!
Lisa: Dad, why the heck do you keep ruining the house?
Homer: (in confusion) I don't know….
Marge: What do you mean you don't know?! You're the one doing it!
Mr. Burns crashes his helicopter into the ceiling, leaving a huge hole in the roof.
Homer: (sarcastically) This day keeps on getting better!
Marge: This house is literally falling apart!
Mr. Burns comes out of his helicopter, with Smithers strapped to his back.
The screen fades to black
Act 5: Living Room - Night
Homer and Marge are speaking to Mr. Burns, while Bart, Lisa, and Maggie are sleeping.
Marge: What is so important that you had to crash into the roof!?
Mr. Burns: I heard that your son is mowing lawns, and making a fortune.
Marge: Well, yes, but that's none of your business.
Mr. Burns: Damn, I guess you're right.
A police helicopter then crashes on top of the house
Marge: (screaming) WHAT IS WITH ALL THIS DESTRUCTION!?
Chief Wiggum walks into the living room, holding a gun
Wiggum: Mr. Burns, you have the right to remain silent! You're under arrest for property damage!
Mr. Burns: I didn't do that! Smithers, fly me away!
Smithers: Yes, sir.
Smithers and Mr. Burns fly away, in an invisible jetpack.
Marge: Officer, Go get him!
Wiggum: Alright!
Chief Wiggum pulls out his jetpack, and attempts to fly to Mr. Burns. His jetpack explodes, and his body lands on Flanders's roof.
Homer: Woo-hoo! Take that Flanders!
Out of nowhere, the entire town of Springfield blows up, and everyone dies.
Teacher: And that, dear children, is the reason why kids can't get jobs. Because chaos will happen.
The camera zooms out, and shows a teacher explaining to his class "The End of Springfield". It turns out that Bart getting a job was a history lesson, part of "The End of Springfield". The children all boo at him, and throw rocks at him.
Teacher: (sighs) What did I do to deserve this treatment?
THE END
