the first short is titled the information rage it all starts with Springfield's mayor giving a speech in which he announces that thanks to Lisa Simpson's tireless efforts the city will be removing incandescent bulbs from all households and replacing them with free LED lights this news causes a huge stir among the citizens Rich Texas noticeably excited comments that with all the energy savings he'll be able to spend more on ammunition for his guns use the money I save to pay for these louder bullets meanwhile Melvin stands up and claps pleased that the city is finally adopting
a progressive idea however upon hearing the word Progressive Rich immediately changes his mind declaring with disdain that he now hates the proposal and hopes the incandescent bulbs will return to his home soon for Agnes Skinner the initiative is not a good idea either she warns Lisa that they can only take her incandescent bulbs when she's gone from this world in contrast Lenny is thrilled about the proposal though the divided opinions quickly polarize the community so the city splits into two factions those who support the progressive idea and those who prefer to hold on to their
incandescent bulbs until the very end back at home Marge feels the immense hostility that's begun to deep through Springfield's atmosphere and wonders where all this negativity is coming from Lisa on the other hand responds that it's even more important to ask where all that anger is going as deep in the lake a crack begins to open up the issue of the bulb Wars doesn't go unnoticed by the media who stir up tensions between the two sides increasing the barriers between Springfield citizens news outlets even begin questioning whether after this controversy ideas as radical as putting
decorations on cars or emphasizing certain privileges within the community will emerge amidst all these discussions and conflicts a gigantic red monster rises from the crack in the ocean and moves toward the city destroying anything related to Progressive ideas with clear support from more conservative sectors upon seeing the massive monster Bart and Lisa are both stunned Bart excited can't contain his enthusiasm for the creature's appearance which leads Lisa to ask if he's now supporting the right Bart answers that in reality he supports anything that goes against Lisa her stupid saxophone and her ideas and that if
destruction makes others happy then he's all for it Lisa resigned interprets his answer as a yes finally she addresses all the citizens asking if they don't realize that the monster is just a manifestation of all the hate fear and resentment they've been building up just at that moment another colossal creature rises from the depths of the lake this time in support of the progressive left created and fed by the hate of this side of the city when everyone thinks the monster is about to destroy a weapons Factory it actually uses its telepathic powers to send
a message to the entire city urging everyone to worry about the situation with the senator from Nevada and to donate if they support his causes meanwhile the two huge monsters are tearing through everything in their path but Progressive ideas remain untouched even amid all the destruction we see the two Caillou facing off against each other one spits fire while the other responds with well- reasoned and logically sound arguments in the middle of all this chaos Professor Frank announces that he's come up with the brightest idea of all he explains that he's created a robotic monster
capable of battling both political ideologies however the robot will only work if the unconditional love of two two siblings can come together in Perfect Harmony that's when a mechanical engineer and a brother a Navy Soldier step forward and consider taking on the honor of piloting the robot which they believe could save them but then the s from Springfield falls on them and now they can only rely on the help of Lisa and Barb he'd be honored to well I guess those two little twerps over there will have to do the two siblings climb into the
massive structure and Barb visibly excited puts on his special suit they brush their teeth with care and finally take off to control the robot however it quickly turns into a disaster neither of them is coordinated and by accident they end up stepping on Otto who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as the two enormous beasts keep fighting Lisa watches them and reflects on how dozens of ideals have divided and turned the world into this absolute chaos she's shocked to see that there are only two ideological monsters but just then more
of them appear a Caillou hippie a Facebook Beast a Reddit robot and a Rogan [Music] in the midst of the confusion they both notice that Homer is trapped in a parking lot where he's in serious danger one of the monsters drops a giant donnut on him while the other kicks it making Homer spin around and in an unexpected Act of remorse apologize for all his sins Homer's kids are enjoying the scene and their laughter makes him believe that after all maybe they can work together to defeat the monsters terrorizing the city with renewed determination both
siblings raced toward the first two beasts and after a chical exchange of attacks including tickling and a giant wreck ball they managed to take them down causing the rest of the creatures to flee in panic addressing the entire community of Springfield Barb concludes that although they've managed to stop the Beast for now they'll come back even stronger if fear and resentment continue to fuel the city Lisa adds that the only way to defeat these monsters is for everyone to remember why they form a community and reject the Absurd ideas that are spreading on social media
however it all ends with Barb and Lisa standing in the middle of a city devastated by the monsters Claws and they both agree as they look at the destruction around them that maybe just maybe the internet was a mistake after all the second short titled the fall of Monty's house takes us to an old version of Springfield where a crow named Barb watches from above the factory tirelessly housing workers who are fulfilling their tough duties suddenly Smithers grabs everyone's attention announcing that the corn syrup production has ended but now they must continue building Mr Burns's
Grand Mansion Lenny asked his co-workers if they think this endless construction will ever finish since his father and grandfather also died working in the same place Homer however trying to find something positive in the situation reminds them that they'll be celebrating Thanksgiving dinner that very night Mr Burns in his Mansion greets everyone warmly wishing them a wonderful Thanksgiving and welcoming them into his home where he shows them a beautifully set table for dinner despite most hunger Burns reminds them all of the importance of respecting the traditions of the day it's then that he proposes a
deal a challenge with a turkey bone if they win they'll be able to eat to their heart's content but if he wins they'll all face worse working conditions and even greater exploitation this is a tough bargain yet the workers don't hesitate for a second to accept it as the deal of a lifetime with a Sly smile Mr Burns asks the best of his men to step forward though it's clear the old old man has cheated by already cracking part of the bone without hesitation Willie volunteers as the Challenger making it clear that he's an expert
in this field in the blink of an eye Willie lifts Burns off the ground and easily snaps the turkey bone claiming the largest part for himself 1 two three next the men rushed to sit at the table eager to eat however Burns true to his Nature has no intention of keeping his promise in a cruel gesture he throws throws all the food over a cliff and mo in his desperation leaps after it falling into the abyss he barely manages to eat a few crumbs before he dies and with his final words he says that despite
everything it was worth it Mr Burns orders everyone to leave since dinner is over at that moment his wife arrives and gives him a harsh reprimand calling him a fool for breaking a promise made with a turkey bone on Thanksgiving Day something she claims is sacred she adds that if he doesn't keep it a terrible curse will fall upon Him Burns indifferent mocks her words dismissing the warning as just story however the old man is already doomed cursed for the rest of his days by all the souls he has tormented throughout his life now you
are cursed to be tormented by The Souls of all you have wronged till the end of your days though her words remind him of why he married her in the first place they both decide to enjoy the moment even as he remains under the curse the next day Homer Starving in the factory craves a taste of the corn syrup climbing onto a raised platform he tries to reach some of the sweet syrup but he slips and falls into the massive vat of boiling syrup which slowly envelops and melts him in his attempts to escape he
pulls a chain that only causes more hot syrup to pour over the other workers who are lifelessly fired from the factory as nightfalls Mr Burns prepares to sleep completely alone during the holidays but suddenly objects start moving and falling he tries to convince himself it's just the wind brushing it off as natural coincidences while he sleeps a strange noise jolts him awake and he gets up to investigate what's lurking looking out the window he sees the branches of an old tree tapping against the glass however when he turns around he comes face to face with
the ghost of Homer burned and Furious shouting that he's hungry hungry terrified Burns rushes to the bathroom to wash his face and clear his head but when he looks in the mirror he sees the ghost of Chief wigam followed by Willie in the bathtub causing him to flee in panic Mo suddenly appears and pushes him off the balcony making him land on his now ex-wife desperate Burns tries to leave his Mansion but every door is mysteriously locked with no other choice he takes a side exit and encounters the ghost of Homer who upon seeing his
other ghostly companions gets scared Mo tries to calm him with an apology only to seize the moment and scare him again now Burns finds himself completely surrounded by the hungry spirits of his former workers all of them staring at him with reproach at that moment he begins to believe in the Cur and decides that maybe he can break it if he finally offers them the dinner he had denied them however the ghost used this distraction to prevent his Escape while he tries to hide in a secret Refuge behind the library even the portraits of his
ancestors are after him and as he goes to to the kitchen to prepare the promised meal the spirits completely ignore the dinner when they pass through the table the food instantly rots because they don't want food they want his soul horrified the old man flees again hiding once more in his Refuge the ghost of his ex-wife appears and reminds him that he let his workers starve while he stuffed his pockets with money then when the ghosts CLS in on him Burns declares that they won't be able to devour his soul once he's dead and in
a desperate attempt he sprays himself with corn syrup and throws himself into the fire of the fireplace though he forgot that hell exists too you can't torment me if I'm [Music] dead I forgot about hell sometime after the destruction of the Mansion they find the remains of Mr Burns Melvin declares that from now on these dates will be known as black Fridays a warning to always remember the importance of treating workers well the third short titled denim starts with Homer and Barney in a Pants Store where both are looking for a new look for Homer
however he confesses that he's never really felt like a jeans guy Barney insists he reconsider his taste and style if he really wants to catch the eye of Marge the waitress from the cafe across the street still Homer believes that no matter how great the jeans he'd never get a woman like her to notice him or give him any of her time just at that moment a portal opens in the nearby alley and a very peculiar pair of pants emerges sneaking into the store while Homer tries on several pairs of jeans none seem to fit
the way he wants he thinks there's no pair of pants out there that can highlight his curves the right way then the stop motion pants slip into the fitting room and Homer not knowing how they got there assumes he forgot to try on this particular pair as soon as he puts them on he realizes as they fit him perfectly for the first time he can clearly see where his backside ends and his legs begin amazing he can see where my butt ends and my legs begin with Newfound confidence he heads to the cafe where the
lovely waitress works but he stops dead in his tracks unsure of how to start the conversation suddenly a deep voice Whispers to him telling him to praise marg's beautiful exposed legs Homer jumps freaked out cuz he doesn't know where the voice is coming from when he asks the pants answer back saying it was him who spoke as Homer tries to wrap his head around this snake walks in looking to rob the place pointing his gun at Marge and demanding all the money plus a chocolate candy when she tells him all they got is raisins he's
disgusted and decides he'll just take the money Homer wanting to do something heroic to impress her faces his own fear and doubts his courage but then his legs start moving on their own and with some crazy skills he kicks snake and knocks him out cold the thief surprised never would have expected such a stunt from a pair of pants that comfy when it's all over Marge steps up to him grateful thanking Homer for saving her this gets Homer all excited thinking maybe he's got some kind of hero Jee but then all of a sudden the
sound of police sirens fills the air and denim the pants tells him they got to bounce like right now without missing a beat they run and hide down an alley between two overpasses confused Homer asks what's going on and then the pants introduce themselves denim explains he's a bioadaptive pair of jeans and when Homer looks like he doesn't get it denim sums it up basically I'm a magic pair of jeans I am denim a bioadaptive symbiot i TI what my magical pants okay he adds that he's traveled from his planet rangore in Galaxy 50 one
escaping a massive climate catastrophe that caused acid rain and weakened his species Homer comments that it doesn't sound so bad but denim snaps back saying there's nothing good about getting weak and outdated plus it's pretty uncool denim goes on to say that in order for his species to survive on their Planet they need a human host and even though Homer's wide figure and big butt ain't exactly ideal he was chosen as Homer starts getting hungry they pass a food stand and denim suggests he get a sausage with a heap of beans curious Homer asks what
would happen if he decides not to help and what he'd get in return denim promises to give him exactly what he wants most in the world Marge's attention that night at a party all the guys seem to be trying to win over the woman of his dreams denim reassures Homer that he's going to help him seduce Marge so with no other option Homer goes up to her and asks her to dance she knows he saved her life but still turns him down but then denim takes control making Homer bust out his best dance moves totally
impressing Marge never seen such amazing White Dancing before she admits she's never seen anyone move like that and decides to give him a shot the magic pants then suggest that it's time to take things to the next level and enjoy a more intimate moment Homer who's never gotten this far with anyone starts getting nervous and says his only skill is frying potatoes when they finally get to Mar's house and she tries to take his pants off denim refuses to budge Homer feeling a little desperate asks Marge for a moment and heads to the bathroom looking
to work things out with his stubborn partner in there Homer ask denim why he brought him so far if he's now refusing to let go denim explains that no matter what he can't separate from his host without risk in his life but assures him that either way he'll help him with his mating ritual but don't worry I will help you complete your mating ritual after spending some time together Marge Falls for Homer later on she tells her sisters she's dating an incredible and sweet guy but she does mention he never takes off his pants they
tell her that if she really wants to be happy he's going to have to be more open now the two of them live together and Marge confesses she wants a deeper more intimate connection than just the friction they've been enjoying for the past couple of months but Homer a little reluctant doesn't know what to do so he heads to Mo's bar denim chimes in saying Marg is trying to separate them Homer starts thinking about the good times they've shared the laughs the memories and he realizes that maybe the best way to move forward is without
denim so with some courage he tries to tell denim it might be time for him to find some other pants but the Symbian begs him not to leave and Homer decides to face the situation the only way he knows how by getting drunk so he starts drinking heavily even giving denim some alcohol when they stumble back home completely out of it Marge takes the chance to take off his pants and replace them with a new pair the next morning Homer wakes up up wearing a different pair of jeans and horrified he asks where his old
pants went Marge tells him she put them in the washer and right then denim bursts out of the machine completely Furious warning that you should never wash a quality pair of jeans in a machine never wash quality dinner Homer trying to calm things down starts taking off the beige pants Marge put him in but with her doubts denim explains that Homer's his host and there's nothing she can do to separate them then denim takes control and from Homer's legs tries to attack Marge by suffocating her in his attempt to help Marge Homer grabs a lemon
and squeezes it over the pants trying to bleach them and weaken denim then he makes a small cut with a knife trying to buy some time so Marge can escape this causes denim feeling threatened to decide to look for a new host first he tries with Jeff then with Selma Mar's sister but that whole experience turns out to be unbearable due to her smell she always seem to be sweating which denim finds Real gross finally he manages to latch on to disco stew using his skates to get to Marge quickly with plans to use her
as a host and get rid of her personally Homer follows the whole scene up to the rooftop of a building where he faces off with Denim and declares he won't let anything or anyone tear them apart to marg's surprise Homer admits that the past few weeks have been the best of his life while she thinks those words are meant for her Homer's actually talking to Denim these past weeks have been the best of my life I can't live without you oh hi I love you too uh yeah I wasn't talking to you in the end
Homer and denim kick back and enjoy a game of video games together the pants satisfied with the reconciliation asks Homer if he's finally stopped following Mar on Facebook Homer in a moment of honesty admits he hasn't done it yet he thanks denim for sparing Marge's life and denim for his part confesses that the reason for his Mercy is that his species needs as many human hosts as they can get right then dozens of pants start arriving from his Planet ready to find new hosts on Earth
