SIMPSONS, THE - The Secret War of Lisa Simpson

Air Date/Released Sunday, May 18, 1997
Station/Studio Fox / 20th Century Fox TV

Satirical, animated sitcom adventures of the dysfunctional, working class Simpsons family. The strange town of Springfield is their home, populated by a mixture of neurotics and socially stunted weirdos.

Bart’s latest school prank results in Homer and Marge shipping him off to military school. Impressed by the curricular regimentation, Lisa also enrolls but finds herself ostracized because she’s a girl. Bart fits in with the other students, but finds himself in the unusual position of helping his sister succeed. Depressed, Lisa makes a late night phone call to her senile grandfather...
Lisa: Oh, Grampa! You're not busy, are you?
Grampa: Well, you're really asking two questions there. The first one takes me back to 1934. Admiral Byrd had just reached the pole, only hours ahead of the Three Stooges... and I guess he won the argument, but I walked away with the turnips. The following morning, I resigned my commission in the Coast Guard. The next thing I heard, there was civil war in Spain... and, that's everything that happened in my life right up to the time I got this phone call.
