Chuck Wildler breaking the pitching record for most batters knocked unconscious.
Mm-hmm!
Upper deck.
We're so far away.
I wanted to see teeth fly.
Relax, nobody comes to Isotopes games.
We'll move into the empty seats behind home plate.
You'll be so close to the carnage, you'll have flashbacks for the rest of your life.
What the heck?
Why is it so crowded?
And why are they all girls?
And why are they all checking each other's teeth for lipstick?
Do I have lipstick?
Is it gone?

Do I have hot dog?
Am I good?
(indistinct chatter) Oh, I should have hot dog in my teeth.
Sir, how long have you been a proud member of the Murmur Nation?
Since never.
Ashlee Starling is a whiny pop singer for whiny girls that love to whine.
Right, boy?
I disagree.
Ashlee Starling's well-crafted songs speak to the inner lives of teens and tweens alike.
But you said...
I've never met this man.
If I knew him, I would teach him to love Ashlee by sharing that one song about how you're beautiful no matter what your face looks like.
Why are you talking like that?
(gasps) Did one of them bite you?
Do you have any idea what you just mobilized?
You insulted Ashlee Starling on camera.
I am looking into the eyes of a dead man.

(shrieking) (screaming) (shaky breathing) Aah!
(screeches) "Love" is in quotes.
What were you thinking?
You've made the nuclear power plant a very dangerous place to work.
You have become the target of a highly organized, newly-hormonal fan army.
Because of you, I have to wear this T-shirt.
In case anyone's wondering, I don't agree with Homer.
Whew.
You don't know these fan armies.
They're all ruthless psychos.
Except for the BTS ARMY, who are just and pure of heart.
Mm-hmm.
(groans softly) Dad, if you ever want to breathe un-glittered air again, you have to repent and devote your life to Ashlee.
Oh, you're blowing this out of proportion.
Everything's gonna be f-f...

We have broken him.
You sure you're cool with this?
Totally.
My dad has to pay for what he said about Ashlee.
Great job, Murmur Nation.
We've got D'oh-boy on the ropes.
I feel bad for the ropes.
We couldn't have made it this far without you, Lisa.
I'm doing it for Ashlee.
I'm a hardcore Starling fan.
She encourages girls everywhere to speak truth to power and never date John Mayer.
But selling out your own dad?
That is Stone Cold Creamery, and I'll take two scoops.
I love my dad, but you guys are my besties.

Aah!
What's your face?
I'm pop sensation, U.N.
AmbassaDiva and lip gloss spokesmouth, (echoing): Echo.
Mm?
I had my name legally changed to do that.
I hear the birdbrain fans of Murmur Nation have been giving you trouble.
I haven't had a single day's sleep at work.
Miss Ashlee and I have the standard megastar feud.
We released dueling diss tracks then diss sketches on SNL.
We both diss-dated Pete Davidson.
That guy's got big diss energy.
I've always believed the frenemy of my frenemy is my ene-friend.
Obviously.
Why don't we team up and clip some Starling wings?
I have my own fan army.
(echoing): The Echolaliacs.
Hmm...
An eye for an eye.
(gasps) Everyone wins!
Let's do it.
Oh, careful...
(gasps) 'Sup, Books.
Ooh, looks like you're making a glitter bomb.
Don't be ridicu...
(coughs) ...lous.
Look, I know you're part of the army that's driving dad bananas.
I want in.
No way.
You don't believe in the power of music and weaponizing breakups.
Lisa, I have spent years thinking of ways to screw with dad, and they're all right here.
Hmm.
Skunk vendors, atomic whoopee cushions.
This is exactly what we need.
But why would you help us?
Because, for the first time, you have something I want: an army.
I can finally bring my wildest prank dreams to life on a grand scale.
Like this.
I call it the Alley Oops.
Okay, as soon as the Fat Lebowski sticks his fingers in the ball, they'll be Krazy-Glued in and he'll bowl himself down the greased alley right into the waiting pool of garbage juice.
The pool's in place.
We drained every dumpster in town.
Yes!
Got him.
Whoa.
What's happening?
Oh, God!
My fingers seem to be...
(grunts) ...great at bowling.
(gasps) He must be on to us.

Glitter war is sparkly hell.
Mrs.
Simpson, are you proud of what your husband has done to this town?
No.
The thing I hate most about armies, fan or otherwise, is the mess.
I love my husband, but I disagree with him about Ashlee.
I listened to one of her albums.
It was great.
She sure knows which of her boyfriends were bad for her.
All of them.
(laughs) You heard it here first.
Ashlee Starling is great, but not as great as BTS or their fans, who are sane and perfect.
Mm-hmm.
I got the family size.
This'll make enough slime to fill his toilet and his secret toilet.
Maybe we could work in Tabasco toilet paper.
Whoa, that's messed-up.
Thanks.
(chuckles) I'm learning from you.
(chuckles) This has been really great.
Who would have thought that you and I could connect on such a deep level?
(phone dings) You're out of the group.
What?!
Yeah.
Mackenzie said you weren't excited enough to meet her dog.
But-but who names their dog Greg?
That's a man name.
And why didn't you stand up for me?
Meh, sheroes before bros.
I'll tell dad everything.
If you do, then I'll show him your little notebook of pranks.

(gasps) It's for me?
She must have heard me tell Kent Brockman that I listened to her song once.
What?
I mean...

you just made one comment.
(laughs) Good for you.
I'm having dinner with a famous person.

As a great man once said, "Haw-haw."
I can't believe you're having dinner with my nemesis, after all the handsome pills I take for you.
(helicopter approaching) That's my ride.
(gasps) Hello, Marge.
I'm Ashlee Starling.
I know.
We hired a look-alike of you for Lisa's birthday.
You're taller.
She had bigger boobs.
Ooh, thank you.
Ooh, wow!
(chuckles) It's my own line of sparkling whiskey.
Mmm, yum.
Mmm, mmm.
(smacks lips) Look at your sweet family.
I'm sure your husband is perfect.
(kids growling) Stop it!
(laughs) Homer is far from perfect.
Really?
Tell me everything.
Mmm, ooh.
(grunting) (laughs) Ashlee said the funniest thing at dinner.
No one wants to hear about your thrilling night with a vengeful pop diva.
Lisa, sweetie, delight us with one of your little stories about how the planet is choking on plastic.
Don't "sweetie" her.
She's the one behind those Murmur Nation attacks on you.
(gasps) (gasps) Lisa.
Wh...
But you're the one kid I had on purpose.
Well, Bart was part of it, too, and he doesn't even like Ashlee.
He did it just for the fun of torturing you.
(gasps) You?
The person I would most suspect?
I never could have seen it coming.
Kids, how could you do that to your father?
What?
You're the worst betrayer of all.

Ashlee took the things I told her in new-friend confidence and made it into a bad boyfriend song.
This has been quite the morning.
But I'm most disappointed in you, Maggie.
Mm?
Eh?
Evil triumphs when good babies do nothing.
I'm leaving.
Homer?
What happened?
Aw.
I can't believe they would do this to me.
Hey, could I use your billion-dollar entertainment complex to produce a diss track to take them all down?
You should be careful with that.
When my dermatologist wouldn't fly to Japan to remove a culturally insensitive mole, I hit him with my single "Mole Check, Soul Check."
It destroyed him.
Do you want to do that to your family?
No.
I love them.
Homer, music isn't just for dissing people.
Wha...?!
Why don't we make a video that tells your family how much they hurt you?
An "I've been dissed" track, if you will.
I will.
It's been three days.
Dad's never stayed mad this long.
Maybe we should run the can opener.
He always comes when he hears that.
I tried that already.

(grunting) (laughs) Ashlee said the funniest thing at dinner.
No one wants to hear about your thrilling night with a vengeful pop diva.
Lisa, sweetie, delight us with one of your little stories about how the planet is choking on plastic.
Don't "sweetie" her.
She's the one behind those Murmur Nation attacks on you.
(gasps) (gasps) Lisa.
Wh...
But you're the one kid I had on purpose.
Well, Bart was part of it, too, and he doesn't even like Ashlee.
He did it just for the fun of torturing you.
(gasps) You?
The person I would most suspect?
I never could have seen it coming.
Kids, how could you do that to your father?
What?
You're the worst betrayer of all.
Dad, you should see the video Ashlee just dropped after her night of girl talk with Mom.

I hover 'cause I'm afraid of being flushed.
Oh, my God.
Ashlee took the things I told her in new-friend confidence and made it into a bad boyfriend song.
This has been quite the morning.
But I'm most disappointed in you, Maggie.
Mm?
Eh?
Evil triumphs when good babies do nothing.
I'm leaving.
Homer?
What happened?
Aw.
I can't believe they would do this to me.
Hey, could I use your billion-dollar entertainment complex to produce a diss track to take them all down?
You should be careful with that.
When my dermatologist wouldn't fly to Japan to remove a culturally insensitive mole, I hit him with my single "Mole Check, Soul Check."
It destroyed him.
Do you want to do that to your family?
No.
I love them.
Homer, music isn't just for dissing people.
Wha...?!
Why don't we make a video that tells your family how much they hurt you?
An "I've been dissed" track, if you will.
I will.
It's been three days.
Dad's never stayed mad this long.
Maybe we should run the can opener.
He always comes when he hears that.
I tried that already.
(whimpers) (burps) Tomorrow, we'll start calling theme park jails.
Homie!
Dad!
Where you been?
LISA: Hmm?
MARGE: Hmm.

We're all sorry Lisa betrayed you.
ALL: Mm.
LISA: Sorry!
Accident.
Forgot where I put them all.
There's probably more.
(all coughing) LISA: That's gonna happen for a while.

Captioned by Media Access Group at WGBH access.wgbh.org (doorbell rings) Mr.
Simpson, the Murmur Nation has decided to stop attacking you.
My video made you think, huh?
No.
It was super cringe, like watching two teachers make out.
I understand.
Been a pleasure doing war with you.
May psychotic super-fandom always lend meaning to your otherwise anonymous existence.
BOY: Hmm.
(all grunting) It's crazy that I believed in someone so much that I got swallowed up in groupthink.
I know.
So scary.
(gasps) Oh, my God, we're late for church!
I'll get nice, crisp dollars for the donation basket.
Shh.
