322
00:15:50,188 --> 00:15:52,890
My degradation continued.

323
00:15:52,957 --> 00:15:55,025
BAR RAG:
<i>An enterprising seamstress</i>

324
00:15:55,093 --> 00:15:57,861
<i>turned me into the flag</i>
<i>of a fledgling nation.</i>

325
00:15:57,912 --> 00:16:01,465
<i>Unfortunately, a nation</i>
<i>on the wrong side of history.</i>

326
00:16:01,533 --> 00:16:04,952
("Dixie" playing)

327
00:16:05,036 --> 00:16:07,421
(chuckles)

328
00:16:07,505 --> 00:16:10,691
BAR RAG: <i>Like everyone else, I</i>
<i>was hit hard by the depression.</i>

329
00:16:10,759 --> 00:16:12,009
(Southern accent):
What's for dinner, Ma?

330
00:16:12,076 --> 00:16:13,961
Rag soup!

331
00:16:17,015 --> 00:16:18,816
(slurping, lips smacking)

332
00:16:18,883 --> 00:16:20,851
Needs flavor.

333
00:16:23,521 --> 00:16:26,156
Mmm, that's better!

334
00:16:28,777 --> 00:16:30,277
BAR RAG:
<i>I was part of an expedition</i>

335
00:16:30,361 --> 00:16:32,679
<i>to the top of Mount Everest,</i>

336
00:16:32,747 --> 00:16:36,200
<i>one that had the distinction</i>
<i>of failing un-heroically.</i>

337
00:16:36,267 --> 00:16:38,735
(panting):
Oxygen...

338
00:16:38,787 --> 00:16:41,572
I need oxygen!

339
00:16:41,623 --> 00:16:44,124
Come on, man. A few more balloons
and this'll look really awesome.

340
00:16:44,192 --> 00:16:45,325
D'oh!

341
00:16:45,410 --> 00:16:48,128
Worst... climbing... Everest.

342
00:16:50,732 --> 00:16:52,716
BAR RAG:
<i>A yeti found me</i>

343
00:16:52,784 --> 00:16:55,385
<i>and brought me home</i>
<i>as a present to his son.</i>

344
00:16:55,453 --> 00:16:57,321
Ah, ah!

345
00:16:57,388 --> 00:16:58,788
Mmm...

346
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:03,877
(sighs) And now my thousand-year
fall from grace is complete.

347
00:17:03,945 --> 00:17:07,848
I guess I should be happy here,
with my sad, but predictable...

348
00:17:07,916 --> 00:17:09,783
Moe! Moe! Wake up!

349
00:17:09,851 --> 00:17:12,753
Oh no, I don't want to find out
what's worse than you!

350
00:17:16,181 --> 00:17:17,415
BART:
Milhouse!

351
00:17:17,483 --> 00:17:19,117
I've been out here
all night, man.

352
00:17:19,184 --> 00:17:21,452
Just let me know what it'll take
for you to forgive me.

353
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,454
Can I punch you?
Sure.

354
00:17:23,522 --> 00:17:25,223
Can I have someone
else punch you?

355
00:17:25,290 --> 00:17:26,457
Sure. What've you got?

356
00:17:26,525 --> 00:17:28,226
Puppy Goo-Goo coming my way?

357
00:17:28,293 --> 00:17:29,694
(snaps)

358
00:17:31,997 --> 00:17:33,297
<i>Ay carumba!</i>

359
00:17:35,434 --> 00:17:37,101
I'm glad it's over.

360
00:17:37,169 --> 00:17:40,004
I wasn't comfortable
having the upper hand.

361
00:17:40,072 --> 00:17:43,107
From now on I'll dominate you
in ways you don't realize.

362
00:17:43,175 --> 00:17:46,077
That's all I ever wanted.

363
00:17:46,145 --> 00:17:47,645
Where'd it go?
Where'd it go?

364
00:17:47,713 --> 00:17:50,281
Hey, Chief Wiggum!
Can you help me find my bar rag?

365
00:17:50,349 --> 00:17:53,384
I can't even find my car
in the parking lot at the mall.

366
00:17:53,452 --> 00:17:56,954
There was half a kilo of heroin
and two suspects inside.

367
00:17:57,022 --> 00:17:59,090
Hey! Hey!
(tires squealing, gunshots)

368
00:17:59,157 --> 00:18:01,459
Can you throw me my house key?
Please!

369
00:18:01,510 --> 00:18:03,294
It's got a green thingy on it!

370
00:18:03,345 --> 00:18:04,312
Stop!
(tires screech)

371
00:18:04,379 --> 00:18:05,396
Ooh!

372
00:18:05,464 --> 00:18:06,931
(grunting)

373
00:18:06,999 --> 00:18:08,199
Hey, there's some
Pringles in here.

374
00:18:08,267 --> 00:18:11,269
(metal tab pops)
(coughs) Nope. Tear gas.

375
00:18:11,336 --> 00:18:12,737
(coughing)
(tires squealing)

376
00:18:12,804 --> 00:18:15,973
Haven't forgotten
about your rag, Moe!

377
00:18:16,024 --> 00:18:18,359
(to rhythm of dryer): I'm in
hell, I'm in hell, I'm in hell,

378
00:18:18,443 --> 00:18:20,228
I'm in hell... (grunts)

379
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,535
(wearily):
Perhaps one of you garments

380
00:18:27,603 --> 00:18:29,337
would like to narrate
for a while.

381
00:18:29,404 --> 00:18:31,439
Men's extra large underwear?

382
00:18:31,507 --> 00:18:33,508
I'm saving my strength.

383
00:18:33,575 --> 00:18:35,977
He's going bike riding today.

384
00:18:36,044 --> 00:18:38,145
(humming)

385
00:18:38,213 --> 00:18:39,747
(doorbell rings)
Come on in!

386
00:18:43,602 --> 00:18:45,203
You've got my
rag! But how?

387
00:18:45,270 --> 00:18:46,971
Well, during
the town meeting,

388
00:18:47,039 --> 00:18:48,839
which now seems
like years ago,

389
00:18:48,907 --> 00:18:51,375
I forgot my purse
at your bar.

390
00:18:51,443 --> 00:18:53,811
MARGE:
<i>And when I came back to get it,</i>

391
00:18:53,879 --> 00:18:56,180
<i>I saw how much</i>
<i>you love that rag.</i>

392
00:18:56,231 --> 00:18:59,767
Num-num-num-num-num-num.

393
00:18:59,835 --> 00:19:02,203
MARGE:
<i>It seemed a little "ripe,"</i>

394
00:19:02,271 --> 00:19:04,305
so I brought it home
to clean it for you.

395
00:19:04,373 --> 00:19:05,606
Thanks, Marge.

396
00:19:05,674 --> 00:19:08,442
That rag is my only friend
in the world.

397
00:19:08,510 --> 00:19:10,595
Well, that's not true!

398
00:19:10,662 --> 00:19:12,896
Everyone in this family
is your friend.

399
00:19:12,948 --> 00:19:14,865
Your bar is the closest
thing this town has

400
00:19:14,933 --> 00:19:17,068
to an Algonquin roundtable.

401
00:19:17,135 --> 00:19:20,371
What about that Round Table
Pizza run by that Algonquin guy?

402
00:19:20,422 --> 00:19:22,823
Yeah, yeah,
okay, second closest.

403
00:19:22,891 --> 00:19:25,509
So you's all like me?
Even you, maestro?

404
00:19:25,577 --> 00:19:26,711
Milhouse.

405
00:19:26,762 --> 00:19:27,912
Yeah, I, I knew
it was something stupid.

406
00:19:27,980 --> 00:19:30,615
Well, thanks, everybody.

407
00:19:30,682 --> 00:19:33,551
I... I'm always gonna
remember today as the day

408
00:19:33,619 --> 00:19:36,053
that I learned to open
my heart to human beings

409
00:19:36,121 --> 00:19:38,389
and not old pieces of cloth.

410
00:19:38,457 --> 00:19:42,926
Ha, crazy me, Thinking
I needed a rag for a friend.

411
00:19:42,978 --> 00:19:43,811
(chuckles)

412
00:19:47,616 --> 00:19:50,001
So, this is how it ends.

413
00:19:50,068 --> 00:19:53,070
The once magnificent
tapestry tossed aside

414
00:19:53,138 --> 00:19:55,840
yet again like a common Kleenex.

415
00:19:55,907 --> 00:19:57,925
Good-bye, cruel... What the...?

416
00:20:02,914 --> 00:20:04,548
In all my years,

417
00:20:04,616 --> 00:20:07,918
this is a love
like I have never felt.

418
00:20:07,986 --> 00:20:10,671
Sweet, pure and forever.

419
00:20:10,756 --> 00:20:12,974
(sweet melody playing)

420
00:20:17,596 --> 00:20:19,397
(growling)

421
00:20:19,464 --> 00:20:22,233
BAR RAG: <i>Well, all marriages</i>
