   OK episode. Burns' story was definitely on the softer side of his character   
   (without nearly as much exploration or arc as, say, 1F01) and it had a bizarre   
   lightning-fast resolution that basically amounted to "oh, I guess you're   
   right". The variety show    
   acts and so on were fun (compare to 2F31), though there was a bit more   
   consequence-free bodily harm (Kirk, Sherri/Terri) than necessary. Homer's   
   subplot about being responsible at work was cute. Best part of the episode   
   might be the "S__ING__E_D" sign,    
   which was pretty clever and not overdone. And of course super short (21   
   minutes including credits).   
      
   Short entry for this episode.   
      
   DYN:   
   ...apparently Homer's Super Soaker is left-hand threaded?   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   2F14: "The sun is shining, birds are singing" at the start of episode   
   reminiscent of very similar opening to that one   
   1F09: Accidental eye surgery in similar vein   
   AABF10: Balloons as outfit, getting popped
