   Not too bad, overall, with a reasonable mix of story types. Hooray. I'm not   
   sure if the tiny third story (is 80 seconds the shortest act so far?) is   
   purely filler or what, but at least that answers the question of why the first   
   commercial break didn't    
   come right after the title.   
      
   Previous episode stuff   
   4F20: A different kind of plant/tree gag used   
      
   Meta   
   Not only does Bart actually tell a scary story in a treehouse again for once,   
   but Homer remarks on the annual tradition, etc. (Plus Kang and Kodos gag at   
   end, one of the ambulatory trees reappearing in the final story, chalkboard   
   gag...)   
      
   Joke analysis   
   Audrey II identifies as a tree, but that ruins the joke (that he's a   
   "trans-plant"); the fact that trees are a subset of plants aside, the bit   
   could work if, well, reworked!
