   I thought the first act was good.  I guess CBG's wife was minding the   
   Android Dungeon while he played games at the other store?  ;)   
       
   As for the TV-14 rating, I wonder if it was because of the weird drinks   
   and pill-popping (despite being vitamins or "mini-burgers") that happened   
   later at the mansion.   
       
   The rest of the episode had Bart playing a role that we might expect Lisa   
   to play... assistant to a scientist... but I felt like they actually   
   lampooned this juxtaposition a little bit, with Lisa showing her disdain   
   for the pairing while trying to get a scholarship from one of the other   
   billionaires.
