Story
A competition is being held at the local KBBL radio station: DJs call by random number and offer to guess the phrase they conceived. The winner will receive a choice of $ 10,000 or a "stupid prize." The Simpsons also have a bell. Bart picks up the phone and guesses the phrase. DJs offer him a choice of money or a prize - an African elephant . Bart chooses an elephant, and another animal appears in the Simpsons house - Stampy .
Homer and Marge decide that their house is too small for an elephant. The family is visited by a game reserve representative who tells the Simpsons that there is an object similar to the African shroud in which Stampy will live comfortably. In the end, while the family is considering a representative’s proposal, a Wildlife Poacher is announced who wants to buy Stampy. Homer wants to take the money, but Lisa is against - especially after the Poacher openly declared that after the deal he was going to kill Stampy to get his tusks. The poacher insists on selling the elephant and the Simpsons have to flee.
