Treehouse of Horror XXII

Start

When Bart , Lisa and Maggie return from asking for sweets from their neighbors, Marge swaps sweets for products that are good for her teeth, and tells Homer to deliver sweets to the Marine Corps. Instead, Homer runs away with a bag of chocolates to eat them alone near the cliff. Unfortunately, he slips and falls to the bottom of the canyon, and a stone crushed his hand. The bag is far from Homer, and he has to wait 20 minutes for rescuers. Homer does not stand up and bites off his pressed hand. Climbing to the bag, Homer discovers that there were vegetables in the bag, while the children, laughing, eat stolen sweets.
