Story
Homer wakes up and discovers that everything and everyone around is made of small Lego bricks. Homer visits the Lego store at the Comic Bookseller to pick up the Fat and Patty princess toy set ordered for Lisa's birthday. Homer peers into the box, and then hallucinations are shown in the form of a normal cartoon. Homer gives a gift to Lisa and helps her build. Homer tells Lisa that while helping to build a castle, he was not bored. Although Lego Marge tells him that these are just dreams, Homer has hallucinations related to density wherever he goes and looks. In the evening, Homer, having washed his face, he sees himself in the mirror as before and is frightened, considering that he bought a mirror from a mysterious seller. Meanwhile, Bart Simpson of Lego inadvertently destroys the school building, chasing a skunk, which Milhouse bought from a gypsy for the theme “Show and tell”. Director Skinner as a punishment forces Barta to rebuild the school, despite the fact that the designer is intended to be used only for persons 12 years and older.
Homer continues to see himself and other Lego Springfield people as ordinary people, which leads him to turn his arms into a normal state when he attends church for everyone to see. When he came back to the comic book store, Homer again touched the toy box and he had another vision in the form of the animated aircraft building of the Lego model from Springfield and Lisa for the Lego design competition. Homer, in high spirits, manages to find common interest with her. Nevertheless, Lisa decides to go see the new film “Survival Games” (a parody of the “Hunger Games”) with the adult girls, forcing Homer to enter this contest himself. Because Homer wants him to live in Lego Springfield, which he created with her, where “everything fits and no one gets hurt”, Kenda's wild Lego Guy designer (parody of Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games) falls on Homer by knocking him down. After the Comics Salesman, that their world is a fantasy where Homer can spend time with Lisa forever, Homer perceives as a false reality.
While playing with Lego Lisa, Homer realizes that he will never experience it on himself or the rest of the family living his life, and decides that he should return to reality. Homer returns to the comic book store and learns from the Comic Book Seller that opening a box with a toy will result in him entering a fantasy world where he will remain in it forever. However, the Comic Book Retailer reveals itself as part of the psyche of Homer, who prefers the Lego world to the real world. He continues to strengthen his shop and puts Lego pirates and ninjas on Homer, so that he does not get to the box. Hearing Homer's shouts for help, Lego Bart builds a giant robot from various sets of games and knocks down pirates and ninjas before crashing into a shop. Homer finds the box in the rubble and opens it, returning to its former state. He kisses Lego Marge goodbye before jumping into the drawer.
Homer regains consciousness at the Lego competition and reunites with Lisa, who came home after she felt bad after leaving this competition. Homer tells Lisa about his dream and the lessons he learned about parenting. When Lisa begins to compare her dream with the plot of the film "Lego", Homer says that this is a new plot, because the full-length designs of the characters in the film "Emmett" and "Wildstil" are drawn. Homer allows Lisa to see the movie “Cold Games”, telling her that he cannot stop her from growing up. Shortly thereafter, Homer and Marge sit behind Liza and her friends in Cold Games, Homer complains about the film, while Marge enjoys it and is often embarrassed.
