“Why? That was the problem in the first place. You were going broke because we were your only customers. Wasn’t that the problem in the first place? That you were going broke? Moe? Moe? Hey, Moe! Oh, you’re thinking about all the money you blew, aren’t you? What was it, fifty? Sixty thousand dollars? . . . Moe? Look, maybe it would help if we went over all the mistakes you made from the beginning. . . . Moe?” – Homer Simpson
“What!?” – Moe
“Lemme get a pad.” – Homer Simpson

As always, thank god for the DVDs. This whole bit is cut in syndication, and I didn’t get to see it until I bought Season 7.
Really? That’s a shame. This is one of my favorite jokes in the episode. A transcript just can’t do justice to Castellaneta’s delivery. It’s Homer at his best: unthinkingly being the biggest jerk in the room. He even thinks he’s being helpful!
I guess now that I have season 7 on DVD, I need to watch these. I keep noticing new syndication cuts, most likely for extra commercial time, on some of the episodes I have recorded that weren’t there before and it’s annoying as hell. There were a few in the Radioactive Man recording I watched not too long ago, for example.
Same here. Damn syndication cuts. It’s like almost watching a new episode though or extra scenes on DVD when you discover them.
Great episode!
It’s well-rounded, with likable characterizations and one of the funniest B story in the series.
I don’t remember the A and the B stories ever intersecting, but I’m not going to watch it soon to check.

They don’t really, except for the fact that it’s at Moe’s restaurant that Lisa finally breaks Bart and makes him run off in search of his soul. Which leads to another fantastic Castellaneta delivery about eating Bart’s spaghetti and Moe balls.
