“I was wrong to have a dream. Wrong as usual. I mean, if you’re nothing special, why kid yourself?” – Marge Simpson The obvious choice for comparing and contrasting Marge’s sandwich shop in “Super Franchise Me” is her pretzel wagon in “The Twisted World of Marge Simpson”. In both episodes, we see Marge not only strike out on her own a bit, but into the food industry, and with eventually poor results. Of course, in Season 8, we get into the story right away, instead of wading through an unrelated opening (montage included); and it makes a lot more sense…
