I've often thought I need to develop some kind of system that randomly picks an episode for me to watch so I don't have to spend time making that decision. <br /><br />@Dr. Bitz: <i>Yeah, Maggie's crying, but buy her an ice cream cone and all will be forgiven...and then you'll be rich!</i><br /><br />Yeah, I tried to speak to that a bit, because it's a criticism I share. And at the end of the day, it's tough to argue with your sentiment - especially since Maggie is a baby, so it isn't even like she's likely to remember that time Homer took away the bear, especially as she's growing up in the lap of luxury on a Hawaiian island. <br /><br />As much as I love the rest of the episode, it's probably the plot point that keeps it out of my perpetual "favorite episode" discussion. <br />Austin Gortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281239771248780430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266470995513648978.post-27972065652217517002013-08-06T10:30:11.877-05:002013-08-06T10:30:11.877-05:00As you know, this episode will continually bother ...As you know, this episode will continually bother me because of the ending.
