A Midsummer’s Nice Dreams A story involving Homer reuniting weed smoking comedians Cheech and Chong and Weed and Shakespeare’s A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream.
Plot
The title gag is Professor Frink flying with a jet pack.
The billboard gag is “Springfield Wax Museum. We’ve fixed the Air Conditioner.”
The chalkboard gag is “Daylight Savings is not a failed bank.”
The couch gag is couch springs catapulting the Simpsons into the screen. The smoosh comically against the viewers’ screen.
The Simpsons and Oscar are watching the news, hosted by Kent Brockman.
“The Queen will be held without bail, until the sample is returned from the lab.” said Kent as someone arrested the Queen of England!
“Oh my god! Nooooo!” Oscar screamed.
“Settle down Limey...” Homer sighed making him sit down.
“And now it’s time for That’s Kent a tainment!” said Kent. There was a montage of him doing stuff. Namely referencing famous movies such as Pulp Fiction as he dances with Uma Thurman. Gone With the Wind. Kent as Clark Gable kisses Kent as Scarlett. And The Godfather horse head scene.
Kent is then telling the story about Cheech and Chong. How they were originally weather reporters when some cops were burning a seized supply of cannabis and the fumes blew into the studio and made Cheech and Chong high.
Chong is eating the weather symbols.
“Why does everything have a Ometer at the end of it man? Thermometer, denominator, barometer...”
“Cheech and Chong were from Springfield through and through!” said Kent.
“Cheech and Chong are from Springfield?!” Lisa asked.
“Yessiree!” said Homer.
“Who’s Cheech and Chong?” Bart asked.
“Who’s Cheech and Chong?!” Homer gasped that he didn’t know who Cheech and Chong were.
“Yes, that’s what I’m asking you Dad! Who’s Cheech and Chong?”
“You don’t know who Cheech and Chong are?!” Homer gasped.
“No.” said Bart.
“They’re my generation’s Beavis and Butthead!” said Homer.
“Who’s Beavis and Butthead?” Bart asked.
“Do you you watch anything on this speaking box except Itchy and Scratchy and Krusty...” Homer groaned.
“Uh... Pokemon?” Bart asked.
Homer cried. “I’ve failed as a parent! I swore the day my son was born he’d appreciate Stoner comedy!” Homer weeps. “To the media room!”
The kids are confused by where that room is.
“The attic.” Homer explained dryly.
We cut to the attic. Homer has redecorated it as his hippy cave again and is sitting on a hand chair while Lisa and Bart are sat on beanbags.
Hugo is there eating fish heads from a bucket with a heavy iron ball chained to his ankle.
They’re watching Cheech and Chong.
“Dave’s not here man...”
Homer laughed.
“I don’t get it.” said Bart.
Homer cried.
“What are guys doing up here?” Marge asked coming up the ladder.
“I don’t know, you tell me mom...” Hugo said sulking that they messed up his room turning it into a hippy den from Homer’s weed smoking days.
“Aaaaaagh! Hide the dope!” Homer screamed.
“Dad we don’t have any dope...” said Lisa.
“Then what have I been smoking?” Homer asked. He had been smoking loft insulation. He screamed because it was asbestos.
“Mmmmmm... asbestos...” said Bart smiling.
“Bart!” Oscar yelled annoyed.
...
Downstairs in the living room Homer watched more Cheech and Chong.
“What is rain man?” said Cheech.
“Yeah man... it’s like we’re under an apartment and there’s overflow from God and his fat sister using the bath tub!” said Chong.
Homer laughed. Suddenly lightning struck.
In heaven God was pissed off! “Hey! Lay off the cracks about my fat sister!” God yelled. His sister frowned. “Uh... who is so totally not fat!” God added.
There was then an announcement. Cheech and Chong were reuniting to perform at the Springfield Clamphitheatre. A giant clam shaped theatre. Mmmmmm! Clams...
“Mmmmmmm! Clams...” Oscar moaned and drooled with hunger.
Homer gasped with joy and ran off.
He was at a hallway of a set of flats ringing a doorbell eagerly.
“Cheech and Chong are coming to the Clamphitheatre!” Homer and Buck Tamaki yelled at once in delight as Buck carried his nephew Oscar.
“Cheech and Chong are-“ yelled Otto with joy.
“We know!” Homer and Buck yelled with joy and the weed smokers hugged.
Then that random long haired guy from Simpson and Delilah screamed with joy and hugged them too.
“You like Cheech and Chong too?” Homer asked.
“Um... I just wanted to be part of this hug.” said the man.
...
Marge was annoyed Homer was smoking weed again while at the Clamphitheatre. She glared and grumbled as Homer was high on cannabis and celebrating with the other town junkies.
As the junkies had fun there was a montage of this to Afroman’s Because I got high, because I got hiiiiiiigh....
“Could have been meteorologists... but we got high... warm and cold fronts... but we got high...”
Cue men smoking weed, and Ruth and loads of black men. Black men like weed...
“Lou confiscate those brownies.” said Wiggum there to spoil the fun.
“Uh Chief those aren’t pot brownies...” said Lou.
“I said “Confiscate” them...” said Wiggum winking. He obviously wanted them to eat.
The last straw for Marge was when Oscar and Bart, clearly affected by the cannabis fumes were singing Afro Man’s Because I got High.
“Could have cleaned my room when asked... but I got high... could have got up and fetched the broom... but I got got high... Now my room’s still messed up! And I know why!” Bart sings.
“Why man?” Oscar sung.
“Because I got high! Because I got hiiiiiigh...” Bart sung. Marge absolutely furious dragged him off stage. Homer gulped as Marge was in her anti drugs mood again.
Meanwhile stage crew had trouble with a cage full of angry uniclams!
“Wow these uniclams are mad!” said a crew member as the chirping uni clams fluttered about mad and trying to escape the cage. Then cannabis smoke pacified them and they went to sleep, high on weed.
“Wow my hands are huge...” said a stage crew member.
