Watching “The Simpsons” on Channel TEN! The Episode is called “Bart the Fink“.

PLOT:
After the death of great aunt Hortense, the Simpson family attends a will reading. Each member of the family discovers they will receive $100 to do with as they like, but only after spending the night in a haunted house. Though Bart wishes to buy a hundred tacos from the TacoMat and Lisa to contribute to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Marge has them open bank accounts at the Bank of Springfield. Bart is excited with his new checking account, and begins writing checks for his friends. Bart attempts to get Krusty the Clown‘s autograph, but the clown is having a new sandwich named after him and has to leave. Just before he does, Bart slips a check for twenty-five cents into Krusty’s pocket, figuring that he will receive an endorsed copy of it with his monthly bank statement. However, when Bart receives the check, it is endorsed with a stamp (“Cayman Islands Off-Shore Holding Corporation”) instead of a signature. Dismayed, Bart takes the check back to the bank so that they can force Krusty to sign it. Suspicious, a bank teller investigates, and within minutes Krusty is exposed as one of the biggest tax cheats in American history.
The IRS takes control of Krusty’s assets and his show, reducing his lifestyle to that of an average citizen. One evening, as the town watches, a depressed Krusty pilots his airplane into a mountainside. He is later pronounced dead. A memorial service is held for Krusty at which Bob Newhart offers condolences. While everyone assumes that Krusty is dead, Bart believes otherwise when he begins to see a Krusty look-alike all over town. With Lisa’s help, he soon discovers that Krusty has gone into hiding under the disguise of Rory B. Bellows, a grizzled old longshore worker. They try to convince him to return to his former life, and he finally accepts when they explain how he is more respected than the nations’ scientists and teachers. Krusty kills off his pseudonym in a “boating accident” in order to collect the life insurance, thus ending his tax woes.

Couch Gag: The couch is a fax machine that spews out a piece of paper with The Simpson family in a sitting position.

Nielsen rating: 8.8
