Clown Without Pity

Lisa's story begins as Homer buys Bart a Krusty the Clown doll for his birthday. When Bart pulls Krusty's string, the doll smiles and says, "I'm Krusty the Clown and I love you very much." But when Homer is alone with the doll, it speaks by itself and threatens to kill him. Terrified, Homer begs the family to keep the doll away from him. The family thinks that Homer is imagining things until Marge finds the doll clutching Homer's head and dunking him into the dog's water dish. A Krusty doll repairman finds a "Good/Evil" switch on the back and moves it to "Good." Relieved, Homer makes the doll his personal servant.

King Homer

Grampa weaves a tale set in the 1930s that begins with Mr. Burns and Smithers setting off on an expedition to capture the monster ape, King Homer. They take Marge along as bait. Arriving at Ape Island, Smithers knocks out the giant ape with laughing gas and returns with him to Manhattan to star in a freak show on Broadway. King Homer breaks free from his chains and scales the Empire State Building. Out of breath at the second story, he falls form the building and crashes to the pavement below. Marge takes pity on him and marries him.

Dial "Z" For Zombie

Bart tells a tale of the damned: Bart finds a book in the library that explains how to bring the dead back to life. He tries to bring Lisa's dead cat, Snowball I, back to life, but instead revives every person who has been dead for the past several hundred years. The zombies rise from their graves, seeking out living human brains. They rampage through Springfield, sucking out brains. Finally they come looking for the Simpsons. Homer offers himself up to spare the family, but the zombies determine that he is brainless. Finally, Bart unearths a spell that sends the zombies back to their graves.
