03:47

03:57

04:00

Grampa Simpson: There's something I think you should know. Homer, you have a half-brother.

04:56

Grampa Simpson: (NOTICING) What are you blubbering about?

04:58

Homer Simpson: (TEARY) This makes me feel special, Dad. Since I'm the one you kept, that must mean you really love me.

05:04

Grampa Simpson: Hmmm... Interesting theory.

05:06

Homer Simpson: (CALLING) Excuse me, is this an orphanage?

05:38

Attendant: Ooo, you're a little late, pal. They tore down the orphanage thirty odd years ago.

05:42

Director: I myself have spent years searching for my long-lost twin brother --

06:05

Homer Simpson: (INTERRUPTING) Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, I wish I could help you but we're looking for my brother today. Can you tell me his name?

06:22

Homer Simpson: Oh please, please, this is my life we're talking about here. Please...

06:26

Director: Well, I do sympathize with your situation, Mr. Simpson. After all, your brother could be anywhere. (MEANINGFULLY) Even Detroit.

06:33

Homer Simpson: I know, he could be anywhere! That's why I want you to narrow it down! Please...

06:39

Director: You know Mr. Simpson, if you ask me, the City of Brotherly Love isn't Philadelphia... it's Detroit.

06:45

Homer Simpson: Well, if you ask me, changing the subject makes you the most worthless, heartless, excuse for a human being I ever...

06:51

Director: Read between the lines, you fool.

06:54

Homer Simpson: Oh, oh... I get it. (TAKES OUT WALLET) Okay. Here's twenty bucks. Now will you tell me where my brother lives?

07:33

Homer Simpson: No, I've called all three Herbert Powells in Detroit. Nothing.

07:37

Marge Simpson: Well, you want to try that H. Powell?

07:40

08:04

HERB: (INTO PHONE, MORE SHAKEN) How did you know that?

08:06

Homer Simpson: (INTO PHONE) Because... (BREAKING DOWN IN TEARS) ... I'm your baby brother, Homer!

08:10

Homer Simpson: (INTO PHONE) Hello? Hello? Hello? Stupid phone!

08:14

HERB: Hey, hey, knock it off! I'm here! I was just silent because of the emotion involved.

08:18

08:34

Homer Simpson: (OVERLAPPING) Just a little further. Just a little further. Just a little further. (SCREAMING) Just a little further.

08:38

Marge Simpson: Bart! Lisa! If you don't behave, we'll turn this car right around and go home.

08:42

Homer Simpson: (PANICKING) But Marge, I want to see my brother--

08:45

Marge Simpson: Oh for God's sakes, Homer, it's an empty threat.

08:48

Homer Simpson: Oh.

Homer Simpson: (ANNOYED GRUNT)

08:54

(Highway: EXT. HIGHWAY - SHOULDER)

08:54

Policeman: (TO HOMER) Did you know you were going... (DEFERENTIAL) Oh, sorry, sir. I didn't know it was you.

09:00

09:10

09:20

(Road: eXT. ROAD - DAY)

Homer Simpson: (ANNOYED GRUNT)

Bart Simpson: (LAUGH)

09:20

09:24

Executive #1: Uh... unfair trade practices?

09:25

Executive #2: Mushy-headed one-worlders in Washington?

09:27

Executive #3: Uh, some sort of gypsy curse?

09:29

HERB: I'm tired of excuses! Why did I ever hire you Harvard deadheads?

09:33

Executive #2: Because you went there, sir?

09:34

HERB: Yeah, but Mommy and Daddy didn't pay my way. I had to work my way through, washing your dishes and scrubbing your toilets!

09:41

Executive #2: Oh, yeah, now I remember you.

09:42

HERB: Have you come up with a name for our new economy model?

09:45

Executive #3: You're gonna love this, Chief. The "Persephone!"

09:48

HERB: "Persephone?" What the hell kind of name is "Persephone?"

09:52

Executive #1: She was the Greek Goddess of Spring and rebirth.

HERB: (GROANS)

09:56

Executive #2: And get this, sir. She was carried off to Hades by the King of the Underworld. While there, she ate six pomegranates...

10:01

HERB: People don't want cars named after hungry old Greek broads. They want names like "Mustang" and "Cheetah" -- vicious animal names. The problem with you guys is you've forgotten your roots. (TO EXECUTIVE #2) You, what are your roots?

10:16

Executive #2: Well, I guess you could say they extend to when the Angles met the Saxons.

10:20

HERB: In other words, when white met bread.

10:23

Executive #3: Sir, we'd love to know what your roots are and what they have to teach us.

10:27

HERB: I have no roots. All I know is that, I'm just a... lonely guy.

10:40

(Powell Estate: ext. powell estate - front gate)

11:10

Homer Simpson: Herb, allow me to introduce my family. This is my wife, Marge...

11:14

Marge Simpson: Hello.

11:14

HERB: Hello. (TO HOMER) You old dog, she's gorgeous!

11:17

Marge Simpson: Thank you.

11:19

11:22

Bart Simpson: Hello, sir.

11:22

Lisa Simpson: Hello, Mr. Powell

11:24

HERB: (ASIDE TO HOMER) All born in wedlock?

11:26

Homer Simpson: (ASIDE TO HERB) Yeah, though the boy was a close call.

11:28

HERB: So, Lisa, are you the little hell-raiser your father told me about?

11:33

Lisa Simpson: No, sir. I can assure you I am not.

11:34

Bart Simpson: I'm the little hell-raiser, sir.

11:37

Marge Simpson: Would you like to hold the baby, Herb?

11:39

HERB: Oh, I'm afraid I wouldn't know how.

11:40

Homer Simpson: What's to know? Just dive in. Catch!

11:45

12:02

Homer Simpson: Even pork chops?

12:03

HERB: Absolutely. We have a tennis court, a swimming pool, a screening room --

12:08

Homer Simpson: (INTERRUPTING) You mean, if I want pork chops -- even in the middle of the night -- your guy'll fry 'em up?

12:13

HERB: Sure. That's what he's paid for. Now, if you need towels, laundry, maids...

12:17

Homer Simpson: (INTERRUPTING) Wai-wai-wait, wait, wait. Let me see if I got this straight... It's Christmas day, four a.m., there's a rumble in my stomach...

12:24

Marge Simpson: Homer, please.

12:25

HERB: (LAUGHING, TO KIDS) Your old man sure loves pork chops.

12:28

Bart Simpson: (LAUGHING) He sure does, Uncle Herb.

12:30

12:37

Homer Simpson: Will you kids shut up?

12:48

HERB: So, Marge, a little about yourself.

12:50

Marge Simpson: Hmm, well, I met Homer in high school. We got married and had three beautiful children.

12:56

HERB: Wow, we have so much catching up to do.

12:59

Marge Simpson: (MURMURS) Actually, I just told you pretty much everything.

13:03

Lisa Simpson: (TO MARGE & HOMER) Watch me dive! Watch me dive! Watch me dive!

13:05

Homer Simpson: (NOT PAYING ATTENTION) Okay, we're watching.

13:07

Marge Simpson: I hope we're not spoiling them.

13:09

HERB: Nah.

13:09

Lisa Simpson: You weren't watching! You weren't watching! You weren't watching!

13:21

Grampa Simpson: (INTO PHONE) A millionaire!... (TO HIMSELF) I kept the wrong one. (INTO PHONE) Look son, I'll come as soon as I can get outta here. In the meantime, pleeze don't do anything stupid.

13:59

14:01

HERB: Hey, you know what these things cost me? There's maybe forty bucks worth of steel in them.

14:07

Homer Simpson: Oh, okay. I'd like a big one, then.

14:10

Executive #2: We don't have a big one.

14:11

Homer Simpson: Why not?

14:12

Executive #3: Because Americans don't want big cars.

14:15

Homer Simpson: Well, then give me one with lots of pep.

14:16

Executive #2: Sorry, our cars don't have pep.

14:18

HERB: Why not?

14:19

Executive #3: Because Americans want good mileage, not pep.

14:22

HERB: (TO HOMER) Homer, tell the nice man what country you come from.

14:25

Homer Simpson: America.

14:26

HERB: Do you hear that, you morons? This is why we're getting killed in the marketplace! Instead of listening to what people want, you're telling 'em what they want. Homer, I need your help.

14:37

Homer Simpson: You do.

14:38

HERB: Yeah. I want you to help me design a car. A car for all the Homer Simpsons out there! And I want to pay you two hundred thousand dollars a year!!

15:55

Head Engineer: Mr. Simpson, your brother told you to help us with this car now, didn't he?

15:58

Homer Simpson: Oh yeah, he did!

15:59

Head Engineer: (VERY CONDESCENDING) Hmmm hmmm, then why don't you get us some coffee.

16:03

Homer Simpson: (SADLY) Oh, okay.

16:05

Bart Simpson: Batting nine. Unky, Herbbbb!

16:07

Homer Simpson: Ugh, oh boy.

16:11

HERB: Hey Homer, how's your car coming?

16:12

Homer Simpson: Oh fine. We're putting in an on-board something-or-other and rack-and-peanut steering...

16:17

HERB: Homer...

16:18

Homer Simpson: Huh?

16:19

HERB: You didn't ask for rack and pinion steering, did you?

16:22

Homer Simpson: Uh, yeah, I think I did.

16:23

HERB: How could you ask for it? You don't even know what it is! You just called it rack and peanut steering.

16:27

Homer Simpson: Uh, may I be excused, please?

16:29

HERB: No! Homer, do you know why I gave you this job?

16:32

Homer Simpson: Because you think I'm a genius?

16:33

HERB: Nah, I don't think you're a genius.

16:35

Homer Simpson: Because you think I'm dynamic?

16:36

HERB: I don't think you're dynamic.

16:38

Homer Simpson: You think I work well with others?

16:40

HERB: No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Homer, I gave you this job because you're an average schmoo.

16:43

Homer Simpson: (DEJECTED) Oh, great.

16:44

HERB: All you need is a little self-confidence.

16:46

Homer Simpson: (PLEADING) Ah, Unky Herb, I don't know anything about cars.

16:48

HERB: Up...up...up. Listen to me, here's what you do. From now on, before you say anything, say to yourself, "If I was ever sure of anything, I'm sure of this." Do you understand?

16:58

Homer Simpson: (MEEKLY) Sort of.

16:59

HERB: Homer!

16:59

Homer Simpson: What?

17:00

HERB: Answer me again with self-confidence.

17:21

Head Engineer: (COWED) Extremely large beverage holder.

17:22

18:35

18:44

HERB: Oh good, good, good, good.

19:25

21:31

HERB: Maybe I would have been better off?! Maybe? Why, you spongehead, of course I'd have been better off! As far as I'm concerned, I have no brother.
