The Simpsons - S07E07 - King-Size Homer

Synopsis de l'épisode

Homer tries everything to get out of the plant's new exercise program and discovers that being on disability would do just that. He tries a few dangerous things to become disabled, but sets on a plan to gain sixty-one pounds. Dr. Nick and Bart help him on his quest, while Marge and Lisa try to discourage him because of his health. After Homer succeeds, Mr. Burns allows him to work at home. He monitors plant safety on a computer, but is still irresponsible as ever. He leaves home to see a movie, leaving the responsibility for his computer in the beak of a bird. The plant's reactor starts to go critical before he returns home. Homer rushes to the plant and to try shutting down the reactor manually. He discovers how hard life is for a hyper-obese person in his frantic dash; when he tries to pull the switch that will shut it off, he wobbles back and forth. Luckily Homer's fat ass saves the day. In gratitude, Burns vows to make him a slimmer man by his exercise program. Homer can't even do one sit-up, so Burns says he'll pay for liposuction.
