First of all, I'm you. Good to see you all, Sport. Where's freedom? Well, my dad said don't bring him any more dogs, cats, turtles or snakes, but he never said anything about predatory birds. Anything about predatory birds. Predatory. Predatory. Where are predatory species? Where are predatory species? Okay, in your terms, points are like mice. Don't interrupt, I just thought it would be nice if we shared an interest.Oh, you Korean girls know what a soldier likes. Fine, but the game is much more enjoyable if you understand it. Look, the eagle's in the falcons. Tell me you're not interested in that. I could fly too if I didn't have a wife and three kids. Hey, you've had a lot of visitors. No, I signed them myself. They're people I would have liked to come visit. Like a Roomba. Listen, what happened in that tree? You want the truth? Of course you do. You're like Diogenes, but with a slingshot instead of a lamp. But with a slingshot instead of a lamp. So, why would Gordon offer up the woman he's dating in place of my fiancée? So, why would Gordon offer up the woman he's dating in place of my fiancée?
Do we have an agreement? Skate instead of ettoflit. Do we have an agreement? Skate instead of ettoflit. I wanted to fly. I know it sounds a little crazy now, but I suddenly thought maybe we can all fly. But somehow we've forgotten that we can. You don't still think that, do you? Hey, I'm not flying anywhere with this broken wing. Mark, here's another doctor that would like a few words with this young man. This hospital has another doctor? So they're transferring him to another hospital. Well, I hope he gets out soon and takes his bird bank.
I don't care for him, but circles I can't. He's just riding the thermals from Dad's butt. Really? Someone in this family is using him? I never heard of this new hospital, so I looked it up and printed it out. Oh, can I visit him tomorrow? No, no, Bob. This is one of those Arkham Asylum-type hospitals. Digs isn't cuckoo? Uh, listen, boy. Maybe you should spend more time with your old best friend. You know, do we have a room? No, old best friend. You know, do we, Blair? Millhouse abandoned me. So why can't I go there?
Bart, if this is what I think it is, it's not a place we should ever, ever take a little boy. Then why is Digs there? Because it's his home forever. You know, Bart, just because Digs is a little different doesn't mean he's not a good person. I have about eight of them. So how do we fix them? Oh, Bart, Digs' problems don't have easy fixes. What kind of troop talk is this? Well, sometimes it helps to know people feel for you. Want a hug? You hug the bedpost, then I hug the bedpost. That way we never hug each other.
Come Saturday morning. I'm going away. Hey Simpson, I heard bird boy got a new cage. One with rubber bars. And with rubber bars. It's rubber. It's rubber. Rubber tubing. Rubber tubing. Yeah, and a rubber perch. Yeah, yeah, and I get it. It sucks. Really sucks. Rubber bird feeder. Making fun of the mentally ill. Real classy. But you guys were— we were what, Captain Sensitive? The rumors of my bonkitude have been greatly exaggerated. The rumors of my bonkitude have been greatly exaggerated. Don't exaggerate. Don't exaggerate.
DSM-5 indicates paranoid schizophrenia, but that work is mired in controversy. Mired. I know you just escaped. Were you cured out by a flock of Falcons? I got a one-day pass. Were Falcons involved in any way? I obtained the pass to enter the Springfield Falconry contest. Which is what Freedom and I were training for when we first met you. Oh great. Before anything else, let me just get closer to the door and say, How crazy are you? It will wear off. It will wear off. It will wear off. It wears off. Then I'll have Freedom tear you to shreds.
No fans, but when a crazy guy pretends to be crazy, it's not funny. You're discounting all talk radio. I want to return it. Excellent. Fly, my pit. Fly. Yes. Yes, you're back to Pukho. Yes. Why am I not surprised? The only sport you do is one where a bird brings you food. A Falcon's greatest joy is to serve its master. Ah! Fantzo! Once again, they must point out that you are not a parrot. Fantzo! Fantzo! Please have a shower! Ah! Shut up! What are you doing? We're up next.
When Freedom hits the air, you and I open all the cages. Um, with our minds? No, with this rope. I'm a messed-up kid. I'm not Magneto. Digs and Freedom! I'm going to have to wave at you about 5. He sure lives long. Be silent. I still can't hear you yelling. Tell me, kid Juliet. My bag is on fire! Hey honey, can I Primini fold myself?? I’m probably not going to get another one for quite a while. Wait! When will I see you? You can't quit the Falcon Reclob? It's all yours, Mr. President.
Well, I guess some delicate bird. Guess some delicate bird. Delicate. Delicate. Delicate species. Delicate species. These are safer in a cage. I had thought of it as a therapeutic milieu, but now “cage” is stuck in my head, so thanks. And thanks for being my friend. Bart! When I pushed you away, I was really pushing away the thought of losing you. How long did it take you to think that up? Two hours with a therapist. I'll take that. She came in on a Saturday. Mr. Kid's karate demonstration. He was going up a belt. Enough! Mom, you didn't cook the Falcon? Of course not. It's just stuck. Ugh! What kind of... Mmm! Mmm! Mmm! Mmm! Facipies, please.
