The family includes loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and baby Maggie. Other Springfield residents include the family's religious neighbor, Ned Flanders, family physician Dr. Hibbert, Moe the bartender and police chief Clancy Wiggum.

When Bart causes Springfield to lose the Olympic Games, he is forced to volunteer at a retirement home.

Marge's rage against the new toll road system somehow leads to the discovery of a frozen mailman and his 40-year-old mail.

Homer and the kids take depressed Marge on a surprise trip to Barnacle Bay.
