Eeny Teeny Maya Moe

"Eeny Teeny Maya Moe" is the sixteenth episode of the twentieth season of the American animated television series The Simpsons.

Moe is cleaning up the bar for a date, and finds out he actually has a window, which was previously obscured by layers of grime.

Crushed by grief, Moe consults the advice of Lenny and Carl, who advise him to do something risky to win Maya back.

Maya stops Moe just before the surgery, as she wants someone who sees her as "beautiful" not "short", and who does not need to cut himself down to her size in order to love her.

[citation needed] Moe references people that live in trees, particularly Tarzan and The Berenstain Bears.

[4] Also, upon learning that Maya finds him attractive, Moe joyfully utters the nonsense phrase "Oh, frabjulous day, calloo callay!"

When Moe turns on the television in Maya's house, it is showing a scene from Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory featuring the Oompa Loompas singing.

When Moe meets Maya in person he tears down an advertisement for dwarf tossing and throws out a copy of Little Women.

This week, The Simpsons hit a nice middle ground, spending most of the episode on Moe’s short-lived relationship but backing it up with a Homer-Maggie-Marge B-plot.

[7] John Frink was nominated for a Writers Guild of America Award in the Animation category in 2010 for writing the episode.
