Homer returns later with changes in his behavior: he no longer strangles Bart when provoked, he refuses to eat pork chops or drink beer, and he appears to prostrate himself on a mat while facing the Middle East.

Overhearing Chief Wiggum and Apu talk about a rumored terrorist in Springfield, Lisa suspects Homer was kidnapped and indoctrinated to carry out an attack.

Leaving, Annie takes a dose of medication for her bipolar disorder, turning the dreary city block into a vivid rainbow daze.
