My Sister, My Sitter

The script was written to focus on the relationship between Bart and Lisa and the episode has further been used to discuss the difficulties in letting children babysit themselves.

Bart's pranks anger Lisa so much that she lunges at him, causing him to fall down the stairs, dislocating his shoulder and leaving a large bump on his head.

To make his condition worse, Bart locks himself in his room and repeatedly bangs his head against the door, eventually knocking himself unconscious.

Instead, she takes Bart to Dr. Nick Riviera's clinic in a wheelbarrow, bringing Maggie along in a pet carrier because the coffee ice cream has overstimulated her.

After encountering Chief Wiggum whilst he is on patrol, she loses control of the wheelbarrow, and it rolls down a cliff into a muddy river — in front of aghast onlookers at the Squidport.

The crowd assumes Lisa is on drugs, has murdered Bart, and is about to drown the caged Maggie, and accuse her of bad babysitting.

The next day, Bart had his injuries been treated, he finds Lisa in her room and apologizes to her for causing the ordeal and ruining her babysitting business.

Much to her delight, she receives babysitting requests from Hibbert and Ned, who brush off accusations against Lisa of her supposed attempt on Bart's life because they cannot find any other sitters.
