The Big Snit

A married couple plays a game of Scrabble that has stalemated as the husband is unable to come up with a word.

The two go their separate ways; he watches his favourite TV show, "Sawing for Teens," while his wife works on cleaning the house.

As the husband awakens, he looks out the window to see that the streets have descended into chaos, and he returns to the game board, unaware of the global cataclysm, and sneaking a peek at his wife's letters.

[2] The couple, unaware of their apparent deaths, marvels at the beauty of the scene and decides to return to their Scrabble game.

[9] The Big Snit inspired a Scrabble scene in the second episode of The Simpsons' first season, "Bart the Genius".
