"The Winter of His Content" is the fourteenth episode of the 25th season of the American animated sitcom ''The Simpsons'', and the 544th episode of the series. The episode was written by Kevin Curran and aired on March 16, 2014, on Fox. In the episode, when the Retirement Castle is closed for health violations, Marge invites Grampa and two other old people to live at the Simpsons' house, only to get frustrated with Homer embracing the "old person lifestyle". Meanwhile, Bart defends Nelson's decision to wear his mother's underwear, and ends up part of a bully gathering a la ''The Warriors''. ==Plot== Marge and Homer have a make-out session as they arrive home from their date. As the couple pays off the babysitter and ignores the overdue bills and phone calls, Lisa's explanation that Grampa getting kicked out of the elderly home finally puts a damper on the couple's romantic night. At the retirement home, we find out that the place is in violation of several codes; for instance, the soda machine dispenses rats and there are mannequin nurses coming out of the home. Grandpa has to go home with the family until the retirement home is cleaned. However, when Grandpa's two pals Jasper Beardley and the Old Jewish Man from the home are left without anyone picking them up, Marge takes them in despite Homer's difference of opinion. At school, Bart and his classmates undress for gym class. Nelson reluctantly changes, but his fellow school students laugh at him when they find out he is wearing women's underwear. The laughter does not cease until Bart also discloses he wears his father's hand-me-downs from gorillas. After the class applauds Bart for defending Nelson, Nelson and Bart become close friends. With Grandpa and his friends almost dying with every activity, Homer almost dies when he sees the electric bill before Marge revives him. The negligence going around in treating Grandpa prompts Lisa to urge Homer to be nicer to Grandpa because that will be how his kids treat him when he gets old. Homer, nevertheless, makes a point to say that you don't see him acknowledging the existence of his own grandfather. Meanwhile, Bart receives a message wrapped around a rock thrown at his bedroom window. When he slides down the drain pipe to meet the rock thrower, he is kidnapped into the night, even with Chief Wiggum and Lou watching them. When Nelson and the other bullies make their identities known to Bart, they name him honorary bully and give him a necklace of retainers. While Bart does not seem too keen on becoming a bully, Homer feels the opposite when Grandpa and his buddies induct Homer into the "club" after Homer gets an early breakfast with them. Following a trip to the mall for exercise, Grandpa pulls Homer's pants up to make them high-waisted. During a game of Bingo, an elderly lady hits on Homer in front of Grandpa, who warns his Homer to stay away from those women who just want a chicken dinner out of him. Homer is in bed with Marge with a chicken meal and turns up the thermostat in the room because he's too cold. Marge also notices that Homer's wearing sock garters. Meanwhile, Bart and the bullies prepare for the Bully Summit held at Krustyland. Chester, the leader of all bullies, has called for the meeting. All bullies are required to turn in their weapons, but Bart gets sidetracked and forgets to turn in his slingshot. When an elder, more rebellious bully uses Bart's slingshot during Chester's speech, the shot is blamed on Bart, considering he's the only one in possession of the slingshot. A hunt, based on The Warriors, begins to track down Bart as the perpetrator. Bart, Dolph, Nelson, Kearney Zzyzwicz, and Jimbo Jones hide in the Ferris Wheel and try to wait it out. The Bully that shot Chester is on the wheel, too so they jump off and run. After the S.A.T. Preppers fail to stop them, Bart and the Bullies are running for their lives now down the street, chased by all the other bully groups in a giant torn up bus. They finally make it back to the subway, but the Baseball Furries are there waiting. Bart uses his slingshot to break the street light and distract them. One stays behind, however and Nelson sacrifices himself for the others. The boys make it back to Springfield just as the sun is rising. Bart and the Bullies aren’t the only ones on the beach though. Homer and the old guys just so happen to be taking a stroll too. Homer sees his son in trouble. They have to help them, except the old guys don’t really want to and start making excuses. He rushes over and punches the New Bully in the face. The New Bully proclaims he’s never been in a fight. He whines and runs off, and Homer and the gang all head home. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Winter of His Content」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
