"'''All Singing, All Dancing'''" is the eleventh episode of [[Season 9]] (originally going to be the last episode of said season, but "[[Natural Born Kissers]]" took its place). 
== Plot ==
 
[[Homer Simpson|Homer]] rents the family the movie ''Paint Your Wagon''. He and [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] expect to see a violent Western starring Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and someone who appears to be Lee Van Cleef; the truth is, it is a musical. This causes Homer to dispose the tape and condemn singing, but Marge says that Homer often sings.
 
   
  +
==Synopsis==
Ultimately, this allows clips of the following songs from these episodes to be shown:
 
  +
Anticipating a bloody Clint Eastwood-Lee Marvin shoot-'em-up, [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] and [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] are horrified to discover that their video rental, ''Paint Your Wagon'', is actually a musical. Several song and dance moments from seasons past are recalled.
   
  +
==Full Story==
*"Baby on Board" from "[[Homer's Barbershop Quartet]]";
 
  +
===Act 1===
*"We Put the Spring in [[Springfield (The Simpsons)|Springfield]]" from "[[Bart After Dark]]";
 
 
[[Homer Simpson|Homer]] rents the movie ''Paint Your Wagon ''for the family to watch. He and [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] expect to see a violent Western movie starring Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and someone who appears to be Lee Van Cleef. However, the truth is that the movie is actually a musical. This causes Homer to dispose the tape and condemn singing, but [[Marge Simpson|Marge]] says that Homer often sings.
*"Springfield, Springfield" from "[[Boy-Scoutz N the Hood]]";
 
*"Who Needs the [[Kwik-E-Mart]]?" from "[[Homer and Apu]]";
 
*[[Krusty]]'s version of "Send In the Clowns" from "[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]";
 
*"See My Vest" from "[[Two Dozen and One Greyhounds]]";
 
*"The Monorail Song" from "[[Marge vs. the Monorail]]";
 
*"In the Garden of Eden" (really [[In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida]] by [[Iron Butterfly]]) from "[[Bart Sells His Soul]]";
 
*"We Do" from "[[Homer the Great]]".
 
   
  +
The [[Simpson family]] then starts their debate, which leads to clips of Homer singing "[[Baby on Board]]" with [[Seymour Skinner|Principal Skinner]], [[Barney Gumble|Barney]] and [[Apu Nahasapeemapetilon|Apu]] in "[[Homer's Barbershop Quartet]]", and "[[We Put the Spring in Springfield]]" with Bart, [[Belle]] and other [[Springfield]] citizens in "[[Bart After Dark]]".
The family's singing motivates [[Snake Jailbird]] to come in; he is bothered by the Simpsons' singing and constantly tries to kill them, ironically doing his own singing. During the credits, Snake's voice can be heard trying to prevent the theme music from playing in the background, having grown annoyed of music over the course of the episode.
 
   
  +
After that, Bart sings an insult about Homer's singing, which leads Homer to [[Homer Strangles Bart (or someone)|strangle Bart]] when Marge sings that Bart had also sung "and danced like a girl". This leads to when Bart sang "[[Springfield, Springfield]]" with [[Milhouse Van Houten|Milhouse]] in "[[Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood]]". When this flashback is done, [[Snake Jailbird]] jumps into the house through an open window and warns the family not to move or he shall blow their heads off.
==Trivia==
 
*All of the musical numbers in this episode, with the exception of "We Put the Spring in Springfield," are on the soundtrack ''[[Songs in the Key of Springfield]]''. "We Put the Spring in Springfield" instead appears in ''[[Go Simpsonic with The Simpsons]]''.
 
*The first shots by Snake are heard over [[Phil Hartman]]'s name in the credits (Hartman was shot dead by his wife as he slept, four months after this episode first aired). While technically this is his last episode produced, his only part in this episode is a clip from [[Marge vs. the Monorail]].
 
*When this episode is shown in [[broadcast syndication|syndication]], the endings to the first two song clips are cut out. Sometimes, the credits also cut off right after Snake's first shots.
 
*Bart no longer likes Burns' "See My Vest" song, unlike in [[Two Dozen and One Greyhounds]].
 
*At one point, towards the end of the episode, there is a banner saying "Simpsons Clip Show" and the episodes production code which is (5F24), an example of [[fourth wall]]-breaking.
 
*When Lisa lists all the people who sing (Krusty, Mr Burns and Apu), they consist of all the male voice actors ([[Dan Castellaneta]], [[Harry Shearer]], and [[Hank Azaria]], respectively).
 
*In the Latin American dubbing this is the first time when songs have been dubbed as well, in the original episodes the songs are broadcast in English without subtitles and the rest of the audio in Spanish. It also happens at Brazilian dubbing.
 
*In the Latin American dubbing Bart's voice has been replaced for another person, the person who dubbed Bart for the past 9 seasons would later come back on the 15th season, ironically when the rest of the cast have left and been replaced.

{{Season 9}}

As Snake holds the Simpson family hostage at gunpoint, Marge and Homer sing-beg him to spare their kids. Snake then sings that for hostage purposes, they are too weird and leaves. After Snake leaves, [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] sings about many other citizens of [[Springfield]] who can sing. This leads to clips of them and Apu singing "[[Who Needs the Kwik-E-Mart?]]" in "[[Homer and Apu]]", [[Krusty the Clown|Krusty]] and [[Melvin Van Horne|Sideshow Mel]] singing their version of "[[Send in the Clowns (Song)|Send in the Clowns]]" in "[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]", and Lisa and Bart watching [[Charles Montgomery Burns|Mr. Burns]] sing "[[See My Vest]]" in [[Two Dozen and One Greyhounds]]".

After those flashbacks, Snake suddenly returns through the window, singing that he got annoyed with their music from his first visit and plans to kill them all for getting a song stuck in his head. Homer then says that he should have closed the window.

===Act 3===
  +
Snake prepares to shoot the Simpson family, but his rifle is empty, so he leaves again to get extra ammo. The family continues to sing, which leads to another flashback at three more musical numbers: [[Lyle Lanley]] and the citizens singing "[[The Monorail Song]]" in "[[Marge vs. the Monorail]]", the Springfield citizens at church singing "In the Garden of Eden" by I. Ron Butterfly (actually "[[In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida]]" by [[Iron Butterfly]]) in "[[Bart Sells His Soul]]", and Homer with the other [[Stonecutters]] singing "[[We Do (The Stonecutters' Song)|We Do]]" in "[[Homer the Great]]".

  +
Homer sings of being convinced, but when Snake hops through the window once again and starts singing that he is finally going to kill them, Marge says that they are finished singing. Snake then tells her that he has no reason to kill them, so he leaves once again. The Simpson family then prepare for dinner while Marge closes the window and hums. Snake, who just heard Marge's humming, fires a bullet at the window, making the glass break, to which Marge says "Okay! Okay! Sorry!" During the end credits, Snake is heard shooting the theme song, making it stop for a few seconds, then play very quietly afterwards. Snake still hears it, and shoots at it again. Finally, when the [[Gracie Films]] logo is seen, he even shoots the music there and says, "You, too, Gracie music dude! Gaw!"

Homer about the film

"All Singing, All Dancing" is the eleventh episode of Season 9 (originally going to be the last episode of said season, but "Natural Born Kissers" took its place). 

Synopsis

Anticipating a bloody Clint Eastwood-Lee Marvin shoot-'em-up, Bart and Homer are horrified to discover that their video rental, Paint Your Wagon, is actually a musical. Several song and dance moments from seasons past are recalled.

Full Story

Act 1

Homer rents the movie Paint Your Wagon for the family to watch. He and Bart expect to see a violent Western movie starring Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and someone who appears to be Lee Van Cleef. However, the truth is that the movie is actually a musical. This causes Homer to dispose the tape and condemn singing, but Marge says that Homer often sings.

The Simpson family then starts their debate, which leads to clips of Homer singing "Baby on Board" with Principal Skinner, Barney and Apu in "Homer's Barbershop Quartet", and "We Put the Spring in Springfield" with Bart, Belle and other Springfield citizens in "Bart After Dark".

After that, Bart sings an insult about Homer's singing, which leads Homer to strangle Bart when Marge sings that Bart had also sung "and danced like a girl". This leads to when Bart sang "Springfield, Springfield" with Milhouse in "Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood". When this flashback is done, Snake Jailbird jumps into the house through an open window and warns the family not to move or he shall blow their heads off.

Act 2

As Snake holds the Simpson family hostage at gunpoint, Marge and Homer sing-beg him to spare their kids. Snake then sings that for hostage purposes, they are too weird and leaves. After Snake leaves, Lisa sings about many other citizens of Springfield who can sing. This leads to clips of them and Apu singing "Who Needs the Kwik-E-Mart?" in "Homer and Apu", Krusty and Sideshow Mel singing their version of "Send in the Clowns" in "Krusty Gets Kancelled", and Lisa and Bart watching Mr. Burns sing "See My Vest" in Two Dozen and One Greyhounds".

After those flashbacks, Snake suddenly returns through the window, singing that he got annoyed with their music from his first visit and plans to kill them all for getting a song stuck in his head. Homer then says that he should have closed the window.

Act 3

Snake prepares to shoot the Simpson family, but his rifle is empty, so he leaves again to get extra ammo. The family continues to sing, which leads to another flashback at three more musical numbers: Lyle Lanley and the citizens singing "The Monorail Song" in "Marge vs. the Monorail", the Springfield citizens at church singing "In the Garden of Eden" by I. Ron Butterfly (actually "In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida" by Iron Butterfly) in "Bart Sells His Soul", and Homer with the other Stonecutters singing "We Do" in "Homer the Great". 

Homer sings of being convinced, but when Snake hops through the window once again and starts singing that he is finally going to kill them, Marge says that they are finished singing. Snake then tells her that he has no reason to kill them, so he leaves once again. The Simpson family then prepare for dinner while Marge closes the window and hums. Snake, who just heard Marge's humming, fires a bullet at the window, making the glass break, to which Marge says "Okay! Okay! Sorry!" During the end credits, Snake is heard shooting the theme song, making it stop for a few seconds, then play very quietly afterwards. Snake still hears it, and shoots at it again. Finally, when the Gracie Films logo is seen, he even shoots the music there and says, "You, too, Gracie music dude! Gaw!"
