"Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious", also known as "Simpsoncalifragilisticexpialad'ohcious", is the thirteenth episode of Season 8 (originally going to be an episode for Season 7).

Synopsis[]

The Simpson family get a nanny after Marge starts losing her hair from stress.

Full Story[]

While watching Krusty the Clown's disastrous comedy special Krusty Komedy Klassics (which starts off with Krusty realizing that the initials to his special are the same ones for the notoriously racist society, the Ku Klux Klan and gets worse from there), Marge is being treated like a servant by her husband and children, who blatantly refuse to do anything for themselves to the point that they won't get up to get themselves drinks (Bart even makes rasping sounds to guilt Marge into getting it for him).

Soon Marge's hair starts to fall out, and Dr. Hibbert can't figure out what's wrong, that is until a call to the doctor's office by Bart and Lisa (who still refuses to lift a finger), asking their mother to get them glasses of milk despite being across town makes another clump of hair fall out, causing the doctor to realize that the hair loss is from stress. The family seeks a nanny to help out at the house, but Homer attacks two applicants, thinking they're men in drag because he saw the movie, Mrs. Doubtfire while Kearney (despite Homer liking him and gladly telling him where he keeps his liquor) isn't a good fit due to how violent he is with kids. A nanny named Shary Bobbins (parody of the fictional nanny Mary Poppins), flies out of the sky with her umbrella, lands on their front doorstep and applies for the job.

She then helps the children with chores and looks after them while she sings songs to them. She even ran into her former fiancé, Groundskeeper Willie as a parody of Mary Poppins' chimney sweep/one man band/sidewalk drawing friend, Bert. Once the family starts to behave properly, she leaves, but the family immediately becomes dysfunctional again, prompting her to return. After a while, she discovers how lazy and useless they are and gets upset. The family explains, in song, that she can't change them and they're happy just the way they are. As she flies off, Lisa wonders if they'll ever see her again. Homer assures her that they will. Unfortunately, up in the sky we watch Shary being sucked in the jet engine of a plane, then shredded into pieces, which the family are unaware of.
