Son, this is the only time I'm ever gonna say this. It is not okay to lose.
|
You brought food...
|
Stay, stay. Good dog. Now, keep your head down.
|
No, not you. I'm talking to the boy. Keep your head down. Follow through...
|
Okay, that didn't work. This time move your head and don't follow through.
|
Oh, man.
|
What're you doing? That putter is to you what a bat is to a baseball player, what a violin is to the guy tha...the violin guy. Now, c'mon, give your putter a name.
|
Come on, give it a name.
|
Mr. Putter.
|
Do you wanna try a little harder, son? Come on, give it a girl's name.
|
Your putter's name is Charlene!
|
It just is. That's why.
|
Now, this is a picture of your enemy, Todd Flanders. Every day I want you to spend fifteen minutes staring at it and concentrating on how much you hate him and how glorious it will be when you and Charlene annihilate him.
|
Who's Charlene?
|
I'll show you who Charlene is! Now start hating!
|
Hi, Bart.
|
Homer, I couldn't help overhearing you warp Bart's mind.
|
Well, I'm worried that you're making too big a deal of this silly little kiddie golf tournament.
|
But, Marge, this is our big chance to show up the Flanderses.
|
Well, I'm sure it is, but why do we want to do that?
|
Because sometimes the only way you can feel good about yourself is by making someone else look bad. And I'm tired of making other people feel good about themselves.
|
Hi, Bart. What're you doing?
|
Lis, what do you call those guys in chess that don't matter?
|
Absolutely. Eeeeeeeer!
|
Well, a blockaded bishop is of little value, but I think you're referring to a pawn.
|
Right. I am a pawn.
|
I know. It's times like this that I'm thankful Dad has little to no interest in almost everything I do. Bart, I think I can help you.
|
Our journey begins here at the library.
|
Hi, Lisa.
|
Hi, Mrs. Norton.
|
Hi, Lisa.
|
Hi, Ralph.
|
Hi, Lisa.
|
Hey, gang. Okay, Bart, this is the card catalog.
|
Let's see, "golf"... Anecdotes, Eisenhower and, Fashion, Humor, Japanese Obsession With... ah, here it is. Putting.
|
And, finally, the most important book of all, The Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu.
|
Lisa, we can't afford all these books.
|
Bart, we're just gonna borrow them.
|
Oh, heh, heh. Gotcha.
|
I want you to shut off the logical part of your mind.
|
Embrace nothingness.
|
You got it.
|
Become like an uncarved stone.
|
Bart! You're just pretending to know what I'm talking about.
|
Well, it's very frustrating.
|
I'll bet.
|
Bart, I have a riddle for you: What's the sound of one hand clapping?
|
Piece of cake.
|
No, Bart. It's a three-thousand-year-old riddle with no answer. It's supposed to clear your mind of conscious thought.
|
No answer? Lisa, listen up.
|
Let's try another one: If a tree falls in the woods and no one's around, does it make a sound?
|
I said NOW!
|
But Bart, how can a sound exist if there's no one there to hear it?
|
Woooooooo!
|
It is time.
|
The basis of this game seems to be simple geometry. All you have to do is hit the ball here.
|
I can't believe it... You've actually found a practical use for geometry.
|
Bart! What're you doing? Get down from there before the neighbors see --
|
Hey, Simpson.
|
Flanders, I don't care what this looks like, Bart's gonna mop the floor with your son's ugly butt.
|
Well, sir, may the best man win.
|
Ah, "may the best man win". The mating call of the loser.
|
Now, just a minute, Simpson. I think my son has a very good chance.
|
Oh, yeah? Wanna bet?
|
Yeah, well, I'm not a betting man.
|
Oh, I'm a chicken, am I?
|
That's right!
|
All right, how's this for a wager? A batch of your wife's delicious blueberry muffins against one of my wife's homemade wind chimes!
|
What, are you afraid to make a real bet?
|
No, I just --
|
You know, Simpson, you're starting to annoy me.
|
How about this Henny Penny? If Bart wins tomorrow, you have to mow my lawn.
|
All right, and if Todd wins, you have to mow my lawn! And do a decent job of it, for a change!
|
Better yet, you have to mow my lawn in your wife's Sunday dress.
|
You have yourself a bet, you jackaninny!
|
Read that back to me, Marge.
|
The father of the loser mows the lawn --
|
Eh, eh, just a minute. "Loser" is such a harsh word. Couldn't we just say "the boy who doesn't win"?
|
Oh man. Fine.
|
The father of the boy who doesn't win has to mow the lawn in his wife's Sunday dress.
|
There you go.
|
Now I suppose you both have to sign this. I hope blood won't be necessary.
|
I'm game if you are, Flanders.
|
Good gravy, what have I done?
|
Keep your left arm straight, Bart... rotate your shoulders...
|
Look, son, all I'm asking is that you try.
|
Okay, I'll try.
|
Anybody can try! I want you to win!
|
Homer?!
|
Marge, give me your honest opinion. This? Or this?
|
Good morning, son! Oh, by the way, today's the day of the big tournament, and you'd better win!
|
See you downstairs, boy.
|
Heh heh... that crazy Marmaduke...
|
Eighth hole.
|
Aim for the Octopus' third tentacle.
|
Twelfth hole.
|
Bank it off the pink tombstone.
|
Nirvana.
|
A state of bliss attained through the extinction of the self.
|
Here you go, Bart. A lumberjack's breakfast for my little golfer.
