Flay Me To The Moon

Title Pun: Fly Me to the Moon
Simpsons Episode: "Homer the Heretic", "Another Simpsons Clip Show"

Synopsis: Scratchy reads of a space launch in the paper. Itchy sneaks into his house, and pulls his tongue out like a fishing-line, runs outside and ties it to the spaceship. It takes off, with Scratchy's tongue unwinding to enormous proportions until the vessel orbits the moon twice and ties a knot around it with the tongue. This pulls the moon towards the earth, and Scratchy only noticing now, panics and hides in his closet. The moon crushes his house with him inside. Inside NASA headquarters, 'Itchy' mice celebrate a successful mission and drink champagne. This episode is one of the most popular and well-known, being shown in two episodes. In the episode "Another Simpsons Clip Show", Marge asks whether Bart and Lisa have seen this episode before Bart replies "It's a new episode", referring to the fact that the episode had been shown before.

    Above a hazy tree-and-farmhouse cluster
    As you might try a jewel in your hair.
