Title Pun: Four Weddings and a Funeral
Simpsons Episode: "A Star Is Burns"
Year: 1995
Synopsis: Scratchy is getting married to a girl cat. During the ceremony Itchy replaces the bride with one made entirely of explosives, and lights the fuses. We see Scratchy kissing his newlywed wife, feeding her with wedding cake. After this we see Scratchy sitting on a sofa next to his wife, while two children, also made entirely of explosives are playing on the floor. Finally, we can see old Scratchy, with his wife, still fuses ignited, sitting calmly on the porch of an old folks home in rocking chairs. His wife finally explodes, taking Scratchy with her. Old Itchy runs to the scene, laughing at Scratchy's burnt remains, but later grasps his chest, grunts and falls to the floor, dead. This is considered one of the episodes in which Itchy dies.
This short won the Springfield Film Festival Award for Outstanding Animated Short.

Famous quotes containing the words funerals and/or wedding:
“Nothing is dead: men feign themselves dead, and endure mock funerals and mournful obituaries, and there they stand looking out of the window, sound and well, in some new and strange disguise.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In marriage there are no manners to keep up, and beneath the wildest accusations no real criticism. Each is familiar with that ancient child in the other who may erupt again.... We are not ridiculous to ourselves. We are ageless. That is the luxury of the wedding ring.”
—Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)
