{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Happy}}
{{TB|Mr. Washington, you've been brought forward in time to the town of Springfield, in America.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|It seems to happen to ex-Presidents a lot.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|Forward in time? How old is America?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|Two hundred and forty-two years.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Serious‎}}
{{TB|You're kidding me, right? That's a joke? Because I told [[Thomas Jefferson|Jefferson]] I gave this country a decade. Tops.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|He was all: “Liberty is mankind's natural state!” And I was “Yada yada yada… ten years, chump. Bank on it.”}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|Still, it's cool to be wrong! So, tell me about this town.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon}}
{{TB|Springfield is named after its founder, [[Jebediah Springfield]].}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Deadpan}}
{{TB|You would've known him as 'Hans Sprungfeld' in your time.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Serious‎}}
{{TB|SPRUNGFELD?! THAT GUY HAS A TOWN NAMED AFTER HIM? Oh, man. Where is he?}}

{{TB|Professor Frink is trying to find a way to send you home. In the meantime…}}

{{TB|You know why America has a bicameral legislature, right?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Embarrassed}}
{{TB|Uh… because it's a good way to keep power from consolidating in one body?}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Serious‎}}
{{TB|Nope. Because when we were tossing around ideas for a new government-- just brain jamming, you know -- some idiot throws out the term “bicameral legislature.”}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious‎}}
{{TB|And everybody just latches onto it.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious‎}}
{{TB|You know that thing where everyone's trying to sound hip and smart by using the hot new term? So annoying!}}

{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|Nah.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|It'll always be America, so long as people continue to live free, toss their excrement in the streets, and hate the British.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Alarmed}}
{{TB|Actually [[England]] is our closest ally now.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Serious‎}}
{{TB|...}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|You want to repeat that, little lady?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Alarmed}}
{{TB|Uh… we've had a lot of time to repair relations…}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|“Repair relations”? With a country that is way more powerful than us?}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|AND wants nothing more than to make us her colony again?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Deadpan}}
{{TB|Well, first of all, our military is a lot bigger than theirs now.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}

{{TB|Okay, if our ships leave Boston tomorrow, we can reach England in two months.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|We'll rendezvous with Hessian mercenaries -- little girl, remind me to write a letter to Hessia, get that ball rolling.}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Alarmed}}
{{TB|Hessian mercenaries aren't the military force they once were…}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|We will then move inland and seize the royal saltpeter mines.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|I'd like to see King George try to fight a war without saltpeter. Heh-heh-heh…}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|With a combined force of 20,000 we will easily subdue all of England.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|What do you think, Lisa Simpson? An elegant plan, no?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Embarrassed}}
{{TB|You really think 20,000 men armed with muskets will do any good against tanks and machine guns and missiles?}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|If we have enough horses, yes.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}

{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Sad‎}}
{{TB|What's happened to the England-detesting nation of proud Limey-stranglers I love? Where's our fighting spirit?}}
{{Tapped Out Lisa Icon|Embarrassed}}
{{TB|Seriously. The English are our friends. Very nice people. Good music.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|And the most annoying thing?}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious‎}}
{{TB|Everyone's just falling all over themselves to thank me: “You're the Father of Our Country!” “Thank you, George Washington!”}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious‎}}
{{TB|If you love me so much, get in the boat and help me stick a cannon ball in [[Big Ben]].}}

{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon|Serious‎}}
{{TB|Did you know there are guys on the Supreme Court who think laws should be based on what me and my friends were thinking about more than two centuries ago?}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎|Serious}}
{{TB|We didn't have electricity. And trust me -- most of the time when we were writing constitutions and laws, we were thinking about what to order for dinner.}}
{{Tapped Out George Washington Icon‎}}
{{TB|I'm just a guy. And I'm really happy that America worked out so well. That rocks. But again, just a guy.}}
