-[[Bart]] gets an A+ on an Astronomy quiz, and the [[Simpson family]] celebrate by having dinner at [[The Singing Sirloin]], where the singing waitstaff sing "Happy First A" for him (to the tune of "{{w|Happy Birthday to You|Happy Birthday}}"). Bart tells the story of how he got the A: He was alone in the classroom when [[Principal Skinner]] and [[Mrs. Krabappel]] burst into the room, having a make-out session. Bart hid in the closet and intently concentrated on a chart of the Solar System to distract himself from the sounds they were making. Later, when he took the test, he found that the answers were stuck in his brain. Back in the present, finishing his story, Bart describes it as "like a whole different kind of cheating".

-The family rejoice in Bart's achievement, but when it comes time to pay for their dinner, they are unable to pay the bill due to [[Homer]]'s credit card being rejected. The family try to dine and dash, but are caught and end up having to play {{w|Mariachi}} music to pay their dinner bill.

 When they run out of gas on the way home, [[Marge]] sees that they're in financial trouble, and suggests they should see a financial planner. They visit [[Let's Get Fiscal]], where [[Lindsey Naegle]] tells them that their financial problems are due to Homer's being too stupid to follow a budget, and the only solution is more money—even declaring bankruptcy several times won't make them financially solvent. When Naegle asks for her fee, Marge and Homer do a repeat of their dashing attempt at The Singing Sirloin, but this time they succeed.

 Lisa isn't proud that her dad is selling his dignity away, and tells him he needs to stand up to Mr. Burns. Homer succeeds in doing so, in spite of Burns' tempting him with more money. Homer is then left wondering what he can do with all the money he now realizes is ill-gotten gains, and Lisa suggests that he donate it to charity. Homer goes to [[Costington's]] and donates all the money to buy toys for poor children. The [[Mr. Costington|store owner]] is moved by this gesture and makes Homer the [[Santa Claus]] for the store's big [[Thanksgiving]] Day parade. Homer's job in the parade is to wave from his float, yell "Ho, ho, ho! Merry Christmas!", and throw presents to the crowd.
-Thanksgiving Day turns out to be a beautiful day for a parade, as commented on by co-hosts [[Kent Brockman]] and {{ch|Leeza Gibbons}} during the parade's TV coverage. Homer is well-received as Santa Claus, even though he mixes up his line and yells "Merry everyone!" Burns, however, sees the parade as the perfect opportunity to pull a prank on the whole town. He pulls up beside Homer in another float (a pirate ship with the words "HAPPY PRANKSGIVING" on the side) and makes Homer an offer: one million dollars if he'll throw fish guts onto the crowd instead of presents. Homer is torn between the money and the fact that "Santa can't be evil!"
