 == Plot ==
-At [[Springfield Elementary School]], the circuit breaker overloads from too many electronics plugged in. This sets fire to a large can of [[Iraq War Surplus Mayonnaise]] in the basement, which explodes. The school then stinks of eggs and vinegar and has to be closed for weeks whilst the smell dissipates. That night, [[Homer]] is watching late night television when {{Ch|Shaquille O'Neal}} comes on to advertise a product. Homer wants to buy it, but Marge convinces him not to as he's already bought many useless products from late night shopping adverts in the past. Homer then falls asleep on the couch.

-The next morning, [[Bart]] and [[Lisa]] wake Homer up and tell him that they need to be home schooled as the school is closed. The kids of [[Springfield]] do their lessons for the day until they get to history, where they learn about the collapse of the [[Great Springfield Gazebo]]. The mayor at the time, who commissioned the building of the Gazebo, was [[Eustace Van Houten]]. After the Gazebo collapsed, due to the low-quality bracing used on it, Eustace became a pariah. Kirk and [[Milhouse]] were disappointed with learning this as it made their family look bad. At [[Moe's Tavern]], Homer and Kirk both complain about their problems. [[Moe]] tells Homer to invent something to sell and make his wasted money back that way, and tells Kirk to stand up for himself.

-When the school reopens, Kirk crashes the assembly to demand they stop teaching about the Great Springfield Gazebo disaster. The school then holds a meeting to discuss this and hear from both sides. Kirk drums up a lot of support from people who don't want the bad parts of history taught, whilst a counter group forms to try and keep the teaching of history in school. Eventually, the meeting is called to a close with no decision made. After this, Kirk becomes respected by the people who supported his views. As the Simpsons are driving home, Homer is struck by inspiration for the product he will make to sell to people. Later, he shows the family the advert for his new product, the [[Me-Shirt]], which is a shirt made with copper fibers that displays different slogans on.

-Near [[Christmas]], the town celebrates Springfield Egg Nog Days. Kirk and his mob then crash the event to demand they ban the teaching of the Great Springfield Gazebo disaster once more. A counter-protest led by the Prince family also shows up and an argument breaks out. [[Mayor Quimby]] tells [[Superintendent Chalmers]] to just ban the topic as he thinks that Kirk's group will turn violent. Chalmers reluctantly agrees and Kirk finally wins the argument. Three weeks later, Kirk has become a dictator in Springfield and rules over the town. Meanwhile, Homer's Me-Shirt business took off and he opened a store, [[Homer's House of Copper-ganda]], which supports Kirk.

-Marge tries to talk Kirk out of continuing his crusade against history and knowledge. However, Kirk decides to open up a new Gazebo instead. As the people of Springfield celebrate Kirk, he plays an electric guitar. The electricity from the guitar interacts with the Me-Shirts and forms a giant electrical field. The electrical field starts to destroy the Gazebo and causes everyone to flee. After the Gazebo collapses, Homer tells the townspeople that they can try to ignore history, but you can't ignore science. In the future, the story of the Second Great Gazebo Disaster is being told by a teacher. A group of parents then burst into the classroom and disintegrate the teacher for teaching a horrible story to the kids.
