 The episode was scheduled to be the season 29 premiere. However, "[[The Serfsons]]" took its place and the episode aired the week after.<ref>[https://twitter.com/AlJean/status/899723233494130688 Al Jean's Twitter]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/AlJean/status/894677508813017088 Al Jean's Twitter]</ref> On October 12, [[Matt Selman]] tweeted a video of a cut opening scene from the episode. The scene sees a dream in Homer's head where he's on a show called "Dream Date". He has three women to choose from; the friendly stewardess who winked at him 23 years ago, [[She-Hulk]] or the sexy ketchup bottle from the commercial he likes. Homer chooses the ketchup bottle, but then She-Hulk smashes her apart. Homer and She-Hulk then go out on a date, using the broken bottle of ketchup to dip food in.<ref>[https://twitter.com/mattselman/status/918582362946048000 Matt Selman on Twitter - "Springfield Splendor deleted opening scene"]</ref>

 After having a nightmare about lockers at [[Springfield Elementary School|school]], [[Lisa]] runs to [[Homer]] and [[Marge]]'s bed. Lisa has had the nightmare four nights in a row and due to Homer having used all their insurance-covered counseling sessions, they take her to the [[Springfield Community College]], where the students practice on people for a fraction of the cost.
-Homer takes [[Bart]] to get groomed like a dog, while {{ap|Annette|Springfield Splendor}} talks to Lisa, and she suggests art therapy, to draw a typical day for her in comic book form. Back home, Lisa is frustrated at her bad drawings, so Marge draws for her whilst Lisa tells her what to draw.

 Lisa takes the drawings to the college, but loses them on the steps outside. [[Kumiko Albertson|Kumiko]] finds them and sells them at the [[The Android's Dungeon & Baseball Card Shop]] as a graphic novel, called ''[[Sad Girl]]''. Lisa and Marge complain to [[Comic Book Guy]] and Kumiko, but when they see that people are buying the books, Lisa is happy and stops Kumiko from burning them.
