 == Plot ==
-The big TV companies make a plan to make a new disease, named [[House Cat Flu]], that will force people to be scared and watch TV for updates on the crisis. After Homer threatens to burn everything the cat has touched, Marge tells him that here is a vaccination to the flu and they travel to the hospital.

After Homer threatens to burn everything the cat has touched, Marge tells him that there is a vaccination to the flu and they travel to the hospital.
-As the townspeople wait in a long line to receive the vaccine, which is being rationed to one child per family, Mr. Burns drives directly to the front of the line instead of waiting for the others to finish getting their vaccine and demands 37 doses: one for himself, one for [[Smithers]] and 35 for his dogs, even though they are immune to the disease, as they would see him take it and also want some. This draws glares from the townspeople, followed by open hatred when Burns drives over some boxes containing the town's entire vaccine supply, wasting the vaccine by spilling it onto the street.

This draws glares from the townspeople, followed by open hatred when Burns drives over some boxes containing the town's entire vaccine supply, wasting the vaccine by spilling it onto the street.
 After [[Mr. Burns' doctor]] gives him the vaccine, he tells him that Burns is dying and that he only has 5 or 6 weeks to live. Mr. Burns tries to take his own life by jumping off a cliff but bounces off things, including an airplane. He then lands on the ground in a forest. In the morning, Bart is walking around poking things with his "poop stick". He pokes Mr. Burns and he wakes up again, with no memory at all. Bart takes him home after he almost gets his tongue pulled out by a bird.
-Bart tries to hide Mr. Burns in his room before he runs away from his bath into the living room. The Simpsons then take him to the rest of the town where they decide to take it in turns with Mr. Burns where they can take revenge on him. They make a [[Mr. Burns revenge rota|rota]] for who gets Burns and when. After a while of arguing over who's turn it is to get Burns, he is returned to Homer for his turn again. However, Homer is getting bored of Burns and lets Lisa take him. Lisa takes him to [[Burns Manor|his Mansion]] where he sees a picture of him on a throne of skulls and remembers everything.

-Burns later comes and picks Smithers up and takes him back with him. The two then fly a helicopter above [[Springfield]] and reveal to the townspeople that he plans to drop a [[dome]] on Springfield in revenge for the things the townspeople done to him. Unfortunately, the townspeople reveal that [[Trappuccino|it has already been done before]]. [[Lou]] also states that they could always just dig out from it, although that never occurred to anyone before. He then realizes that he had survived for longer than six weeks. Marge thinks it is because he has helped people and been kind. However, after giving [[Ralph]] a sweet, he starts to die again. He then realizes that it was the spite building up in him that kept him alive. Burns decides to leave, and finds [[Nelson]] in the helicopter forcing Burns to be his father for the school play, otherwise he will crash the helicopter. Burns goes to the play and seems to enjoy it.
