 Bart and [[Milhouse]] get a stopwatch through an ad in an old comic book magazine for 49 cents that actually allows them to stop time. They have a great blast pulling pranks on [[Springfield]]ians, such as depantsing Principal [[Skinner]] and stealing Homer's doughnuts. They almost get away with it, but they are outsmarted by [[Mayor Quimby]]. An angry mob then chases after Bart and Milhouse. While they are on the run, Chief Wiggum shoots at them; they stop time and the watch breaks, causing Bart and Milhouse to be the only two people moving in a world where time has stopped. They soon take advantage of this and go on a world wide crime spree, kidnapping the pope for wedgying, stealing whatever they want and just generally doing anything they wish.
-They soon become bored though and realize they need to fix the watch. Although the watch repair manual states that each lesson lasts about an hour, it takes the pair 15 years to get the watch fixed and for things to go back to normal. Once repaired, the pair position Martin Prince to take the blame, and he is killed when time returns. However, Lisa points out that Bart has become a grown man and has amassed vast riches. In the interest of being fair, Homer decides to let Lisa use the watch. She then discovers a second button which interferes with reality, causing the Simpsons to undergo various changes such as becomimg bobbleheads, having their torsos separate from their bodies on jetpacks, become the {{W|Fantastic 4}}, and finally start hula-hooping to "Rock Around the Clock", and Bart is restored to his normal 10-year-old self.
