"Barthood" is the 9th episode of season 27. It aired on December 13, 2015.

Synospis

"Bart's coming of age story a la "Boyhood" chronicles his life from six years old to his time as an accomplished young man. Along the way, his tense relationship with Homer, an overly uncaring version of himself, and Lisa, who overshadows him in every way possible, shape Bart more than he realizes."


It wasn't as focused on technology gags as previous episodes that take place on the future.

Plot

The episode begins with Homer and a 6 year old Bart laying down on the grass, as Bart asks things about nature to his father, only for Homer to ask him why did he leave his toy cars on the stairs, resulting in many injuries for him. The family decides to take Bart to Abe's house to take him away from Homer. As Bart asks grandpa to play with toy cars, he remembers about an old car he has bought brand new in 1954 and forgot about it. Bart asks if he can sit on it, but grandpa reveals that Bart can actually drive it

The episode fast-fowards 2 years to the future, with Bart still driving grandpa's car, late for his reading class. Jonathan Frink tries to teach him without much sucess, and discovers that Lisa, who's 2 years younger can read almost perfectly.

While Homer is painting the walls and furniture to it's original color, Bart tries to impress Lisa by driving Homer's car, only to crash it through the kitchen wall, almost hitting his father.

Homer and Marge decide to go to a psychologist to see why their son is such a troublemaker. She says that it's because of Homer's lack of attention for him and that they should go camping together. But instead of taking the boy to camping, Homer takes him to an inn only for him to watch a game, making Bart sad. Back at home, he discovers that Lisa is the student of the month at Springfield Elementary, even though she has been in the school only for a month, while Bart has been there for two years and haven't won anything. Homer tries to reconcile with him by saying he loves both of them the same amount: 40%. Bart makes a bumper stick for Homer's car, but he ignores it because there's no more space for stickers in his bumper.

Three years later, Bart is good at making stunts with his bike and Marge and Lisa go on a camp together, leaving Homer and Bart alone.

Bart throws a party at their home, and it is shown that Bart has a relationship with Terri, but it was actually Sherri, as stating "You make out just as good as Terri said you did." Bart later finds Homer and Wiggum high on pot, where he reveals that he was exactly like Bart, but when he was born, this meant he was not a kid anymore. They hug each other, but their moment is ruined when Homer mentions that he will not go anywhere or do anything.

Bart goes to Grandpa's grave, where he gets the idea of going to a BMX competition, where he would never be overshadowed by Lisa. At one of his stunts, however, he gets distracted by Lisa's shadow, hits the ground too hard and blacks out, only to discover that he was brought back to life by Lisa who's now proclaimed as a hero, making him angry.
