Synopsis
Homer befriends Terrence (Fred Armisen) and Emily (Carrie Brownstein), new neighbors from Portland. Homer becomes like Terrence because he wants a younger, hipper image. When Bart gets into a fight with Terrance and Emily's son T-Rex (Patton Oswalt), the friendship becomes strained and Terrence, angry at the Simpsons, calls his friends from Portland, and Springfield is soon full with 'cool' people. Meanwhile, Marge feels uncomfortable around Emily and her friends when they are breastfeeding, and she is feeding Maggie from the bottle.
