The Simpsons - Sideshow Bob Kills Bart in 1993 (Season 35 Episode 5)

[@irishbananamafia9728]

They brought back the art style from the 90s for this scene, respect to modern Simpson 🫡

[@VictorGonzalez-xs9oc]

Not modern, just evolve drawing of the Simpsons.

[@Brandonhayhew]

They did it give credit to the classic

[@lowhp_comic]

Aw man was this a one off? I was genuinely excited about them doing hand drawn styles once more 😔

[@mrtuxedogx6756]

The fact that bob looked to lisa's eyes for a second when he was killing bart gave me chills down the spine

[@RestlessRebel]

@@RestlessRebelin what instilling more fear and horror while killing Bart

[@starling_song]

Its reminiscent of actual killers. Richard Ramirez AKA the Nightstalker waited until he saw the look of fear in the eyes of one of his victims before taking their life. It’s part of their sadistic nature.

[@yourfriend4104]

At least she got revenge and made him terrified while doing it

[@jasobres]

I can't believe they captured all the details of the original, like the color of the sky, the positioning of the hogtied family with Maggie tied on top of Marge and Homer "drugged".

[@quinnfletcher3906]

Bart just couldn't help bragging about how he almost fooled Bob. A little humility (even false one) might have saved him.

[@theojohnmouzouros9975]

I think if he asked that in cape fear Bart wouldn’t of bragged and laughed about it he would of lied and said no I wanted to hear ur beautiful voice

[@ultrajd]

This is Bart we’re talking about. “Humility” isn’t in his vocabulary.

[@ingamingpc1634]

@@ultrajd well to be fair this is alternate bart that we're talking about because the other bart from the normal series survived

[@mikeyg9958]

The Bart in this segment wasn’t as smart as he was in the original Cape Feare

[@brookpickett9235]

This alternate timeline where Lisa witnessed Bart being gruesomely murder traumatized her causing her mind to be warped by grief and vengeance. Crazy to think if Lisa would become a psychopath if Sideshow Bob succeeded in killing Bart in the original airing of Cape Feare.

[@disneyboy3030]

I am imagining a fanfic that shows what would happen if the Watcher showed up and at Lisa's request brought her to this world to show her what would've happened if Bart had died that day. Interestingly it also reminds her of how despite their tensions she does love him and sees how terrible it would be if she lost him.

[@PeachWookiee]

Lisa’s path would be very different without Bart. She’d also hold tightly to Maggie. The whole family would be damaged.

[@Doctor4077]

This really puts in perspective how Bart was in actual danger every time Shideshow Bob came after him. Like it’s easy to forget in between all the goofy cartoon gags and because he keeps failing over and over again, but he was actually trying to brutally murder a 10 year old boy.

[@redjirachi1]

There's a reason they didn't do this kind of scenario for over twenty years

[@TheBuckweat33]

I love sideshow Bob for this reason. He’s not menacing…although he is actually. He’s a well-read psychopath desperately trying to brutally kill a little boy.

[@AndyToons64]

This is truly a disturbing universe

[@redjirachi1]

Dark Simpsons: I don't know whether to be honored or feel plagiarized

[@Yakkymania]

Dang, this shows what Bob is really capable of. Not only does it make Cape Feare far spookier than it already was, it makes Bob’s redemption in Brother from Another Series more impactful & his second fall from grace in Day of the Jackanapes feel even worse than before..

[@disneyboy3030]

I read on one of the Simpson Wiki's that it was possible that somehow what Cecil tricked Bob into saying brought his own tendencies back.

[@Yakkymania]

⁠​⁠@@disneyboy3030I always interpreted Cecil as a very charismatic guy who’s very capable of tricking people, but that explanation still feels sort of weak to me as Cecil completely resents Bob. Maybe there’s some other explanation for that, that also explains why the dynamic seems different in Funeral for a Fiend?

[@CrisisComics]

​@@Yakkymania My rationalization for Bob's renewed hatred for Bart is that the Simpsons were either prevented from testifying on Bob's behalf, or simply didn't do anything to help him (they might've just wanted to wash their hands of the whole 'Sideshow Bob' affair given that he previously attempted to murder their son, blow up Springfield, and destroy their house), so all of his heroics and good deeds from the Cecil episode were ultimately repaid with... nothing but jail time. Given the very unfair circumstances under which he was arrested, plus the fact that he was locked up with his younger brother for so long... is it any wonder why Bob would be so quick to ignore his attempt to reform?

[@TheAllSeeingEye2468]

I like how they reanimated this scene

[@elchicogore9517]

Yeah, i actually thought it was just a recording from the original episode, they really knew how to reanimate it, props to them

[@lowhp_comic]

Wish they kept this beautiful style going 😔

[@christophernorris1491]

They also did the same to the "I Call The Big One Bitey" scene from Marge VS. The Monorail for Treehouse of Horror XXXIII

[@prasithoudomvilay8454]

They make it like in the past ❤

[@scifiguy9000]

So we have stumbled upon a dark alternate universe...

[@redjirachi1]

This is indeed a disturbing universe

[@undisclosedidentity9893]

Bart never took Sideshow Bob seriously, but he wasn’t aware he was in danger every time he was caught by Sideshow Bob.

[@supremekhi7968]

Ha ha I love it when The Simpsons goes back to older episodes to do something cool with them, even if its well, dark

[@nixonbubble]

it is interesting they put a concrete date on that episode, making a seperate universe for the 30 years later to exist in from the rest of the series

[@sixonesix3915]

Nah that's literally the day the episode first aired in real life

[@El_Omar2203]

​@@sixonesix3915 yeah but most of the time they are not specifc in the show itself of the date aside from slipping out the year or month

[@ajsy1090]

I think why Lisa was not killed after Bart was "murdered" in the altered timeline of Cape Feare, possibly the ship was hit on the rock just like the original version and subsequently Chief Wiggum arrested Bob and he discovered the "lifeless" body of Bart.

[@willtheraven1920]

Should we roleplay it?

[@lowhp_comic]

I think this was before he extended his revenge to the family and solely wanted Bart dead, cause he tied them all up

[@illager-to7yk]

​@@lowhp_comicRemember that Bob never really considered himself evil, per se, and in the early seasons he wasn't really as vengeance driven. We can tell he isn't do vengeance driven by the fact that this episode doesn't continue as a retelling of THOH XXIV. I recognise that this scene takes place during season 5, and this it's not quite canon here, but nonetheless bob does claim that „Evil isn't a choice.” Bob wouldn't kill Lisa, or the rest of the family. He still considered himself good, and he considered his revenge on Bart to be justified (oddly similar to Max Cady). Revenge on Lisa wouldn't be justified, as she's never wronged him. (I know that she has done most of the brain-work to catch Bob, bob that doesn't count, as bob has no knowledge of it at this time).

[@ajsy1090]

​@@illager-to7yk still Bob was arrested and he was stabbed by Lisa in the final scene

[@truewarrior9923]

Seeing the older animation again really made smile but at the same time though the scene was brutal definitely one of the most violent scenes that i have seen from the show... 😶😶.

[@prasithoudomvilay8454]

Me too! It's nice to get a throwback but with a twist ❤. It's nice to have to animation in the 90s but make still modern when 16:9 screen appeared. I have no problem of the Simpsons coming back with nostalgic eps but with a twist

[@alihammoud1028]

I have a theory that Lisa was also looking at sideshow Bob in the original to. But they probably didn’t wanna show it from her perspective because it was Bart’s episode 😂😂😢

[@DerIrre1]

I mean, that alone isn´t the Point of Divergence - Bob halting his singing and realizing that he´s been had by Bart is. Then again, Lisa plopping onto the seat and looking outside could have conceivably alerted Bob that something´s not right - so it´s a bit murky if her taking a look actually did happen "off-screen" in the original episode. ...That would also indicate that Adult!Lisa *might be blaming herself for Barts death in this timeline* "If only I hadn´t taken a look, Bob might not have grown wise and my brother might still be alive..*What have I done?*" Actually something I am exploring in a little something I am writing just this moment, actually^^

[@PeachWookiee]

Not this era’s Homer. He’d wake up and be devastated. Honestly, Homer could potentially have attempted to end Bob. Marge would’ve known the minute Lisa started screaming. It would’ve broken them all.

How did Marge and Homer react to his death and did grampa ever get his pills after this and did sideshow bob go on to kill Kristy as well without Bart to stop him also did sideshow bob manage to stop his evil brother from blowing up the dam without Barts help. This creates an entire new chain of events in the Simpsons universe I can't stop thinking about it.

[@maynorleiva2945]

The only thing that is known about this line alternates with Marge and Homer, the first took her life as a result of the loss of the bar, Homer choked on a ball, but it is not known when this could have happened, if after Bob Will he achieve his goal or some time later, with Marge this was surely not long after Bar's death, but Homer I have no idea when it could have happened, perhaps many years later and he raised his daughters until he died from that silly accident. xd, if this happened he surely lived with regrets and tried to be a better father to Lisa and Magie following the death of Marge and Bar, it would be interesting if it had been a two-part special like "IT" to explore this alternative line a little.

In other non canon, yes. But in this and canon, Lisa would be definitely heartbroken.
