Betty White : Absolutely.
Homer : Well, then we got a problem. The banks are closed by now.
Betty White : It's 12:15.
Homer : Maybe your movie star banks are open crazy hours, but we in Springfield are simple folk. We like our cars fast and our banks closed.
[seeing the angry looks]

[Cut to the Thames opening logo]
Bart Simpson : YOU'RE watching PBS?
Homer : Hey, I'm as surprised as you, but I've stumbled upon the most delicious British sitcom.
Bart Simpson : [seeing the title] "Do Shut Up"?
Homer : It's about a hard-drinking yet loving family of soccer hooligans. If they're not having a go with a bird, they're having a row with a wanker.
Bart Simpson : Cheeky.

PBS Host : With your donation, you'll receive this classic PBS tote bag.
Betty White : Or this umbrella featuring a picture of our classic tote bag.

[sound of footsteps and a security guard clearing his throat]
PBS Host : Outstanding.
Homer : Why are you torturing me? I'm just a man!
Betty White : You know, I've worked with so many legendary actors over the years who could be counted on to "phone it in." Well, now it's your turn to phone it in; your pledge, that is. Please. Please! We're only $10,000 away from returning to our show.
Homer : Well, why didn't you say so?

Homer : [asking Reverend Lovejoy to hide him from PBS] Please help me. I'll do anything. I'll light a candle. I'll help with your next charity scam.

Homer : Sure, sure. Bob's your uncle. Let's just get out of here.

Homer : I'd like to withdraw $10,000, please.
Bank Teller : [reading the note passed to him] "You are on television. Please play along." Are you robbing me?
Homer : [whispering] I'll pay you later.
PBS Host : Um, is there a problem, Mr. Simpson?
Homer : Uh... . why, no. Uh, everything is just...
[grabbing a pen, he tries to stab the host, but the short chain prevents it]
Homer : Ohh! I can't do it! I can't kill a man.
[changing his hand position, he tries again]
-
Betty White : If you like great PBS programs like "Do Shut Up" and "Shut Your Gob," you'll want to support our pledge drive.
Bart : Pledge drive? Ugh!
PBS Host : That's right, Betty White.
Betty White : Absolutely. If you watch even one second of PBS and don't contribute, you're a thief. A common thief.
PBS Host : Okay, take it easy, Betty.
Betty White : Sorry, but these thieves make me so damn mad. You know who you are. Thieves!
Homer : You're mad? Where's my show?
PBS Host : And now it's time to go back to "Do Shut Up."
Homer : Finally.
PBS Host : But first...
Homer : [disappointed groan] Ohh!

Rev. Lovejoy : We'll send you someplace safe 'til the heat dies down.
Homer : Great, but why am I on a plane?
Rev. Lovejoy : Homer, how would you like to be a missionary in the South Pacific?
Homer : South Pacific? I didn't agree to...
[Lovejoy shuts the hatch, and the plane takes off]
Homer : [running to the cockpit] Wa-wait! I'm no missionary. I don't even believe in Jebus.
-
Marge : So, you said on the phone you had something to tell me?
Rev. Lovejoy : Hmm? Oh, yes. Your husband's in Microatia.
Lisa : Microatia? That's 12,000 miles away.
Rev. Lovejoy : Uh-huh. He needed to get away for a while. I suggested missionary work, and he jumped at the idea.
Marge : Missionary work?
Bart : He's dead, isn't he?
Rev. Lovejoy : No, no. You can even keep in touch with him on this ham radio.
Homer : [over the radio] Jebus, where are you? Homer to Jebus.
[disappointed groan]
Homer : Ohh...
-
Homer : Yes, I'd like to pledge $10,000 to get them to shut up. From... anonymous.
[hanging up and brushing his hands together]
Homer : Done and done.
Bart : Dad, you don't have $10,000.
Homer : Eh, how are they gonna find me?
Betty White : Folks, we just reached our goal of $10,700, and it's all thanks to one generous caller who didn't leave his name.
[Homer laughs triumphantly]
Betty White : But thanks to Insta-Trace, we've learned it's Homer Simpson of 742 Evergreen Terrace.
Homer : AHH! Oh, why did I register with Insta-Trace?
Betty White : Our pledge enforcement van will be at his house in moments.
Homer : Uh-oh. You gotta help me, Bart.
[seeing him jump out the window]
Homer : That's it, boy. Go get help.
[realizing Bart's playing on the swing set]
Homer : D'oh!

Homer : I'm gonna teach you about religion.
Islanders : [chanting] Ooga-booga-ooga.
