(scene cuts) "send in the clowns" is a wonderful story about how government has lost sight of the people. the scene is set in beloved springfield, where lisa is the only one in the whole city that is excited about the presidential campaign that is coming. lisa is heartbroken to find out that the campaign is merely a media circus, and democracy is no longer a reality.   in the frame that frink appears in, he seems to be blinded by the light, as everyone in springfield has now come out of their dens to return to normalcy after the campaign leaves to find another town. and, as "campaign usa" sinks slowly into the muck, springfield returns to normalcy and vice-versa...in this issue, frink does not appear anywhere but the cover. but what a cover!simpsons for dum-dums is a delightful sendup where professor frink is a main character. professor frink is experimenting and trying to make lower mammals (aka homer) smart. professor frink is successful, and homer becomes a very very intelligent creature. because frink appears so many times in this issue, and is not really a bit role, i would have to scan the whole issue and basically write out the entire script.   however, i think that the fine people at bongo might have a problem with this, so just buy the issue and make everyone happy. professor frink: "just don't expect too much--you still won't understand the national league balk rule."  homer: "that's it--just a little pill?" in his never-ending plight to cheat the u.s. government out of taxes, krusty finds that the only way to get around the tax codes is to create his own country. he goes on tv and invites people to join him in krustonia. professor frink shows up to experiment free of government regulation, as well as to help out with the country's agricultural and electrical problems.frink: i always like to be here when each little bundle of genetic joy is born! whoo-heyburns: this is it, smithers. i certainly hope our little moppet here doesn't disappoint.  smithers: i do too, sir. in this issue, homer goes to a costume party dressed as radioactive man. after stopping dr. colossus from his evil plan (without knowing it), homer grabs onto dr. colossus, whose head has become affixed to a light socket, and is propelled through the air, as pictured here. frink, in attendance...reporter: what a shot! frink: nng woy!cletus: dang maw, lookit 'im go maw: hoo! cbg: show off! grampa: far out! wiggum: that's some mighty fine flyin' mister! jaspar: i can dig it masked man: who is that masked man?note that professor frink is appearing on "the labcoat network".. frink: as you can see, i ahemhoo-hay grasshopper... petri dish... there once was a man from nantucket.  it's a work in progress actually what with the uncertainty and the pitfalls and the hey! look at me, i'm on television. this issue, titled milhouse the man, krusty in the can, & the great springfield frink-out is absolutely fantastic. professor frink has accidentally altered the outcome of reality, where all the roles of our favorite springfieldites are switcheroonied. frink plays a major part in this issue, so you definitely don't wanna miss it!frink: but that's not the way things should be! due to a trauma to the space-time continuum, things have been altered from how they really are! in the reality that should be occuring right now, you're a free, rich man, with a top-rated local tv program and a line of industrial waste drums that i just rave about to my colleagues.lisa, disconcerted with her music teacher, mr. largo, decides that she is going to give up her sax. on the way to king toots to trade it in, she passes chintzy quincy's discount recording studio. she decides to tape her beloved sax and tape it "one last time... for posterity". after her jam session, she goes to pick up her tape. the nerd in the control studio, dizzy with stupidity over the flirting fluezy from otto's band, gives her a blank tape. otto and the screaming whiners are recorded onto lisa's tape, somehow leaving her track intact.  when otto's tape gets airplay, it is a instant hit. it is a "unique blend of speed metal and jazz," dubbed "spazz". after much attention to the song and continued airplay, otto's band gets a gig. at the gig, the band is not well received becuase of the lack of the jazz, as lisa is not on stage. the crowd becomes disgruntled, culminating in professor frink yelling, "hey otto, you stink! get off the stage!" in the treehouse of horror premier issue, lisa begins an experimentation with a plant (which appears to start as a venus flytrap) and dna from homer's toenail clipping (mmmm.. toenail), something goes horribly wrong. the plant dies, but comes back to life later with an insatiable appetite: for donuts! when the plant is featured on television at apu's, all of springfield rushes to apu's now remodeled quik-e-mart plant emporium to get a donut eating plant of their own. shown here is an enlarged photo of frink, money in hand, surely to buy one and dissect it.in treehouse of horror ii, sideshow bob is given an experimental drug which turns him into a grotesque, hideous blob. the simpson children are on the loose again, and look for people to help them nab the evil sideshow blob.  one of the people they meet up with is the illustious professor frink. frink however does not believe the simpson children, and spoilerseason2 / season3 / season4 / season5 / season6 / season7 / season8 / season9 / season10comics / other uhhh, no you got the wrong number, this is 91......2                                                 192680 this web site, its operators, and any content contained on this site relating to "the simpsons" are not authorized by fox.
