INT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLASS ROOM DAY
BART and MILHOUSE are taken in front of a desk with a light pointing to their faces.

MILHOUSE
Wow! I’m back at school!

BART
Come on guys take that light from my eyes!

A shadow approaches behind the light. It’s VLADIMIR PUTIN wearing a Karate uniform, with a head scarf.

VLADIMIR PUTIN
So you are the ones!

BART
Erm... so that means you are the others!

VLADIMIR PUTIN
Shut up kid! I can’t stand jokes.
Can you see me laughing? Can you?
Who told you to build that rocket?

BART
No one.

MILHOUSE
Well, Principal Skinner gave me
a hard suggestion (rubs his head).

VLADIMIR PUTIN pushes PRINCIPAL SKINNER from the dark side of the room. SKINNER is tied up and he is in underwear.

VLADIMIR PUTIN
This principal?

BART
Nice boxers Skinner! (laughs)

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
I didn’t suggest anything! Mr Putin,
if you think you can come to our city
and take over our school you are very wrong!

VLADIMIR PUTIN
Oh damn Rasputin!
I forgot to take over the school.

VLADIMIR PUTIN snap his fingers.

EXT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DAY

A RUSSIAN SOLDIER climbs the flag post of the school very quickly and changes the American flag into a Russian flag.

INT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL CLASS ROOM DAY

VLADIMIR PUTIN
It’s done! This school is now part of the great Russian empire.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
Just like that?!

VLADIMIR PUTIN
We are quick.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
You can’t do this?!
(Epic) Soon the President will know
and America will stand up to save us!

VLADIMIR PUTIN
Don’t worry about that. I already told him.

MILHOUSE
Did you call the President?

VLADIMIR PUTIN
Who does that these days?!
I post it on facebook.
He’s sending someone to defeat me.


INT WHITE HOUSE OVAL OFFICE DAY

BARAK OBAMA is standing in front of his desk trying to convince MATTHEW BRODERICK who is sat on a chair just in front.

BARAK OBAMA
Come on Mr Broderick, you can do it again
just like you did in 1983.

MATTHEW BRODERICK takes a small baby blue blanket from the pocket and starts caressing his own face nervously.

MATTHEW BRODERICK
Sorry Mr President, erm...
my relations with the Russians are done.
Life has changed... Erm... I want to be a producer.

BARAK OBAMA takes a pen from his pocket.

BARAK OBAMA
Look Mr Broderick... I can give you a Parker.

MATTHEW BRODERICK
I already have one!

MATTHEW BRODERICK run and jumps through the Office window.

BARAK OBAMA
Oh well... I’ll call Bruce Wayne again.

EXT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL DAY

CAPTAIN AMERICA rides a bicycle on the way to the Springfield Elementary School while singing Steppenwolfs’Born to be Wild in a very untuned way. He stops just in front of the Elementary School.

CAPTAIN AMERICA (SHOUTS)
Hey Putin! Come outside if you are a man!

Putin comes out very calm and applies a single Kata move to CAPTAIN AMERICA, putting him immediately out of order.

VLADIMIR PUTIN
Done! (shouts to the sky)
Come on Yankees!
Send me more of this for breakfast.

VLADIMIR PUTIN returns inside the School. THE COMIC BOOK GUY comes down the street and sees Captain America’s shield.

THE COMIC BOOK GUY
Am I dreaming?! Oh am I dreaming?!

The COMIC BOOK GUY runs to the shield, holds it and picks a five dollar note from the ground.

THE COMIC BOOK GUY
Five bucks! I’m not dreaming!

The COMIC BOOK GUY throws the Captain America shield away.

THE COMIC BOOK GUY
Stupid Frisbee!

He passes over CAPTAIN AMERICA all messed up, laying on the ground.

CAPTAIN AMERICA (IN EFFORT)
Hey you...

THE COMIC BOOK GUY
Finders keepers!

THE COMIC BOOK GUY runs away.

INT SIMPSON’S HOME KITCHEN NIGHT

MARGE is serving the dinner. LISA, HOMER and MAGGIE are sat waiting for the food.

MARGE
Oh Homie I’m worried.
Bart should be home by now.

HOMER
It’s just the first day of the holidays.

The door bell rings.

MARGE
Oh it must be him.
Go there and tell him off Homer.
He need to follow the house rules.

HOMER stands up to go to open the door.

HOMER
Ok... Ok...
Now you going to hear me... Erm... I think...
What Should I say? Erm... Doh.

INT SIMPSON’S MAIN ROOM NIGHT

HOMER opens the front door. Two FBI guys are at the door.

FBI GUY 1
Erm... Homer Simpson? FBI.

HOMER
Oh my God...
I pay my tickets...
I pay my tickets.

FBI GUY 1
Mr Simpson... I don’t know what you are talking about.

HOMER
Oh... The donuts! The donuts!
Where I’m going to hide?!

FBI GUY 2
You can’t hide now.
You have a visitor.


LOUIS ARMSTRONG comes in playing "Hail To The Chief" on his trumpet with a great jazzy final while BARAK OBAMA appears at the door.

BARAK OBAMA
Nice tune Bro!

LOUIS ARMSTRONG laughs, gives a High five to BARAK OBAMA and leaves. BARAK OBAMA turns to HOMER.

BARAK OBAMA
Hi Homie! Do you have extra dinner?!

HOMER
Now wait a minute!
I’m not going to share my dinner!

BARAK OBAMA
I’m afraid you have to.
I was informed of what you did.
We are moving in here to solve this crisis.

HOMER
We?

MICHELLE OBAMA enters from outside followed by MALIA and NATASHA. MARGE comes from the kitchen.

MARGE
Did you tell him off... wow... Mr President?!

BARAK OBAMA
Hi Margy!

HOMER
Erm... They are coming erm... to dinner.

MICHELLE OBAMA
No, no, no. We are coming to stay.

MICHELLE walks to MARGE and holds her hands.

MICHELLE OBAMA
We are going to be best friends!


INT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL LIBRARY NIGHT

BART and MILHOUSE are locked in the library.

MILHOUSE
This is awesome!
Can you believe it?
We are locked on the library.

BART
How can you be happy?
We are prisoners...
and prisoners in the school. (sighs)
Oh man I thought the worst day of my life was past.

MILHOUSE
Skinner is not so lucky.
He’s locked in the cleaning closet.
He doesn’t have anybody to talk to.

INT SPRINGFIELD ELEMENTARY CLEANING CLOSET NIGHT

SKINNER is sat on a bucket talking to a cleaning MOP.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
...and then she lit a cigarette
and asked me in sweet mellow voice,
hey babe can you offer me a drink...

VLADIMIR PUTIN bangs the door from outside.

VLADIMIR PUTIN (O.S.)
Can you shut up!?
I’m trying to organize an invasion here!

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
Oh you there... Sorry about the inconvenience,
in the meantime, can I go to the toilet...

VLADIMIR PUTIN (O.S.)
You have a bucket there.

PRINCIPAL SKINNER
Oh yes... What I was thinking... (giggles)
I’m sat on it.
Oh well... (To the mop)
Where was I in my story?

The MOP gains life and shouts to PRINCIPAL SKINNER.

MOP
Did you not hear the man?
Shut up!
(To Putin) Hey comrade,
can I get out of here?

The door opens and the MOP jumps out of the closet.

MOP
Really...
I prefer to watch the cleaning products channel.
At least I can see some brushes...


INT SIMPSON’S MAIN ROOM NIGHT

HOMER is sat on the sofa while BARAK OBAMA tells him off.

BARAK OBAMA
Your son is in danger because you were irresponsible.

HOMER
I’m sorry Mr President...

BARAK OBAMA
No... No... don’t need that. Just call me Bama.

HOMER
OK Bummer.

BARAK OBAMA
Erm... Is better, you keep calling me, Mr President.

HOMER
Well decide yourself. I’m so confused.
(beat) I need a beer.

BARAK OBAMA
Do you have chips?

HOMER
Yes... But they are mine!

BARAK OBAMA
Come on, I can save your kid.

HOMER
For a pack of chips?

BARAK OBAMA
And a beer.

HOMER
You politicians!
Why do I believe you?
You lie all the time!

BARAK OBAMA
No, please. Don’t go that way.
Think about us differently...

Starts a patriotic tune (kind of election campaign anthem) which goes in crescendo. The lights dim, and a spotlight surrounds BARAK OBAMA.

BARAK OBAMA (CONT)
...We can work hard everyday
to support our fellow citizens
and some other interesting people.
We can provide security and education
for all the children and soccer fans,
We can make people happy.
Look at me Homie!
We can even recover your kid.
(triumphant) We can win this fight!

HOMER sheds a tear in emotion. The patriotic tune stops abruptly, the spotlight disappears and the lights go back to normal.

HOMER
God bless America!

BARAK OBAMA
Can we have a beer now?

HOMER stands up euphoric.

HOMER
Yes we can!

BARAK OBAMA
UH! UH!
