Review of Some Enchanted Evening

This is most likely my favorite episode of the first season. A babysitter named Ms. Lucille Botzcowski comes to babysit the Simpson kids as Homer and Marge go for a night out... Everyone is unaware that Ms. Botz is a bandit and has made a career out of robbing houses. Botz has Bart and Lisa watch the cartoon called the "Happy Little Elves Meet the Curious Bear Cub." Afterwards, Bart and Lisa watch TV to see that Ms. Botz truly is the babysitter bandit... but they are unable to fight back as she comes in and ties them up. Maggie gets out of her crib and crawls towards the already bound Lisa and Bart... who proceed to tell Maggie that they'll put on the Happy Elves video again if she helps untie them. Maggie complies... and the children hatch a plan to take down Ms. Botz. Eventually, Bart hides in a dark closet and sucks on Maggie's pacifier, wielding a baseball bat... and luring Ms. Botz in. He knocks her out cold... and they go to call the authorities. Homer and Marge get home to find Ms. Botz tied and gagged... so Homer unties her and pays her three times the normal pay. The authorities arrive to find that Homer has allowed the notorious babysitter bandit to escape. Of course, Homer pretends to have gone through a struggle... but he knows the truth... he botched everything up again. Very awesome episode. Ms. Botzcowski's character is very vivid and lively. The manner in which the character's movements and actions are depicted are extremely colorful and memorable. She's likely one of my favorite female characters in the series due to her actually maniacal yet calculated mannerisms and movements. This is definitely my favorite episode of the entire first season of this awesome series.
