Homer works as an inspector at the nuclear plant, despite his careless attitude, while Marge holds the household together. Bart keeps coming up with pranks, and his lies cause trouble at home. Lisa, with her critical eye, sets off on adventures of her own, such as her trip to Canada, which throws the whole family off balance. Marge also takes center stage with new projects, such as her jobs outside the home. Maggie appears as the little one of the house, still a baby. Springfield's eccentric neighbors round out the cast.
