Editing Treehouse of Horror II (section)

==Plot==
After eating too much [[Halloween candy]], [[Homer Simpson|Homer]], [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] and [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] have nightmares.

In Lisa's nightmare, the family take a trip to [[Morocco]]. Homer buys a cursed monkey's paw that will grant its owner four wishes. The shop vendor warns Homer that the paw can cause "grave misfortune," but Homer ignores him. Upon returning home, he argues with Bart and Lisa over who gets to use the paw, while [[Marge Simpson|Marge]] pleads with them to heed the vendor's warning and not use it at all. Despite this, [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]] is granted the first wish: a new pacifier. Bart wishes for [[Simpson family|the Simpsons]] to be rich and famous, but the public soon tires of the family's antics and ubiquity. Horrified by the wasteful wishes, Lisa wishes for [[world peace]], but aliens [[Kang and Kodos]] enslave the defenseless Earth. Determined to make a harmless wish, Homer demands a turkey sandwich, but the turkey is dry. With all the wishes used, he gives the paw to his neighbor [[Ned Flanders|Ned]] and the paw resets. Ned wishes for the aliens to leave, which they do after [[Moe Szyslak|Moe]] chases them away, using a wooden plank with a nail in it as a weapon. Ned then turns his house into a castle, much to Homer's frustration.

In Bart's nightmare, Springfield lives in fear of Bart's omnipotent powers, including the ability to read minds, magically move objects and turn living things into grotesque forms. When Homer refuses to turn off a football game so Bart can watch ''The [[Krusty the Clown]] Show'', Bart transports him to the football stadium in place of the ball for a [[Field goal (American and Canadian football)|field goal]] kick. As Homer creeps into the house trying to surprise him with a blow to the head, Bart transforms Homer into a jack-in-the-box. After [[List of recurring The Simpsons characters#Dr. Marvin Monroe|Dr. Marvin Monroe]] says Bart is desperate for attention from his father, Homer spends quality time with his son. Bart restores Homer's human form and they share a warm moment, causing Bart to wake up screaming.

In Homer's nightmare, he becomes a grave digger after [[Mr. Burns]] fires him for incompetence. While building a giant robotic laborer to replace human workers, Burns searches a graveyard for a human brain to implant in the robot. After mistaking Homer, asleep in an open grave, for a corpse, he removes his brain and places it in the robot. Since Robo-Homer is just as incompetent as the old Homer, Burns declares the experiment a failure. After restoring the brain to Homer's body, Burns kicks the robot, which topples over and crushes him. Homer wakes from the nightmare to find Burns' head grafted on his shoulder. Homer tries to reassure himself that he is only dreaming, but Burns' head insists otherwise.
