==="Life's a Glitch, Then You Die"=== On December 31, 1999, Homer, the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]]'s [[Year 2000 problem|Y2K]] compliance officer, has neglected to fix all possible problems in the plant's computers. This results in a computer virus causing widespread destruction and societal collapse. The family learns that a rocket is being prepared for humanity's "best and brightest", and will carry them to [[Mars]] to preserve human civilization. Homer fails to bluff his way on board but the guard recognizes Lisa as the ship's designated proofreader. Lisa is only able to take one parent with her, and immediately chooses Marge (and Maggie as she was carrying her). Homer and Bart find a second, unguarded rocket. They quickly notice that it is filled with second-rate celebrities. While this rocket is headed directly for the sun, Homer and Bart cannot bear being with these passengers and eject themselves into space.
