This delight in warping, skewing and otherwise messing with the familiar Simpsons crowd comes to a head in the penultimate episode of the season, the preposterously epic "Lemon of Troy." Here, Bart and a team of pre-teen adventurers invade neighboring Shelbyville after their beloved lemon tree (a Springfield landmark) has been stolen.
What they find is an eerie, looking-glass double of their hometown, where Bart is distressed to discover his hi-jinks are unknown, and Milhouse finds comfort in meeting someone who shares his unusual first name ("So this is what I sounds like," he says while embracing his double, "when doves cry").
And with classic episodes such as "A Star is Burns" and "Fear of Flying," the season is full to the brim with the best of the best.
