==Plot==
After going to church with his family, Bart is forbidden by Marge to see the violent movie Space Mutants 4. Later on, he runs into three of Springfield's bullies: Jimbo, Kearney, and Dolph. The three invite Bart to sneak into the movie theater to watch Space Mutants 4. After being thrown out of the theater by the manager, the gang shoplift from the Kwik-E-Mart, throw rocks at the statue of Springfield's founder, Jebediah Springfield, and watch clouds. Bart remarks that one cloud resembles the statue of Jebediah Springfield, but without a head. His new friends remark that they wish someone would decapitate the statue, saying it would be funny to see the town upset over it. When Bart disagrees, the bullies make fun of him. Bart is conflicted and asks Homer whether it is okay to compromise one's beliefs to be popular. Homer tells Bart that popularity is the most important thing in the world, as long as Bart is not talking about killing someone. That night, Bart sneaks out of the house and decapitates the statue.
The town is shaken by the crime, which causes Bart to feel guilty about their actions. The act also does not make him popular with Jimbo, Dolph, and Kearney, who tell Bart they didn't actually mean what they said about cutting off the head, and that they would attack the culprit if he were with them. Bart begins to fear the consequences were his actions revealed, and his conscience manifests itself as the statue's severed head, which begins speaking to him. Unable to go on, Bart finally confesses to his family, explaining that he thought being popular was the most important thing in the world. Homer realizes it was his advice that had caused Bart to commit the crime in the first place, and now he feels guilty. Bart takes the head to the statue, with Homer following along holding himself responsible for the events. They are found by an angry mob. Bart realizes his act has actually brought the town closer together, and the mob agrees. The head is then returned to the statue and everyone forgives Homer and Bart.
