Good Night/Transcript

:Homer: Well, good night, son.
:Bart: Erm, Dad?
:Homer: Yeah.
:Bart: What is the mind? Is it just a system of impulses, or is it.. :something tangible?
:Homer: Relax! What is mind, no matter, what is matter, never mind.
[Homer laughs]
:Bart: [not entirely convinced] Thanks, Dad.
:Homer: Good night, son.
[The lights go off, but Bart's eyes remain wide open, and one turns red]
:Marge: Good night, Lisa.
:Lisa: Good night, Mom.
:Marge: Sweet dreams.
:Lisa: [wearily] Thanks, Mom.
:Marge: Sleep tight.
:Lisa: I will Mom.
:Marge: Don't let the bed bugs bight.
[Marge turns the light off, and Lisa eyes remain open]
:Lisa: Bed bugs?
[Maggie sucks her pacifier]
:Marge: Rock a bye baby, [screen changes to Maggie's imagination of the lullaby] in the tree tops. When the wind blows, the cradle will rock. When the bow breaks, the cradle will fall, and down will come baby, cradle and all.
[Maggie's fantasy stops, and she is sucking her pacifier very fast]
:Marge: Sweet dreams.
[The lights go off, and Maggie's eyballs briefly pop out of their sockets]
:Homer: We may be the best parents in the world.
:Marge: Mmm... good night, dear.
[They kiss (without touching each other's lips)]
[Bart, Lisa and Maggie come in waving their arms frantically and talking almost complete gibberish]
:Marge: All right, climb in.
[The kids zip in to the bed]
:Homer: There's nothing to worry about, now everyone go to sleep. Good night.
[The lights turn off somehow. The family close their eyes, one by one. Maggie is the last]
:Maggie: Good night. [She closes her eyes]
