Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood

"Boy-Scoutz N the Hood" is the eighth episode of Season 5.
==Synopsis==
After Bart and Milhouse go on a sugar bender after finding a $20 bill (that Homer found under the couch while looking for a peanut and lost when he slipped on the very peanut he was trying to find) and spending most of the money on a Squishee made of syrup, Bart wakes to find that he's a member of the geekiest club known to man: The Junior Campers (not affiliated with The Boy Scouts of America).
==Full Story ==
After being forced to leave the Noiseland Video Arcade, Bart and his best friend, Milhouse, find $20 that Homer lost and order super squishees made entirely out of syrup from Apu at the Kwik-E-Mart. With their senses reeling from the high-sugar content of the drink, they spend the rest of the money on a night out in town. The next morning, Bart wakes up with a hangover and realizes that in the revelry of the night before he joined the Junior Campers, a Boy Scout-style organization that is not affiliated with the Boy Scouts of America.

Although Bart initially intends to drop out of the group as soon as possible, he plans to attend a meeting to avoid a pop quiz at school. Bart doesn't like the first meeting, but when he finds out that he gets to have a pocket knife, he chooses to keep attending. After a while, Bart starts to enjoy being a member of the Junior Campers, which Homer mocks him relentlessly for. Next, a father-son rafting trip is to be held, so Bart has to bring Homer. Homer does not enjoy the experience, especially when he learns that he and Bart have to share the same raft with Ned Flanders and his older son, Rod. Due to Homer losing the map, they accidentally take the wrong turn and find themselves lost at sea. They stay stranded helplessly with no food or water for a long amount of time. Ned eventually goes berserk, but Homer then slaps him to snap him out of it. Homer, however, takes it too far, as he continuously slaps Ned. When the raft springs a leak after Homer accidentally drops a pocket knife, all seems lost, but then Homer smells his way to a Krusty Burger on an off-shore oil rig. They are saved, with Bart proud of Homer.
Meanwhile, the other Junior Campers, led by "special celebrity dad", Ernest Borgnine, take the correct route, but they end up in an even worse position: they find themselves trapped in a dark, tangled swamp (while being hunted by mountain men). Later, they are confronted by a bear and Borgnine tries to defend everyone using his Swiss Army Knife, but he is at a loss because Homer had stolen the knife to give it to Bart as a present. So he and his fellow campers flee to an abandoned summer camp in order to survive their bear attack. At the camp, they start singing "Bingo Was His Name-O", but are soon attacked by an unseen figure (presumably Jason Voorhees from Friday the 13th) lurking in the woods, leaving their fates unknown.
