Bart Gets Hit by a Car (Springfield Animals episode)

"Bart Gets Hit by a Car" is an upcoming episode of The Simpsons: Springfield Animals television series. It is a remake of Bart Gets Hit by a Car.
==Plot==
While crossing the road on his skateboard, Bart is struck by Mr. Burns' car. After having an out-of-body experience, Bart wakes up in a hospital room surrounded by his family and the Blue-Haired Lawyer, who suggests that the Simpsons sue Burns. Homer is reluctant to sue his boss and Marge protests that Bart's injuries are minor. To avoid a lawsuit, Burns offers Homer $100, which he rejects because it fails to cover Bart's medical bills.
Homer visits Hutz, who promises him a cash settlement of $1 million, of which Hutz gets 50%. Hutz takes Bart to see Dr. Nick Riviera, a quack doctor who claims that Bart has extensive injuries. At the trial, Hutz encourages Bart to exaggerate his condition on the witness stand; Marge and Lisa demand that he tell the truth. On the stand, Bart and Burns tell outrageous versions of the accident that portray them in a favorable light to impress the jury.
Burns denounces his lawyers' incompetence and demands that they bring Homer to his mansion at once. Burns offers Marge and Homer a $500,000 settlement and leaves the room to allow them to consider his offer. Marge pleads with Homer to accept the money and drop the lawsuit. Homer insists Burns knows he will lose the trial and refuses to settle with him. While spying on Marge and Homer, Burns hears her admit she dislikes "shifty lawyers" and "phony doctors". Burns returns to the room and hastily withdraws his offer.
At the trial Burns' lawyer calls Marge to the witness stand, where he demands she tell the court the extent of Bart's injuries. She denounces the doctor as a charlatan and describes how limited Bart's injuries really are. Marge's testimony destroys Hutz's case and the Simpsons get nothing.
That night, Homer is depressed about losing the money and leaves to drown his sorrows at Moe's Tavern, where Marge follows him. Moe claims that rich people are not happy, but Homer thinks the money would have allowed him to buy things for his family. Marge asks Homer to forgive her for testifying truthfully. He says he is unsure if he still loves her and admits he is angry at her for ruining their chance at a better life. Marge encourages him to look at her and decide how he feels. Homer looks into her eyes and realizes he loves her as much as ever.
