Steamed Hams

Well, Seymour, I made it- despite your directions.
 Ah.
 Superintendent Chalmers.
 Welcome.
 - I hope you're prepared for an unforgettable luncheon.
 - Yeah.
 Oh, egads! My roast is ruined.
 But what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking? Delightfully devilish, Seymour.
 Ah- Skinner with his crazy explanations The superintendent's gonna need his medication When he hears Skinner's lame exaggerations There'll be trouble in town tonight Seymour! Superintendent, I was just- uh, just stretching my calves on the windowsill.
 Isometric exercise.
 Care to join me? Why is there smoke coming out of your oven, Seymour? Uh- Oh.
 That isn't smoke.
 It's steam.
 Steam from the steamed clams we're having.
 Mmm.
 Steamed clams.
 Whew.
 Superintendent, I hope you're ready for mouthwatering hamburgers.
 I thought we were having steamed clams.
 D'oh, no.
 I said steamed hams.
 That's what I call hamburgers.
 You call hamburgers steamed hams? Yes.
 It's a regional dialect.
 - Uh-huh.
 Uh, what region? - Uh, upstate New York.
 Really.
 Well, I'm from Utica, and I've never heard anyone use the phrase "steamed hams.
 " Oh, not in Utica.
 No.
 It's an Albany expression.
 I see.
 You know, these hamburgers are quite similar to the ones they have at Krusty Burger.
 Oh, no.
 Patented Skinner burgers.
 Old family recipe.
 - For steamed hams.
 - Yes.
 Yes.
 And you call them steamed hams despite the fact that they are obviously grilled.
 Ye- You know, the- One thing I should- - Excuse me for one second.
 - Of course.
 Well, that was wonderful.
 A good time was had by all.
 I'm pooped.
 Yes.
 I should be- Good Lord! What is happening in there? - Aurora borealis.
 - Uh- Aurora borealis at this time of year at this time of day in this part of the country localized entirely within your kitchen? - Yes.
 - May I see it? No.
 Seymour.

 ! No, Mother.
 It's just the northern lights.
 Well, Seymour, you are an odd fellow but I must say you steam a good ham.
 Help.
