==Plot==
After Bart and Lisa see Krusty the Clown broadcast his show from the Mount Splashmore water park, they pester Homer to take them there. While Marge and Maggie visit a wading pool for infants, Bart, Lisa and Homer ride an intense water slide called H2WHOA!. Because of his weight, Homer gets lodged in the water slide mid-course. The park's rescue crew is forced to close the ride and remove the blocked section of pipe using a large crane, with Homer still stuck inside. That night, the news media poke fun at Homer's massive size during their coverage of his mishap at the water park.
After finding that he weighs 260 pounds, Homer vows he will diet and get more exercise. While Homer is looking for his weights in the attic, Bart stumbles upon several old paintings of Ringo Starr that Marge had made as a high school student. Marge reveals she was scolded by her art teacher for painting Starr, whom she had a crush on. She sent a painting to him for his "honest opinion", but she never got a response from the Beatles' drummer. After Lisa suggests that Marge take a painting class at Springfield Community College, she paints Homer asleep on the couch in his underwear, earning praise from her teacher, Professor Lombardo. The painting wins the college art show, earning Marge fame and newspaper headlines.
Mr. Burns asks Marge to paint his portrait for a new wing of the Springfield Art Museum. Desperate to please his boss, Homer convinces Marge to agree, although she resists Homer's plea to paint Burns as a beautiful man. While Burns is taking a shower at the Simpsons' house, Marge inadvertently sees him naked. Homer finds he has lost 21 pounds from his exercise regimen and now weighs 239. After Burns disparages Homer's weight and his daughters, Lisa and Maggie, Marge throws him out of the house. She is ready to quit until Homer encourages her to finish the portrait.
Marge is also inspired by a letter from Starr, who is determined to answer decades' worth of old fan mail. After working well into the night, she finishes the painting in time for its unveiling at the opening of the museum wing. The painting depicts a naked, frail and weak Burns. The museum visitors are shocked until Marge explains that the portrait shows what Burns really is: a vulnerable human being who will die one day. At first Burns is outraged, but then he praises Marge's painting and thanks her for not making fun of his genitalia — to which she replies, "I thought I did."
