Marge Simpson in: "Screaming Yellow Honkers"

"Marge Simpson in: "Screaming Yellow Honkers"" is the fifteenth episode of Season 10.
==Synopsis==
Marge becomes the proud driver of an SUV made for women (after Homer buys it, thinking that it's for men), and develops road rage, which gets her in trouble with the law.
== Full Story ==
The school is having a talent show for the teachers. The show opens with all the teachers singing a song to the tune of "Fame." Then Groundskeeper Willie does a standup comedy routine (which is only funny when Groundskeeper Willie sarcastically claims that he's only funny when he's cleaning children's puke in school), Mrs. Krabappel does a striptease involving popping the balloons taped to her body (which horrifies and disgusts the audience), and Principal Skinner and Superintendent Chalmers attempting the "Who's on First?" routine made famous by Abbott and Costello, only for Skinner to kill the joke by explaining it. After these acts, Principal Skinner announces an intermission, and the audience quickly leaves when Principal Skinner reveals that the next act is going to have the teachers in Beatles wigs playing tennis racket guitars. Homer has Marge drive home, so he can eat some snacks he swiped from the show (which he claimed was compensation for having to sit through Krabappel's balloon striptease). On the way home, he and the kids criticize Marge's timid driving. Homer then sees Krusty the Clown driving the Canyonero sport utility vehicle (last seen on season nine's "The Last Temptation of Krust"), taking advantage of the SUV's size to drive wherever he pleases.
Impressed with Krusty's ride, Homer obtains a Canyonero the very next day, but learns to his embarrassment that the model he bought is the F-series, intended for women and is made fun of for it by Lenny and Carl. He gives the vehicle to Marge, but when she uses it, she develops road rage. On a busy day racing around town, Marge is arrested and ordered to go to traffic school, where she watches a video on how the anger in road rage should be directed at other people and things and the class pummels Eddie the cop dressed as Curtis E. Bear, the courtesy bear. Marge is cured of her rage, but it flares up again when Agnes and Kearney won't pass each other while exiting the parking lot. After seeing Eddie the cop honking his horn and shouting that he needs to return his ruined bear costume to the rental place, Marge accidentally drives the SUV into the prison fence, causing all of the convicts to escape that were (according to Chief Wiggum) only one day away from rehabilitation, and she tears her drivers license into shreds (Wiggum would have done it himself, but his fingers are too stubby).
Later, the police recruit Marge to use the SUV to prevent a herd of raging rhinos. They escaped the Zoo when Homer, visiting the Zoo with Bart and Lisa, that caused them to go berserk via a chain of events that resulted in Homer "borrowing" Bart's slingshot to wake up a lemur (which was asleep due to it being nocturnal), the lemur in a terrified state proceeded to bite the Kangaroo's tail, which while hopping around in pain proceeded to ram into a Rhinoceros which then escaped). Marge agrees to help when she observes her family in danger on the news and succeeds in rounding up all of the rhinos. When she learns that there is one missing, she sees Homer being carried off by the rhino (his belt is caught on the rhino's horn). She chases the beast to a construction site and deliberately crashes the SUV, distracting the rhino from attacking Homer (who is now hiding in a port-a-potty). It bursts into flames and the rhino instinctively tries to stamp out the blaze, giving the zookeepers a chance to capture it. She credits her success to Stone Phillips and the whole family praises NBC. During the end credits, Homer is held at gunpoint, forced to declare that NBC sucks and encourages the audience to watch as many Fox shows as possible, only to be shot when he praises CBS.
