Ep 15. Co-Dependent's Day

Co-Dependent's Day is an episode from the fifteenth season of the beloved animated sitcom, The Simpsons. The episode begins with the Simpson family sitting down for breakfast, as they do every morning. Marge is busy cooking up a feast while Homer is lounging at the table, eating a plate of donuts. The family appears to be getting along well, until they receive some unexpected visitors: Maude Flanders' ghost and her widower, Ned.

Maude's ghost explains that she's been haunting Ned ever since her untimely death and that she's sick of it. Desperate to get her to stop, Ned begs the Simpsons to take her in for a while. Despite some hesitation, Marge agrees to let Maude's ghost stay with them.

As the Simpsons adjust to having a ghost in the house, they also begin to notice some changes in Ned. He seems more carefree and relaxed without Maude's constant nagging. Marge begins to worry that Ned is getting too comfortable living with them and starts to feel responsible for him.

Meanwhile, Bart and Lisa set out to win the grand prize at the school's science fair. They come up with a plan to build a machine that can predict the future, but they quickly realize that their invention has some unforeseen consequences.

As the day of the science fair approaches, tensions rise between the Simpsons and Ned. Marge struggles with her own co-dependency issues and must find a way to let go of her need to take care of Ned. However, when the future-predicting machine goes haywire, everyone's priorities suddenly shift.

In typical Simpsons fashion, Co-Dependent's Day tackles serious issues with humor and heart. The episode explores themes of loss, grief, and co-dependency in a way that is relatable and entertaining. With its clever writing, great voice-acting, and signature animation, this episode is a must-watch for any fan of the long-running series.
