Ep 6. Dead Putting Society

In The Simpsons season 2 episode 6, titled "Dead Putting Society", the Simpson family gets a peek into the world of competitive golfing when Homer and Bart sign up to participate in a father-son miniature golf tournament against their rivals, Ned Flanders and his son Todd.

Throughout the episode, tensions rise as the two teams engage in various forms of one-upmanship and sabotage on the miniature golf course. Homer, seeking to prove his dominance over his neighbor, enlists the help of his golfing buddy and caddy, Bart, to practice day and night in preparation for the big tournament.

However, things take a turn when Bart, feeling the pressure of living up to his father's expectations, begins to doubt his own abilities. As a result, he seeks advice from the famous golfer Lee Carvallo (voiced by guest star James Earl Jones) through a video game.

Meanwhile, Ned Flanders takes a more spiritual approach to golfing, focusing on mindfulness and relaxation. As the day of the tournament approaches, tensions between the two teams reach a boiling point, and it becomes clear that victory will ultimately come down to which team has the most heart.

"Dead Putting Society" deals with themes of rivalry, friendship, and the pressure to succeed, all while delivering classic Simpsons humor and heart. Fans of the show will enjoy seeing the characters navigate the world of miniature golf, and will likely relate to the struggles of both fathers and sons as they attempt to outdo each other on the course.
