Lisa, on the other hand, remains skeptical of these claims, instead seeking to uncover the truth behind the skeleton's origins. Despite facing ridicule and disbelief from her classmates and other members of the town, Lisa persists in her investigation, ultimately discovering a surprising explanation for what the skeleton actually represents.
Meanwhile, Homer becomes embroiled in a scheme to make money off the skeleton's alleged miracle-working powers, leading to a series of comedic mishaps and misunderstandings.
