I Married Marge
"I Married Marge" is the twelfth episode of the third season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It originally aired on Fox in the United States on December 26, 1991. In the episode, Marge worries that she may be pregnant again and visits Dr. Hibbert's office. While anxiously waiting at home, Homer tells Bart, Lisa, and Maggie the story of his and Marge's marriage and Bart's birth. The episode was written by Jeff Martin and directed by Jeffrey Lynch.
"I Married Marge" was the second flashback episode of The Simpsons after season two's "The Way We Was", which focused on how Homer and Marge met. It features cultural references to The Empire Strikes Back, Charlie's Angels, and Ms. Pac-Man. The title of the episode is a play on the American television series I Married Joan. Since airing, "I Married Marge" has received mostly positive reviews from television critics. It acquired a Nielsen rating of 11.9 and was the highest-rated show on Fox the week it aired.
The episode was the first of three about the births of the Simpsons children, this one covering Bart's birth, with Lisa's covered in "Lisa's First Word" in the fourth season, and Maggie's covered in the sixth-season episode "And Maggie Makes Three". The episode also expands upon the family's origins as a result of Marge falling pregnant with Bart, briefly referred to in "The Way We Was", and introduces key moments, such as Bart's conception at a mini-golf course, which would ultimately become a major part of the series' canon.
Marge worries she may be pregnant again after a home pregnancy test is inconclusive, so she drives to Dr. Hibbert's office to take another test. While Marge is gone, Homer tells Bart, Lisa, and Maggie the story of their marriage and Bart's birth.
In 1980, Homer is working at a mini golf course while dating Marge. Some time after having sex inside a castle on the golf course, Marge discovers she is pregnant and tells Homer. Homer proposes marriage to Marge, and she accepts. They get married at a seedy wedding chapel across the state line and spend their wedding night on the living room couches at the Bouvier family's house.
Homer discovers his wages from the golf course are insufficient to support his growing family. He applies for a job at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, but he does not get the job, partially because of his lack of experience with nuclear technology, and partially because Smithers favored two other applicants who were members of the same college fraternity as him. Homer gets jobs at several smaller businesses, but he is quickly fired from all of them. Due to financial difficulties, their newly-purchased baby supplies and Marge's wedding ring are repossessed. Feeling guilty, Homer leaves to find steady work, hoping to return once able to support his family. He leaves Marge a note explaining his departure and she is devastated when she reads it.
Patty and Selma eat at a fast-food restaurant where they see Homer working there as a cashier. Selma feels compelled to inform Marge, but Patty, who hates Homer, advises her not to. When Selma sees how devastated Marge is, she tells her about Homer's job. Homer and Marge reconcile, and Homer goes to the power plant, barges into Mr. Burns's office, and vigorously tells Burns that if he was hired at the power plant, he would be unwaveringly subservient. Impressed, Burns hires Homer.
At the hospital, Homer announces that he has found work at the plant, allowing him to pay for Bart's imminent delivery. Bart uses Homer's cigarette lighter to set his tie on fire.
