The Odyssey of Lisa's Undergarments

Once upon a time, there was a family called the Simpsons. Marge was the loving mother and Lisa was her precocious and wise daughter. One day, when Lisa was playing in the backyard, a stranger approached. He was quite friendly, and asked Marge if Lisa could accompany him on a walk to the park. Thinking it would be a nice break for her daughter, Marge agreed, not realizing that this stranger was up to no good. Before they left, Lisa asked Marge if she could bring one of her favorite undergarments with her. But the stranger quickly said that it wasn't necessary, and convinced Marge that it would be better if she left it behind. Marge, trusting the stranger, agreed. Once the two arrived at the park, Lisa was horrified to discover the stranger had taken her undergarment! When Marge found out what had happened, she was livid. She and Lisa rushed home to tell Homer and waited for the stranger to return. When the stranger did come back, Marge and Homer interrogated him until he finally revealed where he had taken the undergarment: to a seedy motel across town. They immediately drove there and, sure enough, they found Lisa’s undergarment. Marge and Homer were relieved that Lisa's undergarment was safely returned, but ever curious, Lisa asked, "What happened to the man?" Marge, who was still seething with anger, said gruffly, "Let's just say he won't be bothering us anymore."
