Lisa the Iconoclast · Season 7, Episode 16
In Lisa the Iconoclast, Springfield’s civic motto gives grandeur to its founder and to the community celebrating him. Lisa uncovers a pirate identity beneath the noble founding story, yet ultimately lets the celebration continue because the ideal still has value to the town. The invented word gives the slogan both pomp and comic force.
