After he has crashed Chief Wiggum's car Bart is sentenced by severe female Judge Harm and ordered to be tethered to Homer - who has proved himself to be a bad parent - until further notice. When Homer and Marge attempt to untie the tether the judge humiliates them in public and they go to her houseboat to display a banner terming her a 'Meanie'. Unfortunately they sink the houseboat by mistake ,destroying her grandmother's quilt, but,before she can sentence them, Judge Harm is replaced by the more benevolent Judge Snyder.
