SLH Presence:

- Sideshow Bob is arrested for the first time
Minimum Time Spanned: 1 afternoon/evening, 5 days (Let's say Friday - Wednesday)
Canon: Krusty says "I didn't do it," like it's his catchphrase. Homer said Krusty had big red hair. Krusty's makeup comes off. Other than that, it can all be canon.
Favorite Moments:
- "Why did the clown cross the road? To rob a Kwik-E-Mart. The news story behind that engimatic half-joke, right after this commercial message."
- Krusty's lawyer, after Krusty is found guilty: "Gah! I knew it! This happens to me every time!"
Review: Great episode. I really like Sideshow Bob, and I love his introduction as an educated scholar, rather than buffoonish sidekick. There are a lot of great lines in this episode, so it was hard picking a favorite moment. And it was a nice "Bart and Lisa team up and solve a mystery" story. I can forgive the flaws of this episode. A+
