Classic scene featuring Homer and Bart at the Enriched Learning Center for Gifted Children. Upon arrival, Bart discovers that all the boys are wearing neckties: 

Bart: "Oh no, ties!”  
Homer: "Don't worry, son, you can have mine! Here, let me show you how to put on a tie (takes off his clip-on) The hook goes over the top, and these things go in there! (Homer kisses Bart) Now go on, boy, and pay attention. Because if you do, someday, you may achieve something that we Simpsons have dreamed about for generations: You may outsmart someone!"

EPISODE SYNOPSIS: 
"Bart the Genius" is the second episode of The Simpsons' first season. It originally aired on the Fox network in the United States on January 14th, 1990. It was the first ever episode to use the opening sequence, as well as the first regular episode. In the episode Bart cheats on an intelligence test and is declared a genius, so he is sent to a school for gifted children. Though he initially enjoys being treated as a genius, he begins to see the downside of his new life. This episode marked the first use of Bart's catchphrase "Eat my shorts". As the second episode produced, directly after the disastrous animation of "Some Enchanted Evening", the future of the series depended on how the animation turned out on this episode. The animation proved to be more acceptable and production continued.
