Role[]
Jack Crowley was imprisoned for shooting Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, but was later released with Marge Simpson's help after she noticed Jack's excellent skills in art. With the help from Marge, Jack was able to receive a job at Springfield Elementary to put his artistic skills to good use.
With that in mind, Jack paints a mural for Springfield Elementary, depicting a warrior woman riding a puma. Everyone in the school likes it, but Principal Skinner deems it inappropriate and demands Jack to tone it down to a more childish and colorful image. Unfortunately, everyone hates the new mural, even Ned Flanders. Instead of taking responsibility for the mural, Skinner passes the blame to Jack, despite Jack doing exactly what was on Skinner’s napkin.
Enraged by this turn of events, Jack angrily burns the mural. Marge believes that Jack was innocent, until she witnessed him burn Skinner's car in revenge. Marge was mad Jack for lying to her, and lost faith in helping him change. He is last seen being escorted back to prison by Chief Wiggum.
