Episode Summary

The grand opening of the Mr Burns Casino

Mr. Burns opens up his own casino once gambling is legalized in Springfield, hiring Homer as a blackjack dealer despite his poor mathematics. Marge goes to the casino to collect Homer one evening, and becomes heavily addicted to the slot machines. Homer notices this and tries to get her to give up her addiction. Meanwhile, Bart opens up his own casino in the treehouse, where he has all kinds of entertainment such as magic tricks. Luckily he doesn't end up as insane as Mr. Burns who stops cutting his hair and becomes mad because he owns a casino.
