It was (or may soon be?) Super Tuesday so WEE are getting political and watching Season 19's E Pluribus Wiggum, a gimmick that sort of resembles an episode with a plot that barely resembles a story.

They discuss Season 13's Papa's Got a Brand New Badge, an episode where Homer becomes a vigilante after Lisa's stuff is stolen. Wait, not a vigilante, he starts a private security company, so it's different from that other episode.
