I couldn’t find this on my own, perhaps my GoogleFu is weak today. Looking for a clip from The Simpson’s The Crepes of Wrath, iirc, where he’s in France for a while, and needs help, but can’t speak French, then suddenly he can speak French. Any help?
Here’s a link to the full episode with Turkish subtitles. The revelation is at 18:40 or so.
Well, never mind, then
I found several links to the episode using Bing video search, but none of them are in English.
Je vous remercie beaucoup!
Have you been drinking wine with antifreeze in it?
That’s a very serious offence.
That scene was such a nice, sly dig at the French. All the things Bart tells the gendarmerie, that he’s been kidnapped, forced to work in the fields, sleeping in a barn, freezing, starved, it’s not until he mentions that the guys are making wine with antifreeze that he finally reacts with outrage!
