What’s the story with the original picture on the right? I didn’t see this episode.

From memory, I believe it is a picture of distraught Parisians watching the Germans parade into Paris during WW2.

It’s from this episode: [Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens, and Gays - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marge_vs._Singles%2C_Seniors%2C_Childless_Couples_and_Teens%2C_and_Gays)

Specifically, Milhouse is crying because Moe ‘fixed’ the R in Toys R Us as part of a campaign against children in Springfield.
