List of episodes

"The War of the Simpsons" is the twentieth episode of The Simpsons second season. It first started on the Fox network in the United States on May 2, 1991. In this episode, Homer gets drunk at a party and embarrasses his wife Marge, so she decides to sign them up for a "marriage counseling retreat." Homer finds out that the retreat will be held near a lake and packs his fishing stuff, even though Marge tells him that all they will be doing is resolving their differences. At the lake the next morning, Homer tries to sneak away to go fishing, but Marge catches him and he takes a walk instead. On the dock, Homer finds a fishing pole and a small rowboat. Homer rows out on the lake and catches his fish, but when he sees an upset Marge is looking at him, he quickly lets it go to show his love for her.
