Things I love about this scene….
- How “a green cookie on St. Patrick’s Day” is the final straw for Mr. Burns when he reads the union’s contract.
- The fact Grandfather Burn’s goons are descendants of the exact same guys that Mr. Burns uses now.
- Grandfather Burns totally ignoring the clearly planned out threat of an eventual union being formed because he finds the notion of Japanese takeovers utterly absurd.
- Burns’s line “Atoms!!!!…..one two three fo….
SIX of them!!!”
- The fact that six atoms were actually and carefully drawn in the guy’s pocket
- The fact that the Burns family has been in the “atom smashing” business for decades…before nuclear fission was a thing.
