  17. In Itchy and Scratchy Land, Bart is disappointed to find the gift shop does not stock a personalised license plate with his name on it, but does have ones for Barry, Barclay, Bert and which other name? And, for a bonus point, can you tell me how many times that name is said in that episode

  18. In Bart vs Australia, Bart is subjected to a kicking up the bum after being indicted for fraud. Bart eventually agrees to the punishment, but dodges the kick at the last minute and moons the Australians, with which words written on his buttocks
