Eh. What's it building up to? Nothing. A cynical summation can work
but
here it feels like a cheat of a rug-pull. And it doesn't even seem self-consistent, let alone consistent with the series; Homer wasn't
an
enervated zombie after work before (unless the idea is that he never
works hard enough anyway), and neither was Marge after a long day.
How
IMHO, I think that the gag here is that there really was something
implanted into their heads and the company lied about it. I have never
seen the show that was being spoofed so I am not sure if there is any
parallel there or not.
I thought it wasn't a bad episode, not great but it did keep my
attention.
