At the end of Old Man, it was a JOKE you see The Simpsons is a COMEDY they do that sometimes.

Aah, I see. I thought you mean it was Lisa's joke towards Homer. Wink
Let's say that to him and see how he reacts! Funny, isn't it?

Anyway... of course that was writers' joke, everyone here understands this, and I hope you understand that we understand it, too. But that doesn't explain anything: even if that was a joke, it was still Lisa's act, and I was trying to understand her motives. Janglewolf already explained it to me well, so your one-liner wasn't really necessary, especially after discovering that there were no deep thoughts behind it. Mad

Of course you understand that here we analyze every moment on the Simpsons, be it a "joke" moment or a "serious" moment... this can be seen because of the extensive discussion of the Marge and the meat juice in Lisa's food moment discussion in the Marge and her elder daughter thread.

If you don't like that you don't need to participate.

Look at that hand, lying there
The room is dark, she shows no fear
I'm lying still, my eyes are wide
My heart is pumping, I'm still alive

I'm still awake against my will
What will it ever take
To still this burning in me?

"She didn't know she would cause Homer to have another heart attack... and it wasn't like she insulted him or anything"
That's what I say - the man with some acceptable life experience wouldn't never did that nonsense like giving absolutely unnecesary specification and not predicting the consequences of own deeds. At least it is under punishment at usual schools where you must not rise with your "wisdom", there's even no need for Marge to have a hand somehow. :-\ Her childhood is the only justification. And it's more than enough for this moment. We  have no right to demand from her to act always like adult person.

I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree here...
I don't think this moment puts Lisa at fault in any way, really. It wasn't necessary to tell Homer the real amount, true, but I don't blame her in any way for doing so. If a grown man had done the same, I wouldn't hold him accountable for it. Anyway, I'm probably just repeating myself...

I doubt this question would have appear if we knew Lisa's reaction to what has happened after her words. But the episode has ended right after that scene... Sad so it stays in the dark for us. But I believe that she felt very sorry right after she saw her Dad losing consciousness once again...
