Summary: Aunt Selma realizes that she might wind up dying all alone and thinks that having a baby can relieve her loneliness. To test her maternal instincts, she takes Bart and Lisa to Duff Gardens, an amusement park, where she realizes that parenthood isn't all it's cracked up to be. At the park, Lisa gets high by drinking the water in the Little Land of Duff ride, and Bart misbehaves in his own unique way. Shaken by the experience, Selma is pleased to have no kids of her own and accepts her life and everyone in it, including Jub Jub, her pet iguana.

TRIVIA

Of the immediate Simpson family, Lisa is the only one that has never been fully naked at any period of time. However, her scene near the end of the episode dressed in only a towel is the closest she has ever come to being completely naked.
Running joke: The interstate diner waitress, the fine-restaurant waitress, and the sperm bank receptionist are all the same female character, right down to the voice and uniform.
