Line 21:
[[Superintendent Chalmers]] visits [[Seymour Skinner|Principal Skinner]] at Springfield Elementary School to show off his newly purchased 1979 [[Honda Accord]]. Chalmers is distraught when he discovers the car's [[hood ornament]] is missing. Skinner orders a search of every student's locker which reveals that [[Nelson Muntz]], the [[Bullying|school bully]], is the culprit. As punishment, Nelson is forced to return all stolen items found in his locker to their owners and perform janitorial work with [[Groundskeeper Willie]].
 
Lisa is caught staring at Nelson during band practice and unwittingly causes a commotion among the band students. After she receives [[School discipline#Detention|detention]] and is forced to [[TheWriting Simpsons opening sequence#chalkboard gaglines|write a contrite messagelines on athe chalkboard]], she realizes she has developed a crush on Nelson. She asks [[Milhouse Van Houten|Milhouse]] to pass a love note to him in class, but Nelson thinks Milhouse wrote the love note and beats him. After Milhouse is taken to the hospital, Lisa confesses to Nelson that she wrote the note and soon she spends more time with him, inviting him to her house and even visiting Nelson's own.
 
At [[Marge Simpson]]'s suggestion, Lisa vows to turn Nelson from a troublemaker into a sweet, well-behaved young man. She forcibly dresses him in sharp clothing and takes him to the Springfield Observatory. To distract Lisa, Nelson kisses her, but finds he has fallen for Lisa in the process. However, the influence of Nelson's friends [[List of recurring The Simpsons characters#Jimbo Jones|Jimbo]], [[List of recurring The Simpsons characters#Dolph Starbeam|Dolph]] and [[List of recurring The Simpsons characters#Kearney Zzyzwicz|Kearney]] prevails when they convince him to [[Vandalism|vandalize]] Principal Skinner's house. After Skinner calls the police, the four boys flee. Nelson takes refuge at Lisa's house and insists he is innocent; Lisa believes him until he accidentally reveals he was involved in the boys' prank. Lisa realizes that she cannot reform Nelson and gently ends their relationship. On her way home she runs into Milhouse, who is delighted to hear that she is no longer seeing Nelson.
