I'm going nuts trying to figure out which episode this is. I vaguely remember an episode where Rod and Todd are speaking gibberish for some reason (possibly sick with the flu?), but Ned thinks they are speaking in tongues and is proud of them for it.

It's not the episode "Marge in Chains" (I know that one of them speaks gibberish from the delirium of flu in this episode, and the other thinks that he is speaking in tongues, but this is not the episode I'm looking for.)

At first I thought it might be the episode where Homer is Mr. X and makes up the story about the flu shots being mind-controlling, which Ned responds to by saying, "I knew it! Now aren't you glad we don't believe in inoculations?" *Rod and Todd are shown, shivering, and shakily go "Yay," and then one of them reaches out, hallucinating, saying, "Mommy?" However, they don't speak tongues in this scene.

I've scoured the Internet for hours. I've posted this question twice on Yahoo Answers, and also posted it on facebook, all with no luck. You all are my last hope! Please don't let me down! Am I totally making this up, or is there an episode (besides "Marge in Chains") where the Flanders kids "speak in tongues"?

P.S. In case you're wondering, this is for my religious history class. We're studying Pentecostalism right now.

Thank you so so so so so much!

Thank you for responding. As I said, "Marge in Chains" isn't the episode I was looking for. Do you mean that you think that IS the only episode where they speak tongues?

Hello, I'm Gary X, I run the guild so you don't have to.

The episode Marge In Chains features a storyline about Springfield getting Osaka Flu from infected juice machines imported from Japan- The Flanders catch the flu after Ned watches Fox ("The network slogan is true- 'Watch Fox and be damned for all eternity'!") which leads to Rod believing Todd is speaking in tongues, to which Ned replies that he [Todd] is just "delerious from fever." So technically, no-one in the show's ever spoken in tongues in that episode.

I seem to vaguely recall another episode where a character begun speaking in tongues, but it may have been a Treehouse of Horror episode, and if so, it doesn't follow the canon of the rest of the series.

I hope I was some help to you, if I find out anything else I'll get back to you.
