* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: Marge ended up taking the money with the excuse being she wanted to experience the adventures of life like Homer and the kids. Marge has had plenty of episodes in this season alone where she focused on guilt tripping Homer then actually going on adventure. Furthermore she and Homer ended up making Abe TheScapegoat so unlike when Homer stole Bart’s money she doesn’t have to face any consequences for her actions.
