S11E2: Brother's Little Helper
When Bart commits an extremely destructive prank, he is given Focusyn, a pill to help him concentrate in school. At first the results are impressive, and then Bart starts believing in a conspiracy involving spy satellites and major league baseball.
Episode Ending
In "Simpsonlar - S11E2," also known as "Brother's Little Helper," Bart gets diagnosed with ADHD and starts taking a new medication called Focusyn. Predictably, things go sideways when Bart becomes paranoid and believes Major League Baseball is spying on the town. Because, of course, that’s what happens when Bart takes meds. Bart’s paranoia reaches its peak at a baseball game where he hijacks a tank, aiming to take down a satellite he believes is watching him. As you do. The chaos is resolved when Mark McGwire shows up to distract everyone with some good old-fashioned home run hitting, proving once again that in Springfield, celebrities solve everything. In the end, Bart stops taking Focusyn and goes back to his usual antics, leaving his parents and Principal Skinner to shrug off the whole ordeal as just another day in the life of Springfield. Baseball players stop being secret agents, and tanks are no longer part of Bart’s daily routine — until next time.
