    Knife Goes In, Guts come out. That’s what Osaka Seafood Concern’s all about!

    Spare my life, and I will AAAAHHHHH

    30 Minutes Over Tokyo is the episode.

    Also OP is right the references to Mr. Sparkle were not in this one.

      So I was going to say Mr Sparkle isn’t actually in this episode but there is a quick reference, but no actual Sparkle.

      In the episode “In Marge We Trust”, where we learn Homer aka Fish-Bulb is Mr. Sparkle, we have a commercial featuring a man interviewing a two headed cow,

      In this specific episode “Thirty Minutes Over Tokyo”, during a commercial break after the seizure robots we briefly see a similar scene with a different colored cow,

      So still a reference, but no actual Mr. Sparkle.
