You know Burns is being polite when he sends hired goons instead of petty thugs ...

[ajm]

The second "Hired goons?" gets me every time. One of the best jokes ever written.

[Ebola-Jones]

I hope he calls that vulture "Mr. Birds"

[mikegould]

I love the way that Homer says "Hired Goons?"

[Marmoset]

I love how Hired Goon # 1 straightens his tie before proceeding.

[jessetorres]

Is no one else gonna point out that for once Mr. Burns called Homer by his name and not "Simpson" like he does almost every other time?!

[RatelHBadger]

This is still one of the funniest 30 seconds in all of The Simpsons.
Homer basically gets abducted by the nicest well mannered Hired Goons, then almost immediately forgets it happened. That vulture shuddering still kills me every time, such a great gag all round!

[rosePetrichor]

Without the second repetition of 'Hired goons?' in the EXACT same confused tone this scene would be almost entirely forgettable, but I still remember it 20 years later for that reason. Great writing

[nickchambers]

I love that they actually identify as hired goons. Like it’s not a pejorative, it’s just their job description

[darthadipose]

"I prefer the hands-on touch you only get with hired goons" is wild

[galexeqe]

Love how they don't make an effort to call themselves anything else
"We are what we are"

[Randomlad.]

The internet has ruined the word "Goon".

[JC-wopy]

this is still funny 20 years later lol

[Chief-Brown-Eyes-Gold-Heart]

I like how the guy fixed his tie & shut Homer's door, very respectful & thoughtful of him😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[hiredgoons]

Oh man, we started a whole company off the love of this bit... and I still love this bit!

[bificommander]

Wizards of the coast when they want their Magic the Gathering cards back.

[Original_Flesh_Panopticon]

Who are you people? I Though i hired goons?

[dibbo]

Love how Burns’s Vulture Looks Exactly like him 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[reconbravo]

POV: You got some Magic the Gathering cards early

This will never get old, never stop being hilarious and brilliant.
