The Simpson's 1 sentence pitch & 3 act

SYNOPSIS 

Bart uses his new miniature "spy" camera to take candid pictures around
the household; meanwhile, Homer is preparing to go to a bachelor party
for his co-worker at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. While at the
party, Homer is invited to dance on stage with a stripper. Bart (who is
dining with the rest of the family in the next-door restaurant) uses his
camera to snap a photo of Homer and the dancer having a great time. At
school, Martin develops the picture, which - after he compliments Bart's
work - gets distributed around school, and eventually around town.
Marge sees the photo and is outraged. Homer arrives home, where
Marge immediately confronts her husband and kicks him out of the
house. Eventually, Marge agrees to let him back in on the condition he
take Bart around to meet the stripper and show that she is not a sex
object. After almost winding up on stage at another of the dancer's
performances, Homer does as he is asked and all is forgiven.
