Krabappel believes this about Bart upon meeting him. The story ends with Burns climbing down the ravine in an attempt to retrieve the gold and subvert the trope, but we don't see whether he succeeds. No MacGuffin, No Winner: Marge, infuriated by the greed of those who are after the gold, dangles it over a chasm, and when they refuse to listen to reason, she drops it.Never Bring a Knife to a Gun Fight: Moe brings a baseball bat to a gunfight (or at least, a Mexican standoff), though he tries to pretend otherwise.It's possibly the most human thing he's ever done in the entire show.

She really believed in her power to make a difference in kids' lives, which was what caused her to stay and take the teaching job instead of skipping town with Moe.
