Despite this, the Simpsons kids are sure Krusty is actually innocent, especially Bart, who is still loyal to him. As Krusty is sentenced to jail, a citywide campaign to destroy the clown's merchandise is led by Reverend Lovejoy (Bart's room is emptied) and his show is replaced by The Side-Show Bob Cavalcade of Whimsy, starring Krusty's former stooge, featuring readings of famous literary works and signing off with Cole Porter's "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye".
In court, Krusty spends his time fooling around, also admitting being illiterate (in spite of his famous "Give a Hoot, Read a Book" literacy campaigns) as well as betting on league sports, which is apparently illegal in the State of Springfield. By the time he gets home, Bart and Lisa discover their hero has been accused of robbery.
One evening, while on the way home (where Patty and Selma show Marge and the kids some vacation slides), Homer goes for some ice cream at the Kwik-E-Mart, which is robbed by a man dressed as a clown, which Homer identifies as Krusty in the line-up. Plot SummaryAll the kids in Springfield love Krusty the Klown, and each day after school, they religiously watch his hijinks on TV, which generally consist of slapstick routines featuring Sideshow Bob, Krusty's sidekick, as the victim.
