'The Simpsons' Season 32 Episode 5: Homer kisses another woman, fans say 'Marge isn't gonna like this'

'Marge has come closer to cheating on Homer than he ever has with her. They should give him this one,' a fan wrote

Homer Simpson (Dan Castellaneta) and Marge (Julie Kavner) have been one of television's most well-known and tight-knit couples for over three decades now. They've remained together through thick and thin. However, that doesn't mean that their attentions haven't wavered from time to time. On the latest episode of 'The Simpsons', it's not just Homer's eyes that do the wandering, it's his lips, too, shocking longtime fans of the couple.

When the vivacious life of the party Lily (Olivia Coleman) is sentenced to America for being too fun for Britain to handle, she happens upons Moe's Bar, where she is almost immediately besotted by Homer Simpson. Homer, in the meanwhile, is low in spirits after his family go on vacation without him - but even so, he is blind to Lily's attentions. It's not until he chaperones a date between her and Montgomery Burns (Harry Shearer) that he starts to take notice of her - a fact that she takes full advantage of, pressing Homer to take her home, and then kissing him, right on her doorstep.

This has garnered quite some reaction from the fans. "Homer Kissed just kissed another woman, i am ashamed...Bad Homer" writes a fan of the show. "Ooh Lilly just kissed Homer Marge isn't gonna like this," writes one viewer. "Homer kissed another woman. How would Marge react if she saw that?" asks another. 

One fan compares Lily to Mindy - another woman who tempted Homer away from his marriage, writing, "I’m getting serious Homer/Mindy vibes from this Lily woman. Anyone else?" Mindy Simmons (Michelle Pfeiffer) first appeared on Season 9, Episode 5 of the show as a fellow employee that Homer is instantly smitten with. Of course, Marge has had her own temptations with other men during the show's history, and at least one fan feels that Homer deserves a little temptation of his own, writing, "Marge has come closer to cheating on Homer than he ever has with her. They should give him this one"

However, his marriage to Marge remains strong, as it sails through this episode. Despite Lily's literal siren song calling to him, Homer may have started walking towards Lily, but he ultimately turns around and comes home to Marge, reminding fans just why the couple is one they can depend on. "After all the women that came at Homer, I thought she might be the one to take Homer but Homer too loyal to leave Marge," writes a fan. "Homer Simpson is a childish, oafish buffoon. But he’s loving and loyal. And tonight’s episode proves why that’s so endearing," writes another. 

The next episode of 'The Simpsons' airs November 15, on FOX.
