Background[]
The Simpsons is the longest running animated comedy series of all time, debuting in 1989 and is slated to continue its run until at least the year 2021. The show is set in the fictional town of Springfield, where the majority of its residents are yellow-skinned and have four fingers on each hand. It is named after the Simpsons family of the husband and wife team of Homer and Marge and their three children of Lisa (smart), Bart (below average student and troublemaker) and baby Maggie, plus many other characters and events that are intertwined with their lives are also showcased.
Testoster-Zone, a local hangout, is shown during "The Daughter Also Rises" episode.
Episode[]
Bart and his friend Milhouse Van Houten are going over the valentines they had received for Valentine’s Day. Marge chastises the two for watching too much tv during this nice day, along with spending too much time afterwards watching various online presentations. Due to watching Mythcrackers, they later decide they would be able to receive more valentines by disproving several local urban myths.
Marge also told Homer that he could do whatever he wanted on this day just as long as he took Bart with them, which led them to the Testoster-Zone center.
Lisa also meets and falls in love with a boy.
Testoster-Zone/Arcade[]
Testoster-Zone is an entertainment center that has batting cages (which the machines that throw baseballs have two speeds to them, being slow and fast) and an arcade, which several of its games dispenses prize tickets and it has a prize redemption center. Jeremy Freedman is an employee there (see Trivia section below).
It is assumed the games run on quarters due to the arcade having a change machine.
