Plot When Homer discovers that the town has split into two area codes, he's outraged. He also learns that the people who live on the rich side of town get to keep the old one. Homer splits the town off into Olde Springfield and New Springfield. Homer is elected the Mayor of New Springfield. After a few days, Homer decides to build a wall to block Olde Springfield from their sights. New Springfield's residents leave for Olde Springfield over the wall. Homer tries to win them back by getting the Who (voiced as themselves) to move to New Springfield rather than Olde Springfield. Olde Springfield tries to confront Homer, and the Who suggest that people in Springfield just get phones that have speed-dial.
