Simpsons Top 100 Countdown
#33 Mountain of Madness
Season 8, Episode 12 (Guide from the Simpsons Archive)

Burns decides to add some excitement to the workplace by conducting a fire drill. The outright incompetence of his employees leads him to schedule a teamwork building exercise. The employees, plus the Simpson family (Homer mistakenly believed it was a family retreat) meet at Mt. Useful. Burns announces that the employees will form teams of two and must make it to a cabin located on the snow-covered mountain, and the last team to make it will be fired. Homer is paired with Burns, and they make it to the cabin well ahead of everyone else by using a snowmobile that Burns had hidden on the mountain and engage in pleasant conversation. While in the house, they are trapped by an avalanche, and start getting cabin fever, turning against each other in their madness. while fighting, they cause the propane tank to burst, which propells the house from under the snow, leaving everyone safe and sound. Memorable moments include chipper Burns, drill selection, employee reaction to the fire drill, fight over teamwork, family discussion on teamwork, parking, choosing teammates, cheating, entry to the cabin, sitting, Homer's new technique, avalanches galore, telegraph, Simpson kids "helping" Smithers, corpse-handling gloves and accompanied discussion, the drunk, burning moose, building real people out of snow, hallucination armies, rocket house, Lenny's misfortune, and never wanting to see each other again.
