On this coming Sunday’s episode of The Simpsons, the couch gag will pay homage to the “Crystal Blue Persuasion” montage from September’s midseason finale of Breaking Bad. Wait. September? Really?

The original montage is below, for those who want to be crushed by unexpected nostalgia and/or fact-check the accuracy of the animated interpretation and/or grind their teeth down to dust with anticipation of the series’ last eight episodes ever:
