is a take off of the album and song "Magical Mystery Tour" by The Beatles.

Episode details

She would like to show it to a music class but it is not for sale and we
cannot find when it will air again.
Does anyone have a copy of this episode that they care to share?
We will pay shipping, cost of video and anything else in order to reimburse

Maybe your music teacher has a copy to share.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Synopsis
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
Marge takes Bart, Lisa, and Milhouse to the library to find books for their
school reports, only to find no books on the shelves. In lieu of no books,
Marge tells the kids some history tales.
Henry VIII
In this version of the Henry VIII story, Homer is King Henry VIII, in search
of a woman who can bear him a son. He gets a daughter from his wife Margerin
of Aragon and divorces her, though only after executing the Lord Chancellor,
Sir Thomas More (Flanders) by shooting him out of a cannon ("canonizing")
after he objects. Homer then marries Anne Boleyn and executes her. After
several executions, Homer still does not have a son. Asking Marge to forgive
him, Marge suffocates Homer.
Lewis and Clark and Sacagawea
Lewis (Lenny) and Clark (Carl) are assigned to explore the west. Meeting a
tribe of Native Americans, they are given the guidance of Sacagawea (Lisa).
Eventually, Lisa gets fed up with Lenny and Carl and tries to leave. She is
confronted by a mountain lion and is saved by Lenny and Carl (who remembered
how to scare a mountain lion). They then reach the Pacific Northwest and
name it Eugene, Oregon.
Mozart and Salieri
In a parody of the movie Amadeus, Bart is Mozart. He is a big hit in Vienna,
which causes a rivalry with Salieri (Lisa). At Bart's opera, "The Musical
Fruit", she poisons Emperor Burns with a sleeping drug. As everyone does
what the Emperor does, they all fall asleep. Bart then goes down the path of
the has-been rock star and dies. Lisa then tries to submit her work to the
Emperor. However, she is beaten by Beethoven (Nelson) and goes to a mental
hospital.
Lisa, however, denounces Marge's telling of the lives of Mozart and Salieri,
noticing that Mozart and Salieri had better relations in their time, and
notes of the similarities to Amadeus. Homer then says that Tom Hulce, who
starred in Amadeus, also starred in National Lampoon's Animal House.
