This round, three episodes enter, one advances; repeat as necessary (six times in all). After that, yet again three enter and one advance (just twice for that stage).
I never did announce "wild card" episodes (or do anything useful with the thread in question) but upon reflection two episodes are (to me) obviously the best choices; you'll see them when the time comes.
Today's nominees: (if an episode has gotten this far, you're presumably familiar with it, though as always the summary is linked)
51. 8F16 (SI-316 / S03E16) Bart the Lover
94. 1F10 (SI-510 / S05E13) Homer and Apu
124. 2F19 (SI-619 / S06E21) The PTA Disbands
Comment at will. Preferential balloting remains in play. From this point on I think I won't lead off with my own ranking, partly because in this case at least I'm just not sure yet.

None of these strike me as top 5.
I suppose trendsetter shall I be:
1. Homer and Apu -- The singing, the traveling, the secret cameras. The show has more of this than any of the other two.
2. The PTA Disbands -- It has the threat of robots and purple monkey dishwashers. So be it.
3. Bart the Lover -- A world without a zinc pulls at my heartstrings, but I'm not so high on the rest of my episode.
