Eight is Too Much is the third mission in Level 5 of The Simpsons: Hit and Run. It focuses on Apu collecting diapers for his octuplets.

Summary

Apu goes to the hospital and Dr. Hibbert tells Apu that his octuplets are about to make the hospital's waiting room dirty, and that Apu's diapers aren't covered by his insurance. He tells Apu about the parents of 9 from Shelbyville who have nabbed every diaper in town. Apu decides to get the diapers from them post-haste, but he needs to buy a large car from Homer, since he can't fit all of his diapers into his car.

Objectives

• Talk to Dr. Hibbert
• Get Homer's Custom Built Car (Or any other vehicle at a phone booth)
• Get into your vehicle
• Hit the van and collect the diapers
• Drive to the hospital
• Talk to Dr. Hibbert

Transcript

Julius Hibbert: I'm afraid we have a medical emergency.

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon: (Gasps) Oh no, my babies!

Julius Hibbert: Your babies are about to go to the bathroom all over my waiting room. And diapers aren't covered by your insurance. Ooh, you better hurry, I heard the parents of the Shelbyville 9 are grabbing every diaper in town.

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon: I will get the diapers, but there is no way I could fit them in my car. Maybe Mr. Homer will have a large gas-guzzling American vehicle that I could use.

(Apu goes over to the hospital car park for Homer's car)

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon: Mr. Homer, sir, do you have an over-sized vehicle that I might be borrowing?

Homer Simpson: Borrowing? No! Selling to you at an insanely high price? Yes!

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon: Fine, whatever.

(Apu collects the diapers from the Shelbyville van and goes back to Hibbert)

Apu Nahasapeemapetilon: Quickly, cover my incotenent children's tooshies!

Julius Hibbert: (chuckles) That was close, another minute and my office would look like the Ganges River.

Trivia

• The mission's title is a reference to the 1970s/80s ABC sitcom Eight Is Enough.
• Despite Apu saying that the diapers won't fit in his Longhorn, the player can actually use the Longhorn (or any other vehicle) during the mission by swapping the Car Built For Homer for it.
• In the game files, there is an unused objective, re-enabling it shows that it is mostly useless. The objective requires the player to drive to the Shelbyvillian's Van (in front of the Hospital) before collecting the diapers. The HUD icon is the diaper icon used in this mission, and the objective text reads "HIT THE VAN AND COLLECT THE DIAPERS". This objective may have been dummied out because the player has to drive to the Hospital in order to start the mission.
• In the dialogue files, there's an unused conversation (c_heehee_1_convinit_hom_l5m3.rsd) meant for Homer after you purchase his car. He says: "Thank you, come again! Hehehehe!"
