History

Baby hugo and bart

Conjoined twins Hugo and Bart

Bart, Lisa, and Maggie discovered Hugo after they heard strange sounds coming from the attic and after Homer spilled the beans about there being four Simpson children, As the "evil twin," Hugo had been consigned to living in the attic of the Simpson home and once a week was given a bucket of fish heads to eat because he was the evil one. Hugo also did experimental surgery to prepare for his eventual reattachment to Bart, and created a "Pigeon-Rat" in the process. The family later learned, however, that Bart was actually the evil twin, as Hugo's scar from when he and Bart separated was on the wrong side. Bart then took Hugo's place in the attic and was fed fish heads, while Hugo moved downstairs to live with the family. Bart was let back down in the family after the dinner scene with Hugo sitting at the table.

Trivia

  • In "Brother's Little Helper", when Bart was driven into paranoia due to Focusyn and went berserk, his facial appearance strongly resembled Hugo Simpson.
  • He is likely named after his, Bart, Lisa and Maggie's great-great-great uncle Hugo Simpson I, whom he and Bart heavily resemble.
  • He bears a resemblance to Quasimodo, the deformed bellringer from the novel The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, which was written by Victor Hugo.
  • His favorite food is fish heads (not like he had ever had anything else to eat before). He even got a plate of fish heads and a glass of milk when meeting Bart.
  • The Chalkboard gag for The Homer They Fall is "I am not my long-lost twin," possibly referencing Hugo.
  • In "The Girl Who Slept Too Little" when Bart is being dug into the ground, he resembles Hugo.
  • He seems to be based on Belial from the movie basket case as they were both born as Siamese twins who were separated at birth from their twin causing resentment and want to be reconnected with their twin.
