Despite the whole town standing up to him , he activates the sun @-@ blocking device , thinking himself invincible . He walks into an alley , obscured from view , and says : " Oh it 's you , what are you so happy about ? ... I see . I think you 'd better drop it . " He struggles with someone until a gunshot is heard . He stumbles out into the open , wounded , and collapses on the town 's sundial . The townspeople find him and Marge tells all of them that since Burns has angered so many people recently , just about anyone could have been the shooter .
