What about...

Those wacky scenes where the character just runs away from their problem? e.g. -(Las Vegas Episode) Flanders and Homer ponder what do to with their new found wives...Flanders asks how theyr'e going to approach them...camera cuts to Homer running away

-(Episode where Homer Climbs the mountain for the PowerBar type company) Grampa's teeth fall out of his mouth, the teeth fall right into the bite mark of the dead frozen guy. Grandpa says "......THIS is what I think happened...." then proceeds to run away.

-(2nd time Simpsons get a horse) After the horse has dove from the platform into the small tub of water, Wiggum goes up to the horses owner, "Ya got a permit for that?" Guy says (while walking backwards to his car) "Sure, let me just grab it..." Then proceeds to hop into car and drive off into the sunset.

Did I miss any????

In "e-i-e-i-(annoyed grunt)", Snake is challenged by Homer to a duel. Homer calls Snake a coward, and Snake replies:

"Would a coward do this?"

He reaches into his jacket as if to draw a weapon, and then runs off.

Blood Feud (7F22) -

Homer (after attempting to water the mail): I guess it wouldn't do any good to run, cause you're a mail-lady and you know my name and address and everything, huh? Mail-lady: That's right. Homer: Well, I'm still gonna run! (runs away)

The Springfield Files (3G01) -

Leonard Nimoy: And so, from this simple man came the proof that we are not alone in the universe. I'm Leonard Nimoy. Good night. Teenage stagehand (off-camera): Uh, Mr. Nimoy, we have ten minutes left. Nimoy: Oh. Uh, fine. Let me just get something out of my car. (Runs off, cars starts, drives off) Stagehand: Uh, I don't think he's coming back.

And there's the send-up of "The Right Stuff" in Deep Space Homer (1F13), when Homer, Race Banyon and Buzz Aldrin are walking towards the camera in slo-mo, approaching the shuttle. Homer looks up in awe, becomes frightened and lets out the classic, slowed-down "Noooooo!" Then takes off running (squeaking!) in the opposite direction.

You missed the best one of all. Homer repeatedly running from the hospital when Grampa needs a transplant.

Lenny: "You let your little girl do donwtown on a bus!" Homer: "No, or course not. But now I have to leave on a comletely unrelated matter. Liiiiiisaaa"

I don't know if this really qualifies, but in Mad Mad Mad Marge Otto ran away from his wedding. Same episode: Marge "I'm not crazy!" Runs away

Not sure if it qualifies, but when the man selling wax lips at the candy convention fails to convince Homer of its 1000 uses... he pretends to walk down some steps. (into the floor)

Sorry, Marge, but your cooking has only two moves - Shake- and Bake.

You love Shake and Bake. You used to put it in your coffee.

...gotta go!

*Homer grabs two pork chops off of the plate and runs away*

<snip examples>

The episode where Homer goes to Clown College, and the mobsters are asking Krusty for money. He says he needs to go to the bathroom, and proceeds to run out the door, hop in a car, and hop on a plane. To all of this, Legs says "When he's done in there, I gotta go."

I think Lionel Hutz runs from situations a few times. I recall the THOH ep where Homer eats the forbidden donut. Lionel sets up the trial so that he has unlimited bathroom breaks. Later explains that a contract is binding or something like that. Then pauses, asks for a bathroom break, and proceeds to run out the door and drive away.

I'm hazy on that whole situation as it's been a while since I've seen it.

I'm pretty sure that there are other Hutz moments.
