Elton John is an English musician. John ended up in Springfield airport as his chandelier in his private jet malfunctioned. Homer thought that Apu had got him for Valentine's Day as a gift for his wife Manjula and so shoved him into a dog cage to keep Apu from seeing him. Homer was wrong and Apu had instead ordered the skywriter Fantastic Dan to write "I Love You Manjula" in the sky. John chewed his way out of the cage and met up with Apu on the runway; the two narrowly escaped death as Dan's aeroplane almost hit them as Homer and Dan were fighting on board.
