"He's nervous, and then Fat Tony says that he's got to kill some people and then he's really nervous because he actually wants to do it," executive producer Al Jean reveals. There may be good in Dan, too, though: He also joins Homer's bowling team.

Carell's episode is slated to air next fall on Fox.

The Simpsons airs Sundays at 8/7c on Fox.
