Around 17:50 mark. Sorry these are just Hulu links I've been posting lately.

Basically, the episode (spoilers ahead if you care - it's a hilarious episode if you love the show, too) has to do with the kids creating a fake religion to save their local aquarium and at the end the IRS agent loves it so much he wants to join. So, they have to put on a whole charade to try to dissuade him from joining, but he ends up finding out the truth after going into a jellyfish tank to get baptized, and subsequently getting stung.

Toward the end, the kids go to the IRS agent to apologize. Here is the quote I thought you guys would find interesting:

(Agent Flanley is sitting at his desk itching his jellyfish wounds)

Man over intercom: Agent Flanley, there are some children here for you. Did you order three children?

Flanley: Hmm. No, I didn't. But send them down.

Season 1, episode 1 aired on FOX in 2011. Pizzagate is really Restaurantgate. They clearly put the blueprint to a restaurant fronted Satanism operation in plain site. Let that sink in. Currently we see FOX distancing itself from the rest of mainstream media to be trusted again. FOX knows the ins and outs of this pedosatanic cannibalistic cabal. They aren't the only ones. Now we need a statistic of every child abducted when they were walking home from a family restaurant after hanging out with friends. Every one of those reports was likely cover up.

Two theories: 1. Trying to subliminally normalize a behavior or 2. Putting the topic out to masses as a giant, "fuck you," we do what we want

Are you kidding me, they arent mocking pizzagate. 98% of the population doesn't care or doesn't know. Just an innocent unrelated joke. The comedy in it is that 3 children don't belong in an IRS office.

You're kidding yourself if you think the makers of these shows, and others, aren't aware of PizzaGate. Firstly, they're satire. The only way to satirize anything it's to know about it; in this case, culture is the target. The Simpsons has had its finger on the pulse for decades. Bob's burgers is done by real comedians, who keep up voraciously. While I'm not saying that this particular episode or even this particular joke is or isn't, I am certain that our cause has been, is being, and will continue to be mocked on prime time, network television.

Love the show. I noticed it too. Family Guy hit on it last week with the sex slave who Joe failed to notice was the missing girl (missing since the 70s). Simpsons also had some weird shit a few weeks back about Homer's love for weiners made of "chicken butts" if I remember correctly.
