Allison Taylor
Allison Taylor (voiced by
Winona Ryder) is a
fictional character, seen on
September 11,
1994 in
The Simpsons episode
Lisa's Rival. In this episode
Lisa feels as if she's going to have to work a little bit more now that a new student has arrived at
Springfield Elementary, who is not only as smart as Lisa, or maybe smarter, but she's pretty, a great
saxophone player, and a great diorama builder. Afterwards Lisa tries to be her friend but she's full of envy and jealousy, especially with the arrival of the annual "Dioramarama", which is a competition of building dioramas. Allison already has her project set which is
The Tell-Tale Heart, by
Edgar Allan Poe. Using
Bart's help Lisa decides to pull a cruel prank on her. She switched Allison's Tell-Tale Heart diorama with a rotten
cow's heart. Lisa regretted at the last minute but it was too late: Allison had lost the competition to
Ralph Wiggum.
