Sorry for the delay in responding... There's no one named Hawk, Mister or otherwise... Bing is certainly the usual suspect, but... I can't help but wonder if "lij" was meant to be "maj", and "Quch" head, and wonder if it was done partly from (a mistaken) memory. But who knows... I checked again, and while "'oy' teS Quch" parallels "Ay, mi cabeza" earlier in the story, the next panels do not proceed the same way, so I don't think the rest of the phrases are mirroring earlier ones the same way.

The lack of case differences and apostrophes have kept me from trying to translate, but the top-most bit is meant to be “my head hurts” I believe, as it parallels Bart hitting his head and waking up speaking Spanish earlier in the story.
This is very interesting to see! fixing the case and apostrophes, I get this: {'oy' teS Quch} "it hurts, ear forehead" {qal qaH Hawq QoghIj} It's possible this is is a transcription from a name. Is there a "Mister Hawk" in the story? literally it say "Mister Hawk's brain is corrupt." {lIj} "your" or "forget" {Haq no'och} The first is "surgery/do surgery", but {no''och} is a word for forehead. Summarizing this, I believe it is the result of the Bing-translator. -- Lieven L.
