Homer gets a magazine in the mail that's loaded with personality tests, and he relentlessly quizzes his friends and family with them. Later on he takes his own test, which determines how long he has left to live. Unfortunately, Homer's less than stellar health and eating habits add up to only three more years to live. Marge suggests a few lifestyle changes to make that number go up, naturally Homer is against that and has a mental breakdown, developing insomnia and going insane. His mental behavior almost costs the Power Plant to be closed down by asking the inspector to hide him wearing nothing but a mail sack. The power plant's psychiatrist recommends Homer go on a long vacation for quiet recuperation, so the family head off to a town in Florida. Unfortunately, when they arrive it is Spring break, one of the loudest weeks of the year. Marge wants Homer to stay in his hotel room, but he escapes to party at a Kid Rock concert on the beach.
