Synopsis[edit]
- "When Groundskeeper Willie is kidnapped to Scotland, Bart and the Simpsons follow — only to discover that what awaits is Homer's worst nightmare."
Plot[edit]
At Springfield Elementary School, the boys of the fourth grade class are told that they have to dance with the girls for gym class. The boys are horrified by this because they don't want to get cooties, so Bart runs to the nurse's office to get band-aids so they don't have to directly touch the girls. When Bart hands them out, the kids all start to feel weird. Bart then realizes that he gave out nicotine patches to everyone, and the kids all start rampaging. After the rampage, Bart is given detention, despite his claims that he didn't mean for that to happen. He is sent to help Groundskeeper Willie out in his shack.
At home, Homer and Marge are in bed just looking at social media when Marge gets an invite to a destination wedding. Homer starts ranting about destination weddings and how much he despises them until eventually Marge just accepts the invitation, planning on using the miles they have accumulated to pay for the flights. The next day, Bart is still in detention with Willie when he tells Willie that the only crime he did was not wanting to dance with girls. Willie then opens up to Bart about a girl he loved, Maisie, who broke his heart. Willie then moved to America after this incident. Bart and Willie then started to bond over their dislike of girls and they became friends.
One day, Willie went missing and Bart couldn't him anywhere. Willie then video called Bart, telling him that he needs him. Bart then goes home and convinces Homer and Marge to take everyone to Edinburgh to find Willie. When they arrive, the family travels to the MacWeldon Distillery, which is where Willie was in the video call. They enter the building only to find that there's a party going on, which Willie reveals is being held because he and Maisie are getting married. Willie and Maisie then show a video of their story, revealing that Maisie's family had told her that Willie had been killed by a sheep, which is why she never met up with Willie to run away to America together. It was only when Maisie saw a TikTok video of Bart and Willie that she realized that he was still alive, so she reconnected with him. Willie then ran back to Scotland to get married to her. Bart is upset over this because he thought that he and Willie had a connection over their dislike of girls.
Whilst Homer, Marge and Bart go on wedding events, Lisa explores Edinburgh and goes to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. During the wedding events, Homer gets angry over having to do them, due to his dislike of destination weddings. Marge and Homer then have an argument over this. Later, at a rehearsal dinner, Bart asks Lisa for advice. Lisa tells Bart that Willie has never been happier, so he should let him be happy with Maisie.
