== Plot ==
 +
[[Marge]] takes the kids on a random and pointless Sunday drive but [[Homer]] gets out of it by cleaning the garage. He does little but try to kill spiders, which get on his face. Homer sprays himself with pesticide and trips on Bart's skateboard and falls on the ground under the garage door. He sees a spider and tosses a TV guide magazine at it, but the magazine hits the garage door button and closes the door on his neck and continues trying to close. When Marge and the kids get home, Homer is dead. [[Bart]] tells [[Lisa]] to open up the envelope he gave her. Lisa opens up an envelope and pulls out a drawing of Homer crushed under the garage door with "THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN" written under him. Lisa and Bart perform CPR and revive him. Marge then declares life insurance but due to his fitness, constant accidents and multiple physical ailments Homer is declared uninsurable. Marge then watches a movie (which claims to be based on a true story) on TV known as "[[From Homemaker to Homeless]]" about a rich housewife who becomes poor, insane, and ugly after her husband dies of a stroke and she has no life insurance. Marge then gets a nest egg to pay for Homer's insurance and buys imitation brands of cereal, soup, coffee, forces Bart and Lisa to wear church charity clothing to school, and has Homer bring his own drinks to [[Moe's Tavern]]. Homer is then kicked out for bringing an outside drink and decides since the nest egg is making his life miserable he should purchase something cool. Homer then buys a fully loaded RV which he has the kids living in as well.

Homer sprays himself with pesticide and trips on Bart's skateboard and falls on the ground under the garage door. He sees a spider and tosses a TV guide magazine at it, but the magazine hits the garage door button and closes the door on his neck and continues trying to close. When Marge and the kids get home, Homer is dead. Bart tells Lisa to open up the envelope he gave her. Lisa opens up an envelope and pulls out a drawing of Homer crushed under the garage door with "THIS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN" written under him. Lisa and Bart perform CPR and revive him. Marge then declares life insurance but due to his fitness, constant accidents and multiple physical ailments Homer is declared uninsurable. Marge then watches a movie (which claims to be based on a true story) on TV known as "From Homemaker to Homeless" about a rich housewife who becomes poor, insane, and ugly after her husband dies of a stroke and she has no life insurance.

Homer is then kicked out for bringing an outside drink and decides since the nest egg is making his life miserable he should purchase something cool. Homer then buys a fully loaded RV which he has the kids living in as well.
