Plot[edit]
At Moe's Tavern, it's Carl's birthday, where Homer receives a call from Marge to get back home. Homer gives Moe his car keys to keep, which he makes a copy of, among others.
Moe calls a Uber for Homer and Barney shows up, so Homer comes back on foot while Barney drunk antics continue as he asks himself to take him to Moe's while he was there and give himself 5 stars for it.
Homer wobbles home while singing and a cop takes him to jail for the night for being a danger to the city, like making Kirk fall in the water or bending lamposts, and he calls Marge that says to not come home and throws a I love you paper in the "missed dinners" box.
He's put in jail with Cletus, that sings him a song with a guitar, about family, that makes him think, and when he comes home, he makes a promise to become a "perfect example", making Bart stand up when Marge enters the room.
Homer next makes them pray and Marge believes in the change and Homer closes with "And that was that." before the credits start to roll, interrupted by Cletus announcing that there were two more acts and a "whittled by" credit.
In the morning, Marge asks Homer if he remembers what happened last night, and he does, and finds out the car is missing. Moe is seeing washing it at a car wash, wanting to feel how it feels to own a car.
Homer brings the family to Cletus's farm, to show them the man that showed him the new life, and asks him if he can become his manager, starting his career at Divey's Bar. Cletus signs the management contract on a Beer of the month club paper and Homer becomes his manager officially.
Cletus starts singing and playing guitar at Divey's Bar and then at Li'l Nicer Cabaret and the Now We're Talkin' Lounge, before becoming so popular he appears at Elin Degenerous's The Elin Degenerous Show and in magazines, changing his life thanks to Homer, however on a flight he fires Homer to replace him with a professional.
