Synopsis[edit]
- "Grampa gets a hearing aid and finally hears what everyone has been saying about him. Meanwhile, Principal Skinner discovers that his mother has kept the ultimate secret from him."
Plot[edit]
On Grampa's birthday, the Simpson family arrives at the Springfield Planetarium. After buying the tickets, Homer shows the ticket stand girl how he was an astronaut. He tries to weigh himself and is surprised to weigh just 182 pounds, but Marge corrects him, indicating it is his weight on the moon. Meanwhile, Bart and Lisa watch a reproduction of Pluto talking about how it lost its status as a planet in the solar system, and how it's taking revenge on Halley's Comet. During the Planetarium show, the family watches a documentary on the big bang, but Grampa escapes after the explosion is shown.
Returning him to the Springfield Retirement Castle, Grampa complains about the music being too low due to his hearing problem. At the castle, his companions throw him a small party, asking him to make a wish. The old Jewish man gives him a birthday gift: a hearing aid, a much-appreciated gift that restores the hearing he lost long ago. Lisa goes to Bart's room to ask him a favor while he returns from preparing a prank for Skinner with a snake, to change a homework paper she delivered with the wrong date for when the big bang happened. Bart and Lisa break into the school's basement and change the date, but they also discover that Skinner is living in the storage. Skinner tells the story of how his mother kept a big secret from him. As a kid, he applied to Ohio State University to become part of the marching band, but his mother lied about him being accepted.
At home, Grampa hears the family's dislike of him being there and says he's leaving the home forever. He goes to Springfield Mall, where the shop attendants treat him like an old man too. That night, Lisa has a nightmare of the future where she becomes president but is disqualified for cheating on the paper. Meanwhile, Skinner dreams of becoming a drummer, and Grampa goes to the Veterans of Unpopular Wars bar, where he tells the bartender his problems. Skinner goes to Ohio State University, where he tells them his story, but gets refused as it's too late. He gets called a loser, which convinces him to discuss the matter with his mother.
In class, Lisa confesses to Miss Hoover about her trick, but Miss Hoover tells her she knew it. However, she wants the nicotine gums that Bart stole, and it's revealed that Bart gave them to the class pet, who darts across the room on his wheel, energized by the gums, and goes to torment Willie. At Skinner's house, Skinner tells his mother he knows what she did, but the anger disappears when she cries in front of him for what she did. He agrees to move back in on his conditions, though he has to live with Barney, who moved into his room.
Grampa is still not found, and Homer receives a call from the bar, with the bartender sending Grampa back home and asking not to send him there again. Back at home, Grampa hears the family missing him, but they're just reading a script written by Lisa and Marge. Homer reveals it's the episode's script. At Skinner's house, Skinner and Agnes share TV, happy together. At the end, Hans Moleman is the main character of a short, "Nobody Knows Hans Moleman", where he falls into a manhole and is stepped on by Homer, trumped by Patty, and scanned by Shauna like he's nobody, while he just needs his heart pills.
