Synopsis
Bart and Lisa visit the E4 video game convention, leaving Marge to feel like she's not a cool mom. Marge, Bart and Lisa then become foodies and make a blog called The Three Mouthketeers, leaving Homer feeling left out.
Plot
Bart and Lisa fill up their marble jars which means they get to have Saturday with "Fun Dad". Homer takes the kids to E4, a video game convention, where they have a lot of fun. They come back home and Marge sees how much fun they had, feeling left out. She then takes the kids to the 
-GAMES, thinking it's the X Games, leaving the kids to dislike her even more.
On the way back home, the car breaks down and they stop off in Little Ethiopia where Marge discovers her love for foreign food. After talking to other foodies, Marge, Bart and Lisa decide to become foodies themselves and make a food blog, The Three Mouthketeers. They then go around Springfield, trying out several restaurants and writing reviews of them on their blog.
Eventually, Marge, Bart and Lisa get an invite to El Chemistri, a posh restaurant in Springfield. Marge originally invites Homer along after seeing him upset about being left out. However, Marge has a dream about it, with famous chefs Anthony Bourdain, Mario Batali and Gordon Ramsay giving their input on the matter to Marge. She then decides that it would be best to leave Homer behind and sends him to 1501 East Oak Street instead.
At El Chemsitri, Marge starts to feel guilty about what she's done and leaves to go and find Homer, who had gotten into a crystal meth lab. The police raid the place, causing a gunfight to start. Marge comes to the rescue, throwing an apple pie ball into the mouth of the owner and he is knocked out by Chief Wiggum. Marge and Homer then reconcile.
