While on a family hike, [[The Simpsons]] discover a new mega mall named "The Fortune Megastore". It has all their needs and desires.

Next, Mr. Burns asks Homer to bring a check from himself to the Springfield Hospital. He later finds out that they didn't take the check under Burns' name, but under Homer's and he ends up getting a wing named after him. Then, Burns goes on a Howard Stern-type radio show called "Jerry Rude and the Bathroom Bunch", but he is appalled at the questions and embarrassed when the host makes farting noises.

Burns has enlisted the help of Homer, Groundskeeper Willie, and Professor Frink to capture the monster. After several attempts of locating it, there is no success; Burns decides to empty the lake.

The monster likes the attention, but Burns goes crazy due to the bright flashes and drives everyone away. With nowhere to go, Burns decides to get The Loch Ness Monster a job at a Vegas casino.
 
 
 
== Notes ==
 
*This is the last episode to be animated by Anivision, their over-seas animation company.
 
*A deleted scene from this episode shows that upon returning from Scottland, Homer has a Scottish accent. This scene was removed because Homer's accent sounded too much like Groundskeeper Willie's.
 
*This is the second time [[Micheal McKean]] guest starred on The Simpsons. The first time was in [[The Otto Show]] in which he played himself along with the rest of [[Spinal Tap]].
 
*The title is a reference to the line "Money can't buy me love" from the song "Can't buy me love" by The Beatles.
