Synopsis[edit]
- "Homer's down-in-the-dumps after he realizes you only live once, so Marge encourages him to embrace his YOLO spirit, and she invites his old pen pal to stay and cross items off his 'to-do/dream list' from when he was 10-years-old. Meanwhile, Springfield Elementary's cheating scandal is resolved, or seems to be, when Lisa institutes a new honor code."
Plot[edit]
Bart and Milhouse are having a play-date at the former's house. After finishing constructing a toy race-track, the pair argue over who gets to play with it first and brawl, ultimately crushing the track under their body weight. Milhouse then triggers an allergic reaction by sniffing a nectarine and both Homer and Marge agree it's best for Milhouse to go home and text his father requesting he pick up his son.
Shortly after, Kirk arrives at the Simpson home to pick up Milhouse in a Mercedes, complete with a 'YOLO' license-plate, wearing a track-suit with accompanying bling and boasting about his DJ class. It's clear Kirk is going through a mid-life crisis.
Later that night, Homer and Marge are brushing their teeth and laughing over how silly Kurt looked. Then, Marge tells Homer how proud she is of Homer - "You've had the same job, same car, same house for 20 years. And that's all you'll ever have... A cycle you'll never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever change. And you're OK with it... Like I say night after night after night. Nighty night." Homer starts questioning how happy he really is.
Meanwhile, Homer begins to realizes his life is boring and uneventful. He decides to quit complaining about his life and start wallowing in the past. Homer informs Marge about his old pen pal from Spain, Eduardo Barcelona. During 5th grade, the two wrote back and forth about their dreams and ambitions for the future. Marge comes up with an idea... She notifies Eduardo of Homer's predicament and he pays a visit to Springfield. Eduardo is initially surprised by Homer's appearance ("Did your hair burn off in a fire that trapped you in a candy factory?) but ultimately recognizes his old pen-pal.
After introducing himself to Marge, Eduardo explains to Homer that, unlike him, he has been doing all the things they discussed in their letters. Eduardo announces his plans to help Homer fulfill some of his childhood dreams and promises Marge that once they return, Homer will be happy and bring a new sense of adventure to their marriage.
Elsewhere, Lisa develops a solution to the school's cheating scandal - implementing an honor code. The suggestion gathers support from both the parents and teachers. She tries implementing the new honor code, which can only become active once all her fellow students agree to use it. Lisa understands that if she gets the toughest kid in the class to sign it, then the rest of them will too. Her plan succeeds and pretty soon everyone begins signing up.
Homer and Eduardo begin their quest of completing the former's dreams, beginning with riding on the back of a fire-engine. Next, the pair engage in a swashbuckling sword-fight with a band of pirate actors in a play, directed by Llewellyn Sinclair, at the Springfield Dinner Theater. Following this, Homer reenacts the fight scene between Captain Kirk and a Gorn from Star Trek.
That night, after Homer expresses his happiness at embracing his you-only-live-once lifestyle, Marge admits she is feeling melancholy over not completing one of her dreams - rebelling against her parents by jumping on the bed. After some encouragement by Homer, she does just that.
The next day Homer and Eduardo prepare to complete the last childhood dream: skydiving. Up in a plane thousands of feet in the air, Homer begins to have second thoughts. However, before he can retreat, Eduardo pushes him out and Homer tumbles through the sky down towards Springfield...
At Springfield Elementary, the honor code has become a huge success. Students, particularly the bullies, are actively taking part in their learning by spending lunch doing homework and assignments. Principal Skinner is pleased with the result and congratulations Lisa. However, Lisa soon discovers Bart has got A*s on all of his tests and believes he might be cheating the system. Lisa threatens to report him, until Bart points out that if she does it'll prove her system is a failure.
Meanwhile, up in the air, Homer learns to use his skydiving suit and soars across the sky, with Eduardo following behind. Just then, Marge's voice crackles in Homer's headset. "Come down Homie," Marge pleads, "You only live once also means when you die...you die." Homer panics, until Eduardo knocks his headpiece off. "You can listen to your wife when you're dead. Now savor the moment," Eduardo instructs him. While taking in the sights, Homer fails to notice he is fast approaching the Largest Building in Springfield. He whams into it and loses the wind updraft that was keeping him afloat. He begins falling to the ground.
Lisa confronts Bart in the school's playground. Lisa has a plan to keep her credibility and the honor system intact and it involves having Bart turn himself in for cheating. Unfazed, Bart says he'll only turn himself in when he sees a sign from God. Just then, a falling Homer lands on Bart, leaving behind a huge crater and a cloud of dust. This proves as enough of a sign for Bart and, to Lisa's pleasure, he decides to turn himself in.
Homer is rushed to Springfield General Hospital, where Eduardo congratulations him on living his dreams. Just then, Homer wakes up in his bed at home and concludes that all of the previous events were just a dream. "It was not just a dream and you said you would drive me to the airport," Eduardo says. However, instead of just simply driving Eduardo there and dropping him off, Homer decides to pay a visit to Barcelona. The two pen-pals tour the Sagrada Família together, with Eduardo adding, "You are a good friend" as the pair head off to explore.
