Marge has made dinner for the family, but when Homer goes to sit at the dining table, Santa's Little Helper is sitting in his place. The dog later sits on Homer's couch, in the car, and on his bar stool, but after SLH steals his bacon, Homer discovers why the dog tried to take over Homer's role as man of the house: he doesn't like his new food. After Homer switches back to SLH's old food, the dog stops trying to take Homer's place. Meanwhile, Lisa is sad and when Marge asks why, she tells her the truth: she is the worst in gym class. The rumor that Homer can understand dogs spreads, so Mr. Burns asks him to make his dogs active again; they have become lazy. Homer manages to get the dogs to become active and his dogs start chasing Smithers.
