Abe and Agnes hit it off with each other and flirted with each other, but when Agnes saw that Abe had to babysit a young Homer, she went with Billy instead. However, Billy never returned after the investigation and Abe renamed the agency to "Simpson and Nobody Private Investigators".

Abe went to investigate what happened to Billy, but nobody knew what had happened to him except Agnes, who he couldn't get in contact with. Eventually, he managed to track Agnes down to the Springfield Squidport and they went on a date together. While in bed that night, Agnes revealed to Abe that Billy went after Burns but never returned after. In the present day, Grampa and Bart went to see Agnes and Abe asked her again what she knew. Agnes helped crack the case by showing Abe a sample of something the road was covered with that night and Abe went to confront Mr. Burns.

In the '80s, Abe also confronted Burns about his partner's disappearance, and Burns said that he took a one way trip to paradise. When Abe wants more details, young Homer ran into the room and Burns told Abe that he'd give Homer a job and never fire him if Abe would stop investigating, which he reluctantly agreed to. In the present, Abe confronted Burns again, who then revealed that Billy had in fact gone to live on a tropical island, then started a video call with him.
