"Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy" is the tenth episode of The Simpsons' sixth season.

Plot

When Homer and Marge's marriage comes under threat due to their fading sex lives, Grampa pieces together a tonic that is guaranteed to help the bad situation. The effectiveness of the tonic results in Homer and Grampa going into business together, selling “Simpson and Son’s Tonic” to the public. They travel from town to town selling the product, but when they visit the farmhouse where Homer grew up, the two have a disagreement. Grampa calls Homer an “accident” which makes Homer angry, but also causes him to change the way he acts as a father to his own children. He vows to show his children the attention they deserve, but they feel he is overcompensating, preferring the “old” Homer. He goes back to the farmhouse, coincidentally at the same time as Grampa, and after accidentally setting fire to the building the two both admit they are “screw-ups”. Thus creating a plot hole in the later episode "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)", in which the Simpsons temporarily move to the Simpson farm.

In a subplot, Bart and friends attempt to figure out why all of the adults disappear after they buy "Simpson and Son's Tonic". They come up with numerous imaginative ideas, none of which have to do with the tonic.
