During a fight between Bart and the 5th grader, they discover that they have a sword-shaped scar on their fists. Neither of them know why they have the same scar, so Bart asks Marge about it. Marge tells him that she used to be in a "Mother and me" class with Bart, and that she made a group with the other moms called "The Cool Moms".

Reception
"Moms I'd Like to Forget" was viewed by an estimated 12.65 million households in its original broadcast.
Rowan Kaiser rated the episode with a C+ writing that if felt "The entire episode just seems to be hurtling towards a reset button: Of course Marge isn't going to end up with three new best friends, and of course Bart isn't going to have an entirely new crew to hang out with. The writers seem to know this, and the resolution is half-assed at best."
