Homer puts on a Hip Hop mix disc ready for the moment and fixes the problem of kids leaving cause of the animatronics threatening the kids when short-circuited. Gil congratulates Homer and wants him to create a new show with the music he loves.
The new show is the Phuntime Phunky Phour, and the place is packed, however just as the show starts, the FBI intervenes due to it being used as a front for drug trafficking, using the animatronics for holding cocaine, arresting Gil and taking away the animatronics and Abe drives by telling Homer he told him so.
In the present, Homer is crying in front of the building remembering the past, as the family is going to Ralph's birthday party there. Homer stays crying in the parking lot while the family enters the pizzeria.
Back at home, Marge sees something changed in Homer since that happened. Moe comes in and agrees and Marge says they're just gonna love him more. Bart and Lisa finds a way to bring back happiness for Homer, starting a search for the animatronics, beginning by contacting Gil at Little New York.
