Later, Lisa and Homer watched a historical documentary and made a bet on who would win the 1948 U.S. Presidential election. Homer made the mistake of believing the polls that predicted victory for Governor Dewey, so Lisa won the bet and got to choose their activity for Daddy-Daughter Day. She chose taking part in building homes for Habitat for Humanity alongside former U.S. Presidents Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and George H. W. Bush.[2]
