Plot

Bart asks Grampa for $5 to buy a comic book. Grampa tells him that when he was a kid, comic books only cost a penny. He then says that the day he pays five bucks for a comic book will be the day he pays a thousand dollars for a new car. Bart then asks for five dollars to buy a new car, but Grampa sees through this and says that he knows five dollars can't buy a new car. He then says that he invented the scam Bart just tried to use back in 1939 and starts to reminisce about the old days. Grampa then snaps back to the present and asks Bart what he wants. Bart tells him he wants five dollars for a comic book, and Grampa gives him the money.
