Hi, I'm Troy McClure, you may remember me from: Good Time Slim, Uncle Doobey and the Great 'Frisco Freak Out.

Notes: An amazing episode, in which Homer actually has an argument with someone, rather than backing down. As he and his father drift further apart, so the family are at a loss at what to do. You can't help but feel sorry for Grampa as a piece of Simpson family history goes up in flames.
