Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe robot cowboy chasing the robot dancer around in a circle on the bar's balcony is a reference to a scene in the original Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland, where the pirates chased women in a similar fashion.
- GoofsThere are numerous errors in regard to the premise of Grampa's kidneys exploding due to holding in urine too long. 1) Urine is stored in the bladder, not kidneys (kidneys process liquid into urine), so if anything his bladder should have exploded. 2) His bladder or kidneys would not have exploded from holding in urine; all that would have happened would have been that he would just have involuntarily urinated in the car. 3) If Grampa's kidneys did explode, he would die almost immediately from sepsis and internal bleeding, not live long enough to go to the doctor and get X-rays.
- Quotes
Homer Simpson: Two hours? Why'd they build this ghost town so far away?
Lisa Simpson: Because they discovered gold right over there.
Homer Simpson: It's because they're stupid, that's why. That's why everybody does everything.

Featured review
Not Even Slightly Funny
Due to Homer's negligence, Abe is going to need a kidney. Homer is the doner, but he runs off and refuses to follow through. I know it's an anything goes animated show, but the pure selfishness and lack of anything humorous makes this pretty unwatchable.
