The two grandparents begin to see each other and there is romance in the air. But Mr. Burns steps in and ruins things for old Abe. Bart also buys a 350 dollar drawing of Itchy and Scratchy which turns out to be a dud. Watch for the homage to "The Graduate" at the end. They even captured the facial expressions of Dustin Hoffman and Katherine Ross. As an aside, I love the sermons that that pastor delivers.

Jacqueline, Grampa and Mr Burns Too

Warning: Spoilers
The Simpsons episodes that feature love triangles are quite thoughtful and poignant, and whilst they draw upon the humor, they are quite realistic, and all credit to the writers for bringing in the emotions within the episode. Anyway, here we are introduce to Marge's mom, and we learn a bit about her backstory, and Grampa falls for her, as does Mr Burns, so it's quite the love triangle for sure init. Anyway, I'm enjoying reflecting on the golden years of The Simpsons, which in my humble opinion is he first 10 seasons, so definitely this episode is worth watching, being the second last of season five.
