This episode features Bart attempting to jump into [[Homer Simpson|dad's]] arms "just like the good old days". The first time [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] jumps, he lands on his head, bouncing and falling on the floor. Once again, Bart prepares to jump. Bart asks Dad why this task is necessary, while Dad asserts that it is always because he has been so jumpy. Bart jumps again, but because dad was laughing at the previous comment, he fails to catch Bart. Bart gets a bandage and a bruise from a previous jump. Again Bart jumps, but dad is distracted while he attempts to work out the past tense of the word "leap". He collects the dictionary and discovers they are both acceptable, and once again Bart lies on the floor. For the final time, Bart is ready to jump. As dad goes to answer the door, Bart closes his eyes and leaps. As he lies on his back, Dad returns with two pairs of boxing gloves announcing they have arrived.
