  +
:'''Grampa''': You, President? This is the greatest country in the world. We've got a whole system set up to prevent people like you from ever becoming president. Quit your daydreaming, melonhead! [back in the present] Quit your daydreaming, melonhead.

----
  +
:'''Homer''': Dad, how come you never gave me any encouragement? Maybe I could have been something more than I am. Like a travel agent, to great scientist, or the inventor of a hilarious refrigerator alarm.
  +
:'''Grampa''': Who are you to complain? You locked me up in a home and give me the same damn shower safety seat every Christmas.
  +
:[in the car]
  +
:'''Homer''': Your whole life you never said one nice thing to me.
  +
:'''Grampa''': That's 'cause you're a screw-up.
  +
:'''Homer''': You're the screw-up!
  +
:'''Grampa''': Why you little... [strangles Homer]
  +
:'''Homer''': All right, all right. That's it. We're going home! I'm sick of you and your stupid tonic.
  +
:'''Grampa''': If I hadn't taken that stupid tonic 38 years ago, you'd have never been born and I'd have been happy. You were an accident!
  +
:'''Homer''': [gasps, stops the car] Get out.
  +
:'''Grampa''': I'm sorry I said that.
  +
:'''Homer''': '''Out.'''
  +
:'''Grampa''': I'm going to get out of the car, and I hope you'll find it in your heart not to drive away... [Homer drives off] Well, I'll be all right as long as I can remember my army training. [later that night, he still stands there] Dang. [And he will never see Homer ever again and return to Springfield Retirement Castle]
  +
----
  +
:'''Marge''': Homey, are you really going to ignore Grampa for the rest of your life?
  +
:'''Homer''': Of course not, Marge, just for the rest of his life. He said I was an accident...he didn't want to have me.
  +
:'''Marge''': You didn't want to have Bart.
  +
:'''Homer''': I know, but you're never supposed to tell the child.
  +
:'''Marge''': You tell Bart all the time! You told him this morning.
  +
:'''Homer''': But when I do it, it's cute.
  +
----

:'''Barney''': [walks out from behind a curtain] I used to be a fat, disgusting slob. [belches]
  +
:'''Man''': That medicine seems to be giving your son a lot of gas.
  +
:'''Grampa''': I assure you his belching is the result of an unrelated alcohol problem.
  +
:'''Barney''': Oh -- [collapses]
  +
----
  +
:'''Bart''': No offense, Homer, but your half-assed under-parenting was a lot more fun than your half-assed over-parenting.
  +
:'''Homer''': But I'm using my whole ass.
  +
:'''Lisa''': Dad, it's just that too much of your love can really be...scary.
  +
:'''Homer''': Some day you'll thank me for all this scary love. But now I've gotta go somewhere and do some serious thinking.
  +
:[Homer gets in the car and drives off.]
  +
:'''Bart''': I'm sure he meant to say "serious drinking."
