Full Story

Homer, Bart, Marge and Lisa are taking Grampa to the Springfield Planetarium for his birthday. Homer uses his astronaut discount but to do so his diaper has to be checked, which has NASA written all over the waistband. Grampa complains about Homer being a cheapskate and pulls of his party hat in disgust, revealing his head to have changed to the shape of the hat. Homer tries to make an adjustment, but the hair just deflates like a balloon.

The Old Jewish Man meets Grampa in the hallway, and gives him a present, a hearing aid. Grampa says he doesn't want them, saying they will make him look old. The Old Jewish Man forces them into Grampa's ears, and immediately Grampa can hear everything around him.

Lisa runs into Bart's bedroom before midnight and pulls back the covers, revealing a pillow decoy. Bart comes in the window, dressed as a ninja and holding Skinner's mailbox. Lisa confesses to him that the announcer in the planetarium said the universe was 13.8 billion years old, but on a test paper she had put million. Bart, while putting a snake in Skinner's mailbox, asks what this has to do with him, to which Lisa asks if Bart was planning to break into the school soon. Despite not planning to break into the school for a month, Bart agrees.
