- A teenage Homer drawing an (albeit crudely drawn) portrait of Abe Simpson, with Abe expressing joy.
- Abe attending Homer's wedding with Marge and giving him his life savings in an envelope, only for a bird to snatch away the money, to Abe's disappointment (though Homer and Marge got married at Shotgun Pete's Quickie Wedding Chapel and there was no one there other than Homer, Marge, and Shotgun Pete).
