Grampa finally gets the attention he's waited so, so long for when human-interest columnist Marshall Goldman talks with Grampa while in an amusement park. Grampa tells Marshall about the time he was on a World War II battleship, and Marshall publishes the story in the Springfield Shopper, increasing Grampa's popularity in Springfield drastically. However, when Grampa decides to "dump" Homer as he's not been a good son, Homer looks for his own surrogate father, but instead, he finds a note that suggests Marshall may be planning to kill Grampa.
