Bart's Brain

In this episode, Bart finds a human brain and begins to care for it, which makes his family worry about his reputation.

The Simpson family moves Grampa into a smaller room at the retirement home to save money.

Bart takes Grampa's war memorabilia and trades it at Herman's store for credit.

Bart searches for the brain and finds it with Kearney, Jimbo, and Dolph who plan to blow it up.

When Bart sees them sneaking off to church, they lie and tell him that he can stay home as a reward.
