When Homer finds out about this, he rushes to stop Grampa, and succeeds when Grampa almost loses the money in a game of roulette. At a suggestion by Jasper, he goes on a senior citizen gambling trip, with the possibility that he could double or triple the remaining funds. This announcement soon gains local media attention, and a line forms for people to make requests of Grampa for the remaining money (even reporter Kent Brockman reports on this, then gets in line).Īfter a number of interviews, Grampa still hasn't chosen a good person willing to gain possession of the fortune, so he goes for a walk to clear his mind, and notices the plight of the Springfield homeless and realizes it wouldn't be enough money to help everyone who needs it most.
