The next day at breakfast, Lisa says she is looking forward to spending the "Daddy-Daughter Day" after Super Bowl XXVI going hiking at Mount Springfield. Marge eventually wants to know where Homer's extra income is coming from and gets the truth, but Homer says it's not really a big deal. Homer declares every Sunday "Daddy-Daughter Day." With his new money, he starts buying expensive presents for the family and treating them to fine dining. Lisa becomes very adept at choosing winners of football games, and Homer cleans up. Meanwhile, Marge has taken Bart shopping and proceeds to do everything possible to humiliate Bart: buying terrible and nerdy clothes and ignoring his distaste, opening his dressing room door while he is in his underwear while customers watch and without closing it, overlooking any comments he has about getting beaten up if he wears these outfits and leaving Bart to be tormented by the bullies thinking they are his friends. In the end, the Dolphins win, and Homer and Lisa celebrate. Lisa questions Homer about the call, and likens sports betting to putting a lot of toppings on ice cream. A desperate Homer turns to Lisa to pick a winner, and she picks the Dolphins, and Homer quickly calls Moe's Tavern to place his $50 wager. Homer chooses to try again on the Miami-Cincinnati game and calls a 1-900 "guaranteed pick" service for advice however, it soon becomes clear the only thing "The Coach" wants is the caller's money. In the end, Denver loses 55-10, and Homer angrily blames the TV (and sports anchorman "Smooth" Jimmy Apollo) for losing his bet. By now, New England is crushing Denver 35-7 and has just forced another Broncos fumble. Lisa plans to join her father on the couch, and an annoyed Homer reluctantly agrees. Lisa complains to Marge that her Dad doesn't show interest in what she wants to do, Marge suggests spending some "quality time" with Homer by taking up his interests. Homer is not really that interested, especially after Denver – on whom he has bet $20 – gives up a quick touchdown. Lisa enters the room to show her dad a shoe box apartment she made for her Malibu Stacy dolls. Meanwhile, Marge gets new clothes for Bart by going shopping together.Įating high-cholesterol snacks, Homer sits down to another Sunday of football. However, when Lisa finds out what Homer's been doing, she calls off the bets - leaving him with a final prediction for the Super Bowl - if Washington wins, she loves him, but if Buffalo wins, she won't. Homer places bets in Moe's with Lisa's predictions, and makes a bundle. Homer becomes aware that Lisa can predict football results with incredible accuracy and the two bond when watching the games.
