When Homer eats it, Dr. Hibbert gives him only 24 hours to live. Homer writes a list of the things he wants to do on his last day on earth, which include listen to Lisa play her sax, make a video tape for Maggie and teaching Bart who to shave. When the day ends, Homer says goodbye to his kids one last time, and goes downstairs to listen to the Bible on Tape (ooh... as read by Larry King, voiced by Himself)expecting not to wake up. Homer falls unconscious. When Marge finds him in the morning, she finds his drool warm indicating that he's alive.Homer says that he is going to live each day to the fullest, but is quickly in front of the TV.
