== Plot ==
The [[Mr. Burns' Casino]] is getting demolished after being closed for a while, due to becoming forgotten about a week after it opened. The detonation used to demolish it is an explosion rather than an implosion and the people watching the demolition run away to avoid the dust cloud that follows. As the Simpsons get into their car and drive off, they get engulfed by the dust cloud, making the car filthy. [[Marge]] suggests that [[Homer]] take the car to get washed, but he says he'll do it later. [[Lenny]] then drives alongside them and tells Homer he should get the car washed, and Homer agrees to do so. At the [[Car Wash]], Homer notices that [[Ned]] uses a senior citizens discount to get cheaper gas.

At [[First Church of Springfield|church]] the next day, Homer confronts Ned in front of the entire congregation about using a discount he didn't have the right to use. Ned admits to Homer and the congregation that he is actually 60, so is a senior citizen. When the congregation question Ned on how he has stayed looking so young. Ned tells everyone that he resists all major urges, which is how he stays young. The congregation then mock Ned for never properly living for even a single day. Ned initially dismisses this but when he sees everyone else having fun, and realizes that he is very predictable, Ned decides to try and change his ways. After failing to impress his family with the minor change of not trimming his mustache, Ned goes to Homer for help.

Homer has Ned sign documents to get him into the "Homer Simpson Program" and then takes Ned out to have fun. Homer tells Ned that he has to take snap decisions, then decides to take Ned gambling at the Mr. Burns' Casino, forgetting that it had been demolished. Homer then takes Ned to [[Las Vegas]] instead, despite Ned not really wanting to go. Homer takes Ned to [[Nero's Palace]] where he and Homer play roulette. After winning the first bet they make, Homer puts all of Ned's money on the line and loses everything. He then takes Ned to the bar where they meet two waitresses, [[Amber Simpson|Amber]] and [[Ginger Flanders|Ginger]], and spend the rest of the day and night getting drunk.

The next morning, Homer and Ned wake up in a hot tub in a hotel suite and can't remember anything. Ned starts to thank Homer for taking him out until Ginger and Amber come out of another room and reveal that Ned and Homer married them that night. Homer and Ned are horrified at this because they can't remember it, and they already have wives. The pair decide to take their new wives to breakfast as they try and figure out how to get the waitresses to leave them alone. As the two of them are at the buffet table discussing it, Homer decides to just run, and Ned follows him. Casino security is then notified by Amber and Ginger to Homer and Ned trying to run from them and all the staff join the chase, eventually capturing the pair.

Homer and Ned are kicked out of Las Vegas at the edge of town and made to walk through the desert as Homer and Ned discuss their excuse to their wives. Homer comes up with an alien abduction where Ned is gang probed by the aliens. The pair are then followed by some vultures who then attack them.
