 Homer goes to save Ned from the crash but, burning his arm in the process, saves the money bag too, but before he could take it away, Barbara comes to the scene and recognizes him as the hero who saved the orphanage money. Ned manages to run away, but can't run away from Costas, which calls to remember him the debt is still on, and to expect him to come when he least expects it.
