 Over the following few days, Homer begins to spend more and more time with lil' Homer and starts to become emotionally attached to the point of even thinking of him when he is with Maggie. While shopping at [[Swapper Jack's]] for supplies for Homer, Jr, Homer runs into Marge who is doing the same for Maggie. Deciding against carelessly spilling all the details, Homer tells Marge he is shopping ahead for Maggie also. Marge becomes suspicious and rightly so.<br>
 Meanwhile, Lisa returns to the Buzz Cola Dome and raises her concerns about the cheerleaders' exploitation by their boss, especially in regards to the fact that they get more money for all the merchandising that is done without them being compensated. Lisa eventually manages to rally up the cheerleaders' support but their boss refuses to give in. Lisa decides to take the team home to [[Bart]]'s treehouse to create signs and develop chants for a protest. Not long after, the entire town's male citizens appear and stand below trying to "woo" them. Marge assumes Homer would be out there with all the guys too, but Bart points out he is "working late" again. Marge suspects he is really at Carl's and heads out in search for him.<br>
-Marge drives to Carl's apartment, but soon learns that Homer is not there. Troubled, Marge then hears questionable utterances coming from Carl's neighboring apartment and bursts in to find Homer playing with Homer, Jr. "You have a baby together," Marge gasps, "So I'm a {{w|Arnold Schwarzenegger|Schwarzenegger}} wife!" Although extremely upset, Marge manages to calm down after finding out Homer hasn't had a drink in a week.

 Homer and Gretchen explain the situation to Marge who, although initially uncertain, allows Homer to continue seeing Homer, Jr. and helping Gretchen out.<br>
