 After the story is over, Krusty seems very emotional and stays at the Simpsons' home until 1:00 AM looking at photo albums. He finally leaves and tries calling his father, but is afraid that his father will reject him again and he doesn't say anything. Bart and Lisa notice him getting increasingly depressed (even to the point of crying during his TV show), so they decide to try to locate and reunite Krusty with his father. They find him in a radio studio where a framed [[The Larry Davis Experience|"Larry Davis Experience"]] gold record hangs on the wall. His father is still mad at Krusty, so after several tries they finally convince [[Hyman Krustofsky|Hyman]] to forgive Krusty by saying the quote of a famous singer, [[Sammy Davis, Jr.]]. Bart, Lisa, and the now proud father meet Krusty on the set of his show, where they reconcile their differences.
