 == Plot ==
-During a event in downtown [[Springfield]], [[Professor Frink]] demonstrates his MHV vehicle which allows sound waves to replace fuel, but he soon loses control of the car, causing it to crash into the Springfield Retirement Castle. The Simpson family watch the breaking news on TV and worry about [[Abe Simpson|Grandpa Simpson]]'s fate, only to see him coming out alive and telling the news that he was going to stay with his son. [[Marge Simpson|Marge]], [[Bart Simpson|Bart]], and [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] set out with boxes to help Grandpa move, but [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] fakes breaking his back, allowing him to stay at home. While there, Homer plays with his MyPad and discovers a app game called "Villageville". He plays and becomes obsessively addicted, trying to build a village, but ignores [[Santa's Little Helper]]. When the others return, they discover Homer lied to them, but are even more shocked when they discover the dog is missing. After minutes to hours searching, they eventually find Santa's Little Helper hidden in a pantry shelf below the sink. Lisa and Bart realize Homer hasn't paid any attention to the dog all day. Grandpa soon mentions another dog named Bongo, which upsets Homer. Homer runs upstairs crying, while Grandpa tells the rest of the family about Bongo.

 In a flashback, young Homer & Bongo were each other's best friends; Bongo helped Homer avoid a quiz, escape the dentist, and set the school on fire. Abe then reveals that, during a kids fundraiser [[Mr. Burns]] was hosting, Burns insulted Homer, which led to Bongo attacking him. An upset, Burns threatened Bongo, forcing Abe to hide Bongo at a farm belonging to Ms. Viola, which ended up damaging not only Homer and Bongo's relationship, but Abe's relationship with his son.
