He went to Springfield. When he got onto the stage, a group of seniors crowded around him, tugged at his hair, and hurt him as they were so pleased to meet him. Jasper Beardley took his pills for his heart problems, causing Matlock to be taken away in an ambulance.[2]

Grampa and Jacqueline Bouvier left the Simpsons' house five minutes before Matlock.[3]
