Abe Simpson is a selfish man. Thats honestly never changed about him over the course of the show even in the few times he's shown his generosity or even his finer moments. But this time around its a double done there kind of episode the "Grampa gets a new girlfriend" and "Abe being a bad father" kind of episode, Which there has been more then you would expect, but less you would hope.
But atleast this time its a relationship that seems to be working and the new characters introduced in the episode served a good role in bringing up Homer's relationship with his dad through his new step brother Calvin. Who I honestly am not expecting to be make a lot of appearances after this episode. But he was atleast a good character and his back and forth with Homer was entertaining enough to get over the fact Homer was getting into a spat with a literal child.
There was also another pointless B plot about LIsa being seen as a narc by other kids in her school and lame, which by this point you would expect to get used to but it was big deal for the episode and she had a short stint of going to Radical with it and Bart of all people to reign her in. Which the few bits we got with it was funny enough, but this is another late season episode that you'll likely forget about. Simply been there and done that.
