Synopsis by Mark Deming

Abe Simpson (voice of Dan Castellaneta), father to Homer (also voiced by Castellaneta) and grandfather to Bart (voice of Nancy Cartwright) and Lisa (voice of Yeardley Smith), is a less than enthusiastic resident of the Springfield Retirement Castle, an assisted living facility where he receives few callers beyond his monthly visit from Homer and his family. One day, Abe strikes up a conversation with Bea Simmons (voice of Audrey Meadows), a fellow Retirement Castle resident, and Abe falls in love for the first time in years. Abe plans a special day for Bea's birthday, but when the big day rolls around, Homer arrives to take Abe on a family outing to Discount Lion Safari, despite Abe's vehement objections. When Abe returns, he learns that tragedy struck, and Bea suddenly died of a cardiac ailment while he was away. Bea wills Abe $100,000, asking that he use the money to help others, which leaves him having to decide who could best use the cash, and soon a parade of Springfieldians are beating a path to his doorstep, each requesting the money for their own "noble" cause. Old Money was first aired on March 28, 1991.
