action
Homer Simpson buys his wife Marge a fairground machine for Mother's Day. This machine can be used to make cotton candy or to caramelize and deep-fry food. During the night, Homer forms a huge ball of sugar, but it is so big that he cannot eat it whole and it gets dirty. His wife Marge asks her husband to dispose of the sugar ball, whereupon he drives to the dump. There he is attacked by a bear . He barely escapes and when he gets home he is terrified of things that have something to do with bears. Homer's father Abe suggests that he take revenge on the bear. When Homer drives to the forest, he is kidnapped by the bear who attacks and injures him again. But Homer notices that the bear is only aggressive because he has a sore chip in his ear. Homer removes this. The two become friends together. But his family begins to worry and ask a hunter to look for the bear. Homer learns that the hunter is after the bear and helps him escape to a nature reserve.
