During a(n illegal) poker night at Moe's, Homer and the others play with a retired Broadway star Laney Fontaine. After Homer loses to her while she's passed out, he brings her over to his house to meet his family, where she sees Lisa's innate talent at the saxophone and convinces her to forget about the $5,000 if she lets Homer and Marge take Lisa to New York to become a star. This causes Marge to become increasingly worried about Lisa's future, so they head out for New York [[RunningGag (yet again)]] to get her.
