Quicky Opinion: I was a bit worried about this episode before watching it, because I heard it was an Inception spoof, and while I loved that movie, I was worried the episode would come across as dated. Luckily though, this didn't turn out to be the case at all, as the episode only used certain elements from Inception (which all worked) and it was all used to tell a well-done, funny, and at the end, very sweet story about Homer still feeling responsible for his mother leaving when he was a kid. The mystery of why he was wetting the bed was a good one and I liked the mislead at the beginning that actually planted the seeds for the real source of Homer's guilt. And Glenn Close is always good as Mona Simpson, so it's good to know they can still come up with ways to use her character, even though she's dead. All in all, another great one from The Simpsons. Quicky Grade: 80% (Great)
