Mothers and Other Strangers - S33-E9

Continuity mistake: A teenage Homer and his father travel to Utah to look for Homer's fugitive mother, whom they find. This completely contradicts the episode Mother Simpson, where Homer didn't reconnect with his mom until he was in his late thirties, and was told all his life by his father that she was dead, even believing that the grave of Walt Whitman belonged to his mother.

Homer: Alright, I will!
