Oh, this one is hard.

My brain wants to say "you sunk my scrabble ship," but I can't remember anything else about the episode.

That is the episode! But what is the main plot?

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay... just don't call me washed-up, I do 3 shows a day!

I've been sitting here on and off for the last couple hours, wracking my brain for Grampa episodes. I have The Simpsons on in the background (as I am wont to do), but still couldn't narrow it down until this hint. Now I think I've got it.

Abe gets a girlfriend at the retirement castle, but she's a hussy who only likes him for his access to a car (Homer's) and his ability to drive. When Homer revokes access to the car, she dumps Abe for another guy who has a car. She and the guy go on a trip and Abe steals Homer's car with Bart to follow her. Abe ends up confronting her in a surprise twist after making it seem like he was going to beg for her back.

Did I get it? I'm still not 100% sure. Until this hint, I was heavily leaning toward the Flying Hellfish episode, since "battleship" and "military" are thematically linked.

He even gets a new photo taken while at the DMV, but then anger returns.

The movie, Abe is speaking in tongues about the plot ["Epa" etc.]
