Homer, Smithers, and Mr. Burns get a positive (if inaccurate) impression from this, and Homer is put in total charge of the power plant while Mr. Burns takes time off to have fun floating down the Ganges with corpses he has befriended.

Soon, the rest of the Simpson family, worried about Homer, travel to India and, with Mr. Burns, journey upriver on a PBR boat and find that Homer is ruling the plant like a god.

The song sung at the end of the episode is Kishore Kumar's "Pal bhar ke liye" from the 1970 Indian blockbuster Johny Mera Naam, starring Dev Anand and Hema Malini.

The episode ends with the Simpsons, Lenny, Carl, Patty, Selma, Richard Dean Anderson, and Smithers joining in a Bollywood style dance at the plant.

Meanwhile, Selma and Patty meet their Hollywood heartthrob, Richard Dean Anderson, who played MacGyver, who stops by to ask for directions to a convention about his newest show Stargate SG-1, only to find that he is totally uninterested in MacGyver and only did it for the pay.
