Description[]
Herman and Grandpa have a fight. Grandpa claims that nobody wants "this broken down old man" and that he'll leave forever. Herman tells Lily that Grandpa's just bluffing. Herman's plan is to act as though nothing is happening when Grandpa says good bye.
Grandpa is only pretending but when he sees that the family doesn't seem concerned, he leaves the house. Eddie sees in the paper that Grandpa's working in a night club as a magician. Herman and Lily go to the club to check on Grandpa. Grandpa attempts a trick where he locks himself in a trunk with chains, and tries to get out unassisted. Things at first don't go well.
To save his act, Grandpa opens the trunk after turning into a wolf, then closes it and gets out as himself. Grandpa declines an offer to tour with the wolf-act, because he prefers to come back to his family.
