"And that was my life through 1968 to 1975," Principal Skinner concluded.

"Why exactly did you tell me all of this?" Bart asked.

"Because I wanted you to know that years ago, I wasn't too different than you," Skinner replied.

"Are you saying that I'm gonna end up like you?"

Skinner laughed. "No, no! Actually... I'm not sure why I told you all of this."

Bart sighed. "Okay, so what happened to this Kieran guy? And Brooke?"

"Well, I believe Kieran now works as an engineer. And he's married to Brooke. They have a daughter, now. She has to be at least 16..."

"Don't you visit them, anymore?" Bart asked.

"Not really. Kieran and I had a falling out. I haven't seen him in years, outside of those parent-teacher conferences when his daughter was in elementary school."

"Uh, one more thing: can I please go now?"

Skinner sighed. "Yes, Bart. You're free to go." Bart left Skinner's office. Skinner thought about his old friends, hoping to reconcile with them. So, he decided to visit Kieran and Brooke for the first time in years. He knocked on their door, and Kieran opened it.

"Seymour? Is that you?"

"Yes," he replied.

"Why are you here?"

"I wanted to apologize for what happened."

"But that was fifteen years ago..."

"Well... still."

Kieran chuckled. "Okay, Seymour. Apology accepted." He called out to Brooke upstairs. "Hey, Brooke! Skinner's here!" Brooke walked downstairs.

"Hello, Seymour. It's good to see you again. Um... can I get you anything?"

"I'm fine," Skinner replied.

"So, how have the years been treating you, Skinner? Outside of being a principal, I mean," Kieran asked.

"I've been doing fine. I was in a band called the Be Sharp in the eighties, dated one of the school teachers for a while... still living with my mother."

Kieran burst out laughing. "Oh, God! Why am I not surprised?" Skinner rolled his eyes.

"You haven't changed a bit."

"So, Gary's the superintendent?"

"He's been the superintendent for quite a while."

"Ah."

Suddenly, Kieran and Brooke's teenage daughter, Willow, walked downstairs. She looked at her dad and Skinner.

"Principal Skinner? What are you doing here?" Willow asked.

"Your father and I are old friends. We go way back," he replied. Kieran nodded.

"Weird," Willow said. She walked off.

Skinner sighed. "Well, I should get going. Mother wants to play bingo with me."

"See you around," Kieran said. Skinner smiled.

"I will."
