In season 27 episode 6 of The Simpsons titled "Friend with Benefit," Marge learns that her old friend from high school, Evelyn, is now very wealthy and tries to reconnect with her. Meanwhile, Homer buys a new grill, but has trouble getting it started and turns to BBQ pitmaster, Ribwich for help. As Marge catches up with Evelyn, she discovers that her old friend's wealth is due to having several sugar daddies. Despite initially being horrified by her friend's actions, Marge soon finds herself enjoying the glamorous and luxurious lifestyle that comes with having a benefactor. However, things take a turn when Evelyn's main sugar daddy, a millionaire named Artie Ziff, invites the Simpsons to a fancy party at his mansion and Marge finds herself torn between her loyalty to her friend and her moral compass. Meanwhile, Homer enters a BBQ contest with Ribwich as his partner, but ends up getting in over his head when the competition takes on a more sinister turn.

Throughout the episode, there are several comedic moments as the characters navigate their respective dilemmas. Many of these moments are signature Simpsons humor - witty one-liners, physical comedy, and over-the-top situations. However, the episode also has some heartwarming moments - particularly between Marge and Homer. As Marge learns more about her friend's situation, she realizes that they have more in common than she thought. She becomes more appreciative of the life and family that she has with Homer, and their scenes together show a real depth to their relationship.

Overall, "Friend with Benefit" is a classic episode of The Simpsons that blends humor and heart. While the concept of sugar daddies may seem like a heavy topic for a comedy show, the writers handle it with sensitivity and wit, resulting in an episode that is memorable and enjoyable. The inclusion of the BBQ contest subplot also adds a fun and unexpected twist to the episode. Fans of the show will appreciate the familiar characters, clever dialogue, and unexpected twists and turns that make The Simpsons one of the most beloved TV shows of all time.
