Homer eventually tracks her down and, in a desperate bid to win her back, attempts to protect a herd of manatees from a group of aggressive jet-skiers. Although Homer's physical efforts are largely unsuccessful, Marge is moved by his dedication and chooses to return home to her own "endangered species": her husband.
The episode received mixed reviews upon release. Critics often pointed out that while the manatee-based subplot offered some novelty, the "marriage in crisis" trope felt repetitive for the series at that stage. However, later listed Alec Baldwin’s Caleb Thorn as one of the show's top 16 guest roles.
