==Explanation==
{{incomplete|This page was created but can be easily removed with this one great trick!. Don't remove this notice too soon.}}

Many household problems have a range of commonly-circulated supposed solutions using easily available items and ingredients, such as using salt to lift a stain out of a carpet. Sometimes, when one of these problems presents itself, several competing remedies may be offered by those present. This comic imagines this as a competitive sport, in which the final test is to combine several of these problems into one grand challenge to be solved. Specifically, the contestants in this case are presented with:
* removing unpleasant odours (in this case, that of a {{w|skunk}})
* {{w|Hangover_remedies|curing a hangover}}
* [https://www.wikihow.com/Get-Gum-Out-of-Your-Hair removing chewing gum stuck in hair]
and possibly
* removing a wild animal from the premises

The title text's requirement that any assistance must come from a grandparent may reference the fact that such treatments are sometimes referred to as '{{w|old wives' tales}}', or possibly just that they are often handed down as family lore.

[Cueball, holding a microphone, is addressing 3 contestants (Megan, White Hat & Hairbun), each standing at desks, with shaking lidded boxes on the desks]

Cueball: And now, for the final round, you have each been given a skunk with a hangover & chewing gum stuck to it's fur.

Cueball: You have 30 minutes. Good luck.
