My Wife and I had been wondering what the deal was with Grandpa Bob.

they never talked about him outside the one episode Bandit talked about the 80s

We had seen Bob once before in a contemporary episode. In Grannies, when Bluey is teaching Nana to floss, Bob is trying to learn too. Then we see them both flossing at the reception.

There were a ton of Easter eggs/call backs in this episode.

Bob and Nana flossing
The butterfly Bingo and Lila save in The Slide
Bucky the real estate agent is the one who makes fun of Bandit's drawing in Dragon
Winton's dad's house having a pool is mentioned in Helicopter
The fruit bats at dusk from Fruit Bat
Greenie the balloon tied to the G from Mum School
Stripe getting drunk is a call back to him getting drunk and doing a cannonball in Whale Watching
Winton's dad and the terriers' mom as a couple started in TV Shop

Such a good episode, and as always, knows just how to pull on the heart strings.

I also loved Chilli talking about how she and Frisky would go to the overlook in high school but keeping the real reason (drink, smoke, skip school) a secret.
