1. You know...
Copy !req
2. you are so lucky
to go to prom.
Copy !req
3. I never got
to go to mine.
Copy !req
4. Yeah, uh-huh. I don't know
Copy !req
5. if I should get
a blowout or an updo.
Copy !req
6. I missed my prom because I had
to testify against my momma.
Copy !req
7. Everyone got the most romantic
night of their life,
Copy !req
8. and all I got was
my momma sent to jail.
Copy !req
9. I think I'll get an updo.
Copy !req
10. The bailiff that had
Copy !req
11. to wrestle my
mamma had an updo.
Copy !req
12. You're gonna look so pretty.
Copy !req
13. I put some syrup
in your soda
Copy !req
14. because I know you
like stuff sweet.
Copy !req
15. How many spoons?
Copy !req
16. I don't know.
I just poured.
Copy !req
17. Bobby, you poured good.
Copy !req
18. Why don't you treat
yourself to one?
Copy !req
19. You sure know
how to live, Lucky.
Copy !req
20. I had such a
stressful day.
Copy !req
21. I can't wait till prom
season is over on Saturday.
Copy !req
22. Then you and me
and teenie Lucky
Copy !req
23. can go out on a
romantic date.
Copy !req
24. You know I would love to,
Copy !req
25. but right now I'm rigging
my truck for stumping.
Copy !req
26. What's "stumping"?
Copy !req
27. It's when you go hunting
for a stump of burled walnut—
Copy !req
28. the most valuable
of all the trophy woods—
Copy !req
29. and pull it out of the ground.
Copy !req
30. I'll come with you.
Copy !req
31. I could brew
some sun tea
Copy !req
32. and bring a
picnic basket.
Copy !req
33. The ants will get
into our food
Copy !req
34. and then we'll
laugh and laugh.
Copy !req
35. I'm sorry, but stumping
is a gentleman's pursuit.
Copy !req
36. So is sticking and catfisting
and everything you do.
Copy !req
37. Luanne, my life would be easier
without this passion,
Copy !req
38. but it wouldn't be as full.
Copy !req
39. Uh, Peggy, my steak
Copy !req
40. seems kind of small.
Copy !req
41. You're not pulling the new
guidelines on me, are you?
Copy !req
42. No, I am not.
Copy !req
43. I just didn't
realize that Luanne
Copy !req
44. would be with us tonight,
Copy !req
45. so I had to re-portion.
Copy !req
46. I thought I was going
out with Lucky,
Copy !req
47. but he doesn't have the time
to spend with me.
Copy !req
48. Huh. So I guess you had
nowhere else to go?
Copy !req
49. Hank.
Copy !req
50. What's she want?
A piece off my plate?
Copy !req
51. There's not a whole lot there.
Copy !req
52. Yep.
Yep.
Copy !req
53. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
54. I've had it since
I was 12,
Copy !req
55. a constant, high-pitched
ringing in my left ear.
Copy !req
56. I guess it's
something I'll just
Copy !req
57. have to learn
to live with.
Copy !req
58. Luanne's not
home, Lucky.
Copy !req
59. We're not here
to see Luanne.
Copy !req
60. We came to visit
you, Uncle Hank.
Copy !req
61. See, I'm looking to get
more power into my winch.
Copy !req
62. Hmm, continue.
Copy !req
63. You see, winches ain't
something the three of us know.
Copy !req
64. What I know abouts dogs.
Copy !req
65. You need something
done about a dog,
Copy !req
66. I'm the one you see.
Copy !req
67. Lucky, your man's
making me nervous.
Copy !req
68. Mud Dauber didn't
mean to scare you.
Copy !req
69. Did you, Mud Dauber?
Not at present.
Copy !req
70. He's just upset
Copy !req
71. 'cause he and Elvin
can't help me
Copy !req
72. bring in a 48 inch
stump of burled walnut.
Copy !req
73. It's not we
don't want to.
Copy !req
74. It's all 'cause judge says
Copy !req
75. we can't cross
the county line.
Copy !req
76. Boy, I've never
heard of a 48 inch
Copy !req
77. stump of burled walnut.
Copy !req
78. You're talking diameter, right?
Copy !req
79. He don't talk nothing else.
Copy !req
80. It's real, all right.
Copy !req
81. My grandpappy first
found it back in 1923.
Copy !req
82. Grandpappy was
on a church picnic,
Copy !req
83. and got separated
from his group.
Copy !req
84. A storm came up over the hills
and Grandpappy
Copy !req
85. had to take shelter in what
turned out to be the most
Copy !req
86. valuable stump in all of Texas.
Copy !req
87. As fate would have it,
Copy !req
88. Grandpappy took ill
and was called to his maker
Copy !req
89. before he had a chance
to bring it in.
Copy !req
90. I hunted that piece of walnut
for many a year.
Copy !req
91. And then one day,
I finally found it.
Copy !req
92. Set my winch to it
and everything.
Copy !req
93. But the cable snapped.
Copy !req
94. I went to the Costco
to buy a new one,
Copy !req
95. slipped on pee pee,
got my settlement moneys
Copy !req
96. and the rest is history.
Copy !req
97. That stump was worth $15,000,
Copy !req
98. and that's in back then dollars.
Copy !req
99. And due to Elvin and Mud
Dauber's... indiscretions,
Copy !req
100. I am down
fellow adventurers.
Copy !req
101. I've always wanted to
see walnut in the wild.
Copy !req
102. And Boomhauer's
always wanted
Copy !req
103. a walnut dashboard.
Copy !req
104. Yeah, and my rifle could
use a burled walnut stock.
Copy !req
105. And I need a walnut... hat!
Copy !req
106. And I... Oh, I
just want to come.
Copy !req
107. You know, in the old days,
Copy !req
108. that stuff would be
crawling with nits.
Copy !req
109. Don't worry, little boy.
I'm going to give
Copy !req
110. you the best cut ever!
Copy !req
111. Because prom pictures
are forever.
Copy !req
112. As are not prom pictures,
Copy !req
113. which are all I have.
Copy !req
114. I'm not going
to the prom. I can't.
Copy !req
115. Of course you can.
Copy !req
116. Everyone goes to the prom now,
Copy !req
117. even the crippled
and the gay.
Copy !req
118. I don't have a date.
Copy !req
119. Really?
Copy !req
120. I'd go with you
in a heartbeat.
Copy !req
121. Well... would you like to go
with me to the prom?
Copy !req
122. Me? Oh.
Copy !req
123. You are such
a sweet boy.
Copy !req
124. I would love to, but...
Copy !req
125. I already
have a fiancé.
Copy !req
126. Oh.
Hey, I've got nothing
going on that night
Copy !req
127. if you wanna grab a taco.
Copy !req
128. I'm not saying
stumping isn't risky.
Copy !req
129. When you're out there
with nothing but chains,
Copy !req
130. beer and a winch,
you could rip your arm off
Copy !req
131. and there ain't
no one out there to sue.
Copy !req
132. Hey, Baby Girl,
Copy !req
133. and my girl's baby.
Copy !req
134. Look at my new winch.
Copy !req
135. That's nice.
Copy !req
136. Hey Lucky,
Copy !req
137. the inspectors are
letting That's Amore
Copy !req
138. open back up tomorrow night.
Copy !req
139. Well, bring me home
some osso bucco then,
Copy !req
140. 'cause me and the boys
are going out.
Copy !req
141. Fine, then I, too,
will be going out
Copy !req
142. with a boy as well.
Copy !req
143. To the Arlen High School Prom.
Copy !req
144. I have been asked.
Copy !req
145. No way, Luanne.
Copy !req
146. You will not wear
Copy !req
147. another man's
wrist corsage.
Copy !req
148. If you are not going
to take me out
on a Saturday night,
Copy !req
149. or ever, why shouldn't I go?
Copy !req
150. Because I've seen the movies
Copy !req
151. and I know what
goes on at prom.
Copy !req
152. You're sitting
this one out.
Copy !req
153. Nu-uh, I'm not!
Copy !req
154. Prom night is the most
romantic night of the year,
Copy !req
155. and I am not spending
it alone again.
Copy !req
156. Luanne, I'm not
messing around here.
Copy !req
157. If you go to that prom...
Copy !req
158. Well, that does it!
Copy !req
159. Well, if you go
stumping, then...
Copy !req
160. then that does it!
Copy !req
161. Oh, no!
Copy !req
162. Don't do this,
you guys!
Copy !req
163. Lay down your pride and give way
to the glory of love!
Copy !req
164. I'm going stumpin'.
Copy !req
165. Well, I guess
that does it.
Copy !req
166. I cannot believe
Copy !req
167. someone in this family is
finally going to their prom.
Copy !req
168. I could have gone with
an ugly or unpopular guy,
Copy !req
169. but I stuck by my principles.
Copy !req
170. Sometimes I wish
my leg was a stump
Copy !req
171. so Lucky would
pay attention to me.
Copy !req
172. Is that wrong?
Yes.
Copy !req
173. You should not
be fantasizing
Copy !req
174. about being a hunk of wood.
Copy !req
175. You should be thinking
Copy !req
176. about this magical
night ahead.
Copy !req
177. The gymnasium will
be transformed
Copy !req
178. with glitter
and crepe paper.
Copy !req
179. There might even be balloons
in the basketball hoops.
Copy !req
180. I never dreamed
that going to a dance
Copy !req
181. with a 15-year-old boy
Copy !req
182. I barely know
could be so wonderful!
Copy !req
183. Oh!
Copy !req
184. Oh, Luanne,
tomorrow night,
Copy !req
185. I will be living
vicariously through you.
Copy !req
186. Thank you!
Copy !req
187. Okay, when you dance,
I want you to do it in a way
Copy !req
188. that will make people form
a circle around you and clap.
Copy !req
189. So, what'll it be—
the Linda Evans
Copy !req
190. or the Joan
Collins?
Copy !req
191. Come on, Bobby!
Copy !req
192. Keep brushing!
Copy !req
193. You've got to flatten
this thing out!
Copy !req
194. I'm trying, but it
keeps on jumping back!
Copy !req
195. Who is it?
Copy !req
196. I'm kind of having
a tux emergency.
Copy !req
197. It's Kevin!
Copy !req
198. You can't be here!
Copy !req
199. It's bad luck to see
me before the prom!
Copy !req
200. I think that's
on your wedding day, Luanne.
Copy !req
201. Oh.
Copy !req
202. This was all
the tux shop had left.
Copy !req
203. I thought
I'd look like James Bond.
Copy !req
204. I'm not gonna look
like James Bond.
Copy !req
205. Oh, Kevin,
don't worry.
Copy !req
206. What you wear is so
much less important
Copy !req
207. than what I'm wearing.
Copy !req
208. What's wrong?
Copy !req
209. Them.
Copy !req
210. That's just Elvin
and Mud Dauber.
Copy !req
211. Go away! Git!
Copy !req
212. I'm busy!
Copy !req
213. Who the hell is he?
Copy !req
214. This is my
friend, Kevin.
Copy !req
215. Kevin is taking me to the prom.
Copy !req
216. So you're out going
to some damn prom
Copy !req
217. behind Lucky's back?
Copy !req
218. Who's Lucky?
Shut up.
Copy !req
219. Aunt Peggy!
Copy !req
220. Elvin and Mud Dauber
are making trouble!
Copy !req
221. Not in my house.
Copy !req
222. Not unless
you want some of this.
Copy !req
223. Relax.
Copy !req
224. It's just oven cleaner,
but they don't know that.
Copy !req
225. We've been off road
for a while now, Lucky.
Copy !req
226. Do you have a map?
Copy !req
227. Uh-huh.
Copy !req
228. Must be an implant.
Copy !req
229. I wonder who did his.
Copy !req
230. The guy who did mine
did not inspire confidence.
Copy !req
231. Lucky here. What?
Copy !req
232. Ow!
Copy !req
233. You sure about that?
Copy !req
234. Well, Luanne's
made her decision.
Copy !req
235. She's going to the
prom with that kid.
Copy !req
236. Uh...
Copy !req
237. when you're stumpin',
Copy !req
238. you don't talk
about relationships, right?
Copy !req
239. Nope.
Copy !req
240. Well, all right.
Copy !req
241. What did Lucky say?
Copy !req
242. Oh, he's hurtin'.
Copy !req
243. I can tell it
in his voice.
Copy !req
244. We got to make this right.
Copy !req
245. I wonder what
sound you'll make.
Copy !req
246. I'm 15 years old,
and I'm a high school senior.
Copy !req
247. I've lived through everything.
Copy !req
248. I've been teased,
I've been pantsed,
Copy !req
249. I've had my head
shoved in the toilet.
Copy !req
250. What can you do to me
that hasn't been done?
Copy !req
251. Kill you.
Copy !req
252. Luanne, you look
almost lovely.
Copy !req
253. Almost?
Copy !req
254. That's why I want
you to have this.
Copy !req
255. A tiara!
Copy !req
256. It's so beautiful.
Copy !req
257. Just take good
care of it.
Copy !req
258. It has been in the family
since Halloween of 1973.
Copy !req
259. Five men,
Copy !req
260. one stump.
Copy !req
261. This is the sort of thing
they write books about.
Copy !req
262. You know what would make
for an even better book?
Copy !req
263. If one of us turned
into a werewolf right now.
Copy !req
264. Uh, can't do it.
Copy !req
265. You okay?
Copy !req
266. We're getting close.
Copy !req
267. That was the exact same
gopher hole
Copy !req
268. I tripped in years ago.
Copy !req
269. And that's the same branch
I hit my head on.
Copy !req
270. I stumbled forward on my hands
and knees for 15...
Copy !req
271. No, 16 paces until...
Copy !req
272. Oh!
Copy !req
273. There it is!
Copy !req
274. Oh, my God.
Copy !req
275. That's six burls
per square inch.
Copy !req
276. I've found you,
you burled son of a bitch!
Copy !req
277. It's my prom date!
Copy !req
278. Coming!
Copy !req
279. This is such
a magical night!
Copy !req
280. I feel just
like Cinderella!
Copy !req
281. Little boy, did you used
to be a mouse?
Copy !req
282. I'm Kevin's brother.
Copy !req
283. He asked me to
bring you this.
Copy !req
284. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
285. Kevin isn't taking me
to the prom.
Copy !req
286. I used to have a fiancé
who loved me!
Copy !req
287. Then he left me, and I thought,
Copy !req
288. "Oh, well, I get
to go to the prom.
Copy !req
289. At least I'll get
to be happy one night!"
Copy !req
290. But now,
Copy !req
291. I'll never be happy ever again!
Copy !req
292. Why is this happening,
Kevin's little brother?
Copy !req
293. Do you have any candy?
Copy !req
294. I have no candy, either!
Copy !req
295. Go ahead, Bobby, ask her.
Copy !req
296. Don't make me, please!
Copy !req
297. Ugh!
Copy !req
298. Luanne, I know it's
not for a few years,
Copy !req
299. but will you go
to my prom with me?
Copy !req
300. Oh, honey, crying will
not make this go away.
Copy !req
301. I will.
Copy !req
302. There's nothing to do,
Aunt Peggy.
Copy !req
303. Lucky's gone.
Copy !req
304. And Kevin's gone.
Copy !req
305. Maybe I'll just
crash the prom and...
Copy !req
306. everyone will suffer.
Copy !req
307. Well, I cannot make Lucky
a better man.
Copy !req
308. but I think I can help.
Copy !req
309. Come on,
get your tiara.
Copy !req
310. Kevin!
Copy !req
311. You are taking
Luanne to the prom.
Copy !req
312. You have to take me, Kevin!
I traded my fiancé for this!
Copy !req
313. But those men said
they'll kill me.
Copy !req
314. They'll have to get
past me first.
Copy !req
315. Well, you are pretty scary.
Copy !req
316. Yes, I am.
Copy !req
317. Now are you gonna to clip
on this bow tie, or am I?
Copy !req
318. Okay, guys, looks like we're
a little short on cable.
Copy !req
319. So all we need is to get
a few crowbars
Copy !req
320. underneath the stump
Copy !req
321. and leverage up
about six inches.
Copy !req
322. Then Lucky and I will pull
the winch cable taut,
Copy !req
323. lock it on
Copy !req
324. and pull it out.
Copy !req
325. All right, I'm
ready, let's go.
Let's go, man.
Copy !req
326. Yay!
Copy !req
327. Okay, Lucky, let's do it.
Copy !req
328. One, two, three... now!
Copy !req
329. Just another inch or two!
Copy !req
330. Lucky, put your weight into it!
Copy !req
331. Oh, man, come on, man.
Copy !req
332. Lucky!
Copy !req
333. Have you seen this picture
Copy !req
334. of Luanne eating pancakes?
Copy !req
335. What sounds good to eat?
Copy !req
336. I'm not
really hungry.
Copy !req
337. No, no, no,
this is going to be
Copy !req
338. the best night
of my life, damn it!
Copy !req
339. You will have chicken
and I will have steak!
Copy !req
340. Just like I always imagined!
Copy !req
341. Kevin, you've got nothing
to worry about.
Copy !req
342. Elvin and Mud Dauber are not
going to do anything to you.
Copy !req
343. Not when they're already on
probation for violent crime.
Copy !req
344. What did they do?
Copy !req
345. I don't know.
Something with a nail gun.
Copy !req
346. Oh, there's an old lady
selling roses.
Copy !req
347. We will take one!
Copy !req
348. Oh, face it,
Copy !req
349. she was meant
for better men than us.
Copy !req
350. We were so close.
Copy !req
351. I've never felt
closer to anyone.
Copy !req
352. Talkin' bout ol'
giving up, man.
Copy !req
353. Come on, man, you ain't got no
pain, there ain't no gain, man.
Copy !req
354. Boomhauer is right.
Copy !req
355. It took this long to find it,
Copy !req
356. we're not letting it go.
Yay!
Copy !req
357. So, Uncle Hank, you think
I should apologize to Luanne
Copy !req
358. and tell her that I love her
with all my heart
Copy !req
359. and if I can't do
something with her,
Copy !req
360. it's not worth doing at all?
Copy !req
361. Don't take this
the wrong way, Lucky,
Copy !req
362. but I sincerely
don't care what you do.
Copy !req
363. I got ya.
Copy !req
364. Okay, let's do it!
Copy !req
365. Huh.
Copy !req
366. Everything looks
so beautiful.
Copy !req
367. Would you start
having a good time?
Copy !req
368. This night is going to make up
for how crappy my life is.
Copy !req
369. Let's dance.
Copy !req
370. I don't know.
Copy !req
371. Come on, it's easy.
Copy !req
372. I put my head here
Copy !req
373. and you put your
hand right here,
Copy !req
374. and maybe if you're lucky
you'll feel the baby kick.
Copy !req
375. Okay, go ahead.
Copy !req
376. Not so fast.
Copy !req
377. Okay, next.
Copy !req
378. Elvin?
What?
Copy !req
379. Have you ever been bit
by a brown recluse spider?
Copy !req
380. If I had, I'd be dead,
Copy !req
381. and you wouldn't be asking me
about it now, would you?
Copy !req
382. Shh. I see 'em.
Copy !req
383. Touch dancing.
Copy !req
384. Did you hear something?
Copy !req
385. Kevin, we're fine.
Copy !req
386. It's completely safe.
Copy !req
387. Aunt Peggy, help!
Copy !req
388. Coming!
Copy !req
389. Kevin, you are going
