1. Ripped By mstoll
Copy !req
2. Bobby, your tire is flat.
Copy !req
3. I know.
Copy !req
4. Well, why didn't you change it?
Copy !req
5. Eh, this gets the job done.
Copy !req
6. Sorry about your boy, Hank.
Copy !req
7. If Bobby doesn't learn
to take care of himself,
Copy !req
8. he's going to go from a kid
who can't change a bike tire
Copy !req
9. to a man who can't
change a car tire.
Copy !req
10. Well, maybe his wife
will be handy
Copy !req
11. with that sort of thing.
Copy !req
12. Did ya'll hear about
Maxine Sweeney resigning?
Copy !req
13. "Arlen Welcome Wagon Lady
No Longer Welcome in Arlen.
Copy !req
14. Really?
Let me see that.
Copy !req
15. It says she's
been swiping coupons
Copy !req
16. from the welcome baskets
for years.
Copy !req
17. That's not all.
Copy !req
18. I heard her husband
caught her welcoming
Copy !req
19. one of the new guys in her car.
Copy !req
20. Well, Maxine's humiliating
public loss is my gain.
Copy !req
21. Welcome Wagon Lady
is the most prestigious
Copy !req
22. volunteer position in town!
Copy !req
23. With her out, this could be
the new face of Arlen.
Copy !req
24. This is so much fun!
Copy !req
25. Gossiping and socializing
with other married women!
Copy !req
26. But that part is over now.
Lucky!
Copy !req
27. Ladies, lemonade is served.
Copy !req
28. Unfortunately, we have to drink
out of Lucky's bachelor glasses.
Copy !req
29. I was hoping someone would
buy us real married glasses
Copy !req
30. for our wedding,
but none of you did.
Copy !req
31. So, Luanne and I
have decided it's time
Copy !req
32. to collect our rightful
wedding gifts from everyone.
Copy !req
33. Enjoy your beverages.
Copy !req
34. We'll be coming for you later.
Copy !req
35. Dang it!
Copy !req
36. Bobby?
Copy !req
37. Hey, can you grab
that cereal for me?
Copy !req
38. This bread's too squishy
to knock anything down.
Copy !req
39. Bobby, there's a stepladder
right there.
Copy !req
40. Right.
Copy !req
41. Arlen and I have
some wonderful news.
Copy !req
42. I have been named our town's
new Welcome Wagon Lady.
Copy !req
43. All right, Peggy.
Way to go, Mom!
Copy !req
44. And I already have
my very first family.
Copy !req
45. Wesley and Annette Cherish.
Copy !req
46. Formerly of Fort Worth,
husband is an accountant.
Copy !req
47. Wife is apparently fertile
because they have six children.
Copy !req
48. What's their pet situation?
Copy !req
49. Please say monkey.
Copy !req
50. I do not know,
but your father and I
Copy !req
51. will find out when
we visit them tomorrow.
Copy !req
52. Wait. Why do I have to go?
Copy !req
53. Because when I say, "Hi, I'm
Peggy Hill, and this is my..."
Copy !req
54. there has to be something there.
Copy !req
55. And then there's the
farmer's market every Tuesday.
Copy !req
56. Now, I don't want
to give too much away,
Copy !req
57. but I hope you like corn.
Copy !req
58. We love corn.
Copy !req
59. Boy, the way you make it sound,
Copy !req
60. if Arlen wasn't in Texas,
I'd think it was in heaven.
Copy !req
61. Dad, we're done
cleaning our room.
Copy !req
62. Is there anything else
we can do to help?
Copy !req
63. Well, you can say hello
to Mr. and Mrs. Hill.
Copy !req
64. This is Robin
and Kerri, our oldest.
Copy !req
65. Nice to meet you.
Copy !req
66. Couple of nice boys
you got there.
Copy !req
67. We think they're pretty great.
Copy !req
68. We're looking to
get them involved
Copy !req
69. in the Order of
the Straight Arrow.
Copy !req
70. Do you know who runs
a local chapter?
Copy !req
71. Well, actually,
we don't have one anymore.
Copy !req
72. Once American Idol caught on,
Copy !req
73. it got kind of tough
to schedule a meeting.
Copy !req
74. But we do have many other
great children's activities.
Copy !req
75. There's, uh, the-the arcade.
Copy !req
76. Very popular, arcade.
Copy !req
77. Oh, and the kids
love hanging out
Copy !req
78. at the Whattaburger parking lot.
Copy !req
79. Well, what on earth
do they do there?
Copy !req
80. Well, break glass
bottles, mostly.
Copy !req
81. Shame.
Copy !req
82. You know, I'd be happy to get
the Arrow going again here
Copy !req
83. if I had some help.
Copy !req
84. What do you say, Hank?
Copy !req
85. Want to change some lives?
Copy !req
86. Well, you know, this could be
great for our son, Bobby.
Copy !req
87. I'm in!
Copy !req
88. See, when Arlenians put
their minds to something,
Copy !req
89. there is nothing we can't do.
Copy !req
90. Except for that AIDS walk.
Copy !req
91. We just couldn't get that
together.
Copy !req
92. I can't believe the
Straight Arrow is back!
Copy !req
93. This is so exciting!
Copy !req
94. Well, I'm glad it's back
for Bobby's sake.
Copy !req
95. The Arrow is just
what the boy needs
Copy !req
96. to learn some resourcefulness
Copy !req
97. and stop being,
you know... the way he is.
Copy !req
98. Well, Joseph won't be joining.
Copy !req
99. Thanks to my tutelage,
he's a level six survivalist.
Copy !req
100. He's been trained to use boys
like yours as food and shelter.
Copy !req
101. Check out
these handsome fellas.
Copy !req
102. Look how happy I was there.
Copy !req
103. That little guy didn't know
what was going to hit him.
Copy !req
104. Hey, look, it's my
old Arrow knife.
Copy !req
105. This fellow helped me
make a fishing pole,
Copy !req
106. cut more twine
than I can remember.
Copy !req
107. Now Bobby will get to do
all those things, too.
Copy !req
108. No!
Copy !req
109. Hello, former wedding guest.
Copy !req
110. As you may recall, Luanne and I
were bonded in holy matrimony,
Copy !req
111. and you were there
to witness said event.
Copy !req
112. Oh, yes, beautiful ceremony.
Copy !req
113. You didn't get us a gift!
Copy !req
114. Uh, sure I did.
Copy !req
115. I got you... a star!
Copy !req
116. But I can't eat off a star!
Copy !req
117. The Gribbles prefer a
romantic gift to the practical.
Copy !req
118. Point is, our obligation
is fulfilled.
Copy !req
119. I'll be awaiting
your thank-you note.
Copy !req
120. We're going to need
to change our strategy.
Copy !req
121. Greetings, fellow troopers!
Copy !req
122. I'm Arrowmaster Wesley.
Copy !req
123. Who's ready to have some fun?
Copy !req
124. And who's ready to learn
some self-reliance?
Copy !req
125. Huh?
Copy !req
126. Assistant Arrowmaster Hank
is right.
Copy !req
127. The Arrow is going to teach you
Copy !req
128. to be courageous,
independent men.
Copy !req
129. And we're going start by
building our first fire.
Copy !req
130. All right, let's get outside
and collect some wood.
Copy !req
131. Oh, that's not necessary, Hank.
Copy !req
132. We're building them right here.
Copy !req
133. Inside?
Copy !req
134. Building a fire
is like building a house.
Copy !req
135. You start
with a strong foundation.
Copy !req
136. Then come the walls
and the roof,
Copy !req
137. and finally a family of flame
to live inside.
Copy !req
138. Whoosh!
Copy !req
139. Okay, troopers,
now it's your turn.
Copy !req
140. That was, uh, creative.
Copy !req
141. But don't you think
the kids should learn
Copy !req
142. how to, you know,
make a real fire?
Copy !req
143. Oh, no, Hank,
that's too dangerous.
Copy !req
144. Do you want Bobby to get burned?
Copy !req
145. I don't know. Maybe a little.
Copy !req
146. You're funny.
Copy !req
147. Hey, what do you say we hand out
the Arrow knives?
Copy !req
148. Oh, good, the knives.
Copy !req
149. What the heck is this?
Copy !req
150. Great, huh?
Copy !req
151. Well, it's a toy.
Copy !req
152. Hey, Dad, look!
Copy !req
153. My fire's roaring!
Copy !req
154. Hey, Mom, Straight Arrow
is the best.
Copy !req
155. Everyone's super nice
Copy !req
156. and we made these cool replica
Native American necklaces.
Copy !req
157. Oh, it's very pretty, honey.
Copy !req
158. Sounds like Bobby
had a great time today.
Copy !req
159. But don't Indian necklaces
usually have
Copy !req
160. an eagle claw or a bear tooth?
Copy !req
161. Wesley thought
they were too pointy.
Copy !req
162. Something about
that guy seems off.
Copy !req
163. He had the kids
build a fake fire.
Copy !req
164. It was just lame.
Copy !req
165. Did you say that to him?
Copy !req
166. Is he upset?
Is he moving?
Copy !req
167. I just welcomed him!
Copy !req
168. Well, I didn't say anything,
but I feel like I should.
Copy !req
169. The last thing Bobby needs
is more "pretend" time.
Copy !req
170. Hey, Hank.
Copy !req
171. Boy, this was a
great idea you had,
Copy !req
172. sitting down for a little
Arrow brainstorming session.
Copy !req
173. Well, we owe it to the kids
Copy !req
174. to plan some, you know...
useful activities.
Copy !req
175. Come on. Let's powwow
in the TV room.
Copy !req
176. Annette's home-schooling
in the den.
Copy !req
177. This is the TV room?
I don't see a TV.
Copy !req
178. But... how do you
watch the game?
Copy !req
179. The football game?
Copy !req
180. Oh, no.
Copy !req
181. We discourage the kids
from predatorial sports
Copy !req
182. like football, basketball, tag.
Copy !req
183. Uh, so I was thinking we could
do a lesson on tying knots.
Copy !req
184. Then we could use them
to make something fun,
Copy !req
185. like a bow and arrow.
Copy !req
186. Whoa, bow and arrow is a
little too "hunty-killy."
Copy !req
187. Don't you think?
Copy !req
188. But you know what we could make?
Copy !req
189. A dreamcatcher.
Copy !req
190. Yeah, that sounds awful.
Copy !req
191. You know, Wesley, back when I
was in the Straight Arrow,
Copy !req
192. we did a lot more
"active" activities.
Copy !req
193. Well, the kids
are still learning
Copy !req
194. the same skills we did, Hank.
Copy !req
195. Just in a safe,
controlled environment.
Copy !req
196. No risk, no danger.
Copy !req
197. But...
Daddy!
Copy !req
198. During recess we usually
take a family walk.
Copy !req
199. Would you like to join us?
Copy !req
200. Nope, uh, I'm good.
Copy !req
201. We've come for
our blender, Kahn.
Copy !req
202. I want to crush ice
with the touch of a button!
Copy !req
203. Have you been huffing paint?
Copy !req
204. It's 3:00
in the morning!
Copy !req
205. You didn't get us
a wedding gift,
Copy !req
206. so, now, we're here to collect.
Copy !req
207. Look, we have a year
to buy you a gift.
Copy !req
208. And, how should I
put this delicately?
Copy !req
209. We don't think your
hillbilly marriage
Copy !req
210. going to last that long.
Copy !req
211. Come back in a few months.
Copy !req
212. We're not leaving
without our small appliance.
Copy !req
213. Oh, would you like it
in chrome or buttercup yellow?
Copy !req
214. He didn't even allow you
the dignity of pants.
Copy !req
215. I hate this Wesley guy.
Copy !req
216. You know what we're doing
instead of a campout?
Copy !req
217. A "camp-in."
Copy !req
218. Apparently, the woods
are too unpredictable,
Copy !req
219. so we're spending the night
at the library.
Copy !req
220. Man, that dang ol'
disgraceful, man.
Copy !req
221. Talkin' 'bout won't
let kids be kids, man.
Copy !req
222. Exactly. Kids are supposed
to get dirty and get hurt.
Copy !req
223. We did.
Copy !req
224. Sure, we cut ourselves
and burned ourselves,
Copy !req
225. but that's how we learned
things were sharp and hot.
Copy !req
226. And we turned out all right.
Copy !req
227. Except for Boomhauer's
pinky toe,
Copy !req
228. wherever she may be.
Copy !req
229. Wematanya, guys.
Copy !req
230. Wematanya, Bobby.
Wematanya, Bobby.
Copy !req
231. Wematanya, Hank.
Copy !req
232. Hi, Wesley.
Copy !req
233. You guys will not believe
what I did last night.
Copy !req
234. Face Kicker 3, level 15.
I owned it.
Copy !req
235. All right, Bobby.
Copy !req
236. That's awesome!
Copy !req
237. What's Face Kicker 3?
Copy !req
238. Only the best video game ever.
Copy !req
239. Oh, we don't have
any video games.
Copy !req
240. Wait, you don't have any...
Copy !req
241. You guys have got
to see this right now.
Copy !req
242. That should do it.
Copy !req
243. We should probably
get on the road
Copy !req
244. so we have time to
stretch our hammies.
Copy !req
245. Go, Bobby! Kick him!
Copy !req
246. Double-kick him.
Copy !req
247. What is the matter with you?
Copy !req
248. I don't understand.
Copy !req
249. What did I do?
Copy !req
250. How could you expose
the troop to this garbage?
Copy !req
251. You're a bad influence, Bobby,
Copy !req
252. and I won't have that here.
Copy !req
253. Hey, back off, Wesley.
Copy !req
254. Don't talk to my son like that.
Copy !req
255. Kids, get in the van.
Copy !req
256. Maybe violence is acceptable
in your household, Hank,
Copy !req
257. but it isn't here.
Copy !req
258. Where does he get off
criticizing our son like that?
Copy !req
259. That's what you do at home
behind people's backs.
Copy !req
260. Bobby is a good, normal kid.
Copy !req
261. Not like his little weirdos.
Copy !req
262. Has Arrowmaster Wesley called?
Copy !req
263. Am I kicked out of the troop?
Copy !req
264. The not knowing is killing me.
Copy !req
265. You know, Bobby,
maybe it's for the best
Copy !req
266. if you don't go back.
Copy !req
267. But I need the Arrow, Dad.
Copy !req
268. Arrowmaster
Wesley was right.
Copy !req
269. My video games are violent.
Copy !req
270. Making all these faces explode
can't be good for me.
Copy !req
271. Oh, sure it can, sweetie.
Copy !req
272. Dad, tell Arrowmaster Wesley
Copy !req
273. I'll do whatever it takes
to stay in the troop.
Copy !req
274. Here, destroy this
Copy !req
275. before it destroys anyone else.
Copy !req
276. How could Wesley
bad-mouth Bobby like that?
Copy !req
277. I'm as mad as if...
Copy !req
278. as if someone made fun
of my own son...
Copy !req
279. which I don't have, which...
Copy !req
280. it makes me even more mad!
Copy !req
281. And now he's got Bobby on board
Copy !req
282. with his asinine way
of thinking.
Copy !req
283. What those kids need is a taste
Copy !req
284. of what the Arrow
used to be like.
Copy !req
285. What we got to do is get
that man out of the picture.
Copy !req
286. Let's see.
Copy !req
287. Uh, too complicated...
Copy !req
288. too messy...
Copy !req
289. we'd need a lion.
Copy !req
290. Hey, I think I know a way.
Copy !req
291. I'll offer to chaperone a shift
of the Arrow camp-in.
Copy !req
292. When Wesley isn't around,
Copy !req
293. the kids can finally experience
Copy !req
294. some good-natured
Arrow mischief.
Copy !req
295. I like mischief.
Copy !req
296. I want to help.
Copy !req
297. Me, too.
Copy !req
298. If I can reach just one child
Copy !req
299. through candy and matches,
Copy !req
300. it'll all have been worthwhile.
Copy !req
301. Oh, no, campers.
Copy !req
302. A hungry bear
has entered our campsite.
Copy !req
303. What do we do?
Copy !req
304. Make yourself big and noisy.
Copy !req
305. Well done.
Copy !req
306. You scared that bear away.
Copy !req
307. Isn't this fun, Hank?
Copy !req
308. Oh, I'm so glad you
came around to our side.
Copy !req
309. I think you'll see Bobby
Copy !req
310. will really benefit
from this environment.
Copy !req
311. Well, look at that.
Copy !req
312. Time for you to go.
Copy !req
313. Already? Wow.
Copy !req
314. Thanks again for taking
the midnight shift.
Copy !req
315. The kids say the family bed
seems empty without me.
Copy !req
316. See you in the AM.
Copy !req
317. He's gone.
Copy !req
318. Put down those books, kids.
Copy !req
319. We're gonna show you
Copy !req
320. what an Arrow campout
was like in my day.
Copy !req
321. Dad, this isn't part of
Arrowmaster Wesley's itinerary.
Copy !req
322. Campouts don't have itineraries.
Copy !req
323. Now, this is a campout.
Copy !req
324. Hey!
Copy !req
325. You know, we should let them
run around the parking lot.
Copy !req
326. Running on asphalt.
Copy !req
327. Oh, Wesley would love that.
Copy !req
328. Go on, now.
Copy !req
329. Remember, you're not having fun
unless you get dirty.
Copy !req
330. Uh, hey, guys,
that's far enough.
Copy !req
331. Yeah, come on!
Copy !req
332. Robin, Kerri!
Copy !req
333. Ah, dang it, they're gone.
Copy !req
334. Well, we've still
got five kids left.
Copy !req
335. That's something.
Copy !req
336. We have to find them,
and we have to do it fast,
Copy !req
337. because Wesley
is due back here in an hour.
Copy !req
338. Okay, boys, go grab your gear.
Copy !req
339. You're coming with me.
Copy !req
340. Peggy,
Copy !req
341. you stay here in case
Robin and Kerri come back.
Copy !req
342. Guys, I need you to stall Wesley
Copy !req
343. at his house
to give me as much time
Copy !req
344. as possible to find
his crazy kids.
Copy !req
345. Can do.
Copy !req
346. You bet.
Copy !req
347. Are you sure about this, Dad?
Copy !req
348. There's no way we can find them.
Copy !req
349. We'll get lost.
Copy !req
350. Then the people who come looking
for us will get lost,
Copy !req
351. and we'll lose half the town.
Copy !req
352. Don't worry, son.
No one's getting lost.
Copy !req
353. We're gonna track them.
Copy !req
354. Everything that moves through
the woods leaves a trail,
Copy !req
355. whether you're a deer
or a 13-year-old boy.
Copy !req
356. So start looking for signs
Copy !req
357. like crushed grass,
Copy !req
358. broken branches, footprints...
Copy !req
359. What about frosting?
Copy !req
360. Good eye, son.
Copy !req
361. Okay, they headed this way.
Copy !req
362. Let's go.
Copy !req
363. Fried baloney served on silver.
Copy !req
364. We are midnight-snacking
like kings.
Copy !req
365. You know, I celebrated
my birthday last month
Copy !req
366. and was very disappointed
with the gift response.
Copy !req
367. You make a list.
Copy !req
368. I'll call the boys.
Copy !req
369. Dang it. I
lost the trail.
Copy !req
370. What we need is a high
vantage point, so we
Copy !req
371. can see Robin and Kerri.
Copy !req
372. If we climb this tree,
Copy !req
373. we might be able to spot them.
Copy !req
374. But Arrowmaster Wesley
Copy !req
375. says climbing
only leads to falling.
Copy !req
376. Not if you're smart about it.
Copy !req
377. I'll do it.
Copy !req
378. Great.
Copy !req
379. Now, remember,
climb with your legs
Copy !req
380. and be sure of your footing.
Copy !req
381. I see them!
Copy !req
382. Okay, take out your compass
and give us a heading.
Copy !req
383. Uh... east.
Copy !req
384. That way.
Copy !req
385. So, what's the plan, Dale?
Copy !req
386. The old distressed
motorist routine.
Copy !req
387. We'll tell Wesley
our van is broken.
Copy !req
388. He'll undoubtedly invite us in
to use the phone
Copy !req
389. and then offer us
a cup of cocoa,
Copy !req
390. giving Hank plenty of time
to secure the rogue brothers.
Copy !req
391. Yo, man, heads
up, here-here-here...
Copy !req
392. here he come, man.
Copy !req
393. Excuse me...
Copy !req
394. It burns!
Copy !req
395. It burns so much!
Copy !req
396. Quiet, I think I
heard something.
Copy !req
397. It's them.
Copy !req
398. Now, we can't just
jump out like that.
Copy !req
399. We'll risk scaring them off.
Copy !req
400. If we want to catch those two,
Copy !req
401. we have to get them
to come to us.
Copy !req
402. Like the way my grandpa uses a
duck call when he goes hunting?
Copy !req
403. Well, exactly,
but a duck call for kids.
Copy !req
404. Dad, I've got an idea.
Copy !req
405. Yeah, you're toast!
Copy !req
406. Shh... is that Bobby
playing Face Kicker?
Copy !req
407. What's he doing out here?
Copy !req
408. Who cares?
Copy !req
409. I want to kick some faces.
Copy !req
410. Okay, boys, fun's over.
Copy !req
411. My boys!
Copy !req
412. Oh, Robbie, Kay-Kay,
Copy !req
413. are you all right?
Copy !req
414. The kids are fine.
Copy !req
415. We were just outside
getting some fresh air
Copy !req
416. and, uh, you know,
listening to the crickets.
Copy !req
417. Sorry, Hank.
Copy !req
418. We told him everything.
Copy !req
419. He wouldn't stop spraying.
Copy !req
420. How could you be
so irresponsible,
Copy !req
421. letting these boys run
around and eat cupcakes
Copy !req
422. like a pack of wild animals?
Copy !req
423. Irresponsible?
Copy !req
424. I let them outside.
Copy !req
425. I gave them some sugar.
Copy !req
426. So what?
Copy !req
427. They needed to have some fun.
Copy !req
428. Oh, so you think you know
what's best for my kids?
Copy !req
429. Robin has ADHD.
Copy !req
430. And Kerri's hyperglycemic.
Copy !req
431. Uh, sorry about the, uh, fun.
Copy !req
432. How I raise my children
Copy !req
433. is my business, not yours.
Copy !req
434. Come on, boys,
let's get you home
Copy !req
435. and check you for ticks.
Copy !req
436. Huh.
Copy !req
437. He, uh, has some good points.
Copy !req
438. I feel terrible, Hank.
Copy !req
439. I had no idea
how emotionally involved
Copy !req
440. I'd become
with my Welcome Wagon families.
Copy !req
441. I cannot take the stress.
Copy !req
442. I am out.
Copy !req
443. Hey, Dad, we want to
learn more cool Arrow stuff,
Copy !req
444. like what you taught us
in the woods.
Copy !req
445. Totally. Please. Yeah.
Copy !req
446. We brought back some sticks.
Copy !req
447. Can we make something
fun with them?
Copy !req
448. Well, sure.
Copy !req
449. How about we whittle
a fishing spear.
Copy !req
450. Here, you'll need this.
Copy !req
451. Cool.
Copy !req
452. Now, remember, when
you open a pocketknife,
Copy !req
453. you need to keep your hand...
Copy !req
454. Ow!
Copy !req
455. Are you okay?
Copy !req
456. Uh, you might want
Copy !req
457. to hold your hand
above your head.
Copy !req
458. It burns so much!
Copy !req
459. Ripped By mstoll
