1. All right, Bobby,
Copy !req
2. why don't you read that
Sunday school report to me
Copy !req
3. like I'm a customer,
Copy !req
4. and you're trying to win my business.
Copy !req
5. Okay.
Copy !req
6. The man I admire most
is my dad, Hank Hill.
Copy !req
7. He sells propane and propane accessories.
Copy !req
8. I like it already, son.
Copy !req
9. You've grabbed my attention
and got me eager for more.
Copy !req
10. Howdy, Hank!
Copy !req
11. Mr. Strickland.
Copy !req
12. What you got there, ol' top?
Copy !req
13. "The man I most admire, my daddy."
Copy !req
14. Oh, you got that right, Bobby.
Copy !req
15. 15 years, I promoted him 15 times,
Copy !req
16. all the way to assistant manager.
Copy !req
17. You should be proud, son.
Copy !req
18. You're his seed.
Copy !req
19. Hm. I'm my Daddy's seed.
Copy !req
20. Hank, I got to grunt.
Copy !req
21. Let's take a little meeting in the back.
Copy !req
22. Bobby, here's the key
Copy !req
23. to the march of dimes gum ball machine.
Copy !req
24. All you can eat.
Copy !req
25. Hank, you ever heard of Holloway hollows?
Copy !req
26. Isn't that that new development
Copy !req
27. that promises country club living
Copy !req
28. at price club prices?
Copy !req
29. Yeah, that's the one.
Copy !req
30. They're going to need a propane supplier.
Copy !req
31. Holloway himself is coming
down here from Boston
Copy !req
32. to check us out.
Copy !req
33. This one is big, Hank.
Copy !req
34. Here's your sales kit.
Copy !req
35. Rental car keys?
Copy !req
36. Big old caddy.
Copy !req
37. Yankees eat that stuff up
Copy !req
38. like a baby at his mama's malt shop.
Copy !req
39. What the heck is this?
Copy !req
40. Well, that's one of them
Copy !req
41. new counterfeit-proof Benny Franklin
hundred dollar bills.
Copy !req
42. Sir, this is Hank Hill you're talking to.
Copy !req
43. I'm not going to need
all that James Bond stuff
Copy !req
44. to make the deal.
Copy !req
45. Well, Hank, I don't want to sneeze
Copy !req
46. during your back-swing,
but we got some competition,
Copy !req
47. MF Thatherton.
Copy !req
48. Th… Thatherton?
Copy !req
49. Sorry to call a meeting
in the skunk works, boys.
Copy !req
50. Now I promise not to make a habit of it.
Copy !req
51. Boy, Thatherton,
those are some pretty tough sales quotas,
Copy !req
52. I tell you what.
Copy !req
53. You want to meet the quota?
Copy !req
54. Take some propane to an old-age home.
Copy !req
55. Tell them it's oxygen.
Copy !req
56. You can't do that to old people.
Copy !req
57. Aren't you the company man.
Copy !req
58. You see, that's the difference between us.
Copy !req
59. You're a worker bee,
Copy !req
60. and I'm a queen.
Copy !req
61. Say huh?
Copy !req
62. I'm going out on my own.
Copy !req
63. Thatherton Fuels.
Copy !req
64. I already signed Strickland's top
three accounts.
Copy !req
65. Well, you got one heck of a nerve.
Copy !req
66. Plotting against a man
Copy !req
67. while his seat is still warm.
Copy !req
68. Take a good look around, Hank.
Copy !req
69. 'Cause you ain't going nowhere.
Copy !req
70. That's where you're wrong.
Copy !req
71. You can count on me, sir.
Copy !req
72. I appreciate your vote
of confidence, and I just…
Copy !req
73. Hank… A little privacy.
Copy !req
74. Do you mind?
Copy !req
75. Ooh, look at this.
Copy !req
76. It's long…
Copy !req
77. It's so… It's big.
Copy !req
78. Look at the size
of old Ben Franklin's head.
Copy !req
79. He truly was the homely genius.
Copy !req
80. Well, take a good look
Copy !req
81. 'cause it's going back
to Strickland on Monday.
Copy !req
82. But aren't you supposed to spend it
on your big client?
Copy !req
83. When have I ever needed
Copy !req
84. a three-figure entertainment budget
Copy !req
85. to sell propane?
Copy !req
86. I'm going to close this deal
Copy !req
87. the same way I always do.
Copy !req
88. A cup of coffee and a slice of pie
Copy !req
89. and a handshake,
Copy !req
90. and if I hit a snag, pie a la mode.
Copy !req
91. Would you stop that?
Copy !req
92. That horn is for highway
emergency use only!
Copy !req
93. And you two get off.
Copy !req
94. I've got to return this pimpmobile
in the same condition.
Copy !req
95. Oh.
Copy !req
96. Why you have silly cow car, Hank?
Copy !req
97. Hank's entertaining a business prospect
Copy !req
98. from the east, Mr. Kahn.
Copy !req
99. Oh, I see.
Copy !req
100. Hank suck up to make sale.
Copy !req
101. Kahn, I have never had
to suck up to make a sale,
Copy !req
102. and I never will.
Copy !req
103. What do you suppose
the Holloways look like?
Copy !req
104. You know those boston types.
Copy !req
105. Probably small, pale
and wearing penny loafers.
Copy !req
106. Put her there, partner.
Copy !req
107. Mr. Holloway?
Copy !req
108. Is a prom dress tight after a six-pack?
Copy !req
109. Which way to your Cadillac?
Copy !req
110. This one is in the bag.
Copy !req
111. How'd you like to freshen up
with a nice, hot towel?
Copy !req
112. Ooh…
Copy !req
113. And here's one for you.
Copy !req
114. Dang! These are Texas-sized hot towels!
Copy !req
115. You know, Peggy heated these towels
Copy !req
116. on our propane-powered hot point range.
Copy !req
117. Did a great job, I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
118. "I'll tell you what," I like that.
Copy !req
119. I'm gonna say it while I'm here.
Copy !req
120. Well, I'd like to tell you what.
Copy !req
121. Strickland can do
to meet your energy needs.
Copy !req
122. You see, at Strickland,
the customer comes first.
Copy !req
123. It's kind of interesting.
Copy !req
124. The word customer begins with C-U.
Copy !req
125. Well, we don't "see you"
as just another sale
Copy !req
126. but as a member of our team.
Copy !req
127. Pie.
Copy !req
128. Do you like pie?
Copy !req
129. I do.
Copy !req
130. They got the best pie
in town here, Mr. Holloway,
Copy !req
131. and it's cooked with
Strickland propane, too.
Copy !req
132. Hey, look,
there's a real old Texas jukebox,
Copy !req
133. just like in the last picture show.
Copy !req
134. What'll you have, Hank?
Copy !req
135. Salesman's special?
Copy !req
136. Yes, ma'am.
Copy !req
137. Three slices of pecan pie
Copy !req
138. and two cups of coffee.
Copy !req
139. And three scoops of ice cream.
Copy !req
140. Now hold on, son.
Copy !req
141. Let me let you in
on a little salesman trick.
Copy !req
142. Don't start off with ice cream right away.
Copy !req
143. 'Cause if you run into a hitch,
Copy !req
144. you got no place to go.
Copy !req
145. What kind of Texas jukebox is that
for crying out loud?
Copy !req
146. It doesn't even have
the theme from Dallas.
Copy !req
147. Mr. Holloway,
I won't beat around the bush.
Copy !req
148. There's 14 reasons to go
with Strickland propane.
Copy !req
149. 14 very compelling reasons…
Copy !req
150. Say, I'm going to call you JR jrom now on.
Copy !req
151. Well, howdy, Hank.
Copy !req
152. Ain't you gonna introduce me
to your golden-throated friend here?
Copy !req
153. Sure, I'll introduce you.
Copy !req
154. Mr. Holloway,
this is the only man ever censured
Copy !req
155. by the Texas Propane Association
Copy !req
156. for lewdness and conduct unbecoming
a propane salesman.
Copy !req
157. MF Thatherton.
Copy !req
158. Thatherton Fuels.
Copy !req
159. Dang glad to meet you, MF.
Copy !req
160. The MF Stands for…
Copy !req
161. My friend!
Copy !req
162. 'Cause at Thatherton Fuels,
Copy !req
163. we're everybody's friend,
Copy !req
164. and we want to be
your friend, too, Mr. Holloway.
Copy !req
165. Who's this, Hank?
Copy !req
166. Your district sales manager?
Copy !req
167. I'm his son, Bobby.
Copy !req
168. I'm waiting for my pie.
Copy !req
169. I can see you get your sense of humor
from your daddy.
Copy !req
170. He gets his sense of humor
Copy !req
171. from both his parents,
thank you very much.
Copy !req
172. Pleasure meeting you, Holloway.
Copy !req
173. I'll, uh, let ol' Hank get on
with his 14 reasons speech.
Copy !req
174. Bobby, you can tell
your Sunday school class
Copy !req
175. that you met a real Texan today,
Copy !req
176. MF Thatherton.
Copy !req
177. Uh, Jo Tiffany, you better make
that pie a la mode.
Copy !req
178. Under your very feet, Mr. Holloway
Copy !req
179. is what's called the propane crossroads.
Copy !req
180. It's the only place in the world
Copy !req
181. you can straddle the east
and west pipelines.
Copy !req
182. You want Texas, Mr. Holloway.
Copy !req
183. This is Texas.
Copy !req
184. Where are the oil wells?
Copy !req
185. Where are the rattlers?
Copy !req
186. JR, I want to buy a six-shooter.
Copy !req
187. Careful, now.
Copy !req
188. This frito pie is spicy, spicy, spicy.
Copy !req
189. Oh… Oh.
Copy !req
190. Mmm. Oh, that's… that's yummy, yes.
Copy !req
191. It's wonderful.
Copy !req
192. But Peggy, you shouldn't
make such a fuss over me.
Copy !req
193. I just want you to be
yourself while I'm here.
Copy !req
194. That is the only gal I know how to be.
Copy !req
195. I told you nicely to buy me a gun.
Copy !req
196. Well, I know it's always fun
to take home a keepsake,
Copy !req
197. but your time is so valuable.
Copy !req
198. Whew! Look at all this nothing.
Copy !req
199. What's the suicide rate out here?
Copy !req
200. Uh, do you mean right here?
Copy !req
201. Cause this is where
Holloway hollows is going up.
Copy !req
202. Something's wrong.
Copy !req
203. Yeah, it's the darn unions.
Copy !req
204. Come on, boys.
Finish up them Little Debbies
Copy !req
205. and get back to work.
Copy !req
206. No, no. Something's wrong with you.
Copy !req
207. Where's your cowboy boots?
Copy !req
208. I don't have cowboy boots.
Copy !req
209. You know, Mr. Holloway
Copy !req
210. Texas has changed a lot since the 1850s.
Copy !req
211. Aw, geez, I just wanted to see some boots
Copy !req
212. or spurs or anything.
Copy !req
213. I come all the way from Boston
to see Texas,
Copy !req
214. and you don't have
real boots or guns or nothing.
Copy !req
215. Thatherton!
Copy !req
216. Uh, you know, Mr. Holloway
Copy !req
217. I once had a pair of boots.
Copy !req
218. And, uh… and then, one day,
Copy !req
219. my Uncle Fess lost his in a tornado.
Copy !req
220. Oh, you mean a twister?
Copy !req
221. - Yup.
- Huh?
Copy !req
222. A big Texas-sized twister.
Copy !req
223. I tell you what.
Copy !req
224. Well, that dang twister
Copy !req
225. sucked his boots plumb off.
Copy !req
226. Well, you can't bury a man
in his stocking feet.
Copy !req
227. It's the cowboy code.
Copy !req
228. So I gave him my boots,
Copy !req
229. and that's the story
of what happened to my boots.
Copy !req
230. Wow, this is great, JR.
Copy !req
231. I always thought
you were afraid to wear boots
Copy !req
232. 'cause your toes were too fat.
Copy !req
233. In the summer of 1953,
Copy !req
234. something that I treasure
happened right there
Copy !req
235. in that pink house.
Copy !req
236. What, Peggy?
Copy !req
237. The noted poet, Ogden Nash
wrote his poem, The Cow.
Copy !req
238. "The cow is of the bovine ilk."
Copy !req
239. "One end is moo, the other milk."
Copy !req
240. Sir, uh…
Copy !req
241. I don't really recommend a cowboy boot
Copy !req
242. for a chubby-toed customer like yourself.
Copy !req
243. You might want to try
a Birkenstock sandal.
Copy !req
244. Shut the hell up.
Copy !req
245. Here's your spurs, JR
Copy !req
246. I helped pick them out.
Copy !req
247. Well, that sure would complete the outfit,
Copy !req
248. but I don't want to scar the carpet.
Copy !req
249. Who cares about the carpet?
Copy !req
250. You hurt my feelings.
Copy !req
251. You know what else he needs?
Copy !req
252. A hat.
Copy !req
253. Yeah! Yeah!
Copy !req
254. A big old cowboy hat.
Copy !req
255. I want to see Texas with a guy
Copy !req
256. in a big cowboy hat like mine.
Copy !req
257. I'm not wearing a dumb hat!
Copy !req
258. Ha! I thought you were a real Texan
Copy !req
259. like that Thatherton fellow
from the coffee shop.
Copy !req
260. I'm only not wearing the hat
because of my solemn vow I made
Copy !req
261. to president Lyndon Baines Johnson
Copy !req
262. on the occasion of the birth
of his daughter, Lynda Bird.
Copy !req
263. Lyndon Johnson killed our Kennedy.
Copy !req
264. Oh.
Copy !req
265. And this!
Copy !req
266. Hey, man! Look at them
rhinestone cowboy, man.
Copy !req
267. Oh, lord. Not now!
Copy !req
268. Look, JR.
Copy !req
269. An injun and a hillbilly.
Copy !req
270. Hey, man!
Copy !req
271. You might want to call
Dr. Scholls, man, 911.
Copy !req
272. Y'all look like
that dang old Hoss Cartwright
Copy !req
273. with that old crap man. Yo!
Copy !req
274. - Alright. Turn.
- Toe cramp! Toe cramp!
Copy !req
275. Hurry!
Copy !req
276. Oh… All right!
Copy !req
277. What is going on, Hank?
Copy !req
278. The way Bobby tells it
Copy !req
279. you bought my freedom from the Comanches
with your rodeo winnings?
Copy !req
280. And you were worth every penny.
Copy !req
281. Uh, look, Peggy
Copy !req
282. being a salesman is
a little like being an actor.
Copy !req
283. I'm just playing a role, you know,
Copy !req
284. like that fella at the dinner theater
you liked so much.
Copy !req
285. Oh, this is not Camelot,
and you are not Jason Alexander.
Copy !req
286. Uh, you're not wearing that
to dinner, are you?
Copy !req
287. What, you don't like it?
Copy !req
288. I got this pantsuit special for tonight.
Copy !req
289. It's from Frumpy's.
Copy !req
290. Yeah. Don't you still have
that bridesmaid outfit you wore
Copy !req
291. to one of Luanne's mama's weddings?
Copy !req
292. Oh, here.
Copy !req
293. You know, I'd forgotten
just how pretty this is.
Copy !req
294. Hey, Dad!
Copy !req
295. I was going over this stuff
Copy !req
296. you told Mr. Holloway.
Copy !req
297. How could mom get pregnant with me
Copy !req
298. if you spent the '80s
in a Mexican POW Camp?
Copy !req
299. Look, Bobby, uh…
Copy !req
300. Some of that stuff, uh…
Copy !req
301. The details aren't so important.
Copy !req
302. I got to get my facts straight, Dad!
Copy !req
303. There's a Q&A after my speech tomorrow,
Copy !req
304. and these Sunday school kids are tough.
Copy !req
305. I'll help you, son.
Copy !req
306. I promise.
Copy !req
307. When I get home tonight,
we'll sit down and go over anything
Copy !req
308. you might have, uh…
taken out of context.
Copy !req
309. Oh, I am so sorry Mrs. Holloway
didn't feel well enough to join us.
Copy !req
310. I guess something she ate on the plane
didn't agree with her.
Copy !req
311. Hi, Mrs. Holloway.
Copy !req
312. You want some cold frito pie?
Copy !req
313. Ah, she'll be fine.
Copy !req
314. Besides, every man needs to be cut
Copy !req
315. from his ball and chain now and again.
Copy !req
316. Ain't that right, JR?
Copy !req
317. Mr. Hill, your table is ready.
Copy !req
318. The four-top at 39 needs ice tea, hon.
Copy !req
319. 86 the jalapeño cornbread.
Copy !req
320. Howdy, partners.
Copy !req
321. Welcome to the Panhandler.
Copy !req
322. Home of the world's longest salad bar
Copy !req
323. and second longest sneeze guard.
Copy !req
324. Would you cowboys care to take on
our 72-ounce Lonestar Steak?
Copy !req
325. Finish it, and it's free.
Copy !req
326. How much if you can't finish it?
Copy !req
327. Well, sir, like my daddy always said
Copy !req
328. if you have to ask, you can't afford it.
Copy !req
329. That's what I'm having.
Copy !req
330. Lord, no, Mr. Holloway.
Copy !req
331. You're going to fill up on free stuff!
Copy !req
332. Hey, Roy Rogers!
Copy !req
333. Halloween was last year.
Copy !req
334. Mr. Holloway, these are, uh, my neighbors,
Copy !req
335. Dale and Nancy Gribble.
Copy !req
336. Mr. Holloway came all the way from Boston.
Copy !req
337. Yeah, I know the place.
Copy !req
338. That's in Taxachusetts, ain't it?
Copy !req
339. Say hello to Willie Horton
for me when you get home.
Copy !req
340. He's teachin' at your kindergarten.
Copy !req
341. I'm sorry, Mr. Gribble,
Copy !req
342. but a cowboy don't talk politics
at the chow wagon.
Copy !req
343. Happy trails.
Copy !req
344. I haven't got my croutons yet.
Copy !req
345. Mmm.
Copy !req
346. Oh, stick a fork in me. I'm done.
Copy !req
347. No. No, you're not.
Copy !req
348. Give me a quarter, JR.
Copy !req
349. I'm going to go test my grip.
Copy !req
350. Mmm, yeah. I thought so.
Copy !req
351. You've got something
right there on your back, honey.
Copy !req
352. What?
Copy !req
353. Footprints.
Copy !req
354. Break time's over, darling.
Copy !req
355. The kitchen's backed up.
Copy !req
356. Well, I have had
just about all I can swallow.
Copy !req
357. How about you, JR?
Copy !req
358. Peggy, I'm making progress here.
Copy !req
359. I can always tell
Copy !req
360. when a customer's ready for the close.
Copy !req
361. Mr. Thatherton,
your table is ready.
Copy !req
362. Thatherton!
Copy !req
363. And his table is ready! I got to go!
Copy !req
364. JR! My friend, Thatherton,
is taking me to that club
Copy !req
365. where all the waitresses
are former Dallas cowboy cheerleaders.
Copy !req
366. Too late, Thatherton.
Copy !req
367. If anyone's taking Holloway
Copy !req
368. to a gentlemen's club, it's me.
Copy !req
369. Well, I'll see you over there, then.
Copy !req
370. I like that guy.
Copy !req
371. Holloway, don't move a muscle.
Copy !req
372. Get me some protection, too.
Copy !req
373. The man I admire most
is my dad, Hank Hill.
Copy !req
374. Okay! Have fun, boys.
Copy !req
375. Whew! I thought you might be mad.
Copy !req
376. Uh, 'cause I was supposed
to help Bobby, and instead…
Copy !req
377. We're going to…
Copy !req
378. Jugstore cowboys.
Copy !req
379. As part of my work-required
sales excursion…
Copy !req
380. That, as I said
keeps you in pretty dresses like that one.
Copy !req
381. Get out.
Copy !req
382. Uh, Peggy, could you loan me, uh…
50 bucks ought to cover it.
Copy !req
383. And… and can I have ones,
you know, for the g-strings?
Copy !req
384. How versatile is propane?
Copy !req
385. Well, propane will do everything that
natural gas will do and more.
Copy !req
386. Please, ma'am!
I'm trying to carry on a conversation!
Copy !req
387. Yeah, yeah, I see your rear very nice.
Copy !req
388. Okay, there's some people over there
that want to look, too.
Copy !req
389. Now, how about it, Mr. Holloway?
Copy !req
390. Will you say yes to Strickland propane?
Copy !req
391. Buy me a mint julep.
Copy !req
392. Heck, that's not a Texas drink.
Copy !req
393. You can't even keep
your stereotypes straight.
Copy !req
394. Hey, come on, buy me a mint julep.
Copy !req
395. Then I'll talk to you about propane.
Copy !req
396. Mint julep, please.
Copy !req
397. Mint julep?
Copy !req
398. Yeah. It's not for me.
Copy !req
399. I got a yankee client.
Copy !req
400. - Hmm… He make you wear that hat?
- Yep.
Copy !req
401. Oh, honey, I know exactly how you feel.
Copy !req
402. Every night, my boss makes me
put on this humiliating outfit
Copy !req
403. to seduce some drunk out of his money.
Copy !req
404. We're a lot alike.
Copy !req
405. Why do we do it, uh…
Copy !req
406. Chiffon?
Copy !req
407. We do it for the money, cowboy.
Copy !req
408. I never made six figures a year
at the potato hut.
Copy !req
409. - Six figures?
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
410. Soon I'll have enough money to stay home
Copy !req
411. with my granddaughter and her baby.
Copy !req
412. I should be home, too.
Copy !req
413. Helping my boy
with his Sunday school report.
Copy !req
414. Hey… How about a lap dance?
Copy !req
415. - Honey, what are you still doing up?
- I don't get it.
Copy !req
416. How could he have fought
in the Spanish-American war
Copy !req
417. the same year he invented
Copy !req
418. the world's first
pressure-cooking chicken fryer?
Copy !req
419. Oh, Bobby, your father
never fought in any war.
Copy !req
420. Oh, I know. I've given up on dad.
Copy !req
421. The man I most admire now
is Colonel Sanders.
Copy !req
422. Here's your julep, Holloway.
Copy !req
423. Let's talk propane.
Copy !req
424. You call this a mint julep?
Copy !req
425. Where's the vodka?
Copy !req
426. Where's the tomato juice?
Copy !req
427. Maybe I ought to let Thatherton
buy my drinks from now on,
Copy !req
428. I tell you what.
Copy !req
429. Mister, I'll tell you what.
Copy !req
430. I don't want your business, not this way.
Copy !req
431. You want to go with Thatherton, go.
Copy !req
432. But one of these days
Copy !req
433. when your propane mixture's only 89%,
Copy !req
434. and you have a smelly condo development
full of crying babies
Copy !req
435. whose bottles haven't been
properly heated,
Copy !req
436. you give me a call. My name is Hank Hill,
Copy !req
437. and I sell propane and propane accessories
Copy !req
438. with honor and dignity.
Copy !req
439. Aw, them's fighting words, JR.
Copy !req
440. This isn't a John Wayne movie, Holloway.
Copy !req
441. I'm not going to fight you.
Copy !req
442. I'll fight you, Pilgrim.
Copy !req
443. Oh.
Copy !req
444. Yee-haw!
Copy !req
445. I'll throw one right in your face!
Copy !req
446. He doesn't have an oil well.
Copy !req
447. He doesn't own a Cadillac.
Copy !req
448. And he doesn't wear cowboy boots
Copy !req
449. because he's not a cowboy,
Copy !req
450. and on account of they squish his toes.
Copy !req
451. But the man I admire most is a real Texan.
Copy !req
452. He is my daddy, Hank Hill.
Copy !req
453. That's my boy! Yeah!
Copy !req
454. Thank you, thank you.
Copy !req
455. And I want to thank my dad,
Copy !req
456. especially for accepting me
and raising me as his own,
Copy !req
457. even though I was fathered by another man
Copy !req
458. while Mr. Hank Hill
was in a Mexican POW Camp.
Copy !req
459. Thank you.
