1. Yeah!
Copy !req
2. Dale just won by a hair.
Copy !req
3. She is power.
Copy !req
4. Enormous yellow power.
Copy !req
5. I feel like my whole life's
been leading to this day.
Copy !req
6. So, let's see how you guys did.
Copy !req
7. It's the biggest septic tank they had.
Copy !req
8. They sold one just like it
to a bowling alley in Austin.
Copy !req
9. Guy tried to put us in a little home unit.
Copy !req
10. I told him, "You don't know Bill."
Copy !req
11. Yeah, that's what he said.
Copy !req
12. It's a shame we have
to put her in the ground.
Copy !req
13. I should've hit the old tank by now, Bill.
Copy !req
14. Are you sure you surveyed it precisely?
Copy !req
15. Uh, sure.
Copy !req
16. I mean, that...
That's my recollection. Mm-hm.
Copy !req
17. - Oh, there. That's where it is.
Copy !req
18. My mistake. Sorry.
Copy !req
19. Maybe the tank's in the front.
I don't know.
Copy !req
20. You just killed your whole back lawn.
Copy !req
21. A perfectly innocent lawn.
Copy !req
22. Okay, big shot, where's your tank?
Copy !req
23. Side lawn, eight feet out,
Copy !req
24. nine feet, seven inches from the pavement.
Copy !req
25. "Side lawn." Mine's on the side lawn, too.
Copy !req
26. Bill, you can't just mark it
Copy !req
27. where you think it might be.
Copy !req
28. That's not real marking.
Copy !req
29. The flag is in.
Copy !req
30. I am the hoe master.
Copy !req
31. Hear me hoe.
Copy !req
32. Dale, no!
Copy !req
33. Dale, drop that.
Copy !req
34. - Put on the brakes!
Copy !req
35. Oh!
Copy !req
36. Hank?
Copy !req
37. Hank, you were right
about it being complicated,
Copy !req
38. but wrong to make me
want to try it so badly.
Copy !req
39. Where are you going?
Copy !req
40. To buy the "L" pipes for your septic tank.
Copy !req
41. - Road trip.
- You're staying here.
Copy !req
42. - Can I come?
- No!
Copy !req
43. - I'll stay in the truck.
Copy !req
44. Aw, he's right.
Copy !req
45. I never would've stayed in the truck.
Copy !req
46. No, that's a straight pipe.
Copy !req
47. I'm looking for an "L" pipe.
Copy !req
48. Is are straight.
Copy !req
49. Lowercase, maybe, but...
Copy !req
50. Okay, fine.
I'm looking for a capital-L pipe.
Copy !req
51. It bends, at a right angle.
Copy !req
52. Pipes don't bend. All pipes are straight.
Copy !req
53. All pipes can't be straight.
Copy !req
54. If they were, your department store
Copy !req
55. wouldn't be selling those "U" pipes
Copy !req
56. right behind your shoulder.
Copy !req
57. Those aren't pipes.
Copy !req
58. Now...
Copy !req
59. - Wait a minute.
- There has to be more than
Copy !req
60. - one size drill bit.
- You're supposed to be
Copy !req
61. - ... a "plumbing associate..."
- There are different-size holes.
Copy !req
62. - ... and you don't know what a pipe is?
- How do you think that happens?
Copy !req
63. What the...
Copy !req
64. Stupid, dumb...
Copy !req
65. Nice truck.
Copy !req
66. Does the job.
Copy !req
67. Then some.
Copy !req
68. Did you get the recall notice
about the belts?
Copy !req
69. - Back in '94?
- Yep.
Copy !req
70. Got it.
Copy !req
71. So, pick up some kind of "L" pipe?
Copy !req
72. Yep, two-and-a-quarter inch.
Copy !req
73. Septic?
Copy !req
74. Yeah.
Copy !req
75. It's my neighbor's.
We rented a loader backhoe for the job.
Copy !req
76. I hear Mason's got a new design.
Copy !req
77. That's what I rented.
Copy !req
78. Well, then, I won't keep you.
Copy !req
79. So, then, my professor says to me
Copy !req
80. that I have the greatest potential
Copy !req
81. of any junior college student
that he's ever seen.
Copy !req
82. And then he asked me to dinner
to talk about it some more.
Copy !req
83. And drinks!
Copy !req
84. Dinner and drinks?
Copy !req
85. Luanne...
Copy !req
86. Honey, I'm so proud of you.
Copy !req
87. Well, what are you smiling about?
Copy !req
88. Oh, well...
Copy !req
89. - I met a guy.
- Uh-huh?
Copy !req
90. Yeah, at the Mega Lo Mart.
Copy !req
91. We have the same truck,
same year, same color.
Copy !req
92. Smart guy, too.
He knew what an "L" pipe was for.
Copy !req
93. It was nice.
Copy !req
94. Are you going to see him again?
Copy !req
95. Oh, I don't know.
Copy !req
96. You know, it was just a one-time thing
Copy !req
97. with a guy in a parking lot,
Copy !req
98. you know, that's all.
Copy !req
99. Hey, L-pipe, how you doing?
Copy !req
100. You, uh, filling up with super?
Copy !req
101. - Regular.
- Just kidding.
Copy !req
102. Oh.
Copy !req
103. Hey, uh, you got someplace you need to be
Copy !req
104. or maybe you want to grab a beer?
Copy !req
105. Imported?
Copy !req
106. What? No... No, no. Domes...
Copy !req
107. Oh.
Copy !req
108. - "Imported."
Copy !req
109. I got to watch you.
Copy !req
110. You know, Peggy,
we're having the best time.
Copy !req
111. No, we didn't talk about that.
Copy !req
112. No, he didn't mention it.
Copy !req
113. That didn't come up, either.
Copy !req
114. Look, I'll be home later.
Copy !req
115. More.
Copy !req
116. More.
Copy !req
117. More.
Copy !req
118. Is it open?
Copy !req
119. Almost. Try again.
Copy !req
120. Wha... What are you doing?
Copy !req
121. - Get outta there.
Copy !req
122. Did you stop to think
Copy !req
123. that maybe the backhoe
wasn't the best tool
Copy !req
124. for opening up a beer can?
Copy !req
125. Yeah, Hank, I did.
Copy !req
126. That... Oh! Man.
Copy !req
127. Hank did it.
Copy !req
128. What would you guys think
if someone had a beer with us out here?
Copy !req
129. Like someone just wanders over,
like a stranger?
Copy !req
130. No. No, this guy I know.
Copy !req
131. Good guy.
Copy !req
132. It's a big alley.
Copy !req
133. Boy, Hank sure does seem excited.
Copy !req
134. Hal, this is Dale, Bill, and Boomhauer.
Copy !req
135. - Hey, fellas.
- Yo.
Copy !req
136. Say, look, uh, Hank told me
about your situation,
Copy !req
137. and I was thinking you could
just use a metal detector,
Copy !req
138. trace the pipes back to your tank.
Copy !req
139. "A metal detector"?
Copy !req
140. The detector would go off constantly
Copy !req
141. due to the high levels
of extraterrestrial alloy in our soil,
Copy !req
142. which acts as a homing beacon
to the Martian capital of...
Copy !req
143. city.
Copy !req
144. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
145. That's a good joke, Dale.
Copy !req
146. Dale sure can tell a joke.
Copy !req
147. Hey, you know, on the way over,
I passed this huge trackhoe.
Copy !req
148. Fourteen-tonner.
Copy !req
149. What do you say we go check her out?
Copy !req
150. Sorry, but we've got business to transact.
Copy !req
151. I'll go.
Copy !req
152. Hank's going to come back...
Copy !req
153. now.
Copy !req
154. Nope.
Copy !req
155. Now.
Copy !req
156. Nope.
Copy !req
157. Man, this is dang old pathetic, man.
Copy !req
158. We got better things to do
than sitting around on that dang old...
Copy !req
159. Talking about old Jenny kid, man,
getting that sheriff, man.
Copy !req
160. Later.
Copy !req
161. I'm surprised Boomhauer
stayed as long as he did.
Copy !req
162. - All right, then.
- Yep.
Copy !req
163. What are you guys doing?
Copy !req
164. Oh, so you care what we're doing, do you?
Copy !req
165. And he doesn't care.
Copy !req
166. You said you'd be back in a minute.
Copy !req
167. We waited a minute.
Copy !req
168. Then we waited another.
Copy !req
169. And then after about a million minutes...
Copy !req
170. I forgot why I was counting.
Copy !req
171. Well, what's the big deal?
Copy !req
172. You don't get upset
when I come home late from work.
Copy !req
173. One, we get very upset when you work late,
Copy !req
174. and two, you were out with him.
Copy !req
175. Didn't you think Peggy might be worried
Copy !req
176. you being gone so long?
Copy !req
177. I called her.
Copy !req
178. Yeah, well...
Copy !req
179. - We're being phased out.
- Out.
Copy !req
180. - Ha!
- Ow!
Copy !req
181. Do not watch the eyes, Bobby.
Copy !req
182. - The eyes cannot be trusted.
Copy !req
183. "Fool me once, shame on you.
Fool me twi..."
Copy !req
184. - Ow!
Copy !req
185. Hey, Peggy. Hal just took me to this store
Copy !req
186. that only sells fireplace hardware.
Copy !req
187. "Fireplace hardware"?
Copy !req
188. Boomhauer must've been in hog heaven.
Copy !req
189. Uh, yeah, well,
I didn't really invite Boomhauer.
Copy !req
190. Or Bill or Dale, for that matter.
Copy !req
191. Mom!
Copy !req
192. What?
Copy !req
193. Part of the fun with Hal
is doing new stuff with someone new,
Copy !req
194. and if the guys can't handle that,
Copy !req
195. well, that's why I don't tell them.
Copy !req
196. - Hank.
- Hal.
Copy !req
197. So, where's that bait-and-tackle shop
Copy !req
198. you won't shut up about?
Copy !req
199. False alarm, Hank. Went last night.
Copy !req
200. They didn't know a floater from a sinker.
Copy !req
201. Now, you want to see a great new store,
Copy !req
202. make a left at the light,
then out to McMainerberry,
Copy !req
203. sport shop that spins around.
Copy !req
204. - Used to be a restaurant.
Copy !req
205. 10:15, Hank picks up Hal.
Copy !req
206. What?
Copy !req
207. 10:15, Hank picks up Hal.
Copy !req
208. What?
Copy !req
209. I said, "10:15, Hank picks up Hal!"
Copy !req
210. Hank and Hal, I see.
Copy !req
211. So, this guy is trying
Copy !req
212. - to fill a service tank...
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
213. and the drip-lip vent
is in the six o'clock position.
Copy !req
214. What... Instead of 12:00?
Copy !req
215. Exactly.
Copy !req
216. You sure you never worked in propane?
Copy !req
217. Hobby, that's all.
Copy !req
218. I'm losing him.
Copy !req
219. Slowly.
Copy !req
220. Sing it, brother.
Copy !req
221. Hey, wha...
Copy !req
222. What's that? There! There! Over there!
Copy !req
223. Hey.
Copy !req
224. Dale. Bill.
Copy !req
225. Dale. Bill.
Copy !req
226. Boy, I tell ya,
your tank's as big as a school bus.
Copy !req
227. Laid in pretty nicely, all the same.
Copy !req
228. All I see is trespassing.
Copy !req
229. - Hank.
- Hal.
Copy !req
230. That was our project.
Copy !req
231. You should be thanking me.
Copy !req
232. Hal worked that backhoe so fast,
Copy !req
233. we're going to save a couple days' rental.
Copy !req
234. Yeah, and with the money you save,
you can buy your friend Hal
Copy !req
235. a dozen roses.
Copy !req
236. Now you're buying him roses?
Copy !req
237. That's it, Hank. It's us or him.
Copy !req
238. You can't make me choose.
Copy !req
239. Us or him?
Copy !req
240. All right, him.
Copy !req
241. "Him" means Hal, you know.
Copy !req
242. That's the way we phrased the question.
Copy !req
243. You know where I think we went wrong?
Copy !req
244. Making him choose.
Copy !req
245. Where we went wrong
Copy !req
246. is not staying with that backhoe.
Copy !req
247. Whoever controls the backhoe,
controls Hank.
Copy !req
248. You think?
Copy !req
249. Yes, I do think.
Copy !req
250. As long as we're,
for lack of a better word,
Copy !req
251. "incompetent" with the backhoe,
we will be Hankless.
Copy !req
252. I know a place we can practice.
Copy !req
253. The Army's got an old minefield.
Copy !req
254. No one's ever there.
Copy !req
255. Don't be insane, Bill.
Copy !req
256. We'll never get past security.
Copy !req
257. But I know an abandoned pet cemetery
Copy !req
258. with our names on it.
Copy !req
259. Nice hole, Bill.
Copy !req
260. Thank you.
Copy !req
261. May I?
Copy !req
262. Please.
Copy !req
263. Nickel says I can pick
that dandelion over there,
Copy !req
264. bring it back here,
Copy !req
265. blow on it, and make a wish.
Copy !req
266. - Come on!
- Come on, honey pie!
Copy !req
267. Come on, baby.
Copy !req
268. - Come on, sweetie. Come on, baby.
- Come on.
Copy !req
269. Bill, shift your weight. Lean forward.
Copy !req
270. All right.
Copy !req
271. Maybe we could, uh,
hold on to that tree branch,
Copy !req
272. and swing out of the hole
Copy !req
273. like a monkey in the jungle.
Copy !req
274. Help!
Copy !req
275. Someone!
Copy !req
276. Help!
Copy !req
277. Oh, forget it.
Copy !req
278. No one can hear us,
Copy !req
279. or if they can, they don't care.
Copy !req
280. You're lucky. You're in the Army.
Copy !req
281. You've got a tracking device
in your teeth.
Copy !req
282. They'll find you.
Copy !req
283. I'll tell them where you are.
Copy !req
284. You're good people.
Copy !req
285. Hal, it's Hank. Beer?
Copy !req
286. Sure.
Copy !req
287. Uh, well, no, that won't work.
Copy !req
288. My wife will have dinner ready in an hour,
Copy !req
289. and you're over 20 minutes away.
Copy !req
290. Yeah. Next time.
Copy !req
291. So, Bobby,
Copy !req
292. you know, it's been a while
Copy !req
293. since we've had a shoeshine party.
Copy !req
294. I'll get my box!
Copy !req
295. Hank, you don't really want
to watch Bobby shine your shoes.
Copy !req
296. Honey, why don't you go out into the alley
and have a beer with the guys?
Copy !req
297. Uh, all right.
Copy !req
298. Well, what about Bobby?
Copy !req
299. Well, it is spa-Peggy and meatballs night.
Copy !req
300. You do not have to worry about Bobby.
Copy !req
301. Boomhauer.
Copy !req
302. Hello, Hank.
Copy !req
303. Yep.
Copy !req
304. Yep.
Copy !req
305. Used to be a lot more lively around here.
Copy !req
306. Yep.
Copy !req
307. So, uh...
Copy !req
308. got any big dates?
Copy !req
309. Man, leave me alone, man.
Copy !req
310. I don't talk about
them ol' questions, man.
Copy !req
311. Ol' question, question, question, man.
Copy !req
312. Like my dang ol' mother, man.
Copy !req
313. "Boomhauer, when you gonna get married,
Copy !req
314. make me a grandmother?"
Copy !req
315. An exterminator in a pet cemetery.
Copy !req
316. I have many enemies here.
Copy !req
317. Took me about 17 minutes to get here.
Copy !req
318. Huh.
Copy !req
319. Took me 18.
Copy !req
320. Maybe tomorrow we can meet, uh...
Copy !req
321. I don't know, uh, that Exxon over there.
Copy !req
322. That ought to even things out.
Copy !req
323. Uh, man, I don't know.
Copy !req
324. I only get a 45-minute lunch hour.
Copy !req
325. Let's try getting together tonight.
Copy !req
326. Eh, I don't know.
Copy !req
327. By the time I get home
from Strickland Propane
Copy !req
328. and come down from the day...
Copy !req
329. Let's shoot for next Saturday.
Copy !req
330. Yeah, yeah.
Copy !req
331. Oh!
Copy !req
332. No. Saturday's Bobby's football game,
Copy !req
333. and he really likes me
to watch it with him.
Copy !req
334. Huh.
Copy !req
335. Hmm.
Copy !req
336. Huh.
Copy !req
337. Guess this is it, then.
Copy !req
338. Yeah.
Copy !req
339. Well...
Copy !req
340. you take care of that truck of yours.
Copy !req
341. I'm going to miss that crazy bastard.
Copy !req
342. We invested all that time
and effort, maybe,
Copy !req
343. in Hank,
Copy !req
344. and he has forsaken us.
Copy !req
345. Well, everything forsakes me.
Copy !req
346. I mean, sometimes I...
I think I should just...
Copy !req
347. stop putting myself out there.
Copy !req
348. We don't need Hank.
Copy !req
349. We are two beta males
at the top of our game!
Copy !req
350. And you didn't mention that we're lovable
Copy !req
351. and that I've got a lot of love to give.
Copy !req
352. I know!
Copy !req
353. How's the market been treating you, sir?
Copy !req
354. - I took a pretty big hit today.
Copy !req
355. I got worries.
Copy !req
356. Where's my backhoe, Hank?
Copy !req
357. Hey. How are you?
You want to come in, have a beer?
Copy !req
358. I want my backhoe.
Copy !req
359. It wasn't returned
by Dale Gribble or Bill Dauterive?
Copy !req
360. No.
Copy !req
361. I saw them drive off
on joyride with backhoe.
Copy !req
362. You mean, they missing?
Copy !req
363. Minh! Yeah, hey, Minh.
Copy !req
364. Two down, two to go!
Copy !req
365. Huh?
Copy !req
366. There's got to be something to eat
in that box.
Copy !req
367. Okay, you got... Oh!
Copy !req
368. What?
Copy !req
369. Looks like a fun project.
Copy !req
370. It is none of your business.
Copy !req
371. We were just on our lunch break,
Copy !req
372. which is over,
Copy !req
373. so if you do not mind,
Copy !req
374. we will be getting back to work.
Copy !req
375. - Yeah, that... That's good.
Copy !req
376. Did you see it move?
Copy !req
377. All right.
Well, I'll get out of your hair.
Copy !req
378. But before I go, I am curious.
Copy !req
379. What's the best way
of driving out of that hole?
Copy !req
380. Hmm...
Copy !req
381. I mean, you guys have more experience
Copy !req
382. with this machine than me.
Copy !req
383. What do you think? Would it be better
to widen the hole beyond the tree
Copy !req
384. then extend the boom, plant the bucket,
Copy !req
385. let out the outriggers,
Copy !req
386. then release and replant the bucket...
Copy !req
387. Wait, wait, we...
Copy !req
388. We'll humor your little experiment,
Copy !req
389. but you'll have to slow down.
Copy !req
390. On your left there,
pull the extender as far back...
Copy !req
391. Left, is it?
Copy !req
392. Yeah, the lever closest to me.
Copy !req
393. Take that in your hand.
Copy !req
394. Good.
Copy !req
395. Little more. Little more.
Copy !req
396. Keep going. Good!
Copy !req
397. My legs.
Copy !req
398. Well, you haven't moved in about 50 hours.
Copy !req
399. Yeah. Thanks, but no thanks, Hal's friend.
Copy !req
400. Where is Hal?
Copy !req
401. Huh, Hank?
Copy !req
402. - Hal's gone.
- Yep.
Copy !req
403. All right, let's go.
Copy !req
404. - You think you can ignore me
Copy !req
405. for two days and then act
like nothing happened?
Copy !req
406. All right, look,
Copy !req
407. you guys are something Hal will never be.
Copy !req
408. My neighbors.
Copy !req
409. - Apology accepted.
Copy !req
