1. How's it going, Joe Jack?
Copy !req
2. I lost my bathroom
key again, honey.
Copy !req
3. (car horn playing
"Yellow Rose of Texas")
Copy !req
4. Mr. Strickland?
Copy !req
5. Yeah. Hank, I just lost
a pile of money
Copy !req
6. and a pair of Eye-talian loafers
Copy !req
7. to that sleaze bag
Lane Pratley.
Copy !req
8. Oh, and you can cancel
Copy !req
9. the morning run
to Strickland North.
Copy !req
10. I lost that, too.
Copy !req
11. I got to take my mind
off my boo-hoos.
Copy !req
12. Donna! Find me that website
Copy !req
13. where the elephant does his
business on the man's head.
Copy !req
14. Sir, I... I don't like
to ask personal questions,
Copy !req
15. but... are you okay?
Copy !req
16. My wife threw me out.
Copy !req
17. What?
Copy !req
18. Yeah.
Copy !req
19. I had Donna over at the house.
Copy !req
20. The old crow found us
in flagrante on the credenza.
Copy !req
21. It's all over.
Copy !req
22. She said she could handle
my drinking binges
Copy !req
23. and my gambling
Copy !req
24. and even turn a blind eye
to my extramarital escapades
Copy !req
25. but not when they happen
all at once
Copy !req
26. and on her birthday.
Copy !req
27. Ah! I don't know
what to do anymore, Hank.
Copy !req
28. (sobbing)
Copy !req
29. Uh...
Copy !req
30. There, there, sir.
Copy !req
31. (sobbing)
Copy !req
32. Today we start cross-country.
Copy !req
33. Every day
for the next two weeks,
Copy !req
34. you kids are going
to be running.
Copy !req
35. For those of you
a little overweight
Copy !req
36. or not athletic,
this will be difficult,
Copy !req
37. but so will life. Now go.
Copy !req
38. Uh, Coach.
Copy !req
39. If you don't mind,
Copy !req
40. I preferto play
to my strengths.
Copy !req
41. Why don't I just hang back
and hold the clipboard?
Copy !req
42. Move it, Hill.
Copy !req
43. (groans)
Copy !req
44. (panting)
Copy !req
45. Hey, Maggie,
if we stay together,
Copy !req
46. neither one of us
will be last.
Copy !req
47. I let you hide behind
me in dodge ball.
Copy !req
48. I'm through with you.
Copy !req
49. My running days are over.
Copy !req
50. I'm home.
Copy !req
51. Table for one near
the air conditioner.
Copy !req
52. Sorry, kid, this is high tea.
Copy !req
53. We require a jacket and tie
Copy !req
54. and long pants and no sneakers.
Copy !req
55. Doesn't passion
count for anything?
Copy !req
56. LUANNE: My Bible study teacher
is going on vacation
Copy !req
57. and he won't let me
be the substitute teacher
Copy !req
58. while he's gone.
Copy !req
59. I think he's just jealous
Copy !req
60. of my close
relationship with Jesus.
Copy !req
61. Oh, Luanne, give
him more credit.
Copy !req
62. Maybe he genuinely thinks
you won't be good at it.
Copy !req
63. Nobody has any faith in me.
Copy !req
64. I'm telling Jesus
that you weren't any help.
Copy !req
65. You are not
going to believe
Copy !req
66. what's happened at work.
Copy !req
67. Buck gambled away
Strickland North.
Copy !req
68. It's gone. Gone.
Copy !req
69. And you are surprised
by this behavior?
Copy !req
70. Hank, the man is
a lying, cheating,
Copy !req
71. drunken, gambling,
Copy !req
72. philandering adulterer.
Copy !req
73. I know he has his demons,
Copy !req
74. but he's also the guy
who took me under his wing
Copy !req
75. and brought me
into the world of propane
Copy !req
76. and propane accessories.
Copy !req
77. There's a money-back
guarantee on those.
Copy !req
78. It's not the store's
policy... it's just mine.
Copy !req
79. You do a damn fine job of
selling dungarees there,
Copy !req
80. uh... Hank,
Copy !req
81. but let me tell you
what I'm selling.
Copy !req
82. Propane.
Copy !req
83. Huh.
Copy !req
84. Propane.
Copy !req
85. He was a window
into the exciting world
Copy !req
86. of clean-burning heat.
Copy !req
87. Yeah. You keep these
tanks shiny and clean
Copy !req
88. they reflect
more sunlight
Copy !req
89. and stay cooler.
Copy !req
90. That means less
gas escapes
Copy !req
91. through this
here valve, see?
Copy !req
92. (sighs)
Copy !req
93. I can't turn my back on him.
Copy !req
94. Without buck, I'd
be selling pants.
Copy !req
95. I'd never tell him this,
Copy !req
96. but... I think
of him as a... a mentor.
Copy !req
97. Really? I thought I
was your mentor.
Copy !req
98. I'm worried, fellows.
Copy !req
99. Buck's never
been this bad
Copy !req
100. and this time, I'm afraid
Copy !req
101. he's going to take
the business down with him.
Copy !req
102. You know what a
friend would do?
Copy !req
103. He'd get me to burn down
Copy !req
104. said other friend's
failing business
Copy !req
105. for the insurance money.
Copy !req
106. Just say
the word
Copy !req
107. or don't.
Copy !req
108. I'll get the signal.
Copy !req
109. Just nod your head.
Copy !req
110. Or don't.
Copy !req
111. Shut up, Dale.
Copy !req
112. So, we're on.
Copy !req
113. (sighs)
Copy !req
114. Hmm.
Copy !req
115. Buck's back on the floor.
Copy !req
116. You got to buy
this grill.
Copy !req
117. I need the money.
Copy !req
118. There's a horse
that can make all this right.
Copy !req
119. You got cash?
Copy !req
120. Huh? Huh?
Copy !req
121. (vomiting)
Copy !req
122. Uh... sir, why don't
I take you home?
Copy !req
123. Good idea.
Copy !req
124. No, wait a second.
Copy !req
125. (vomiting)
Copy !req
126. (coughing)
Copy !req
127. Okay.
Copy !req
128. (sobbing)
Copy !req
129. I'm so got dang lonely.
Copy !req
130. Hey, you know,
before I drop you off,
Copy !req
131. there's someone I'd like
to introduce you to.
Copy !req
132. I think you two
might hit it off.
Copy !req
133. Can we go yet?
Copy !req
134. No, not until
you hear me out.
Copy !req
135. Sir, the flame in
you has grown dim,
Copy !req
136. but if you'll just
take your hands off the valve,
Copy !req
137. and let Him in, the Lord
will fill you with His gas.
Copy !req
138. So I'll just
Copy !req
139. leave you two
by yourselves here.
Copy !req
140. You probably have a lot
of catching up to do.
Copy !req
141. PEGGY:
You cannot fix
Copy !req
142. Buck Strickland.
Copy !req
143. He is drowning in a sea
of his own addictions
Copy !req
144. and if there
is one thing
Copy !req
145. that I learned
at YWCA camp,
Copy !req
146. you cannot save
a drowning man.
Copy !req
147. (car horn playing
"Yellow Rose of Texas")
Copy !req
148. I used to like
that song.
Copy !req
149. Now it scares me.
Copy !req
150. Greetings,
fellow Christians.
Copy !req
151. Ah, there's the shepherd
Copy !req
152. that brought this lost
sheep back into the fold.
Copy !req
153. I did?
Copy !req
154. Huh. So it worked.
Copy !req
155. Bless you, Hank.
Copy !req
156. Well, in fairness,
I didn't really do anything.
Copy !req
157. I just alley-ooped you
to the Lord.
Copy !req
158. Well, you brought me to church
Copy !req
159. where I met an angel
who showed me the light.
Copy !req
160. This woman is
gonna keep me
Copy !req
161. on the straight
and narrow path
Copy !req
162. to the promised land.
Copy !req
163. Praise be!
Copy !req
164. Nothing but net, Lord.
Copy !req
165. I understand why God
loves Buck... He has to...
Copy !req
166. but what kind of pathetic
doormat of a woman
Copy !req
167. would fall for him?
Copy !req
168. Come on, Peggy.
Copy !req
169. I bet she's just
some nice old lady
Copy !req
170. who used to be
a nurse or something.
Copy !req
171. You know how those
churchy types are.
Copy !req
172. They like a fixer-upper.
Copy !req
173. Hey, Uncle Hank,
Aunt Peggy!
Copy !req
174. Look who I saved!
Copy !req
175. Hallelujah.
Copy !req
176. Good Lord.
Copy !req
177. What the hell is going on here?
Copy !req
178. A private Bible
study class.
Copy !req
179. Praise the Lord!
Copy !req
180. Luanne,
Platter family conference
Copy !req
181. on the patio, ahora.
Copy !req
182. Is he hitting on you?
Copy !req
183. Is he coming on to you?
Copy !req
184. Has he put
his hands on you?
Copy !req
185. What has he done to you?
Copy !req
186. Nothing, Aunt Peggy.
Copy !req
187. I found him at the church
and he was so sad and lost.
Copy !req
188. I told him about the word of God
Copy !req
189. and he volunteered
me to be his private Bible tutor.
Copy !req
190. Me! A Bible tutor.
Copy !req
191. Luanne,
you're on the naive side.
Copy !req
192. But even you cannot be
buying this horse manure.
Copy !req
193. Buck is my student.
Copy !req
194. I am his teacher.
Copy !req
195. And the Lord is our principal.
Copy !req
196. And until He rings the bell,
class will not be dismissed.
Copy !req
197. Uh... are you trying
to date my niece, sir?
Copy !req
198. Now, Ol' Top, I don't blame you
for thinking the worst of me,
Copy !req
199. but I'm a changed man.
Copy !req
200. LUANNE:
Now, if you'll
excuse us,
Copy !req
201. we have to get
back to class.
Copy !req
202. You know, Luanne,
it's awful hot out here.
Copy !req
203. Maybe next week we could
study in the pool.
Copy !req
204. Bible class in the pool?
Copy !req
205. Like a baptism.
Copy !req
206. (chuckles):
Yeah, I'll bring my swimsuit.
Copy !req
207. Are these English cucumbers
in the cucumber sandwiches?
Copy !req
208. The regular ones
come back on me.
Copy !req
209. I don't know.
Copy !req
210. Well, would you find out
for me, please?
Copy !req
211. It's so nice to see
such a refined young man.
Copy !req
212. My grandson steals from me.
Copy !req
213. Would you care to join us?
Copy !req
214. That depends: Would you care
to share your lemon curd?
Copy !req
215. Oh, hmm.
Copy !req
216. (chuckles)
Copy !req
217. Hank, you've been very unclear
on this whole thing.
Copy !req
218. Do you or do you not want me
to burn down your workplace?
Copy !req
219. Dang it, Dale,
Copy !req
220. I don't want you going
anywhere near Strickland.
Copy !req
221. Things have been great
since Buck found religion.
Copy !req
222. Again, your words say "no,"
Copy !req
223. but your body language says
"torch that sucker."
Copy !req
224. Un-be-freakin-lievable.
Copy !req
225. Peggy, will you knock it off?
Copy !req
226. Why can't you just accept
the man's been saved?
Copy !req
227. It doesn't
cost you anything.
Copy !req
228. They are in the pool, Hank.
Copy !req
229. Luanne is in her bikini.
Copy !req
230. Her hair is wet. Sopping wet.
Copy !req
231. Well, she's supposed to be
giving him a Bible lesson.
Copy !req
232. I'm going to make sure
it stays a Bible lesson.
Copy !req
233. So, that's why it's better
Copy !req
234. to be a little bird
sitting in heaven
Copy !req
235. than to be the biggest,
toughest grizzly bear in hell.
Copy !req
236. Do you know what I mean?
Copy !req
237. Yes?
Copy !req
238. Yay!
Copy !req
239. Fellowship hug!
Copy !req
240. Whoo!
Copy !req
241. Amen to that.
Copy !req
242. Dude, what are you
doing with her?
Copy !req
243. This is a Bible
study class, Joseph.
Copy !req
244. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
245. Um... I like the Bible.
A bunch.
Copy !req
246. Well, come on in.
Copy !req
247. I thought this was a
private Bible tutorial.
Copy !req
248. There's enough God
to go around.
Copy !req
249. Need another student?
Copy !req
250. Uncle Hank,
you're joining the class?
Copy !req
251. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
252. Bible-ing up, dude.
Copy !req
253. Joseph, go home.
Copy !req
254. Nuh-uh, hold on.
Copy !req
255. This is my
Bible study class.
Copy !req
256. And all of God's creatures
are welcome.
Copy !req
257. Even Joseph.
Copy !req
258. Oh, Bobby, you are a delight.
Copy !req
259. Pearl, we should fix him up
with your niece.
Copy !req
260. How old is she?
Copy !req
261. 37.
Copy !req
262. Okay, the thing
about camels
Copy !req
263. going through the
eye of a needle...
Copy !req
264. it's not good
for the camels,
Copy !req
265. so you can understand
why it's not good to be rich.
Copy !req
266. Totally.
Copy !req
267. I'm as good as broke.
Copy !req
268. I'm losing everything
in the divorce.
Copy !req
269. Hey, is this the Bible
study in the pool class?
Copy !req
270. HANK:
Principal Moss?
Copy !req
271. BUCK:
Pratley!
Copy !req
272. Aw, rooster poop!
Copy !req
273. You got my flyer.
Copy !req
274. We sure did, Teach.
Copy !req
275. And that picture
does not do you justice.
Copy !req
276. Oh, dang,
I forgot my Bible.
Copy !req
277. I'Il just kind of look off
yours here, Miss Luanne.
Copy !req
278. Okay, but next time,
you'd better remember.
Copy !req
279. Remember-iness
is next to holiness.
Copy !req
280. Whoa, whoa, whoa,
hold on here.
Copy !req
281. We don't want to distract
the teacher.
Copy !req
282. Principal Moss,
you can look on with me.
Copy !req
283. Okay, then.
Copy !req
284. Now, Luanne, weren't
you and Buck discussing
Copy !req
285. the importance
of the commandments
Copy !req
286. and why you shouldn't
covet things and such?
Copy !req
287. Yeah, as a matter
of fact, Luanne...
Copy !req
288. Hey, can I get in on this?
Copy !req
289. Well, who the heck
are you?
Copy !req
290. Octavio, dude.
Copy !req
291. (yells)
Copy !req
292. We're trying to talk about
the Bible here!
Copy !req
293. Oh, sure, Ese.
I'm way into it.
Copy !req
294. Hey, look what
I got... Jesus.
Copy !req
295. Oh, that's beautiful.
Copy !req
296. Hey, that's Rob Zombie.
Copy !req
297. Shut up, kid.
Copy !req
298. He got my Bible wet.
Copy !req
299. Okay, Joseph, Octavio,
no more fellowship hugs.
Copy !req
300. Not until you show me
you're here to learn the Bible,
Copy !req
301. not get it wet.
Copy !req
302. Pearl, I talked to my doctor
about you yesterday,
Copy !req
303. and he agrees with me...
Copy !req
304. you've got to cut down
on the salt.
Copy !req
305. He's coming in.
Copy !req
306. Just act natural
and pass me the scones.
Copy !req
307. I thought
I saw someone I know.
Copy !req
308. Mind if I take a look around?
Copy !req
309. Sorry, sir,
we have a dress code...
Copy !req
310. ties for men,
no tube tops for the ladies.
Copy !req
311. Ah... Uh-huh.
Copy !req
312. So, Paul was named Saul
Copy !req
313. until he saw Jesus
on the road to Damascus
Copy !req
314. and changed his ways.
Copy !req
315. That's right!
Fellowship hug!
Copy !req
316. Oh, boy.
Copy !req
317. So, when the Bible says
Copy !req
318. "He is without sin should
cast the first stone"
Copy !req
319. what it's saying is...
Copy !req
320. It's saying...
What it's saying is,
Copy !req
321. is we should look
at our own sins.
Copy !req
322. Try to be better people.
Copy !req
323. Yes. But if you...
Copy !req
324. Sure, but you can't be
a better person
Copy !req
325. just by acting
all righteous and stuff.
Copy !req
326. It says right here in
the Book of Acts that...
Copy !req
327. wait, uh, the red letters
are the Jesus words, right?
Copy !req
328. Uh, Luanne,
if Buck could just...
Copy !req
329. I've got a testimony!
Copy !req
330. Now you all may have read
the story of the prodigal son,
Copy !req
331. but fellow Christians,
I have lived it.
Copy !req
332. I have strayed far and long
from the path of the righteous.
Copy !req
333. I have sinned,
I have lied,
Copy !req
334. I have fornicated on
stolen antique furniture.
Copy !req
335. But I will
tell you this...
Copy !req
336. the good Lord sets
the most beautiful table
Copy !req
337. for the son who's eaten
from the most dumpsters.
Copy !req
338. Huh.
Copy !req
339. Wow.
Copy !req
340. You know, I have to admit,
Buck is a changed man.
Copy !req
341. Luanne must be one heck
of a Bible teacher.
Copy !req
342. Yep, I guess she really
got through to him.
Copy !req
343. And all that time
in the water's
Copy !req
344. been good for his phlebitis.
Copy !req
345. (doorbell rings)
Copy !req
346. Sorry to interrupt,
Copy !req
347. but I had something very
important to tell you two.
Copy !req
348. I'm an old-fashioned man,
Copy !req
349. and as Luanne's nearest
unincarcerated kin,
Copy !req
350. I wanted you to be
the first to know...
Copy !req
351. I'm going to ask
Luanne to marry me.
Copy !req
352. Wow, Buck and Luanne.
Copy !req
353. Wow.
Copy !req
354. Well... I guess
it was inevitable.
Copy !req
355. Women from broken homes
Copy !req
356. always look for
a father figure.
Copy !req
357. I guess technically, Buck is
more of a grand father figure,
Copy !req
358. but I guess that might
even be healthier.
Copy !req
359. Well, there, I've made it
palatable for myself.
Copy !req
360. And Luanne's been a pretty good
influence on Buck.
Copy !req
361. Did you see him?
Copy !req
362. He was clean-cut, polite...
Copy !req
363. he wasn't even sweating vodka.
Copy !req
364. And when Buck's in good shape,
so is Strickland Propane.
Copy !req
365. Hank, do you realize
if they marry,
Copy !req
366. Buck will be our nephew.
Copy !req
367. Huh.
Copy !req
368. You know, Buck will
probably lose his house
Copy !req
369. in the divorce, and move in
with Luanne.
Copy !req
370. He and I could drive
to work together.
Copy !req
371. Luanne, you've changed
this ornery old jackass
Copy !req
372. into a noble pack mule.
Copy !req
373. But this mule
don't want to walk
Copy !req
374. life's treacherous
mountain path alone.
Copy !req
375. Luanne Platter, will you
have me as your husband?
Copy !req
376. (gasps)
Oh, my God!
Copy !req
377. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
378. Of course not.
Copy !req
379. Jibbit?
Copy !req
380. Mr. Strickland,
Copy !req
381. that's so crazy.
Copy !req
382. You're very nice,
Copy !req
383. but you're totally old.
Copy !req
384. I like young guys
Copy !req
385. who love Jesus,
but have fitness...
Copy !req
386. and hair.
Copy !req
387. No, no, you see...
Copy !req
388. I... I got...
Copy !req
389. (stammering)
Copy !req
390. She... spurned me!
Copy !req
391. I've been spurned!
Copy !req
392. She what?
Copy !req
393. (sobbing):
She toyed with my affections.
Copy !req
394. She was only doing it
to get me to the Lord.
Copy !req
395. How sick is that?
Copy !req
396. Sir, wait.
Copy !req
397. Luanne, what happened?
Copy !req
398. Buck just wanted to marry me
and I said no.
Copy !req
399. (sighs)
Copy !req
400. Well, he looked
pretty upset.
Copy !req
401. And when Buck's upset,
Copy !req
402. he dives straight
into his addictions.
Copy !req
403. Oh, that's okay.
Copy !req
404. He's totally addicted
to Jesus now.
Copy !req
405. Earl Grey.
Copy !req
406. Come on, give me a tough one.
Copy !req
407. (gasps)
Copy !req
408. Bobby Hill.
Copy !req
409. You just ate your last...
Copy !req
410. ...thingie.
Copy !req
411. Muffin?
Copy !req
412. Pastry?
Copy !req
413. What... whatever.
Copy !req
414. Move it!
Copy !req
415. Congratulations, Mr. Fybel.
Copy !req
416. I'll be out there tomorrow
Copy !req
417. to personally hook up
your new tanks.
Copy !req
418. (car horn playing
"Yellow Rose of Texas")
Copy !req
419. BUCK:
Yee-ha!
Copy !req
420. (drunkenly): Well, what
are you all looking at,
Copy !req
421. you heathens?
Copy !req
422. No, sir.
Copy !req
423. Not on the premises,
Copy !req
424. and certainly not during
business hours.
Copy !req
425. Fine, then.
Copy !req
426. Hank, let's you and me go bet
on the ponies.
Copy !req
427. I'll just get
some cash from the safe.
Copy !req
428. Don't bother, sir.
Copy !req
429. I changed the combination.
Copy !req
430. But it's always been
my birthday.
Copy !req
431. Well, now it's my birthday.
Copy !req
432. You've been here 20 years.
Copy !req
433. I... I know your birthday.
I know it.
Copy !req
434. It's... Sept... Sepover...
Copy !req
435. Septober... 22, 29...
Copy !req
436. (sighs)
Copy !req
437. (snoring)
Copy !req
438. (sighs)
Copy !req
439. Hank, I'm sorry.
Copy !req
440. Yeah, I know.
Copy !req
441. Don't we have a boy
who comes and does this?
Copy !req
442. Yeah, but the better
these tanks are polished,
Copy !req
443. the more sunlight they reflect,
the cooler they stay
Copy !req
444. and the less propane escapes
through that valve.
Copy !req
445. That valve... yeah.
Copy !req
446. I taught you that.
Copy !req
447. You know, Buck, maybe Luanne
and her Bible class in the pool
Copy !req
448. was His way of getting
your attention.
Copy !req
449. So you could see what's
really important.
Copy !req
450. Yeah, propane's been good to me.
Copy !req
451. Well, Lady Propane's
been good to all of us, sir.
Copy !req
452. (chuckles)
Copy !req
453. Lady Propane.
Copy !req
454. That's a perfect swirl, sir.
Copy !req
455. You know, maybe
I could get rid
Copy !req
456. of all my old
addictions
Copy !req
457. and get myself hooked
solely on propane.
Copy !req
458. And maybe just one other thing.
Copy !req
459. You know, keep things spicy.
Copy !req
460. Boy, these
5,000 gallon heifers
Copy !req
461. look pretty at
sunset, don't they?
Copy !req
462. They sure do, sir.
Copy !req
463. Oh, and those are
1,000 gallon tanks.
Copy !req
464. And it's sunrise.
Copy !req
465. Fellowship hug!
Copy !req
466. Oh boy!
