1. Okay, settle down, boosters.
Copy !req
2. Boys, we could go all the way this year.
Copy !req
3. Texas High School Coaches Poll
Copy !req
4. has voted us preseason number one.
Copy !req
5. - Hey, all right!
- That's amazing, huh?
Copy !req
6. Yep, this is the year, I'll tell you what,
Copy !req
7. but as boosters, we've gotta do our part.
Copy !req
8. I've got it!
Copy !req
9. A pancake sale,
Copy !req
10. where we get our wives
to serve pancakes topless.
Copy !req
11. Not yours, Hank.
Copy !req
12. Well, here's something that'll help.
Copy !req
13. Finish what you're chewing, boys.
Copy !req
14. I got big news.
Copy !req
15. Jimmy Willis is available.
Copy !req
16. The groundskeeper at SMU?
Copy !req
17. A skilled groundskeeper
Copy !req
18. can give us a home field advantage.
Copy !req
19. We're going to state!
Copy !req
20. - Whoa!
- Yeah, we're going to state!
Copy !req
21. - Going to state!
- State! State! State!
Copy !req
22. Wait just a second.
Copy !req
23. What about Smitty?
Copy !req
24. He's been our groundskeeper
as long as I can remember.
Copy !req
25. Oh, Hank, Smitty's getting up there
in years.
Copy !req
26. Heck, a lot of folks think
Copy !req
27. he's just coasting
till he gets his pension.
Copy !req
28. Yeah. You seen the horns
on the end zone Longhorn lately?
Copy !req
29. They ain't as pointy as they used to be.
Copy !req
30. Thing looks like a got-danged cow!
Copy !req
31. It does have a cow-like quality.
Copy !req
32. A thought.
Copy !req
33. Just supposing we fire this Smitty.
Copy !req
34. What would happen to his pension money?
Copy !req
35. Could it be diverted into,
say, a new Nautilus machine?
Copy !req
36. And if not, why not?
Copy !req
37. - Hmm…
- Yeah.
Copy !req
38. Now hold on.
Copy !req
39. You can't cheat Smitty out of his pension.
Copy !req
40. It's not right.
Copy !req
41. He's been taking good care
of that field for 28 years.
Copy !req
42. He lost two wives to that grass,
Copy !req
43. and now you wanna take it away from him?
Copy !req
44. Smitty can do the job.
Copy !req
45. I guarantee it.
Copy !req
46. Hank says championship's a lock!
Copy !req
47. State! State! State! State!
Copy !req
48. Looking for someone, bud?
Copy !req
49. Well, I was looking for you, Smitty.
Copy !req
50. I'm Hank Hill. I used to play here.
Copy !req
51. Oh, sure, Hank Hill.
Copy !req
52. You hold Arlen High's single-season
rushing record, don't ya?
Copy !req
53. Yep. I ran nearly every foot of it
on your turf.
Copy !req
54. Sure. Sure.
Copy !req
55. You can't run on dirt, you know?
Copy !req
56. True enough.
Copy !req
57. But you can sleep on it.
Copy !req
58. Huh. Uh…
Copy !req
59. You do know what
you're doing, Smitty, right?
Copy !req
60. You bet.
Copy !req
61. That's exactly what
I was hoping to hear, sir.
Copy !req
62. It's gonna be a heck of a season.
Copy !req
63. Up next.
Copy !req
64. History's Mysteries
with "Nazi Hidden Gold,"
Copy !req
65. followed by Building the Nazi War Machine,
Copy !req
66. and Nazis of the Desert, Nazis of the Sea.
Copy !req
67. Wow, the Nazis did a lot.
Copy !req
68. Come on, Kahn.
Ain't we still your boys?
Copy !req
69. Get on out here
Copy !req
70. and rally with us.
Copy !req
71. I thought Kahn
Copy !req
72. got rid of those damn rednecks.
Copy !req
73. Show him your high beams, Lucky.
Copy !req
74. Whoo!
Copy !req
75. Those rednecks!
Copy !req
76. Yeah!
Copy !req
77. That redneck thing
was really more of a phase!
Copy !req
78. Please go away now!
Copy !req
79. You had to send him a Christmas card.
Copy !req
80. Thanks for leaving!
Copy !req
81. We ain't going nowhere
till you check out Lucky's new truck.
Copy !req
82. Yeah, Kahn.
Copy !req
83. Got me new rims and everything
out of my settlement money.
Copy !req
84. We gon' go muddin', then skiddin'.
Copy !req
85. Stupid rednecks!
Copy !req
86. We can't hear ourselves watch TV.
Copy !req
87. Aw, look at you, baby girl.
Copy !req
88. You like my rims.
Copy !req
89. They're very nice rims. I…
Copy !req
90. Yes.
Copy !req
91. You think they look good standing still,
Copy !req
92. wait till you see 'em doing 90.
Copy !req
93. There are some boys race trucks
up at the Devil's Bowl,
Copy !req
94. and I'm gonna take it to 'em.
Copy !req
95. You race trucks?
Copy !req
96. Isn't that dangerous?
Copy !req
97. Can be, but being a self-made man,
Copy !req
98. I don't need to work no more.
Copy !req
99. I got to do something with my time.
Copy !req
100. You're a self-made man?
Copy !req
101. Yep. Slipped on pee-pee at the Costco.
Copy !req
102. Got me a $53,000 settlement.
Copy !req
103. I like the way your Skoal
can fits in your pocket.
Copy !req
104. And your teeth look like fresh corn.
Copy !req
105. Damn. That Lucky is chick stink bait.
Copy !req
106. Walk away from the redneck.
Copy !req
107. Walk away from the redneck.
Copy !req
108. Oh, no.
Copy !req
109. Friday night, the big test.
Copy !req
110. Season opener against Rushford.
Copy !req
111. Crush Rushford!
Copy !req
112. That's the spirit, Bobby.
Copy !req
113. I can't take sole credit.
Copy !req
114. They taught it to us all week at school.
Copy !req
115. Attention!
Copy !req
116. Will the pretty lady in the house
Copy !req
117. please come outside and make my day?
Copy !req
118. That's Lucky!
Copy !req
119. He's taking me
to watch him race his truck!
Copy !req
120. I get to wave a flag and wear tiny pants!
Copy !req
121. Uh-uh. I'm sorry, Luanne,
Copy !req
122. but I cannot allow you to go out there.
Copy !req
123. Why not? Is my makeup smeary?
Copy !req
124. No. Luanne, you have a weakness
Copy !req
125. for a certain type of man.
Copy !req
126. You are drawn magnetically
back to the trailer,
Copy !req
127. back to the sticky ooze you escaped from.
Copy !req
128. You have come too far to give in now.
Copy !req
129. You cannot date this man!
Copy !req
130. I'll get it.
Copy !req
131. Name's Lucky.
Copy !req
132. Looking for Luanne.
Copy !req
133. Hey, beautiful.
Copy !req
134. Hi.
Copy !req
135. Wanna know why they call me Lucky?
Copy !req
136. No.
Copy !req
137. We'll see you later.
Copy !req
138. Don't wait up.
Copy !req
139. Oh, god.
Copy !req
140. Crush Rushford.
Copy !req
141. Thank you, Bobby.
Copy !req
142. You're a good son.
Copy !req
143. Let the championship season begin!
Copy !req
144. Here we go.
Copy !req
145. - What the…
- Good lord!
Copy !req
146. What the heck happened to the field?
Copy !req
147. Hank, what did your boy Smitty
do to the field?
Copy !req
148. Oh, no. Smitty.
Copy !req
149. On inspection,
this field is unfit for play.
Copy !req
150. According to the athletic charter,
Copy !req
151. the home team is responsible
for the maintenance of the field,
Copy !req
152. therefore Arlen forfeits the game.
Copy !req
153. Boo!
Copy !req
154. Peggy, get the boy
and let's head for the truck
Copy !req
155. before everyone sees us.
Copy !req
156. There he is!
Copy !req
157. No root system at all.
Copy !req
158. Oh, hi, Hank.
Copy !req
159. Sir, with all due respect, what happened?
Copy !req
160. Yeah, I know.
Copy !req
161. It's a lot to do.
Copy !req
162. You got the hash marks
Copy !req
163. and the center field marks.
Copy !req
164. And what is it, the thing with the tube?
Copy !req
165. My kid's in rehab again.
Copy !req
166. Tommy. You met him.
Copy !req
167. Yeah. Uh, look, Smitty,
this is the kind of thing
Copy !req
168. that could cost us our whole season.
Copy !req
169. Not to mention costing a guy his job,
Copy !req
170. his pension…
Copy !req
171. You bet.
Copy !req
172. Hey, Hank, that reminds me
Copy !req
173. of a thing from a long time ago.
Copy !req
174. I forget.
Copy !req
175. You'll get a kick…
Copy !req
176. So, he likes to sleep, does he?
Copy !req
177. I can give him sleep in so many ways.
Copy !req
178. Look, Smitty may have screwed up,
Copy !req
179. but he's a good man,
and he's done a good job
Copy !req
180. for 28 of the last 29 years.
Copy !req
181. We can't let him lose his pension.
Copy !req
182. But we can't let him lose
any more games for us either.
Copy !req
183. Well, we've got an away game coming up.
Copy !req
184. That gives us some time.
Copy !req
185. There's got to be some way
to save this field
Copy !req
186. and still save Smitty's job.
Copy !req
187. Yeah, man, like, dang ol'… how, man?
Copy !req
188. Well, we're all pretty experienced
Copy !req
189. when it comes
to maintaining our own lawns.
Copy !req
190. We just need to treat this field
Copy !req
191. like it's a really big lawn.
Copy !req
192. All right!
Copy !req
193. We'll need really big lawnmowers
Copy !req
194. and really big beers.
Copy !req
195. Okay, two teams.
Copy !req
196. Lead man de-compacts the roots,
follow-man fertigates.
Copy !req
197. Now, let's roll out.
Copy !req
198. I feel like I'm cheating on my lawn!
Copy !req
199. Well, it's been a hard week,
Copy !req
200. but the grass is healthy,
the horns are pointy.
Copy !req
201. Good work, gentlemen.
Copy !req
202. If this field could talk,
I bet it would say
Copy !req
203. "Thanks for watering me, Bill.
Copy !req
204. I was very thirsty.
Copy !req
205. So, handsome, got any plans Friday night?"
Copy !req
206. Evenin', boys.
Copy !req
207. Anybody interested in a race?
Copy !req
208. In what?
Copy !req
209. You hauling a real truck
behind that little candy truck?
Copy !req
210. What you sayin' about my truck?
Copy !req
211. Well, that shiny bumper
looks like it belongs
Copy !req
212. on Barbie's Dream Truck.
Copy !req
213. Y'all shut up!
Copy !req
214. This truck is beautiful.
Copy !req
215. I call it Pretty-Pretty Truck-Truck!
Copy !req
216. I can't race, and I don't have to work.
Copy !req
217. What am I gonna do with myself?
Copy !req
218. We could go buy some more chrome.
Copy !req
219. Thanks, baby.
Copy !req
220. But chrome is the reason
I'm sitting here and not racing.
Copy !req
221. Sometimes the world is cruel
to shiny things.
Copy !req
222. What have we got here?
Copy !req
223. I was all set
to hand you your head today, Smitty,
Copy !req
224. but it looks like this turf
is back on track.
Copy !req
225. Yeah? Track?
Copy !req
226. Oh, sure, sure.
Copy !req
227. Yeah, great job, Smitty.
Copy !req
228. Who the heck but you would have thought
of tweaking the pH balance
Copy !req
229. to give it a healthy shine?
Copy !req
230. Hooray for Smitty!
Copy !req
231. Or should I say "The Wizard of Sod"?
Copy !req
232. - Way to go!
- Man, you're a dang ol' wiz, man!
Copy !req
233. Yeah, nice work, Smitty.
Copy !req
234. But we've got a big game against Killeen,
Copy !req
235. so you better keep it up.
Copy !req
236. Well, Coach, we'll let you
get down to business.
Copy !req
237. "Kill Killeen."
Copy !req
238. - Kill Killeen!
- Kill Killeen!
Copy !req
239. Kill Killeen!
Copy !req
240. Yep.
Copy !req
241. Yup.
Copy !req
242. Yup.
Copy !req
243. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
244. Who's gonna dare me to kill that bird?
Copy !req
245. Yeah.
Copy !req
246. Well, it's gonna be a long season,
Copy !req
247. and Smitty still needs our help.
Copy !req
248. Yeah, plus Killeen's got that running back
Copy !req
249. who's pretty much unstoppable.
Copy !req
250. Unless…
Copy !req
251. Wait, can you give someone polio?
Copy !req
252. No, but what we could do
Copy !req
253. is fine-tune the field
a little bit to our advantage.
Copy !req
254. Within regulation.
Copy !req
255. You mean to slow him down a bit.
Copy !req
256. Yes, exactly.
Copy !req
257. Guess it's just you and me, bird.
Copy !req
258. That's the ballgame, folks.
Copy !req
259. Final score, Arlen, 27, Killeen, 10.
Copy !req
260. Great game, Coach.
Copy !req
261. Sure looked like Killeen's running back
Copy !req
262. had trouble getting
around the end, eh, Smitty?
Copy !req
263. Eh? Ah, you bet.
Copy !req
264. Kind of looked to me like the grass
Copy !req
265. was a little thicker near the sidelines.
Copy !req
266. Well, goddangit, Smitty,
that was brilliant.
Copy !req
267. Yeah?
Copy !req
268. The Wizard of Sod!
Copy !req
269. Well, Wizard, I hope you got
a trick up your sleeve
Copy !req
270. to stop Duncanville's
hotshot kicker next week.
Copy !req
271. See you tonight, guys.
Copy !req
272. We got a kicker to stop.
Copy !req
273. Arlen wins.
Copy !req
274. Next stop, division playoffs.
Copy !req
275. Smitty, I've never seen
a kicker shank so many field goals.
Copy !req
276. How do you do it?
Copy !req
277. So, I think to myself,
"Grass'll do the trick."
Copy !req
278. So, that's what I did.
Copy !req
279. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
280. Wizard, words don't describe.
Copy !req
281. Smitty, you and your enchanted lawnmower
Copy !req
282. must help us
in our critical game against Denton.
Copy !req
283. Your thoughts?
Copy !req
284. I don't think the Wizard's gonna
wanna give up his secrets that easy.
Copy !req
285. Butt out, blockhead!
Copy !req
286. The Wizard's talking here.
Copy !req
287. People think dandelions are pretty.
Copy !req
288. But they're a weed, you know.
Copy !req
289. Ma'am. Luanne home?
Copy !req
290. Luanne works, Lucky, as do I on many days.
Copy !req
291. Now, I am warning you,
you stay away from Luanne.
Copy !req
292. Lucky!
Copy !req
293. I took off work early today!
Copy !req
294. Aren't you gonna honk me a kiss?
Copy !req
295. - Let me out.
- No.
Copy !req
296. Not until you listen to some sense.
Copy !req
297. Lucky is not the kind of man…
Copy !req
298. Aunt Peggy, Lucky says
if we were both in lockup,
Copy !req
299. I could probably take you.
Copy !req
300. But I don't wanna do that
because we're family.
Copy !req
301. So, Sports Jock,
we've got a very special guest today.
Copy !req
302. Arlen High's secret ticket to State,
Copy !req
303. the Wizard of Sod, Smitty.
Copy !req
304. State is in sight, but, Wizard,
Copy !req
305. Denton leads the division
in rushing and sacks.
Copy !req
306. You see any way to, uh, "even
the playing field," so to speak?
Copy !req
307. Don't ask stupid questions.
Copy !req
308. Look who you're talking to here.
Copy !req
309. For Denton, I'm thinking water.
Copy !req
310. And sticky paint.
Copy !req
311. They ain't gonna see that comin'.
Copy !req
312. The Wizard has spoken.
Copy !req
313. Is it just because I've been up all night
doing Smitty's job
Copy !req
314. that I'm starting to dislike him?
Copy !req
315. Smitty's one interview away
from a pencil to the eardrum.
Copy !req
316. Hank, can we tell everybody we did it?
Copy !req
317. No. Look, Smitty's ego
may be getting a little too big,
Copy !req
318. but he still deserves
to retire with dignity.
Copy !req
319. Now we need to knuckle down
Copy !req
320. and find a way to stop Denton.
Copy !req
321. Hank, this is hard!
Copy !req
322. And Bill's not carrying
my share of the load!
Copy !req
323. Hang in there, guys,
and we'll have championship seat cushions
Copy !req
324. to cherish for the rest of our lives.
Copy !req
325. Thanks for the lift, fellas.
Copy !req
326. It was on our way, Wizard.
Copy !req
327. Anything to help you take us to State.
Copy !req
328. Mmm…
Copy !req
329. Hey, they're on my field!
Copy !req
330. Hank Hill, why you wrecking my field, boy?
Copy !req
331. Sir, with all due respect,
Copy !req
332. we've only been helping out
with some basic…
Copy !req
333. "Basic"? I've done this for 30 years, son!
Copy !req
334. I'm the Wizard, the ticket to State!
Copy !req
335. You don't tell me, I tell you!
Copy !req
336. Now get off my goddang grass!
Copy !req
337. Yeah,
Copy !req
338. I see it now.
Copy !req
339. What we need this week is longer grass.
Copy !req
340. And I'm gonna triple-pump her
with ammonium nitrate,
Copy !req
341. make it grow fast.
Copy !req
342. Show you, boys, how it's done.
Copy !req
343. No! Too much nitrate'll fry
the root system.
Copy !req
344. The whole field'll die.
Copy !req
345. And with it, the championship!
Copy !req
346. My self-esteem is tied to this season!
Copy !req
347. You must be stopped!
Copy !req
348. Sam, get these crooks off of my grass.
Copy !req
349. You can't do this!
Copy !req
350. Let's not have this escalate.
Copy !req
351. Move along, sir.
Copy !req
352. Now, what else does the Wizard
have up his sleeve?
Copy !req
353. I've got it! Rock salt!
Copy !req
354. Rock salt?
Copy !req
355. - And plenty of it!
- No!
Copy !req
356. Looks like fine weather Friday night
Copy !req
357. for Arlen's big victory,
and then it's off to State.
Copy !req
358. Here's hoping.
Copy !req
359. Death to Denton, shugs!
Copy !req
360. Death to Denton.
Copy !req
361. I'll get her.
Copy !req
362. My people do not wish death
to the people of Denton,
Copy !req
363. but a crushing defeat would be just swell.
Copy !req
364. Oh, god, I can just imagine
Copy !req
365. what Smitty is doing
to that field right now.
Copy !req
366. It's not fair we're gonna have to forfeit.
Copy !req
367. How come McMaynerbury
didn't have to forfeit last year
Copy !req
368. when their field was flooded?
Copy !req
369. That was because of rain.
Copy !req
370. Article 14 says acts of God
and vandalism are deemed
Copy !req
371. to be outside the control
of the home team.
Copy !req
372. No. We can't let this happen.
Copy !req
373. The team's come this far,
Copy !req
374. and we're not gonna let 'em down.
Copy !req
375. We're too late.
Copy !req
376. This is even worse than the first game.
Copy !req
377. There goes our season.
Copy !req
378. Look at this.
Copy !req
379. I think he actually nailed the sod down.
Copy !req
380. Uh, Bobby, looks like I'm free this Friday
Copy !req
381. if you wanna see that Hilary Duff movie.
Copy !req
382. The Princess and the Poor Girl? All right!
Copy !req
383. Hank, I can't stand it any longer.
Copy !req
384. We have to do something
about Lucky and Luanne.
Copy !req
385. Tonight, they are out
on a date… in our driveway.
Copy !req
386. He's been in twice already
to use our bathroom,
Copy !req
387. and both times,
he challenged me to race his truck.
Copy !req
388. Peggy, there's nothing I can do…
Copy !req
389. This is your problem too, Hank.
Copy !req
390. On my way in, I saw a very large
truck tire mark on your lawn.
Copy !req
391. What?
Copy !req
392. Goddang it, Lucky!
Copy !req
393. Yeah, tell me 'bout it.
Copy !req
394. These treads are hell on grass.
Copy !req
395. So, Lucky,
Copy !req
396. looks like you've got
a pretty fast truck there.
Copy !req
397. It is fast, not that anyone would know it.
Copy !req
398. Well, I know it.
Copy !req
399. And what good does that do me?
Copy !req
400. The boys down at the Devil's Bowl
Copy !req
401. won't let Lucky race
his shiny truck at their track.
Copy !req
402. No, sirree.
Copy !req
403. Well, maybe you should race 'em
someplace else.
Copy !req
404. I know a good place.
Copy !req
405. But how am I supposed to get 'em to come?
Copy !req
406. They think I ain't got jack
under the hood.
Copy !req
407. And, uh, you're just gonna sit here
and take that?
Copy !req
408. You ever think that maybe
Copy !req
409. they're the ones who ain't
got jack under the hood?
Copy !req
410. What'd you say, boy?
Copy !req
411. I'm just sayin' none of y'all
got jack under the hood.
Copy !req

419. Lucky's just earned himself
a booster jacket,
Copy !req
420. even if he does cut the sleeves off.
Copy !req
421. Oh, great. Now he's a freaking hero.
Copy !req
422. I mean, I just couldn't believe it.
Copy !req
423. The whole thing was so crazy.
Copy !req
424. All these rednecks just kept chasing
this one redneck around.
Copy !req
425. It was like something out of a video game.
Copy !req
426. Well, it's vandalism, all right.
Copy !req
427. No question. The home team is not liable.
Copy !req
428. The game can proceed,
Copy !req
429. but at a neutral site to be determined.
Copy !req
430. Boy, I just think it's a shame
Copy !req
431. someone would do this
to Smitty's masterwork
Copy !req
432. after all he's given this town.
Copy !req
433. Huh?
Copy !req
434. Yeah, well, there's gonna be a big bonus
Copy !req
435. to your pension, Smitty.
Copy !req
436. I'll see to it.
Copy !req
437. That's great.
Copy !req
438. Now I can finally go to that place.
Copy !req
439. Oh, what's it called?
Copy !req
440. The flat one.
Copy !req
441. Oh, I can't wait.
Copy !req
442. There goes the greatest groundskeeper
Copy !req
443. this team will ever see.
Copy !req
444. Yep.
Copy !req
445. Yep.
Copy !req
446. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
447. Oh, let's get him back.
Copy !req
448. Aah!
Copy !req
449. So, man, what'd you get?
Copy !req
450. I got me 400 hours
of damn community service
Copy !req
451. is what I got, and a fine.
Copy !req
452. But I still got my
$18,000 settlement, by God.
Copy !req
