1. You know that guy you see going
into the convenience store...
Copy !req
2. when you stop off in that little town
on the way to Grandma's house?
Copy !req
3. Sort of shifty lookin' fella
who buys a pack of smokes,
a couple lotto scratchers...
Copy !req
4. and a tallboy at 10:00 in the mornin'?
Copy !req
5. The kind of guy you wait
to come out before you
and your family go in?
Copy !req
6. Well, that guy's me.
Copy !req
7. My name is Earl.
Copy !req
8. And if you took the time
to really get to know me,
Copy !req
9. find out what kind
of person I truly am instead
of just stereotypin' me...
Copy !req
10. because of the way I look,
well, you'd be wasting your time.
Copy !req
11. Because I'm exactly who you think I am.
Copy !req
12. Hell, I'll pretty much steal
anything that isn't nailed down.
Copy !req
13. About six years ago,
I was out drinkin' when I met
this little firecracker.
Copy !req
14. You got great boobs, Peggy.
Copy !req
15. Her name was not Peggy. My name is Joy.
Copy !req
16. You got great boobs, Joy.
Copy !req
17. She kept buyin' me drinks,
and later that night
she drove us to Vegas.
Copy !req
18. By the time I sobered up, we were married.
Copy !req
19. The next mornin' I was
recuperating from being
a little... over-served.
Copy !req
20. Morning, Hubby.
Copy !req
21. Hell, when I was drinking, I just thought
she had a bit of a belly.
Copy !req
22. Some people might think gettin'
so drunk you accidentally marry a woman...
Copy !req
23. that's six months pregnant
is a good reason to stop drinkin'.
Copy !req
24. Personally, I think it's
a good reason to keep drinkin'.
Copy !req
25. Joy didn't remember much
about the boy's real father,
except that he drove a Ford.
Copy !req
26. So, we named him Dodge.
Copy !req
27. A few years later,
we were having our first child
from my own personal seed.
Copy !req
28. The doctors already told us
he was gonna come out a boy,
Copy !req
29. so we went ahead and named him.
Copy !req
30. There he was.
Copy !req
31. Earl Jr.
Copy !req
32. People ask me how I can stay
with a cheatin' wife and two
horrible kids that aren't mine.
Copy !req
33. I guess I just believe
in the sanctity of marriage.
Copy !req
34. Besides, I'm sure just
as many people ask her why
she hasn't thrown out...
Copy !req
35. her good-for-nothing husband
and his brother who lives on their couch.
Copy !req
36. That's Randy, the best brother
anyone could ever ask for.
Copy !req
37. We usually spend our days
hanging out over at Ernie's Crab Shack.
Copy !req
38. Hey!
Copy !req
39. I got you, Earl. You're it.
Copy !req
40. You're it.
Copy !req
41. That's Sunny. We play beer can tag.
Copy !req
42. Ain't no use, running, fool.
I know where your momma parks your house.
Copy !req
43. That's Darnell.
He's always hooking us up...
Copy !req
44. with bowls full of stuff
he's not legally allowed
to put in the crab cakes.
Copy !req
45. - Thanks, Crab Man.
- No problem, Earl.
Copy !req
46. Thank you, Darnell. Anytime, Joy.
Copy !req
47. Randy and I love the free
crabmeat, and for some reason,
Joy loved comin' here too.
Copy !req
48. And if we were lucky,
Wanda would push B-7.
Copy !req
49. Oh, no, she didn't.
Copy !req
50. Wanda, don't tell me you pushed B-7.
Copy !req
51. Anyway, that was our life.
Copy !req
52. It wasn't glamorous or nothin',
but it was regular enough.
Copy !req
53. At least it was regular enough
until three weeks ago.
Copy !req
54. Son of a bitch.
Copy !req
55. Son of a bitch! Whoo-hoo!
Copy !req
56. Whoo-hoo!
Copy !req
57. I'm rich! $100,000, sucker!
Copy !req
58. That was the happiest
10 seconds of my life.
Copy !req
59. As soon as I was conscious,
Randy went back to look for my scratcher.
Copy !req
60. But I knew
he wouldn't find it.
Copy !req
61. I would have been more upset
if I wasn't so doped up.
Copy !req
62. Hey, baby. Hey there. Sign these next to
the sticky little yellow things.
Copy !req
63. Okeydokey.
Copy !req
64. Earl J. Hickey.
Copy !req
65. - Hey, Crab Man.
- Hey, Earl.
Copy !req
66. Darnell's parents threw him
out for growing weed in his
closet, so he's moving in.
Copy !req
67. - We're thinkin' about gettin' married.
- But we're married.
Copy !req
68. Not anymore we're not.
Thank you for the trailer.
Copy !req
69. Trust me, Earl, this is gonna be better
for everybody involved.
Copy !req
70. Earl Jr. really should be with his daddy.
Feel better now, okay.
Copy !req
71. Now, I've never been much
of a complainer, but lyin'
in traction that night,
Copy !req
72. knowing that I no longer had a home,
Copy !req
73. no longer had a wife...
Copy !req
74. and no longer had
a $100,000 lottery ticket,
Copy !req
75. well, I think I might have
cried if I wasn't afraid of
Randy waking up and seeing me.
Copy !req
76. Then it happened. I was just flipping
the channels...
Copy !req
77. and... he came on.
Copy !req
78. Forget about me. I wanna know about you.
I wanna know about Carson Daly.
Copy !req
79. Every time I see you,
you got a beautiful woman on your arm.
Copy !req
80. You got a talk show, you got your
own record company.
Copy !req
81. What's your secret?
Well, if you must know, uh, I'm Satan.
Copy !req
82. I don't know.
Copy !req
83. Seriously, I, uh— I've been very blessed.
Copy !req
84. I also believe that
what goes around comes around.
Copy !req
85. And that's how I try and live my life.
Copy !req
86. You do good things
and good things happen to you.
Copy !req
87. You do bad things, and it'll come back
to haunt you. It's karma.
Copy !req
88. Karma. There it was.
Copy !req
89. The secret of life coming
straight from Carson Daly's
lips to my morphine-laced ears.
Copy !req
90. When they finally
released me from the hospital,
we checked into a motel.
Copy !req
91. It didn't take Randy long to
make friends with the help. It never does.
Copy !req
92. How long is your break, Catalina?
Copy !req
93. The manager went to the dog track.
Copy !req
94. I'm on my own schedule for the afternoon.
Copy !req
95. Do good things and
good things happen to you.
Copy !req
96. Do bad things and it'll
come back to haunt you.
Copy !req
97. That's deep, Earl.
Copy !req
98. So, why don't you stop hogging
them Vicodins they gave you
Copy !req
99. we can all chat about that for a while.
Copy !req
100. - I'm talkin' about karma.
- Who's Karma?
Copy !req
101. I don't know. Something Carson Daly
came up with.
Copy !req
102. He says he does good things
in life and that's why
his life is so great.
Copy !req
103. Got me thinkin'. My life sucks,
Copy !req
104. and I ain't ever done
anything good I can think of.
Copy !req
105. Who is this Carson Daly?
Is he some sort of spiritual leader?
Copy !req
106. A holy man?
Copy !req
107. You've never seen TRL?
Copy !req
108. You need to start puttin' on
some of these TV's when you're
cleaning the toilets.
Copy !req
109. If I want a better life,
I need to be a better person.
Copy !req
110. - What's this?
- I made a list of everything
bad I've ever done.
Copy !req
111. Why? Why?
Copy !req
112. Randy, I just won $100,000
in the lottery, and was
immediately hit by a car.
Copy !req
113. I almost died because
somethin' good happened to me
that I didn't deserve.
Copy !req
114. That karma stuff is gonna
kill me unless I make up
for everything on that list.
Copy !req
115. "Number 23—
peed in the back of a cop car."
Copy !req
116. I'm no longer proud of that.
Copy !req
117. "Number 41— snatched
a kid's Halloween candy...
Copy !req
118. when he came to my trailer
to trick or treat."
Copy !req
119. That was wrong, and I know that now.
Copy !req
120. "Number 102— harmed
and possibly killed...
Copy !req
121. innocent people with secondhand smoke."
Copy !req
122. How in the world are you gonna fix
these things, Earl?
Copy !req
123. I don't know. Start with the easy ones.
Copy !req
124. Like, um, number 64—
Copy !req
125. "Picked on Kenny James."
Copy !req
126. I used to torment the hell out
of that poor boy back
in elementary school.
Copy !req
127. What do you think you're
gonna do about it now?
I don't know. Find him.
Copy !req
128. - Do something nice for him, and
then cross him off the list.
- Excuse me.
Copy !req
129. But if my boss comes back
and sees there's no garbage
in the parking lot,
Copy !req
130. he's gonna get used to it like that.
Copy !req
131. - So could you please put it back?
- No, I can't.
Copy !req
132. Number 136— I've been a litterbug.
Copy !req
133. Well, here. Cross that one off
your stupid list.
Copy !req
134. I can't cross it off the list.
Not until I've picked up
as much as I littered.
Copy !req
135. And my list isn't stupid either.
It's my road map to a better life.
Copy !req
136. Well, I hope that road has
free gas and free food...
Copy !req
137. and a van big enough for us to sleep in,
Copy !req
138. 'cause we've just spent
our last $45 on this room.
Copy !req
139. And I'm not cuttin' into my beer money
for some stupid-ass crusade.
Copy !req
140. Son of a bitch. It's workin'.
Copy !req
141. When I went
over to the lottery office,
they sure made a big fuss.
Copy !req
142. Randy had an idea to get an
extra 100,000 out of the deal.
Copy !req
143. Thank you, Isetta.
Copy !req
144. But I knew it wasn't gonna work.
Copy !req
145. Can I borrow a pen?
Copy !req
146. I wanted to get started on my
list as soon as possible,
Copy !req
147. so my life would start gettin' better.
Copy !req
148. Hell, it was already better.
Copy !req
149. Our new friend Catalina had
the day off and nothin' to do,
Copy !req
150. so Randy and I had
somethin' pretty to look at.
Copy !req
151. Plus, I finally had enough
money to buy somethin' I've
always wanted for my car.
Copy !req
152. - Which house belongs
to this boy you tortured?
Copy !req
153. That's his parents' house
right over there.
Copy !req
154. We don't know where Kenny lives now,
but Randy'll find out.
Copy !req
155. Whoa, whoa, whoa. That's four.
Copy !req
156. - I'm still thirsty.
- Look, you had four.
Copy !req
157. You can have another one
when you come out. Go on now.
Copy !req
158. - So, why aren't you going in?
- I get nervous when I lie.
Copy !req
159. Randy's a pro, so long
as he's got the right number
of beers in him.
Copy !req
160. Four seems to be the magic number.
Copy !req
161. Anymore and he starts to get
a little bit... unpredictable.
Copy !req
162. Earl, you're brother shaved the
damn cat again!
Copy !req
163. Randy hadn't been inside
Kenny's parents house since we
robbed it in high school.
Copy !req
164. And all we got was a backpack
full of birds.
Copy !req
165. So, are you visiting all of
Kenny's classmates' parents?
Copy !req
166. Only the ones we've lost contact with.
Copy !req
167. You see, as class president,
it's my duty to organize the reunion,
Copy !req
168. and I'd hate for anyone
to miss out on all the fun.
Copy !req
169. You know, what with
all that catching up and them
little appetizers and all.
Copy !req
170. Oh, isn't that sweet? Can I get you
a beer, son?
Copy !req
171. I would love a beer. Thank you.
Copy !req
172. - Whoa. What are you doing?
- You don't like me?
Copy !req
173. No, no. You're nice. It's just Randy.
Copy !req
174. When you came in to give us
towels, he called dibs.
Copy !req
175. Dibs.
Copy !req
176. In case you're wondering how
many beers it takes for Randy
to get himself into trouble,
Copy !req
177. nine seems to be the magic number.
Copy !req
178. Luckily, he got Kenny's address
before he pissed off Mr. James.
Copy !req
179. I think I have Kenny's yearbook
in here somewhere.
Copy !req
180. Dibs.
Copy !req
181. At first we had a little
trouble finding Kenny's house.
Copy !req
182. You see, Randy wrote the
address on his hand,
Copy !req
183. and sweated off the last digit
during his getaway.
Copy !req
184. But eventually we found it.
Copy !req
185. There he is. Kenny James.
Copy !req
186. Man, I got a weird feelin' in my stomach.
Copy !req
187. Maybe you got stomach cancer.
Copy !req
188. Can karma cause stomach cancer?
Copy !req
189. I don't know.
Copy !req
190. It's probably just guilt.
Copy !req
191. She was
probably right. I wasn't proud
of the way I treated Kenny.
Copy !req
192. - Hey, Kenny!
Copy !req
193. I bet you strike out again, you dork!
Copy !req
194. That's enough, Earl!
Copy !req
195. Just ignore him, Kenny, and try your best.
Copy !req
196. You're out!
Copy !req
197. I watched Kenny for a few days...
Copy !req
198. and tried to figure out
how to make up for all
the abuse I put him through.
Copy !req
199. Kenny had a good job
as an assistant manager at the Copy Hut,
Copy !req
200. a powder blue Le Car he took pride in...
Copy !req
201. and the nicest house on the block.
Copy !req
202. But he didn't have anyone
to share it with. He was lonely.
Copy !req
203. There was something special
missin' in his life that
every man needs to feel whole.
Copy !req
204. I gotta get him laid.
Copy !req
205. - What?
- Kenny. I made him feel bad
his whole childhood.
Copy !req
206. If I wanna cross him off my list, I gotta
make him feel good.
Copy !req
207. A little pleasure to make up
for all that pain.
Copy !req
208. What kind of woman are
you gonna get to have sex with
a scrawny little man like that?
Copy !req
209. Yeah. You need muscles to get laid.
Copy !req
210. Not with Patty you don't.
Copy !req
211. Patty wasn't your
run-of-the-mill prostitute.
Copy !req
212. She was a daytime hooker.
Copy !req
213. It takes a special kind of
woman to sell sexual favors in
the light of day.
Copy !req
214. And I was right. Patty doesn't
care if a man has muscles.
Copy !req
215. Muscles can't buy Mad Dog.
Copy !req
216. - Hey Patty.
- Hi, boys.
Copy !req
217. Is it Randy's birthday already?
Copy !req
218. No, we got another job for you.
Copy !req
219. Hello. Hey, sweetie.
I'm from Greenpeace.
Copy !req
220. I need to talk to you
about the sky and whales
and all that crap.
Copy !req
221. You got anything to drink in here?
Copy !req
222. Do you have a toothbrush I can borrow?
Copy !req
223. Ma'am.
Copy !req
224. Well, look who's coming.
Copy !req
225. You're it!
Copy !req
226. Hey, Earl. Nice one.
Copy !req
227. Hey, you guys lookin' to rob one
of these houses?
Copy !req
228. 'Cause there's an unlocked one
right down the street.
Copy !req
229. No, thanks.
Copy !req
230. Alright, look, if it's about last time,
Copy !req
231. I promise I'm not gonna mess up again.
Copy !req
232. Where'd Sunny go?
Copy !req
233. Sorry, Sunny, but I'm out of the
house robbing business.
Copy !req
234. Bye, sweetie.
Copy !req
235. And into the pimping business.
Copy !req
236. Well, I can help out with that too.
Copy !req
237. I gotta uncle, real lonely guy,
Copy !req
238. but he gets a disability check
every Thursday.
Copy !req
239. Look, Sunny, we'll talk about it later.
Copy !req
240. - How'd it go?
- He gave me $10 to help baby monkeys.
Copy !req
241. How was the sex?
You got anything in the tank
left over for me?
Copy !req
242. - We didn't do it.
- What? Patty we had a deal.
Copy !req
243. I did what you said. I told him I thought
he was cute.
Copy !req
244. And I tried to kiss him,
but he wasn't interested.
Copy !req
245. Damn it, Patty. I'm on a schedule here.
Come on, Randy.
Copy !req
246. I tried, Earl. I did.
Towards the end I even
pulled out my good boob.
Copy !req
247. You think he's gonna remember you?
Copy !req
248. - Yeah, I think he remembers me.
Copy !req
249. - Kenny, calm down.
- I have a restraining order
against you, Earl Hickey.
Copy !req
250. But that was written
on a brown paper bag by
the school nurse 20 years ago.
Copy !req
251. Besides, I made you eat it, remember?
Copy !req
252. Yeah, well, just take
what you want and leave.
Copy !req
253. All I wanna do is talk.
Copy !req
254. Hold on a sec, if you're giving
stuff away, I'll take this.
Copy !req
255. Put it down.
Copy !req
256. It's got a CD player in it.
Copy !req
257. Put it down!
Copy !req
258. Listen, Kenny. I'm here to help you.
Copy !req
259. I don't need your help.
Copy !req
260. Buddy, you just gave up
a chance to have free sex
with a daytime hooker.
Copy !req
261. - You need my help.
- Earl?
Copy !req
262. - Not now, Randy.
- Shut that drawer!
Copy !req
263. Kenny, I'm here to help you find a woman
so that you can be happy.
Copy !req
264. Earl, I think you're tryin'
to sell a cat to a man who fancies dogs.
Copy !req
265. I know this might sound crazy
in this day and age,
Copy !req
266. but we live in a small town,
and I've never been
face-to-face with a gay before.
Copy !req
267. I understand now the runnin'
probably wasn't necessary.
Copy !req
268. That's it. Kenny's off the list.
Good.
Copy !req
269. Isn't that against the rules?
Look, I made the list.
That means I make the rules.
Copy !req
270. The guy was gay. Gay.
That's special circumstances.
Copy !req
271. I don't have to help if
there's special circumstances.
Copy !req
272. Here. Get us a couple of cheeseburgers
from the machine.
Copy !req
273. Okay. So, what's next?
Copy !req
274. Number 86— stole a car
from a one-legged girl.
Copy !req
275. What happened here?
Copy !req
276. Ow! Damn, girl! Have you lost your mind?
Copy !req
277. - Who's the whore?
- What did you just call me?
Copy !req
278. - She's the maid. Relax.
- Did you think I wasn't gonna find out?
Copy !req
279. Damn. Look at that. My eyes are closed.
Copy !req
280. I want half that lotto money, Earl.
Copy !req
281. I wanted a legitimate baby
and a wife who didn't
huff paint on Thanksgivin',
Copy !req
282. but I guess life's full
of little disappointments, now ain't it?
Copy !req
283. They only had one Mello Yello left.
You wanna wrestle for it?
Copy !req
284. That's it! Gimme the damn phone!
Copy !req
285. I'm gonna get that money, Earl! I want it.
Copy !req
286. That's your ex-wife?
Yep.
Copy !req
287. As crazy as she is, I'd be lyin' if I said
I wasn't gonna miss her.
Copy !req
288. - Hey, Earl.
- Hey, Crab Man.
Copy !req
289. What happened?
Copy !req
290. Karma. Karma happened.
Copy !req
291. And I believed it too.
Think about it.
Copy !req
292. As soon as I decided not to help Kenny,
Copy !req
293. Joy broke into my room
and beat me up with a phone.
Copy !req
294. That's when I realized
I have to stick to the plan.
Copy !req
295. There are no special circumstances.
Copy !req
296. I may have made the list,
but I do not make the rules.
Copy !req
297. Karma makes the rules.
Copy !req
298. The one-legged girl would have to wait.
Kenny had to be first.
Copy !req
299. Stay away. I bought Mace.
I just want to talk, Kenny. Relax.
Copy !req
300. Ow!
Copy !req
301. Kenny?
Copy !req
302. Hey, Kenny. How's it feelin' now?
Copy !req
303. Better, yeah. Thanks for pinning me
down on the ground,
Copy !req
304. prying my eyes open
and pouring the milk in.
Copy !req
305. - I think that helped a lot.
- You steal enough purses, you
learn a few things about Mace.
Copy !req
306. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
307. Why—
Copy !req
308. God, wow. That's—
Copy !req
309. Why don't you have a man, Kenny?
Copy !req
310. What?
Copy !req
311. If you like... men,
Copy !req
312. why don't you, uh, have a man?
Copy !req
313. That's none of your business.
Copy !req
314. No, it's not. I know that.
Copy !req
315. Trust me, I don't really wanna know.
It's just you seem lonely.
Copy !req
316. And I gotta figure out how
I'm gonna help you so I can
cross you off my list.
Copy !req
317. What list?
Copy !req
318. You're number 64.
But don't let that fool you.
Copy !req
319. I'm doin' you first.
Copy !req
320. You see, Kenny, my life sucks.
Copy !req
321. And it's because I've been a bad person.
Copy !req
322. I'm hopin' if I can do some good things,
Copy !req
323. then maybe some good things
might finally happen to me.
Copy !req
324. You're talking about karma.
Copy !req
325. You're a Carson Daly fan too, huh?
Copy !req
326. Yeah, I'm talkin' about karma.
Copy !req
327. You're really trying to change?
Copy !req
328. If I don't, I think life's gonna kill me.
Copy !req
329. I don't have a man because...
nobody knows I'm gay.
Copy !req
330. You know what this town is like, Earl.
Copy !req
331. Besides, even if people knew,
where am I gonna meet anyone?
Copy !req
332. What about the city?
Don't they have special bars
for the queers?
Copy !req
333. I'm sorry. Uh, Homosexual-Americans.
Copy !req
334. I tried that once.
Copy !req
335. I drove an hour and a half
just to sit out front
in my car, too scared to go in.
Copy !req
336. You need to move your car.
Copy !req
337. Oh, I'm straight!
Copy !req
338. You can't park here.
Copy !req
339. OK. I'm straight.
Copy !req
340. What if I went with you?
Copy !req
341. - What?
- Maybe you won't be scared
if you're not alone.
Copy !req
342. Earl Hickey is going
to take me to a gay bar?
Copy !req
343. I don't have a choice, Kenny.
Copy !req
344. I didn't wanna be
the only non-gay there,
Copy !req
345. so luckily, Randy agreed
to go as soon as he heard
there were gonna be bubbles.
Copy !req
346. You like that one?
Copy !req
347. Uh, I don't— I don't know.
He's cute, I guess.
Copy !req
348. All right. I'll go talk to him.
Copy !req
349. You wanna be the man or the woman?
Copy !req
350. Wait. You're just gonna
go over there and talk to him?
Copy !req
351. Yeah. He's gay,
but he ain't gonna bite me.
He ain't gonna bite me, is he?
Copy !req
352. Look, maybe I should do this myself.
I can't let you do that.
Copy !req
353. I gotta be the one to help you if I wanna
cross you off my list.
Copy !req
354. Wait, wait, wait. You have helped me.
Copy !req
355. Look, my whole life I've been scared to be
who I really am...
Copy !req
356. because of what people might think.
Copy !req
357. But then Earl Hickey
brought me to a gay bar.
Copy !req
358. Earl Hickey went to Express for Men
and bought me a shirt.
Copy !req
359. Earl Hickey, the one man
I was the most scared of in my whole life,
Copy !req
360. has accepted me as I am.
Copy !req
361. Look, when we were kids,
you took away my confidence.
Copy !req
362. But today you gave it back. Thanks, Earl.
Copy !req
363. You can cross me off your list.
Copy !req
364. And there you have it.
Copy !req
365. Never underestimate
the power of confidence.
Copy !req
366. It's midnight, boys.
And that means it's time
to take it old school.
Copy !req
367. Oh, no, you didn't. Tell me you didn't
just go old school!
Copy !req
368. And never underestimate
15 beers,
Copy !req
369. a little enlightenment...
Copy !req
370. and the power of Rob Base and DJ EZ Rock.
Copy !req
371. Well, one down, 258 to go.
