"[ Earl Narrating ] Like most month-old vegetables... the hospital wanted to throw me out." "We can put him in county-run, long-term care, or... you can take him off our hands and receive a one-time payment of $2000 in Camden Cash... redeemable at more than six local businesses." "Paintball!" "Karma wouldn't dangle paintball in front of us if it weren't a sign." "We'll take it." "[ Earl Narrating ] Randy felt he'd made the right choice... and everywhere he looked, he saw proof of that." "How cool is it that right when I got tired of carrying you, karma made a supermarket?" "Karma rocks." "Brace yourself." "That's good, Earl." "You didn't pee that time." "My name is Earl." "[ Earl Narrating ] When you're in a coma... gettin'pushed down the street in a shopping cart, things go pretty slow." "But in my mind, time was flyin'by." "Fifty years in this old house." " We sure do have a lot of memories." " Speak for yourself." " l can't remember what I had for breakfast." " [ Audience Laughing ]" "Do you remember the time that we got into that huge fight... and neither one of us wanted to move out?" "Yeah." "[ Crying ]" "[ Sniffs ]" "Your side needs its diaper changed." "Remember when our own kids stopped bein' cute... and Cousin Wendall came and stayed with us?" "Why, Cousin Wendall, what a surprise." "What are you doing here?" "My parents are dead, so I'm movin' in with my favorite cousins... on the honky side." "That irrepressible scamp certainly turned our world upside down." " [ Earl Chuckles ]" " Earl!" "Hey, Earl!" "Randy, wait up." "Hey, Patty." "zlook what I bought at the store." "Just kiddin'." "It's Earl." "I just brought him home from the hospital." "He's still got a touch of the coma." "Yeah, they're a tough thing to shake." "I missed a lot of my 30s like that." "Well, he's not gonna be in it that long." "I mean, he's almost back to normal already." "Watch." "Every opening I stick my finger in, I get a different reaction." "Huh." "Sounds a lot like my job." "Hey, I got a wheelchair I can sell you." "Does it have a shelf underneath?" "'Cause this shopping cart's got a real good shelf underneath." "Well, it's a pretty nice chair." "It used to belong to this pimp friend of mine, Snooky." "He got rid of it 'cause he thought people didn't respect the chair." "Now he has one of his bitches carry him around on a backpack, Yoda style." ".'.'[ Hip-hop ]" "[ Earl Narrating ] Randy loved the Yoda backpack idea... but once he saw Snooky's wheelchair, that looked even better." "t had everything a crippled pimp could want.." "a bumpin'sound system, spinner hubcaps, a hook for a sock full ofbatteries  /t even had a little shelf." " .'.'[ Continues ]" "Oh, snap!" "Darnell, I'm tempted to cripple you just to get one of those." " l'm tempted to let you do it." " .'.'[ Switches Off]" "Did the hospital need the bed?" "It's nice to see they throw white folks out too." "Actually, I could have sent him to long-term care... but karma offered us paintball, Camden Cash and a wheelchair." "So, obviously, I'm doin' the right thing." "So, you're just going to take care of Earl by yourself?" "Remember when you turtle-sat the first Mr. Turtle and he ended up outside of his shell... and you shoved him back in like I wouldn't notice?" "These are the things that make me worry." "Randy, you can't do this." "Trust me." "I know what it takes to take care of somebody." "I've proven that three times to Child Services." "Would you guys leave me alone?" "He's fine." "I've already been lookin' after him a whole day." "It's your favorite, Earl:" "Chubby's Chicken with fries and a couple of beers." "It's gonna taste so good in your blood." "[ Women ] .'Bye-bye, blues.'" ".'Bye-bye, blues.'" " .'Don't cry, don't sigh.' - [ Shower Running ]" ".' The sun is shinin' No more pining'.'" ".'Smilin'through.'" ".'Don't sigh, don't cry.'" ".'Bye-bye, Bye-bye, blues.'.'" "Plus, the best part about Earl being' out of the hospital... is he can start doin' stuff from the list on his own." "If karma was makin' him a little bit better when we were crossing things off... just think how much better he'll get if he starts crossing 'em off himself." "Randy, is this a gum wrapper in his mouth?" "Yeah, I wasn't near a trash can." "Here's one he could def/nitely do on his own..number 2 4 1" ""Made Derrick Stone late for work."" "[ Earl Narrating ] /n every neighborhood, there's people... that annoy everybody else by working odd hours." "n the trailer park, those hours are 9..00 to 5..00." "[ Engine Starts ]" "How about a little respect,jackass?" "t's not even 9..00 in the mornin;" "You know we were up until 5:00." "You yelled at us at 4:30." "I'm really sorry, guys." "I just don't wanna be late for work." "[ Earl Narrating ] So to make sure we got a good day's sleep... me and Randy decided to put in a good night's work." "[ Car Alarm Chirps ]" "Son of a bitch!" "[ Chirp ]" "[ Earl Narrating ] Randy talked to Derrick... and found out being late was just the start ofhis problems." "I showed up late for work, got fired." "My girlfriend said she didn't date losers, so she broke up with me." "My own personal 9/1 1 ." "And it was actually September 1 1 ." "I'm not being dramatic." "Well, you won't be late anymore." "Now you can drive in the car pool lane... 'cause I put Earl in your backseat." " So can I cross you off the list?" " l guess." "I take the bus now." "Sold that car to the lady next door." "[ Screaming ]" "[ Screaming, Whimpers ]" " [ Thuds ]" " You're right, Earl." "Your mother's dress is see-through in this picture." "What kind of 95-year-old woman doesn't wear underwear?" "[ Earl Narrating ] After f/nding a bitchin'pair of truck stop sunglasses... to cover up my red, swollen eyes..." "Randy tried to f/nd a list item / could do in a coma." "That turned out to be a lot harder." "Number 1 1 6- "Rolled John Fenster down a hill in a porta-potty."" "Do you think Earl would mind if we did that to him?" "If you were in a coma, would you want someone rolling' you down a hill in a porta-potty?" "ziet me think." "Huh." "Huh." "Oh." "Oh." "Oh!" "Oh, no." "No, I would not." "Here we go." "Earl could do this on his own. lt's perfect." "Number 1 26- "Stole from the Henson kids."" "[ Earl Narrating ] Me and Randy werejealous of our neighbors Brett and Tiffany Henson... 'cause their folks took 'em on such great vacations." " Oh, man." "They got to go to Hawaii." " We'll do it next week." "Man, they got to go to Mystery Fun zland." "[ Man ] Who wants pizza?" "Oh, man." "They got to go skydiving." "[ Earl Narrating ] Not only did they get to go on cool vacations... now they didn't have to walk places either." "That's when / decided / wanted in on their fun." "ziet's go!" "Excuse me." "Could you at least roll us into the shade?" "Anyway, I didn't know where l could find you, so I thought" "What, that you'd look for us in the wheelchair bar?" "We're in wheelchairs, so we have to be in the wheelchair bar?" " ls that it?" " But you are here." "Only 'cause it's ladies' night. ln an hour, this place is gonna be wheel-to-wheel bitches." "Frankly, Earl deserves to be in a coma after what you did to us." "We fried like bacon out there." "Which is why I left Earl outside on the blacktop." "[ Bird Shrieks ]" "So you had to lie in the sun, now he has to lie in the sun." "That seems pretty even." "I got leg-humped by a Doberman." "I got shoulder-humped by a Doberman... to completion." "Oh, yeah." "[ zlaughing ]" "[ Continues Laughing ]" "Oh." "Oh." "So can I cross you off the list now?" "[ Chuckling ]" "[ Earl Narrating ] Randy had failed to charm the pants off Brett and Tiffany... but a homeless guy was havin' much better luck with me." "Hey!" "Get away from here!" "You need nicer pants so bad, go home and get a pair." "And get a haircut while you're at it." "You look like a bum." "[ Sighs ] Oh, man, you look thirsty, Earl." "ziet's go inside and see if they got a nice sponge you can suck on." "[ Earl Narrating ] / was burnin'up." "Fortunately, in my coma mind, things were more comfortable."

"Can I get a refill on this?" "Wow." "He really is in a coma." "That's horrible... and funny all at the same time." "You know, for someone in a wheelchair, you're not very inspirational." "Well, well, well." "Who's your friend?" "What do you care?" "You broke up with me." "[ Sighs ] I told you, Tiffany. I don't get close." "People leave, or in my case, they run over your legs with a Ford Bronco... take the kids..." "and then leave." "[ Chair Bangs ]" "What you lookin' at, Risky Business?" "I bet you just added a pint to your catheter bag, huh." "You know what, Randy?" "There is somethin' Earl can do for me." "To cross you off his list?" "Yeah.

"[ Referee ] Play ball." "[ Earl Narrating ] Tiffany f/gured the best way to make T.R.jealous... was to show me off in front of all his friends." "And all his friends were at killerball."

"His skin is piqued, he's wheezing'" "And his mustache- Where's its normal body and bounce?" "You don't think it kills me to see his mustache like that?" "But crossing' things off the list is the only way he's gonna start to get better again." "Besides, he's not that bad." "See?" "Maybe he got used to my finger." "Gimme your keys." "Randy, he doesn't need a car key shoved in his ear." "How do you know?" "You're not a doctor." "He just needs to cross somethin' off the list again." "Tiffany, make out with him, but stop if he starts to choke." "Yes, please have her stick her tongue in the zombie's mouth... 'cause this situation ain't quite wrong enough as it is." " [ Whistle Blows ] - [ Referee ] Play ball." "[ Earl Narrating ] Randy had high hopes... but unfortunately, T.R. was havin'such a great game... he didn't seem to notice us at all."

"He can't even hold a lit cigarette in his mouth to take a funny picture." "Without the cigarette, he was just a naked guy laying' in the mud." "I feel it's only fair to tell you, Randy." "I've decided if this ends the way I think it's going to... I will be testifying against you." " No hard feelings."
