Now, Minh, the game of Boggle is really quite simple. The goal is to make words out of these 25 letter cubes. [shakes the tray and slams it on the table] Ho yeah!
[Peggy lifts the cover and the game begins]
Ba mee tom yum.
It's gotta be a real word, honey.
Minh Yes! Ba mee tom yum, Thai spicy noodle soup! Tasty and delicious.
I'll tell you, I hate to see Nancy cooped up all Sunday playing that Boggle. It's a beautiful day! She oughta be outside hanging my laundry!
Boy, Aunt Peg, the words I don’t know could fill a dictionary.
You know, the Elks are having a Boggle tournament in order to raise bail money for their treasurer. Maybe you should enter.
Me? Oh, fish, I just play for fun! Minh, you owe me $13.
[gives Peggy her money] Thank you for Boggle lesson, Peggy Hill! Maybe next week I teach you mahjong. Bring your checkbook!
Hank, I'm thinking of entering a Boggle tournament over at the Elks.
Hank Boggle? Boy, the Elks will do anything for a dollar. Are they still playing that game where the cow's gotta drop dung in a square?
Boggle is nothing like cow bingo, Hank. Boggle is a game of wits. Now, cow bingo is a game of strategy.
Boy, that wife of yours is pretty good! I guess that's why they call her your "better half!" [chuckles]
Hank Who calls her that?!
[beat]
…They.
Hey, you wanna be my coach?
A Boggle coach? What would I do?
Well, Hank, you don't have to do anything, you just have to be there. Unless you want me to go up to Dallas by myself.
Dallas? I don't want you going to Dallas at all! That place is crawling with crack heads and debutantes. And half of them play for the Cowboys.
[Hank is checking in at the Dallas hotel front desk]
Checking in. The name's Hank Hill.
Hmmm… nope. I have a "Peggy Hill".
Yeah, that's it, "Hank and Peggy Hill".
I have a "Peggy Hill"!
She's my wife.
Okay, uh, "Mr. and Mrs. Peggy Hill".
[hits the table with his fist with each exclamation point, ringing the bell and summoning one bellhop behind him each time] Now you listen to me! The name is HANK! Hill! Mister! Hank! Hill! Peggy married ME! I didn't marry HER!
[Hank looks behind at the small crowd of bellhops now behind him]
WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING AT?!
[crying] I am so stupid!
Aw, you're not stupid. Heck, you're smarter than me.
Oh, big deal!
Well, you're smarter than anyone else in Arlen.
Well, whoop-dee-do! I am the smartest hillbilly in Hillbillytown!
I-I'm trying Peggy. I just… hey, you know Coach used to say something that would fire us up when we were behind?
Yeah? What?
[furiously]] LOSER! YOU'RE A LOSER! ARE YOU FEELING SORRY FOR YOURSELF?! WELL, YOU SHOULD BE CAUSE YOU ARE DIRT! YOU MAKE ME SICK, YOU BIG BABY! BABY WANT A BOTTLE?! A BIG DIRT BOTTLE?!
[crying harder] WHY ARE YOU YELLING AT ME?!
Uh, well, I'm trying to be your coach. I… It's… It's inspiring!
Well, thank you, cause I feel worse than ever!
Well, it worked for the team.
No it didn't! You went to State and lost!
Ah, jeez! I think I need one of those $8 beers.
[Boomhauer is playing a virtual reality mowing simulator.]
Man that dang ol' piece of crap dang ol' blocked up, [reaches into the mower to get the grass out] g-get grass out there that-- [sees that his fingers have been chopped off in the game] AHH! I AIN'T GOT NO FINGERS!
