Ralph and Carl in “Unfinished Business”

RRalph

Can I help you?

Yeah, heard you guys might be in need of some volunteers.

RRalph

You wanna volunteer? Here?

Yes, sir. I'm in need of some documented community service. Trying to get into West Point.

RRalph

Well, great. Military boy, huh?

Yeah, strong stomach.

RRalph

Perfect. How much can you bench, son? 'Cause these sons of bitches can get heavy.

Uh, what is it exactly you guys are doing here?

RRalph

Well, come on back, I'll show you. [Shows Carl a hose leading from the exhaust pipe of an idling vehicle to a window with two dogs in a room] Got a, uh, 15-year-old Rottweiler in there and a pair of 16-year-old Mastiffs. Should be done in a second.

Done?

RRalph

Yeah. Only takes three or four minutes, if you get the, uh, hose on the tailpipe right.

You're killing dogs?

RRalph

Yeah. That's the service we offer the community, son. Euthanasia for elderly, and, uh, terminally ill dogs. I'm a retired vet. Had my own practice for, uh, 38 years. And I got sick of seeing these poor people around here shooting their own dogs in the street when they got old, toss 'em in dumpsters and drop 'em off the bridge with a--with a cinderblock tied to their paw. And all because they couldn't afford the $150 to put 'em down at the vet's. Well, now they can call Soothing Horizon. We pick 'em up, bring 'em here, and let 'em go peaceful.

In a gas chamber?

RRalph

Yep. Uh... Banjo and Lucky are dead. [Dog whimpers and thumps] Skippy too. Come on, grab a leg.
