8:30/7:30c is the place to be, uh-huh.

Synopsis from fox.com:
Luanne’s long lost father and Peggy's brother, Hoyt (guest voice Johnny Knoxville), returns to Arlen after being incarcerated for years. With nowhere to go, he turns to his daughter and sister for guidance and a little bit of dough. When Peggy denies him, he decides to take matters into his own hands and robs a restaurant for cash. Meanwhile, Luanne's husband, Lucky (Tom Petty), turns to Hank for some insight on how to become a better father. He comes to the conclusion that taking the blame for Hoyt’s crime might be a great way to step it up in the season finale episode “Life: A Losers Manual” of KING OF THE HILL airing Sunday, May 18 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (KH-1213) (TV-PG) CC

LOL maybe Luanne will actually be showing in this one. :p

[warnerbroman]

Wait a minute he was suppose to be in a oil rig waiting foe Leeanne to die

[tb4000]

Bobby: Well, we were all out of salty snacks, so I put out some crudite.

Hank: Ugggh.

I swear, I never get enough of Hank's inaudible groans.

[DarthGonzo]

This is going to get good.

Man when Lucky finds how much Luanne's being taken advantage of.

[warnerbroman]

wow lucky is smart lol

[tb4000]

Lucky is an ugly son of gun, he's dumb as a brick at times, but he's a likeable character.

[warnerbroman]

wow Hoyt is worse than Leeanne no wonder she stabbed him

[Desensitized]

"She's upset? I'M IN JAIL!"

Great episode. Lucky really is a likable character. I'm glad they kept him around.

[warnerbroman]

Hank: yes oil is more important than propane


OWNED!

[Classic Speedy]

I loved Hank straining to say oil was more important than propane.

I was smiling as the plot was set up towards the end of act 2. Lucky needs a good credit rating, but is torn between that and protecting Luanne's father because he loves her and wants her to be happy. Good internal conflict.

Not the funniest episode, but quite enjoyable.

[Daxdiv]

I thought that this was a good episode to end the season.

Lucky trying to become a normal citizen for Luanne's sake.

Hmm.. so the oil rig was a lie, but here the major question, did it start because he was trying to escape his wife? I just like how it was implied how hard Hoyt got punished at the end. Hoyt sure was a mean son of a gun, manipulating everyone for the sake of Luanne being fragile heart, heartless is the best word to describe him.

It was indeed a pretty good episode, Hoyt made it very enjoyable. The tower subplot had a dumb ending though.

[MezzoDragon]

While the primary plot was great, the tower subplot seemed to be nothing more than filler. Naturally, they had to destroy it by the episode's end, but it could have been done in a better way. Also, Khan is as annoying as ever.

[creativerealms]

Lucky has always been shown to be quite smart dispite his hick appearance. Smart but ignorant, just like Luanne which is why they are made for each other.

Ok I am getting sick of waiting and waiting for Luanne's baby, it's been thre seasons already, at least let it look like she's going to have one.

[Kentaro Doe]

Luanne still isn't showing? It's like there's something wrong with the baby.

[Peter Paltridge]

Luanne still isn't showing? It's like there's something wrong with the baby.
At this point, it might be funny to make an episode where someone finally notices this.

"Uh, how many months was it since you said you were pregnant, Luanne?"
"Six!"
"Uh...."
"No wait....twelve. It was twelve!"
"I see...."

Luanne finds out she was never pregnant to begin with, and then Lucky thinks his marriage is now false because he did it to make an honest woman out of her (Lucky logic), and so he leaves and Luanne gets upset and they have to find him.....see, there's a whole episode.

[Darklordavaitor]

Just when you thought that Leanne was the bad parent.

[BrendaBat]

This episode made me feel really sorry for Luanne. :( It's bad enough that her mother is a psycho. Now we find out that her father is a heartless dirtbag. Its a miracle she isn't totally messed up!


The tower subplot didn't really go anywhere. But it was funny, so I didn't mind it. :D

And I'm also wondering about Luanne's lack of a baby bump. Is she even pregnant? Or are the character designers just lazy? :p
