Episode Summary |
| |
Earl takes his car troubles as a sign that it is time for him to redeem himself for a long run of stealing gas out of a complete stranger's car. A few months back, Earl and Randy siphoned gasoline for about a month from an unlock car in the trailer park.
When Earl goes back to the trailer park to return the gasoline, he discovers that the owner Philo is an annoying and suicidal man who is more determined than ever to succeed with his suicide attempts.
Unable to just walk away, Earl makes it his duty to give Philo a reason to live and it seems that setting him up on a date with Joy is the only way of doing this. Earl and Randy however, find that something else they provide is what will ultimately save Philo.
