You know what Jacob said. Jacob said that old Billy Henchel was killed in a car crash. Head on collision with a freight truck. Cleared his car straight over the bridge into the Mississippi.

Lucky bastard.

Max

You bet.

Hey, how is he anyway?

Max

Hes Dead! Died on impact!

Jacob, moron. Jacob!

John tells his father that Ariel moved in.

Did you hear, someone moved into the old Klickner place? A woman.

Grandpa

A woman?

Yeah.

Grandpa

Did you mount her?

Ohhh, Dad!

Grandpa

Well the woman, does she have big thighs?

No!

Grandpa

No?! Then what's the problem? If I was a young fella like you, I'd be mounting every woman in Wabasha. (Grabs the six pack of beer out of his son's hands). Keep the change!

Yeah, but the flesh was, uh....

Weak! Weak!
