Eight Crazy Nights
Well, all right. Look at all that
beautiful, white stuff come down.
Christmas is right around the corner...
... And Hanukkah starts tonight.
Ain't a better time of year.
You got no school, you can eat
like a pig and people give you stuff.
Just makes you feel tingly all over.
But you know what?
There are some buffoons out there who
actually can't stand the holiday season.
enjoy the festivities...
... Gets them even more disgusted.
In fact, the head honcho of holiday
humbug...
... Lives right here in little old dukesberry.
His name's Davey Stone.
That fool's in the China dragon...
... Coming up with his own way
Four scorpion bowl in five minute?
That's got to be a restaurant record.
Well, right now I'm going to go for
another restaurant record: Longest burp.
Congratulations. Now, please excuse me
while I go take shower.
At one time, Davey was a super student,
super athlete...
... Super sweet, super kid and the apple
of his parents' eye.
Now, he's just a 33-year-old,
crazy Jewish guy...
... Who lives for making this town
as miserable as he is...
... Especially on the first night
of Hanukkah.
How'd he end up this way?
Let's save that for later...
... Because right now, Davey's about to
get himself into some serious trouble.
Hope you're not planning on driving
tonight, Stone.
No, officer. I'm just going to say
good night to my car...
Then walk home and enjoy
the holiday decorations.
Listen, sweetheart. I have to leave you
here alone tonight...
But don't you worry, I'll be back
first thing in the morning.
Now, behave yourself,
and don't stay up too late.
Nighty-night.
All right, baby. But let's make this quick.
Oh, mama!
You like it when I hold you like this?
Because I'll do it all night long.
So sweet.
Yes, so precious.
I love you, car.
He dine and dash me! He chew and
screw me! He sip and skip me!
- What?
- He no pay for his four scorpion bowl.
Oh, boy.
Get him.
Come back here, you jerk!
Somebody stop that guy!
I'm the kind of guy who can't stand
a holiday
so I drink them all away, that's me
i don't decorate no trees
and I won't eat no potato latkes
but I'll give this old lady's melons
a squeeze
that's just who I am
well, I'll never spin a dreidel,
and I'll Charley horse your leg for laughs
while you're singing your holiday tunes
I'm acting like the town buffoon
whipping out my big, white, scary moon
and blowing a beef your way
i hate folks who think reindeer are cute
to me they're just something to shoot
i hate love
i hate you
i hate me
well, I'm a snowmobile-stealing
no 'tis-the-season-feeling kind of guy
this time of year sucks
so I take my nunchaks
and make sure every snowman dies
believing in Santa's all wrong
and Hanukkah's eight nights too long
i hate love
i hate you
i hate me
coming through.
I hate love
i hate you
i hate me
Davey Stone, you're nothing
but a delinquent!
Stone, what the heck are we
going to do with you?
I've sent you to reform school, the drunk
tank, the local psychiatric ward.
Not one of those places has made you
change an ounce for the better.
You used to be a good kid...
Playing ball for the Jewish community
centre, with the best jump shot ever seen.
Your honor, I still got a pretty good
jump shot. Let me show you.
I'd hit a 3-pointer, but I'd
have to drop my pants...
And pop a thumb up my boo-boo.
You leave me no choice. I'll really
have to crack down hard this time.
Your honor, if it pleases the court,
I'd like to interject for a moment.
What the hell was that? Did anybody else
hear a parakeet, or am I going crazy?
No, Mr. Chang. It's me, Whitey Duval.
And a happy first night of Hanukkah
to you.
I'm not Jewish.
Neither am I, but that don't stop me
from enjoying a holiday.
Whitey, we went over this
two months ago.
It's your last year of reffing
You're turning 70 years old...
And our insurance company says
they won't cover you anymore.
No, no, no.
My interjection pertains to the case
currently under adjudication.
You see, I knew this young man
years ago...
When his moral fiber was still intact.
What are you getting at?
Why not sentence him to be a
referee-in-training for youth basketball?
I've seen some pretty rowdy kids
turn into perfect gentlemen...
After spending time on my court.
If that happened with Stone,
it would be a miracle.
It's the holidays. Things like that have
been known to happen this time of year.
Whitey, if you want to work with
this punk, then God bless you.
But Mr. Stone, what Whitey says goes.
And if I hear that you break one law...
I'll send you to the state
penitentiary for no less than 10 years.
Happy holidays.
Oh, God.
The short man who's kind
and the donkey's behind.
Good luck, Whitey. You'll need it.
Okay, let's give the little guy
some support.
Did I just see two persian cats
on your ass?
Your horn works, try the lights.
Okay.
One. Two.
Good to see you still got circus feet.
Men's 11 right foot, children's
9 left foot...
At your service.
Yuck.
Now, I assume you've done
your pre-game stretching.
No, let me do it right now.
One. Two. Three.
Four. Five. Six.
Okay. That's good, but don't forget
your hammies.
Of course Whitey wouldn't understand
what getting flipped off means.
He's so behind the times,
he thinks Viagra's a big waterfall.
But there is one thing he knows.
The voting has begun for the highest
honor anyone in town could receive.
I think it's gonna be your year, Whitey.
I really do.
Whoa. Don't even think of coming
on this floor with those hard soles, pally.
Fine, I'll just ref in my socks.
Must be game time.
Don't let him push your buttons, whitey.
What are you waiting for?
- Come on. Dribble!
- Hurry up!
What, no whistle on that one, ref?
Okay.
Foul on this kid for eating
everything in sight.
Jelly jugs, next time you come on
my court, you better wear a bra. Okay?
He was just kidding, son.
You've got very nice b*obs.
- Jerk!
- Idiot!
You don't like that? How about you
throw something at me. I dare you.
With pleasure!
They're scratching up my floor.
Here comes a seizure.
This will pass in a second, kids.
Don't be scared.
Is he break dancing?
Okay, that's it. Game over.
Nobody wants to see an old man die.
Fatty's team loses because
I want to see him cry again.
I want to talk to you in my office.
Why the hell are we at the mall?
You need to clean your brain out.
And to me, the mall is the best place
to do that.
What's good about this place?
What's good about it? Everything.
You want a pair of socks?
My buddy, Mr. foot locker,
will warm your feet.
You need a fancy doodad?
Hello, sharper lmage. Thanks for the
combination pogo sticklclock radio.
I mean, the body shop, the tie rack...
Gnc, radioshack...
Petland for a cat or two,
