you was the first one in the car.

- Yeah, that's why I ran first.

I got longer legs, man.

[Sirens Wailing,

Horns Honking]

[Mutters]

what's goin' on?

- I don't know, man. Yeah.

- God! There must be a fire

or somethin', huh? Man.

what's that?

- A knife.

- Holy smokes!

- Yeah.

- Hey, Gus, it looks like

it's got blood on it.

Sure does.

there's blood on it, Joe.

Hey, we could use it

to scale our fish.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

We'll use it to scale our fish.

[Joe] It feels good to get the car

back, Gus. I'll tell you that.

[Gus]

Smells good too.

Yeah.

Holy smokes!

Look at this place, Gus!

- Yeah, this must be it, Joe.

- Yeah.

But the sign says

"Rod & Gun Club,"Gus.

Oh. Glory Glades

must be a few miles away.

- Yeah, this ain't it, huh?

- Yeah.

- it's probably just as nice.

- I bet it's even nicer.

- Yeah, that's right.

- Yeah.

So far, Gus, l-I don't

like the landscaping, I'll tell ya that.

Yeah, somebody

ain't doin' their job, that's for sure.

This must be where the workers stay.

Yeah, let's go ask.

Yeah, let's go ask.

like a paradise, Joe.

[Belches]

Howdy there, folks.

Can I help y' all?

[Joe] Yeah, we're lookin'

for Glory Glades Lodge.

This here's it.

- This is it? [Muttering]

- No, no. Like here.

- Show him the coupon.

- See? Glory Glades.

- [Joe] That Glory Glades.

- Ah, the lodge!

We got two coupons

we won.

It was a beautiful lodge,

but she's gone now.

- Gone?

- Hurricane Andrew flattened it

flatter than flat.

Took us ten months

to clean this place up.

[Spittoon Dings,

Cat Screeches]

But not to worry. We got plenty of room.

Let me see that coupon again.

Oh, yeah, here.

Hmm. Well, y' all can stay

in one of them campers.

[Flies Buzzing]

We gotta stay in there?

Both of us?

Why, that's a big camper.

there's room for four or five,

and it's just the two of you.

- You ain't got no pets, have you?

- ain't you got nothin' else?

Oh, that's the top of the line.

I don't think you want what else we got.

- I guess we'll go check it out.

- Yeah.

that's the top of the line.

I just cleaned her out.

- [Bird Squawking]

- Hey, hey, give me that!

Friggin' slob.

I'll tell you what, Gus.

It doesn't look anything

like the picture.

Yeah, they should' ve sent us

a new brochure if they're gonna

change the picture like that.

- Yeah.

- Yeah, they got a lotta nerve

callin' this first prize.

- [Thunder Rumbling]

- I wonder what the losers got.

Six months in Sing Sing?

- Yeah, maybe.

- Careful. Why don't you go first?

There might be rats.

Go ahead, you're bigger.

- Me?

- Go ahead.

[Joe Shudders]

[Gus]

it's okay. Come on in, Joe.

[Alex Trebek Reading Clue]

- Richard?

- [Richard] Who was Dionysus?

- Correct.

- Holidays and Observances for 100.

In 1915, President Wilson

proclaimed this holiday

as the second Sunday in May.

Richard.

Yeah, change it.

- Yeah, I know.

[Joe] Hey, Country' s Criminals.

This is a good show.

- Yeah, I like this one.

- Yeah, you see some action stuffhere.

[Man On TV]

I love you so much, Gladys.

I could not live without you.

- Honestly.

- [Woman] Sure he could.

Gladys Sussner

is one of 43 women...

who this ruthless con artist

married and then stole from.

Wow, 43 ladies.

And it was Gladys

who was found dead with stab wounds.

This man

is the prime suspect.

- Hey, Gus, look who it is!

- Dekker Massey.

- it's the guy who stole my car!

- Yeah!

Dekker' s partner, his

educationally challenged

brother Quentin...

- This guy' s a killer,

and we didn't even know it.

- Was arrested...

but the police and

the federal authorities...

are still searching for Dekker Massey

and the murder weapon.

Hey, we got the evidence.

We don't have

any evidence, Joe.

- A $100, 000 reward...

- A $100, 000 reward!

For evidence linking

Massey to the crime.

- The knife in the car!

- The knife!

Yeah, with the blood on it.

- Yeah, with the blood on it.

- Maybe he used that

to stab that poor old lady.

- Yeah.

- Holy smokes, Gus!

And $5 million

in cash and jewelry,

believed to have been

hidden away by Dekker' s brother,

is still missing.

- Joe... we're gonna be rich, Joe!

- we're gonna be rich!

- If you can help us, please call today.

- Gus, write down the number!

- Write the number down!

- We'll be right back.

I don't believe it, Gus.

A hundred thousand dollars.

we're gonna be rich, Gus.

All we have to do is turn the knife in,

and we get the reward!

Gus, you know what we'll do.

Tomorrow we buy a fishing boat

first and go fishin'!

- Yeah, we'll get a boat

just like our old one, Joe!

- Better! Better, Gus!

- Joe, this is easy.

- Oh, man, I can't believe it.

- No more worries, Gus.

- No more worries, Joe!

been in with one?

- Two fellas come in last night.

- They still here?

Do you know where

They've gone?

They asked me where

they could buy a boat.

And did you

suggest a place?

- [Spittoon Dings]

- Yep.

Which place?

Oh, it's nice, Joe.

It has a kitchen.

You know, hey, Joe,

The guys who can't fish get these.

they're show-offs.

- Yeah.

- Holy smokes!

- Whoo!

- Why is it so expensive, Gus?

- Because we bought ours used

20 years ago.

- Yeah.

Yeah. Hey, Joe, maybe we

oughta just fish off the dock,

like we used to do

in the old days, yeah?

Look, I don't care.

You wanna just rent one?

We'll rent one.

Yeah, we can rent one.

Then we'll buy a real nice

used one when we get back home.

- [Man] it's sad, isn' t it?

"The Little Guy."
