Joe Dirt Page #6
The past is past. The future's now.
That's true. Amen to that.
Are you from around here?
Your accent sounds like New York.
No. From here.
Born and raised, though not here.
Over in Kansas.
Is this your wife?
Ex-wife.
She was shot six times.
New York City. I mean Kansas.
She was something. Her eyes
were something azure, you know?
Honey-blonde hair. Her body.
Her legs went on for days.
If she was here right now, maybe we'd
have a house with a little fence...
...up in Silvertown,
that place you talk about.
That's a nice place.
I miss her.
Clem, a kid puked in the cafeteria
again. We need a cleanup right away.
I'm on it.
That's you.
- I'm Joe. Where's the throw up?
- Over there.
I'll clean it up lickety-split.
Speaking of lickety-split, let's
meet up later, see what's going on.
I'm kidding.
But seriously, let's hook up.
I'm new in town, kind of lonely,
looking for my parents.
The puke pile's right over there.
It's a pretty big pile of puke.
So clean the puke. Okay.
Well, well. Lookie here.
Corn off the cob.
This kid should get his money back.
- The janitor's going to eat the puke.
- They're hilarious, huh?
I won't. I'm a vegetarian
and looks like there's some meat.
I like kids. They seem to like-
They seem to like me.
I'll try the old reverse psychology.
I like getting hit with hot dogs.
It don't bother me.
Guess I'm lucky it wasn't
hot chili day today.
Okay, class.
Let's hear these results.
If my calculations are correct,
this will create ice.
Killer mustard gas!
What'd you say?
You're talking to me all wrong.
It's the wrong tone.
Do it again, I'll stab you in the face
with a soldering iron.
Is that right?
Let me ask you something.
Does your mother sew?
Get her to sew that!
could think of something funnier than:
"Don't eat it! Here's a hot dog. "
What's going on, man?
Did you kick their asses?
- He saved us from the mustard gas.
- You saved our lives, Clem.
Not me.
That's the guy!
You're the one that carried us out.
Shut up, you hard-on.
That's the guy! That's the hero.
All right. Well, then,
thank God for Joe Dirt.
- Oh, no, man. It wasn't me.
- That's Joe Dirt!
Joe Dirt! Joe Dirt!
Come on, Joe Dirt!
How does it feel to be a hero, Joe?
Well, it's like this...
Especially after that brutal
run-in with Buffalo Bob.
I don't know why you ask me.
Nothing happened.
That's not what I heard.
What's the deal with your haircut?
It's a wig. I was born
without the top of my skull.
Everybody, I'm looking for my parents.
Here's a picture of them. It's taken
If anybody has any information
on their whereabouts...
...please call this number.
You might get a machine, but if
a girl answers, her name is Brandy.
Give her your info.
I appreciate any help I can get.
That being said,
here's the real scoop.
I ain't the guy that saved them kids.
I'm sorry, man.
Here's the real hero.
His name is Clem Doore, from Josette,
Louisiana. He's a friend of mine.
Oh, no.
He's your real hero, people, not me.
Let's go. Come on, come on.
Move it, move it.
Move your asses. Okay, this is
where that rat-bastard lives.
You two shoot him low, you high.
I'll shoot him
right through his heart.
That's it. Come on, let's move it.
Kick it in! Kick it in!
What happened here?
- Don't I know you?
- What's going on?
Wait a minute.
You're that guy that had that
run-in with that psycho. Buffalo Bob.
Yeah. It was really no big deal.
No big deal! That's not what I heard.
Is Clem all right?
No, he's dead.
He's dead? What happened?
Your buddy Clem's real name
was Anthony Benedetti.
He was a former boss
He was in town here on the
Federal Witness Relocation program.
He turned informer when
the syndicate executed his wife.
His old cronies must have
somehow found he was here...
...and they came and killed him.
He killed all of them too.
It's a big mess.
Oh, my God, man. This is my fault.
Be cool, let me talk to him
for a second? He's a friend of mine.
- This is my fault.
- Go ahead.
I didn't know you didn't
want to be on TV.
I just tried to get the word out
about my parents. I'm so sorry.
Maybe you'll find your wife in heaven.
She'll be just how you remembered her.
Them big doe eyes.
That soft honey-blonde hair.
Smooth tan skin.
Huge, pert rack.
Long legs going up that tight butt.
Clem, you a**hole, are you alive?
They're pretending I'm dead,
so's they can move me.
I just didn't know you were in
this Witness Protection thing.
I never would have said
your name on TV, man.
I found it was time to move on anyway.
You know, maybe...
...find a better town.
There's something you
should think about.
I was thinking about that car.
The Rambler Wagon. That's a rare car.
People would remember
selling a car like that.
Where's that dead guy?
Wait. Joe, wait.
Take care, Joe Dirt.
Watch my hair.
Yep, those came with a 6-cylinder
Sleek-looking, weren't they?
For sure, man. How many?
That's what I'm trying to call up.
Let's see. In Louisiana...
...1968, we sold...
Doggy! 73 of those little buggers.
You tell me your daddy's name,
I'll tell you where he bought it.
I don't know his name.
That's what I'm trying to find out.
Well, then. The best I can do
is give you a printout...
...of all 73 people
who bought the car.
Later, if you come up with their
last name, you can go on from there.
I'm only doing all of this because
I heard that Buffalo Bob guy...
...shoved a road flare
up your bunghole.
What?
Hoorah.
I keep hearing about him. Nothing
happened with him. Nothing weird.
Anyway, that list had names
from all over the state.
But I was flat broke.
No money for gas.
So I found a job, and that led
to the biggest break in my case yet.
I don't know, Joe.
The way you describe that town
out in the northwest, Silvertown...
Hell, I have half a mind
to move there myself.
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure, honey. Shoot.
Your mom and dad still alive?
No.
Did they die?
One night...
...they got swallowed up by
the biggest gator we ever had.
Before they died...
...they killed that gator from
the inside by punching out his heart.
That's brutal.
The brutal part, later that night,
I took my mama's hedge clippers...
...and cut open that gator
and pulled my folks out of its belly.
I couldn't stand the thought of my
parents turning into alligator sh*t.
God, I hate these nasty things!
If I met the right man...
...I mean, hell, I'd just...
...shut this old gator farm
down and...
But you know, you probably don't want
to hear all my problems, huh?
The gator show's about to start.
I better go. It's showtime.
There's three things to remember
when dealing with a deadly alligator.
And they are deadly.
Don't kid yourself.
Rule number one:
I'm number one.You hear that?
I like to kid around. Rule two, the
