A new Strickland Propane employee revels in making off-color jokes, driving Hank crazy.
Plot[]
Travis, an old member of Strickland Propane, retires and a young man named Rich takes his place. Rich appears to be an aspiring employee to Hank, but it goes downhill when Rich tells a lewd comment to the others. Hank explains to Rich that his jokes are dirty and are not allowed in the workplace. Rich appears to understand, but keeps telling them and even throws in "That's What She Said" jokes. Hank explains to the others that the jokes are terrible and should not be told. Then, Buck Strickland arrives and as he is telling the others off, Rich cracks a joke and Buck goes into a laughing fit. Rich even grins evilly to Hank, who realizes Rich can say anything he wants without trouble. The jokes spread and anger Hank more as the jokes and gags get dirtier each time. At home, Bobby talks with Hank after hearing his complaints and recommends using fake feces on Rich, which Bobby used to prank a bully at school. Hank warns Bobby that he will be no better than the bully if he stoops to their level.
The next day, Hank prepares to go a golf trip with Buck, but is shocked to discover Rich is going on the trip instead. After Rich cracks a joke, Hank threatens to beat Rich, but Buck stops him. Hank grows more annoyed when Rich posts an unflattering photo of Hank on the internet. Then Hank notices an ad to help with work problems and calls the number and meets with a lawyer, Madelline Borginnis, who advises him to file for sexual harassment. Hank refuses, but after a prank phone call from Rich, he quickly accepts. He explains it to Peggy who happily encourages him. The next day, Rich creates "Ass Tag" and runs around spanking people and covering up Enrique's wife's face with a monkey face on his wedding picture. Hank overhears Enrique calling his wife and discovers Enrique hates the jokes too. Hank tries to help him, but Enrique worriedly refuses.
Then, Joe Jack begins choking and cannot get up of fear of getting hit by Rich and is given a can with urine in it. Then, a man arrives with a clogged propane tank and Rich cracks a joke, disgusting the man who leaves after yelling at Hank. Hank shows everyone what they have become from the jokes and gives Jo-Jack water. Rich quickly spanks Hank who shoves Rich into the bathroom and threatens to wash out his mouth. Buck arrives and Rich runs behind him. Hank explains that Rich's "jokes" are awful and Hank threatens to quit. Buck evaluates Hank and the other employees' opinions of Rich and, after seeing himself outnumbered, quickly changes his tune, admonishing Rich for his immature behavior and firing him over it.
Meanwhile, after a bed fire, Dale quits smoking and takes up chew. Dale gets tobacco spit everywhere and disgusts the guys. Then, Dale nearly passes out from performing only a small amount of jumping jacks. Now reduced to inhaling the scent through a paper, Dale is delighted when Boomhauer sets the tobacco alight in the cone, thus creating a makeshift cigarette.
