Plot Overview

With Kahn left alone for a few weeks, Hank is asked to keep him company. They hit it off surprisingly well, especially when Kahn comes up with an idea for a grand grill for this year's Grillstravaganza. However, things get unbalanced when Hank talks Kahn into ignoring a subscription refill, unaware that it's to treat his manic-depression.

Meanwhile, Bobby tries to figure out why an old comedy record is so funny.

Trivia

Behind the Scenes

• This is one of four episodes that were produced for the season, but FOX decided not to air. It premiered in syndication on May 6, 2010, followed two weeks later by its Adult Swim broadcast of May 20.

Goofs

• Kahn is on laying on the couch and turns over. When it cuts away and the back to him, he suddenly has a green blanket around his waist that wasn't there before.

Quotes

• Joseph: (pulls out a vinyl record) Dude, the computer this goes in must be huge.

• Hank: We call it the Commander-in-Beef. It's the Swiss Army knife of grills, but made by a country that's not afraid to fight a war.

• Hank: Boy, I'm telling you, it's like somebody took Kahn and replaced him with an actual human being.

Dale: You're talking about Kahn? Our neighbour Kahn?

Hank: Yes, he is a completely different person. And in one day, my liking of him went up from not very much to somewhat.

• Dale: Hank, you said Kahn had energy, but wow!

Bill: He's accomplished more in ten seconds than I have in a year.

• Dale: That Kahn's a ball of energy. Last night we popped some corn and solved the JFK assassination. And Lincoln. We're halfway through McKinley.

• Hank: Uh, maybe he's just sad.

Dale: Nope. He's been swallowed whole by soul-sucking depression.

Bill: Yep. He reminds me of me when I was just starting out. (to Kahn) You've got a long way to go.

• Bill: I just wish this was a movie. Some music would play and we would just cut to when we were all finished.

• Hank: I wonder how many pills Kahn should take. Maybe to be on the safe side he should take them all.
