[BRIGHT TONE]

Ta-dah! Look who it is.

Oh, this m*therf*cker.

Children, do I got a doozy for you.

Baby Billy, what are you trying

to hit us up for now, man?

Lionel need gold baby
teeth or some sh*t?

Let me guess, this
time, you want a harem

full of professional
rub-and-tuggists from Thailand?

- [LAUGHS]
- Y'all just dirty.

What, you want to ask
permission to sell tickets

for people to dig up Mama's
grave and do pee on her?

- Oh, God.
- That ain't right.

Now all three y'all about to look like

a bunch of smiling dickheads
with the news I got.

What you got, Uncle Baby Billy?

I'm friends with Dusty Daniels,

the Slick Bandit himself.

I partied with his ass over in Monaco

after my second bankruptcy.

- ALL: Eight, seven, six...
- Gonna get us all, Y K!

ALL: Five, four, three, two, one!

- _
- [CHEERING]

[UPBEAT MUSIC]

That Y K sh*t didn't happen,

so we partied our dicks off that night.

Me, and Dusty Daniels, and Gene Hackman

lost our f*cking minds, man.

The actor Gene Hackman?

Well, it was either him
or some unfortunate fella

who looked just like him.

Gene, Gene, Gene!

It's Gene f*cking Hackman! Whoo!

We went hard, everybody talking

about the end of the world.

Felt like God was
giving us a second sh*t.

- Get it, Gene!
- Get it, Gene!

So we took some sh*ts,
a whole bunch of 'em.

Wait, hold up. Did
you f*ck Dusty Daniels?

We threw caution to the wind, boy.

So y'all for sure touched dicks.

Well, we might have touched dicks.

Look, that ain't the
important part of the story.

I put in a good word
for y'all with Dusty.

Now he's getting bored
with the Simkins crew.

Says they whine too much
about their dead parents.

I think that door might
still be open for you now.

Okay, I'll bite.

What do we have to do to get him back?

Well, you know how old Dusty
likes himself a competition.

So it seemed like the
best bet would be for y'all

to prove your worth
by going head to head

with the Simkins family

on the premier episode of
"Baby Billy's Bible Bonkers."

- Oh, God.
- Ha, the winner gets Dusty!

Imagine that, two
famous Christian families

just duking it out for Dusty.

Come on, again with this
"Bible Bonkers" bullshit?

Give it up.

If you want Dusty back,

green light my f*cking show.

Pew, pew.

Whoo-whee, sucker.

Well, I gotta use their

There's maybe... I don't know...

Right there, bucks right there.

bucks won't even get
us half a t*nk of gas.

Well, that's half a t*nk more

than we got right now, smart guy.

All we gotta do is get to the Gemstones.

You need to learn the value of a dollar.

- Have fun.
- Come on.

Let's go do the Coinstar together, huh?

Maybe get you a candy bar,

depending on how much
we got left, but...

You do the coins. I
don't need a candy bar.

I'll stand watch.

All right.

I appreciate you, Chuck.

You're a good boy,
standing up with your pa

You know, you're all I've got left.

Peter Montgomery, ,

had rented the truck with the b*mb.

It's still unknown whether he
escaped or d*ed in the blast.

We will continue to follow
this story as it develops.

How come they ain't said
nothing about Chuck, Mama?

Why do you think?

'Cause there ain't nothing left of him.

- Oh, don't say that.
- Let's stay positive.

Chuck, poor, poor Chuck.

[SOBBING]

Daddy.

Psst, Daddy.

Remember how we were talking about how

we were doing "Bible Bonkers"?

We need to get two more
members to round out our team.

We were hoping to get some ringers.

We were thinking, maybe you
be one of our team members,

maybe, you know, Big
Karl or Aunt May-May.

What the hell is he talking about?

Baby, maybe out of respect
for Chuck, we just...

Oh, no, that's the thing, though, Amber,

was we were gonna ask Chuck
'cause he is a huge Bible nerd,

but it's like, obviously, now...

So now we have to settle
for Karl or May-May.

- Still good choices.
- That's enough.

Hey, y'all, let's do
it for Chuck, you know?

If he's dead like the news is making it

really, really seem like he is,

he would want us to win Dusty back.

He would.

- My son!
- Mama?

We could do an in memorandums title card

in the credits for him.

- In memorials.
- It's "in memoriam."

- The memoriams?
- Dad, that would be sick.

To Chuck.

Oh, looky here.

Boys, boys, boys, are we doing chuckles?

Simkins, I really hope
you've enjoyed your time

with the Slick Bandit.

We'll see where old Dusty
lands after my family

whips your family's

Better hush that cussing, Jesse,

lest ye want another white slap.

Don't you know who you
are up against, Jesse?

Vance here knows the entire
New Testament by heart.

His biblical knowledge runs deep.

Hell, my family's biblical
knowledge runs deep too.

Your family don't stand a chance, Jesse.

We're gonna humiliate
you on "Bible Bonkers"

on your own network.

Let all your followers see how far

the mighty Gemstone empire has fallen.

They're all gonna leave you.
Even God will forsake you.

- Son of a bitch.
- [BELL RINGS]

No acts of v*olence will be
tolerated in the chambers.

A black slap will be administered if so.

Wasn't what I expected.

Homie's a damn militia leader.

I don't know what sort
of daddy/son lessons

you were hoping to snag from that.

That's easy for you to say.

You got your daddy around,

Barely, I mean, yeah, sure,
he gave us our houses, and,

you know, fancy stuff, and the church,

but that's f*cking all.

That other stuff is a lot.

Well, I'd trade every bit of it

if he'd just act like he was
proud of me every now and then

instead of always looking at me

like he's half-ass embarrassed.

An old man looking at you like
that your whole entire life,

I'd say that's worse than
having no daddy at all.

I guess we do have that in common.

Look to our daddies for guidance.

But we're grown. It's up to us now.

You promise not to betray my family

then I will forgive you.

Just know that if you
go back on your promise,

then I will k*ll you, and it'll be fair,

and there'll be nothing
you can say about it.

- How would you k*ll me?
- I don't know.

Maybe sh**t you.

I can s*ab you, cut you up,

chop your little body into pieces.

Maybe radiation poisoning.
Anything I desire.

You won't see it coming,
but you will be dead.

It won't matter anyway.
I'll never betray you again.

- Or do kidnappings?
- Or do kidnappings.

Cool cousins again?

Cool cousins.

Please, dear heavenly
Father, give us the strength,

You've always dreamt of
being a game show host?

me as a mentor figure.

It's no mystery that y'all
are basically orphans.

I mean, your mama's dead,
your daddy's out to lunch,

but who stepped up?

Me, I had to step up,
and I had to guide you,

and counsel you, and hold you.

Well, I feel like I'm your daddy.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

You didn't do any of
those things you just said.

I've done all of it.
I am all y'all's daddy.

- You're not my daddy.

- Now, I'm your daddy.

Friends, we are here today

to say goodbye to a wonderful man,

a true legend,

NASCAR's own Dusty Daniels.

People knew him as the Slick Bandit.

He lived big,

drove fast,

and spoke from the heart.

Our family was lucky enough

to get close to Dusty.

Before he passed away
peacefully in his sleep,

he entrusted his estate to us,

and we couldn't be happier

to put his money to
good use in his name.

He will be missed

but not forgotten.

doing better than ever.

Trust me, I did not think

the System would be any good at all.

Here we are again,

parked outside of another shop of sin.

God's work is never done.

Should we wait for the other
Smut Busters to get here,

or just do, like, a
test run, me and you?

Yeah, let them know we are watching,

judging their lifestyle,

you know, what they
do in their spare time.

Yeah, like,

judge what people do in their bedrooms,

- behind closed doors.
- Yeah.

Yeah.

Or...

we could just let this one go.

Let it go?

Yeah, like, maybe there are
other ways to serve the Lord.

Maybe this is the kind of situation

where you live and let live, you know?

Live and let live, you say?

Yeah.

That was just an expression I made up

on the spot right there.

Popped to my head like magic.

Wow.

[MILITARISTIC MUSIC]

I look like an assh*le.

Your journey to becoming

a man worthy of the Gemstone name

begins today.

There comes a time in every kid's life

where he's gotta move
out of his parents' house,

strike out into the world on your own,

push yourself to achieve things
you never thought possible.

You didn't do that.

You literally live

on the same property as Granddad.

You know, there was a time
when I would've slapped the taste

out of your f*cking mouth
for saying that to me,

but not anymore,

because you're right.

I didn't earn it.

It was given to me.

I wonder who I would've been

if I would've had to work for it,

if I had to fight tooth
and nail to survive.

I'd like to think I could've done it,

but I'll never know.

I don't want that for you.

I'm fine with that
being how it goes for me.

Seriously, Dad.

You're gonna earn it.

You're gonna be a better
man than me when it's done.

It's my gift to you.

A gift?

You're making me go to a
f*cking m*llitary school.

I'm making sure you
learn how to fly, my son.

Come here.

I love you.

They're gonna eat his f*cking ass alive.

Now that you're all healed,

I take it you'll be leaving me

looking for a new driver.

Well, Granddad, if I
stayed and didn't leave...

You can drive for me
as long as you want,

but don't let it keep you
from following your calling.

Well, Grandad, that's the thing. Uh...

if I wanted to learn to do what you do,

would you teach me?

You wanna preach?

Yeah, I think I might.
