>> Sheriff: EARLY?

>> Early: FINALLY!

A LAWN JOCKEY THAT'S A SQUID.

I'M SO DAMN TIRED OF LAWN

JOCKEYS BEING JUST BLACKS AND

GNOMES.

D.C.'s GOT ITS HEAD UP ITS ASS

WITH ALL THEM

AFFIRMATIVE-ACTION GNOME QUOTAS.

>> Sheriff: NO, EARLY, THAT

AIN'T A LAWN JOCKEY.

THAT'S YOU WHEN YOU WAS JUST A

YOUNG MAN.

AND LOOK -- THERE'S MY DADDY,

STANDING RIGHT ALONGSIDE YOU.

IT'S A STATUE TO COMMEMORATE

THE INTEGRATION OF THE

DOUGAL COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM.

>> WASN'T THE SCHOOL INTEGRATED

BACK IN THE EARLY '60s?

>> Sheriff: WELL, SURE IT WAS,

FOR BLACKS AND WHITES, BUT NOT

FOR CRITTERS. [ CLEARS THROAT ]

NO OFFENSE.

MY DADDY CHANGED ALL THAT,

THOUGH.

YEP, ANIMALS AND PEOPLE

ATTENDING SCHOOLS TOGETHER.

>> THERE YA GO.

>> Early: LIKE THIS, DADDY?

YOU LIKE THIS, SHERIFF?

>> HARDER! CRAZIER!

>> Early: IS THIS GOOD?

AM I DOIN' IT RIGHT?

>> WHAT'S DOIN', HEZEKIAH RAY?

>> MY BOY JUST DONE A FANCY

MOUNTAIN DANCE IN YOUR FIELD OF

VISION, AND YOU WAS CLEARLY

ENTERTAINED.

NOW YOU OWE ME 25 CENT, OR MAY

GOD TAKE BOTH YOUR EYEBALLS.

>> OKEYDOKE.

>> NOW THAT'S A FINE DANCE

THERE, EARLY.

HERE, WHY DON'T YOU GO GET

YOURSELF A POP? >> QUICK, BOY!

HE'S LOOKING AT YA! DANCE IT UP AGAIN!

HA HA! YEAH!

YOU DONE LOOKED AGAIN!

PEEL OFF ANOTHER QUARTER DOLLAR,

YOU DUMB-AS-A-STUMP SON OF A

BITCH!

>> OKAY. I'M NOT LOOKING NOW.

JUST GRAB THE COIN OUT OF MY

HAND.

Y'ALL HAVE A GOOD DAY NOW.

>> Early: IS THIS GOOD?

>> CLEAR THAT QUARTER, BITCH!

>> Sheriff: HEY, DADDY,

KNOCK KNOCK? >> WHO'S THERE?

>> Sheriff: SQUID.

>> [ CHUCKLES ] SQUID WHO?

>> Sheriff: ME DUMB SQUID,

SLANTY EYES.

ME MAKE POO POO ON YOUR FRIES!

>> SHARIF!

YOU SUBSTITUTED SQUIDS IN MY

FAVORITE JOKE ABOUT ASIANS.

WHY?

>> Sheriff: BECAUSE SQUISHERS

ARE DIRTY AND POOR, AND THEY

STEAL STUFF AND THEY EAT MUD,

AND I HATE THEM DUMB CEPHALOS.

>> LOOK, SON, THOSE SQUIDS ARE

JUST LIKE US ON THE INSIDE,

EXCEPT THEY HAVE INK SACS.

AND THEY HAVE EIGHT LEGS.

AND THEY, UH -- THEY DO EAT MUD.

NO, THEY'RE NOTHING LIKE US.

>> SEE WHAT I'M DOING HERE?

NOW YOU SEEN MY MOUNTAIN DANCE,

SO NOW YOU OWE ME THE MONEY,

BOY.

>> Early: AW, DAMN.

>> YOU STAY HERE AND DON'T STOP

DANCING.

I'M GOING DOWN TO GET MY DINNER

LIQUOR.

>> Sheriff: BACK THEN, THERE WAS

A LOT OF PREJUDICE AGAINST

AQUATIC-AMERICANS.

YOU REMEMBER HOW DRUNK FOLKS

USED TO THROW Y'ALL FOR

AMUSEMENT?

>> Early: AND FOR CASH DAMN

MONEY ON THE BARREL HEAD.

THEM WAS THE GOOD OLD DAYS, BACK

BEFORE THE SOUTH BECAME SUCH A

PUSSY.

>> Sheriff: YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES

PEOPLE WOULD THROW Y'ALL AND

THEY WOULDN'T EVEN PAY NOTHIN'.

>> I'LL INVOICE YOU!

>> Sheriff: THEY'D TOSS YOU

INTO A FIRE... >> IT BURNS!

>> Sheriff: ...BARBED-WIRE

FENCE... >> THIS SUCKS.

>> Sheriff: SOMETIMES THEY'D PAY

YOUR DADDY IN PENNIES.

THEY'D WHIP 'EM AT HIS FACE AS

HARD AS THEY COULD, ONE AFTER

THE OTHER.

>> YOU'RE STILL 10 CENTS SHORT.

BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR LOYALTY TO

MY WEIRD BUSINESS.

>> Early: THEN THE P.C. POLICE

COME ALONG AND DENIED US A

WORKING WAGE.

HELL, ITS GOT TO THE POINT WHERE

YOU CAN'T LET NO-DAMN-BODY TOSS

YOU INTO A WOOD CHIPPER.

MY BODY, MY DECISION!

>> Sheriff: LOOK, I AIN'T SAYING

IT'S RIGHT, BUT FOLKS WOULD BUY

INTO THE STEREOTYPES ABOUT

SQUIDS BACK THEN.

>> Early: LIKE THE FACT THAT WE

CAN SUCK THE DISEASE OUT OF A

MAN WITH OUR ARM SUCKERS?

>> Sheriff: HADN'T MOST OF

THAT'S BEEN DISPROVED OVER TIME?

>> Early: OH, LISTEN TO OLD

TWO-PACKS-A-DAY HERE.

DON'T YOU COME BLUBBERING TO ME

WHEN THEY FIND A SPOT ON YOUR

X-RAY.

>> Sheriff: EARLY, MY POINT IS

THAT EVERYBODY ELSE WROTE Y'ALL

SQUIDS OFF, BUT MY DADDY SAW

MORE IN YOU.

>> ALL I'M SAYIN' IS, THERE'S A

BETTER FUTURE FOR YOUR BOY THAN

STANDING ON A STREET CORNER ALL

NIGHT DOING A CRAZY MOUNTAIN JIG

FOR STRANGERS.

>> NAME ONE.

>> WELL, HE COULD GO TO SCHOOL,

LEARN A TRADE.

>> YOU WANT TO SEND HIM TO THE

SPACE MOON AND BE A SPACE

ASTRONAUT?

>> Granny: YOU CAN SEND HIM

STRAIGHT TO THE SUN FOR ALL I

CARE!

>> WELL, I WAS THINKING

APPLIANCE REPAIR --

>> SCHOOL AIN'T NOT NEVER AIN'T

GONNA PUT NO NOT FOOD IN HIS

BELLY DON'T NEVER!

>> SURE IT WILL.

WE GOT A FREE SCHOOL LUNCH

PROGRAM FOR FOLKS LIKE Y'ALL.

WELL, THEY'LL SEND A BUS OUT

HERE TO PICK HIM UP.

>> SO YOU'RE GONNA TAKE HIM AWAY

FROM ME AND HIS GRANDMAMA, WHO

MAY OR MAY NOT BE ALSO MY WIFE?

>> Granny: LIKE FREE BABYSITTING

AND SOMEONE ELSE IS THE MOM?

>> WELL, THE TAXPAYERS FOOT THE

BILL, BUT, YEAH, IT -- IT'S FREE

TO YOU. >> Granny: YEAH!

SEND HIS ASS TO SCHOOL!

>> YOU AIN'T EVEN GOT TO PAY FOR

THIS DANCE.

IT'S ON THE HOUSE.

>> Sheriff: BUT DADDY STILL HAD

TO CONVINCE THE DOUGAL COUNTY

SCHOOL BOARD TO LET Y'ALL IN,

AND BACK THEN, THAT WAS A PRETTY

TALL ORDER.

>> MARINE LIFE AIN'T OUGHT TO BE

CO-MINGLE-TATING WITH OUR KIND.

>> NOW HANG ON JUST A SECOND.

NOW, I KNOW THESE SQUID LOOK

STUPID AND SMELL BAD AND WE HATE

'EM, BUT THEY'RE NOT DUMB

BEASTS. >> WHOO!

>> Granny: YAY!

>> THERE YOU GO.

>> I MEAN, THEY'RE NOT SMART, BY

ANY STRETCH, EITHER, BUT WITH

SOME TRAINING AND EDUCATION,

WELL, ONE DAY THEY COULD LEARN

TO PUMP OUR GAS OR MAYBE EVEN

WORK A PAINTBRUSH.

>> IT'S FREE TO THROW THE OLD

ONE, BECAUSE I DON'T LOVE HER NO

MORE.

>> Granny: IT'S FREE TO THROW

YOU! >> IT'S FREE TO THROW YOU,

BITCH! I'LL WRING YOUR NECK!

>> ALL RIGHT! QUIET!

THERE AIN'T GONNA BE NO

SUB-SNATCHING, GREEN-SKINNED

FREAKS IN DOUGAL COUNTY SCHOOLS!

NO, SIR!

NOT ON MY WATCH!

>> Sheriff: TURNS OUT, HIS WATCH

WASN'T VERY LONG.

HE CAME DOWN WITH THE LUNG

CANCER, AND CONVENTIONAL

MEDICINE JUST REALLY COULDN'T DO

MUCH FOR HIM.

>> [ WHEEZES ]

I HEAR THAT Y'ALL SQUIDS CAN

SUCK THE CANCER CLEAN OUT OF A

MAN.

>> THAT'S VERY TRUE.

COME ON IN HERE AND TAKE YOUR

CLOTHES OFF.

>> [ GROANING ]

>> ALL RIGHT, THERE YOU GO.

I THINK WE GOT IT ALL.

>> THAT'S IT?

I'M CURED?

>> YOU IN FULL OMISSION.

>> PRAISE GOD IN HEAVEN ABOVE!

I'LL TELL YOU, THE THINGS I SAID

ABOUT Y'ALL ALMOST MAKES ME FEEL

BAD IN SOME WAY.

> Early: SO I GET TO GO TO THE

HUMAN SCHOOL NOW?

>> NO, NO, NO.

GOD, NO.

MY KIDS GO TO THAT SCHOOL.

>> HOW ABOUT US TAKE A QUARTER

AND CALL IT EVEN?

>> WILL YOU TAKE IT IN NICKELS?

>> WE TAKE NICKELS, YEAH.

OH!

>> [ LAUGHING ]

I GOT A NEW LEASE ON LIFE!

[ LAUGHS ]

>> Sheriff: THE CHAIRMAN DIED

TWO DAYS LATER OF LUNG CANCER.

BUT DADDY, HE WENT AHEAD AND

FORGED THE CHAIRMAN'S SIGNATURE

ON THE DOCUMENT THAT SAID YOU

COULD ATTEND SCHOOL.

>> Sheriff: AS LONG AS I'LL

LIVE, I'LL NEVER FORGET THE

SIGHT ON THAT HISTORIC DAY.

>> Sheriff: BLACKS AND WHITES

WORKING IN UNITY TO HATE YOU AND

KEEP YOU OUT OF THEIR SCHOOL.

>> Granny: DON'T LET HIM IN!

>> GO BACK TO ATLANTIS, YOU

SQUISHY SUB-SNATCHER!

>> YOU READY TO MAKE HISTORY?

HAVE A GOOD DAY AT SCHOOL NOW.

>> Sheriff: DADDY PUT IT ALL ON

THE LINE FOR YOU THAT DAY...

AND YOU MADE HIM LOOK PRETTY

DAMN STUPID WHEN YOU UP AND QUIT

10 MINUTES LATER.

>> Early: HELL WITH THAT MESS!

>> EARLY, WHERE THE HELL YOU

GOIN'?!

GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE!

>> Early: BUT WASN'T IT THE

GREAT ABRAHAM LINCOLN WHO SAID,

"BEWARE OF SCHOOLS.

THEY RUN BY JEWS"?

>> Sheriff: WELL, EARLY, HE SAID

IT, BUT YOU'RE TAKING HIS MOST

FAMOUS WORDS OUT OF CONTEXT.

>> Early: SHERIFF, LOOK AT THAT

SHINY TRUCK I GOT.

NOW SMELL MY FINGER.

>> Sheriff: [ SNIFFS ] >> Early: [ CHUCKLES ]

I'VE HAD SUCCESS IN THIS LIFE.

I DON'T NEED NO DAMN STATE

SCHOOLS TO TELL ME HOW TO MAKE

IT HAPPEN FOR ME AND MINE.

>> Sheriff: WELL, BE THAT AS IT

MAY, WE'RE DEDICATING THAT

STATUE TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

AND I SURE HOPE YOU'LL BE...

THERE.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

MY DADDY HAD A DREAM -- A BOLD

DREAM.

BUT WHEN NASCAR TOLD HIM THEY

WEREN'T GOING TO HAVE

CHEERLEADERS, ESPECIALLY NOT

MALE ONES, HE PUT THAT DREAM TO

BED AND MOVED HERE TO

DOUGAL COUNTY TO BECOME A

LAWMAN, AND HE SAW TO IT THAT

NOT JUST MEN OF ALL COLORS COULD

GO TO SCHOOL BUT ANIMALS, TOO.

CREATURES OF THE SEA.

WE NOW KNOW THIS TO BE A

MISTAKE.

GUESS WE JUST WEREN'T READY BACK

THEN.

WAS DADDY TOO PROGRESSIVE FOR

HIS TIME?

MAYBE.

BUT HE STOOD UP TO INJUSTICE.

WHEN SOMEONE IN POWER TRIED TO

STOP HIM, HE WOULD PRETEND TO

AGREE WITH THEM, THEN WAIT FOR

THEM TO DIE, AND FIND A WAY TO

WORK AROUND THEM.

[ APPLAUSE ]

AND IF THE INSPIRATION FOR THIS

STATUE WAS HERE TODAY --

>> Early: I AM HERE TODAY.

>> Sheriff: ACTUALLY, EARLY, I

WAS TALKIN' ABOUT MY DADDY --

>> Early: I HAVE SOME WORDS.

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

40 YEARS AGO, THE SHERIFF'S

DADDY WENT TO GREAT LENGTHS TO

GIVE ME THE CHANCE TO QUIT

SCHOOL.

AND BECAUSE OF MY SELFLESS,

HEROIC ACTIONS ON THAT DAY, MY

SON WAS ALSO ABLE TO QUIT

SCHOOL.

AND SOMEDAY, HIS ILLEGITIMATE

SON, BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK, WILL

ALSO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO

QUIT THIS VERY SAME GOVERNMENT

SCHOOL.

SCHOOL SUCKS!

[ CROWD GASPS ]

>> Sheriff: WHAT IN THE HELL?

>> Granny: SORRY. WE HAD TO MELT

DOWN YOUR DADDY TO GIVE EARLY

THE UPPER BODY MASS HE

REQUESTED.

>> Early: THIS IS HOW I WOULD'VE

LOOKED HAD I EXERCISED THE WAY I

HAD FULLY INTENDED TO.

I AM A MANY MUSCLED MAN!
