My Name is Earl Recap: The Trial
Way back in Very Bad Things, Joy stole a truck (it also turned out that the guy died, as recounted in Kept a Guy Locked in a Truck, but it started at the beginning of the season). It also turns out that the offense would be Joy's third, which is why she's trying to get out of it. Her third strike means that she goes away for a long time, which she doesn't want to do. It also means she's running from the law, like The Dukes of Hazzard, which means we get to hear that classic, and the fact that she's running also means we get a bonus appearance from Dog the Bounty Hunter, and strangely that fact isn't mentioned. But I digress.
Crab Man is having a tough time - but it's tough to tell if it's with the kids, or because the kids appear to be taping Mr. Turtle to various surfaces of the trailer where he doesn't seem to want to be taped. Randy is also having issues, but then Randy always has issues, and it's not really a problem. Mostly it is because Earl is now trying to make something of himself, and Randy isn't sure how he'll be left to fend for himself. I suspect that he'll be just fine.
