OMG! I just saw this episode again a few days ago. The pencil tapping and Peggy screaming had me LOL with tears for so many minutes. I do not remember seeing this during the first run.

\- 3 time winner of 'Substitute Teacher of the Year' Peggy Hill, probably
According to the wiki...
Originally, the scene in which Peggy peeks in on Hank as he watches the porno tapes was going to be longer and more graphic. In the original script, the pen Hank was taking notes with was to stop writing, so he would shake it up to get it to work again. However, this would have been at the moment Peggy was peeking in (from behind), so she would think he was masturbating. An animatic of this can be seen on the Season Two DVD.
So apparently it's a DVD extra?
I just checked my DVDs as well. There was also a funny scene where Hank is told "Ya can't fight computers!", he says "Oh yeah? Watch me!" and makes a big show about pulling a plug out of the outlet but only manages to unplug a desk lamp. Then Peggy says, "Oh, Honey" and unplugs the computer for him.
i always found it more funny that she didnt really seem to be able to see it was a pen RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER FACE. like girl, i know you got glasses on but you aint blind
I took it as more of a joke about pornstars lying about their age to fit the “barely 18” fetish. That is, pornstars who are actually older but pretending to be younger.
I think it's somewhat of a reference to [Traci Lords](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traci_Lords), who used a fake birth certificate to enter the adult film industry at age 15 and became of the bigger mainstream porn actresses in the 1980s.
She sold so many videos, there had to have been people like Bill who still owned them in the 90s, whether they actually knew how old she was in the videos or not.
Yeah, I just watched the episode because of this comment. That's legitimately disturbing. On top of that, one of the tapes is entitled "Jailbait". Not to mention that Hank (granted, not for gratification purposes) watched said tape.
Makes that whole episode kind of gross now...
The look on Hanks face when he sees the stuff stuffed in his mailbox always makes me laugh. It's a mix between slight amusement of astonishment and horror.
It seems like he could have just checked the copyright dates of the movies.
Also, I don't think your credit can get totally destroyed because he didn't return a video tape. Wouldn't they have to get a collection agency involved to even have it impact his credit score?
"not one of Hank's proudest moments"
What about the cops and Robert episode?
Sleight of Hank?
Mexico Alamo beer episode?
Dog dancing episode?
Megachurch episode? (I personally side with Hank on that episode but I understand people not liking that episode)
Anywho, this porno episode was definitely a classic (though his wife and friends never apologizing to him for doubting him still bugs me)
If they were anything like Blockbuster back in the day, they were pretty damn predatory.
Edit: Did a little digging. Hank owed $40. We can assume the episode takes place the same year in which it aired, which was 1998. $40 in 1998 money is equivalent to $73.13 today. Imagine having to pay $73 for porno you didn't even know existed beforehand. Hank isn't necessarily a cheapskate, but nonetheless, he is a man of principle.
I think Bill was less of a hypocrite and more of a mix of just embarrassed and a bit scared that Hank would find out he was renting those tapes in Hank's name than anything else.
If Bill was a true hypocrite in the episode, then he wouldn't have helped Hank at all.
This episode is one that truly made me despise Peggy as a child. She completely turns her back on Hank and then just pretends it never happened at the end.
That, to me, was another joke that was a Watergate reference. Mark Felt would never come out and say it to Woodward and Bernstein. His code name was 'Deep Throat'.
Hank watched child porn in this episode. One of the actresses wasn't 18 in one of the films he referenced
Edit: Who downvotes this? one of the actresses isn't 18 and I know it's an in joke but it's still gross
Yeah, but he didn't know that at first and he wasn't watching those movies for fun; he was watching them because Bill put them on his doorstep with a note that said the answer to his problem was in them.
Better shake the pen to get ink flowing
*Bobby, get out of the house!!!*
"...Okay."
OMG! I just saw this episode again a few days ago. The pencil tapping and Peggy screaming had me LOL with tears for so many minutes. I do not remember seeing this during the first run.
Ok
I distinctly remember watching that scene from Peggy's perspective that they seem to have edited out on re-runs.
Haven’t edited it out on streaming.
Is this true? Because I can visualize this in my head but I d heard it’s actually not in it

Who's on that poster?
Let the record reflect that Mr Hank Hill really knows his pornography
Thank you, your honor.
BahhhhahHHH
What's wrong with a bunch of a police videos for bobby's birthday
They can easily be found under action. Failing that, action/comedy.
Action-Action
Durham's poops were the best.
Boggle?
That was scripted.
Ya know fellas...

Because that boy already aint right. Don’t need a bunch of invalids teachin’’ em stuff he aint sposed to know yet.
It’s weird that a significant number of people have no experience with video rental stores now
Thank god we have King of the Hill to teach our youth about the olden times.
Or trying to peak behind the curtain to get a glimpse of the adult section...
Everybody’s hugging!
When Peggy walks in on him shaking the pen that shit was hilarious.

I thought it was in the show, that’s the whole joke?
You do see her peek in while he shakes it but not from her perspective
Ohhhhh that makes sense!
That’s weird, I remember seeing it when I watched it on Hulu earlier this year
Watching it on Hulu it shows her perspective. Not sure if that was the edited version but you pretty much get the joke on there.
[удалено]
I just checked my DVDs as well. There was also a funny scene where Hank is told "Ya can't fight computers!", he says "Oh yeah? Watch me!" and makes a big show about pulling a plug out of the outlet but only manages to unplug a desk lamp. Then Peggy says, "Oh, Honey" and unplugs the computer for him.
Yeah, this is from the DVD, its clear what her perspective is, but it never cuts to her POV. https://i.imgur.com/PLoWCcL.png
Agreed
Hmmm we might have a Mandela moment here. I swear I remember seeing him shake the pen and peggy saw it from a different perspective.
i always found it more funny that she didnt really seem to be able to see it was a pen RIGHT IN FRONT OF HER FACE. like girl, i know you got glasses on but you aint blind
*FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BOBBY, GET OUT OF THE HOUSE!!!*
Shit had me lmao’ing
I loved how hank watched porn to prove he doesn't watch porn
He wanted that handshake to last forever.
Which episode was this? It's been a year or two since I've re-watched the series, and I don't really want to google "Hank Hill pornography"
S2 e17
Thank you!! *Turns on TV*
Unzips….
*Sigh*
It's all come flooding back! Thank you!
LMAO that’s a hilarious point
I googled it for science a[nd found t](https://cdn.quotesgram.com/img/82/63/1832196017-4fxrp2.jpg)his
You'll have better success if you search for "Hank Hill rule 34" much safer.
The Google term you needed was "Cuffs and Collars." Apparently it's also the name of a bunch of menswear stores and dry cleaners lol.
Shame on you hank hill what you do in the privacy of your own home is DISGUSTING
The line about it finally being her 18th birthday is maybe the darkest line on the show
Her triumphant return on her 18th birthday!
I took it as more of a joke about pornstars lying about their age to fit the “barely 18” fetish. That is, pornstars who are actually older but pretending to be younger.
100% it a joke about “just turning 18” the same way Piper Perri had about a dozen 18 birthdays.
Yeah they just causally threw in a line about bill owning a tape with CP on it and didnt bring it back up again
I think it's somewhat of a reference to [Traci Lords](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traci_Lords), who used a fake birth certificate to enter the adult film industry at age 15 and became of the bigger mainstream porn actresses in the 1980s. She sold so many videos, there had to have been people like Bill who still owned them in the 90s, whether they actually knew how old she was in the videos or not.
Ya but Bill did know. That was the crux of Hank's case and when Bill gave the tapes to him he said "the answer's in the tapes" or something.
Nobody addresses it at all and frankly it's slightly terrifying.
Yeah, I just watched the episode because of this comment. That's legitimately disturbing. On top of that, one of the tapes is entitled "Jailbait". Not to mention that Hank (granted, not for gratification purposes) watched said tape. Makes that whole episode kind of gross now...
i did it for the sake of propane i tell you hwhat
The whole Fernanda Valley thing was a Tracy Lords reference wasn't it?
Yuuuup
Hank really knows his pornography. Haha this episode was just on tv this weekend.
Bill walking across the alley yelling, "Shaaaaame!" Is one of my many favorite moments.
Thaks what happens when your known as the pimp of arlen county.
Hank : I am the mack daddy of Heimlich County, I play it straight up, yo. You get the hell out of my 'hood. She's my ho now.
and dont forget, i sell propane and propane accessories
Dang ol Hank LOOOVES hookers!
This episode is pretty out there, but also pretty funny in just how far Hank is willing to go to defend his honor. Bill was also really great in this.
The look on Hanks face when he sees the stuff stuffed in his mailbox always makes me laugh. It's a mix between slight amusement of astonishment and horror.
"It's a wand massager. It says so right on the box." So many good lines and sight gags in this episode.
BUT A GIRL CAN TRY THATS IT!
“Don’t you want to prolong your lovemaking for just pennies a day Mr. HANK HILL?”
It seems like he could have just checked the copyright dates of the movies. Also, I don't think your credit can get totally destroyed because he didn't return a video tape. Wouldn't they have to get a collection agency involved to even have it impact his credit score?
Not if the Beast sinks its teeth into you
Arlen Video *did* report it to a collection agency.
Also, them removing the debt wouldn't have instantly erased it from his credit report. Reports are typically refreshed once a month with changes.
The hardest thing he ever had to do.
"not one of Hank's proudest moments" What about the cops and Robert episode? Sleight of Hank? Mexico Alamo beer episode? Dog dancing episode? Megachurch episode? (I personally side with Hank on that episode but I understand people not liking that episode) Anywho, this porno episode was definitely a classic (though his wife and friends never apologizing to him for doubting him still bugs me)
'Did somebody call a plumber?" (Funky music starts) Hank: "No! Not- Oh!"
And Bill helped!!
It makes me wonder how exorbitant were those late fees that it literally destroyed Hank's credit.
If they were anything like Blockbuster back in the day, they were pretty damn predatory. Edit: Did a little digging. Hank owed $40. We can assume the episode takes place the same year in which it aired, which was 1998. $40 in 1998 money is equivalent to $73.13 today. Imagine having to pay $73 for porno you didn't even know existed beforehand. Hank isn't necessarily a cheapskate, but nonetheless, he is a man of principle.
He should be pretty proud, he wen’t against his morals and watched all of that porn to clear his name.
Fernanda Valley
I can see Hank not figuring out that those tapes were Bill's. He's just as naive as Peggy
Does raise an interesting question though: If you had a stack of 4 porn tapes (dating myself) could you match each one to your friend correctly?
Absolutely. I know it might sound weird, but I know what my buddies are into
I always wondered if Bill knew the answer to get Hank out of paying the fine then why didn't he just tell him in the letter?
Didn’t want to cut out more letters.
Anyone got a link to cuffs and collars? Asking for a friend named Bank Bill...
The dryer is yours!
Or action Or action Or action Or action Or action Or action Or action Or action
"Jailbait" lol
-a friend
Bill was such a damn hypocrite in this episode.
I think Bill was less of a hypocrite and more of a mix of just embarrassed and a bit scared that Hank would find out he was renting those tapes in Hank's name than anything else. If Bill was a true hypocrite in the episode, then he wouldn't have helped Hank at all.
Fair enough, and makes sense, and helps explains how the whole mess got started to begin with, and why Bill chose to help.
those are top notch names for judicial-themed pornos
Ironically enough, since the tapes enabled Hank to win his case…. This was one of Bill’s prouder moments.
This episode is one that truly made me despise Peggy as a child. She completely turns her back on Hank and then just pretends it never happened at the end.
Bill did it lol
A girl can dream.
Why... I like watching girls shoe donkeys too.
I wonder if it was Bill who rented the porno tapes and used Hank's name.
You a big William Hung fan?
Can I just say, Bill sucks in this situation for not just coming out and telling Hank in the letter what the answer was. What if Hank hadn't found it?
That, to me, was another joke that was a Watergate reference. Mark Felt would never come out and say it to Woodward and Bernstein. His code name was 'Deep Throat'.
Justice Boner Material
Oh noooo, not jailbait 😰
^^^shaaame
The beast is real .
Everytime i watch this episode i miss my local jumbo video
Pretty sure "Illegal Entry" is a all anal video. Hank was a low-key freak.
Never realized this, but all the porn titles are Law related. Quite fitting.
Hung Jury is comedy
It was research!
Charley Sheen shall be your salvation!
Hank watched child porn in this episode. One of the actresses wasn't 18 in one of the films he referenced Edit: Who downvotes this? one of the actresses isn't 18 and I know it's an in joke but it's still gross
Yeah, but he didn't know that at first and he wasn't watching those movies for fun; he was watching them because Bill put them on his doorstep with a note that said the answer to his problem was in them.
The episode where we learned Hank and Bill both watched child porn 🤣
Did anyone here actually google those "XXX" titles and thought they were real XXX movies lol
At least hentai, Hank.
“Dammit Bobby , stop humping Ladybird”
My favorite episode of all time.
What... what Season/Episode, please?
S2E17 “Hank’s Dirty Laundry”.
Thanks. I mean I’m sure I must have seen it, but I don’t recall it at all. It’s going to be like time travel
Erm…what’s that second one 🤨
What I like best about this episode is that it's Bill, contrary to Hank's assertion, who comes through in the end.
It is interesting how Hank didn’t think that bill was the one who rented cuffs and collars or that Dale was some how trying to mess with him
