"The
Incredible Hank"
Episode KH804
Original Airdate: 11/23/03
An increasingly irritable Hank takes Bobby to the doctor to check
his testosterone levels after learning Bobby is failing P.E. Hank
is annoyed, however when the doctor suggests that Hank may be suffering
from irritable male syndrome and may require testosterone himself,
while Bobby is completely healthy.
Unwilling to accept the doctor’s suggestion, a furious Hank
leaves the hospital, while Peggy stays behind and retrieves the prescription
the doctor has written for Hank. Unable to deal with Hank’s
moodiness, Peggy secretly begins doping Hank and he quickly becomes
a new person. This newfound energy causes Hank to take an interest
in the “Viva Los Arlentinos Day” planning committee which
Peggy is a part of and he signs himself up for Arlen’s running
of the bulls.
Meanwhile, Bobby admits the reason he was failing P.E. is because
he refused to shower with the other boys, but with new Hank’s
encouragement, Bobby promises to give it another try. Thrilled at
Hank’s new attitude, Peggy ups the testosterone she is administering
until Hank becomes overly aggressive, challenging the guys to wrestling
matches in the alley, while developing acne like a teenager. Worried
that it’s gone too far, Peggy confesses what she’s done.
Hank is angry, but determined to run with the bulls without the testosterone
and face his fears, just like Bobby did when he showered in gym class
even though he didn’t want to.
Bobby admits he never actually showered, but Hank runs with the bulls
anyway to prove that not everyone in the Hill family is a liar.
