Hank's Back Story

Episode Number: 103    Season Num: 5    First Aired: Sunday May 6, 2001    Prod Code: 5ABE17
While preparing for the big lawn mower races in Durndle, Hank experiences back trouble. When he goes to the doctor, he is told that he has a genetic disorder called Diminished Gluteal Syndrome (DGS), meaning that he has such a small rear end that it puts added stress on his spine. The doctor gives Hank a prosthetic butt to wear, but the shame of it is too much until Peggy gets him to go to a DGS support meeting.

Quotes

Dale: Keep talking, bubble butt!
Bill: I wasn't saying anything.
Dale: Not you, I was talking to Hank. (edit)
Peggy: You have one butt cheek slightly larger than the other, just like my feet.
Hank: Yeah, we're made for each other. (edit)
Dr. Tate: Mr. Hill, you have a compression of the discs in your lower back.
Hank: Uh-huh. Do you get a lot of this in your patients who race mowers?
Dr. Tate: A lawnmower didn't cause this. It's genetic.
Peggy: Genetic as in fatal?
Dr. Tate: No. Mr. Hill, you were born with no muscle mass here, no cushioning. For years you've basically been sitting on your spine. You suffer from a disease called Diminished Gluteal Syndrome, or DGS.
Hank: I don't understand. What does that mean?
Dr. Tate: Mr. Hill, you have no ass. (edit)
Dale: What information have you brought me, Octavio?
Octavio: Bill is losing weight, jefe. He is eating only oranges and ham sandwiches.
Dale: Blast! We will still win, but we must train twice as hard. Octavio, release the chicken. (edit)
Cotton: Good Lord, Hank, you're wearin' butt-boobies!
Hank: It's not for my buttocks, it's for my back.
Cotton: Didi, put your fake ta-tas next to Hank's. We'll see who has the bigger melons! (edit)
