In this episode, Bobby finds a racoon hanging around his house, whom he names Bandit and keeps as a pet. The bandit causes havoc in the Hill house, and Hank calls upon Dale to exterminate it. To protect her "master", Hank's bloodhound Ladybird leaps to the rescue to take care of the racoon, but disappears, along with bandit.
As Hank desperately searches for his beloved bloodhound, he secretly breaks down in the garage. An emotional side to Hank we've never seen before. I can tell that he loves his wife and son, but he's always too embarrassed to show it. However he's not afraid to show his love for his dog because his dog has never judged him, or doubted him.
In pursuit of Bandit and Ladybird, Dale goes nuts and fends for himself in the woods. All in all, a solid episode with some very revealing moments.moreless
AIRED:
Bobby adopts a raccoon, Bandit, who bites Ladybird and Dale and then runs off, pursued by Ladybird. Fearing that Bandit might have been rabid, Hank tries to save his dog, while Bobby just wants to find Bandit. Meanwhile, Dale, convinced that he has rabies, runs off to the woods and starts living on mushrooms, which give him hallucinations.moreless

ALLUSIONS (3)
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Hank: You name a pet, you name a guitar, you do NOT name a raccoon!
Hank himself names his guitar. He refers to it as 'Betsy' in a previous episode, and treats it much better than his own child.

Young Frankenstein
When Dale asks Hank to cover up the hole after enters, and asks that he not remove it no matter what, then instantly pleads with him to remove literally moments afterward is a possible reference to a similar scene in the movie Young Frankenstein. -
This episode's title is a similar to the title of the book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.
