Storyline

Earl wants to make up for robbing everything in the house of a stoner. Earl and Randy find the stoner (Woody) now lives in an environmental conscious commune. Woody tells them it's very nice of them to offer to buy him back the stuff they stole, but he doesn't need it now that he lives in the commune. When Earl asks him how he can cross him off his list then, Woody suggests he and Randy come and live on the commune for a week and they agree. During the week, Randy starts to miss TV and real food and starts eating his own hand while Earl becomes so environmentally conscious he wants to help out and gets very frustrated when he finds out most people don't care about the environment.

Number #26

A heat wave reminds Earl of number twenty-six on his list: the guy he stole an air conditioner from. That guy turns out to be an old stoner played by Christian Slater whose long term use of weed has messed up his memory so he never even remembers the event. He's now living in a commune and invites Earl and Randy to stay a week and live like they do there before Earl can scratch him off the list.

The whole "global warming" issue gets a little bit heavy handed for a brief moment (are they going for their Humanitas prize?) but otherwise the episode is a riot. Highlights include a reenactment of a "Friends" episode (with the irrepressible Mike McGill as Chandler!), and Randy eating a mixture that causes him to hallucinate and see everyone in Claymation form.

Slater is good as the old stoner and the regular cast is in top form. The comedy is really hilarious though the writers still don't seem to know what to do with Catalina.
